The Trump administration doesn’t want a protectionist college system. They want a destroyed one … latest @theintercept.com theintercept.com/2025/05/30/r...

I think Trump is just lying about "civil unrest" but considering the possibility that someone showed him a photo or a video out of context made me also realize just how easy it would be for an advisor to manipulate him with AI generated content, which is not how you want your President to be.

So many moral panics over the years about “political violence” when it comes to punching a Nazi like Richard Spencer but pundits rarely call this kind of systemic state violence what it is: political violence!

"Roughly 1,500 babies have been born HIV-positive every day since January 21, because Musk cut off their mothers’ medication." prospect.org/power/2025-0...

As of today, Elon Musk is thought to be responsible for the death of 300,000 adults and kids due to the illegal closure of USAID (source: www.impactcounter.com/dashboard?vi...) That's a 103 deaths per hour, each day. And it will get worse. His legacy is one of death, destruction, and failure.

Let the leaking and backstabbing begin. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/u...

Has Tim Meadows been juicing?

Medicaid pays for 64% of births in Speaker Mike Johnson’s home state of Louisiana. Yet Republicans are trying to slash the program and take away health care from 14 million people — all to give a tax cut to billionaires.

These are the guys who want to take over our universities

Eh.

Elon's wealth isn't tied to how well Tesla does. It's tied to how well Elon stans *think* Tesla will do in the future.🤡 So vehicle sales can be down 50%, but stock price can be up. Eventually, the Piper gets paid, but "The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent."

Traditionally the Republican Party has used racism to lure in voters to support the agenda of capital, and now what you’re seeing is the agenda of capital being overtaken by the racism.

There were a bunch of tells that the HHS report on trans care also used AI but the credulous press bought it because they hate trans people. Now it's a problem because the hackery is focused on cis people.

Scoop: Texas police used Flock's license plate cameras to search *nationwide* for a woman who had a self-managed abortion. Claim it was "about her safety" www.404media.co/a-texas-cop-...

#TeslaTakedown should put this on a sign. Elon Musk murdered 300,000 children.

My only comment on the Greenwald sex tape... clip.cafe/zack-miri-ma...

If attempted, this would constitute flagrant violations of the Privacy Act of 1974 www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/t...

Thank you to @michellegoldberg.bsky.social for just telling the truth about #ElonMusk. The rest of the media should hang their heads in shame with the fawning, irrelevant pieces they ran yesterday. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

A junkie unmoored from reality destroyed our govt: "The drug has psychedelic properties and can cause dissociation from reality. Chronic use can lead to addiction and problems with bladder pain...Mr. Musk told people that his ketamine use was causing bladder issues" www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/u...

So they're actually just remaking Harry Potter? Is that what this shit is?

Unreal. "Under the plea agreement which dismissed the felony charge of grand theft, former Glenn County sheriff's deputy John Sanzone agreed to return the $3,500 he stole from a homeless man who had been saving it for badly needed dental work."

On Earth 2.0, folks on the other side of the aisle would say loud and clear that if "everyone involved in the deal understand the payment as the price of merger approval" then it is a bribe, and all of those people should expect to go to prison if it goes ahead in the next administration

Editors, please assign a deep dive piece on the grave damage musk & doge have done to the United States, rather than how he’s feeling about it.

This is what happens when you put internet conspiracy theorists in charge of major government departments.

Was anyone gonna tell me that some birds take ant showers??? Y'all avians freaky

Oh look at that, capitulating to Trump does nothing. Despite Newsom and CIF banning a trans girl from competing in the same category as her cisgender peers, California is still being investigated for not discriminating hard enough. www.washingtontimes.com/news/2025/ma...

REMINDER!! CALL YOUR SENATORS!! We have a real, legitimate chance of saving Medicaid for trans people. Call and email your senators every day. Ask your friends to call them every day. Ask them to ask their friends. Post it on socials. Text your family. All hands on deck!!

Couple things: 1. Elon is full of shit. Ignore the credulous media. He won't stop wreaking havoc. 2. We're winning, but it will take time. Take to the street, fight back, make your voices heard. Dump your Tesla, sell your stock. Join a #TeslaTakedown protest or create your own at TeslaTakedown.com!

Good riddance. We will hold you accountable for your corruption and the harm you caused.

RFK Jr. is quite possibly the most dangerous man on the planet. And there is a lot of competition for that spot.

these numbers are a decent indication that the whole "the left is ostracizing young men" thing is, if not entirely fictional, at least very overblown

We're now 8 points away from sending Andrew Cuomo back to the suburbs.
