Elon Musk’s drug consumption went well beyond occasional use....he was taking so much ketamine, that it was affecting his bladder...He took Ecstasy and psychedelic mushrooms [and] traveled with a daily medication box that held about 20 pills, including...Adderall. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/u...

A drug addict unleashed a rampage hollowing out the Govt- Erasing evidence & depts investigating him while stealing OUR private info- Stripping the people of trusted services & many careers. The GOP, impotent, abandoned the people along w/ their oaths, dignity & legacies. May shame haunt them.

We need states to intervene, protecting Americans' medical data and stopping RFK Jr.'s dangerous stigmatization of autistic and disabled people. Add your name to the petition! sign.moveon.org/petitions/pr...

Plantir, owned by GOP mega donor Peter Thiel, is collecting sensitive personal and financial data on American citizens to create detailed profiles for the government. Thiel once wrote "freedom and democracy may not be compatible," and "capitalism and authoritarianism" are. Do you get it yet?

Building off @darrigomelanie.bsky.social post, here is the article for those so inclined. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/t...

Quite the headline. Quite the article. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/u...

On the Campaign Trail, Elon Musk Juggled Drugs and Family Drama As Mr. Musk entered President Trump’s orbit, his private life grew increasingly tumultuous and his drug use was more intense than previously known. #MomSky #Pinks www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/u...

Joni Ernst: "Well, we are all going to die." Wendy's Cashier: "Ma'am, please, I just need your order."

i have said this before but this is why it was and is important not to ignore the “NPC” language. these people really believe that other human beings are not real, with all the consequences that flow from this

"Well, we are all going to die." --Senator Joni Ernst That has to be the glibbest way any politician has ever told a constituent that they didn’t give a shit about them.

This was today… Sotally tober… NYT clearly way off base…

I have no idea who CNN thinks the audience is for its programming. Based on the ratings, CNN has no idea either.

Republicans are trying to defund education because an ignorant population is easier to control. Let's be clear: we won't let them win. We won't stop fighting till they take their hands off public schools.

At a town hall meeting in Iowa this morning, Republican Senator Joni Ernst was asked about cuts to Medicaid and someone yelled: “people are going to die.” Her smirky response: "WELL, we're ALL going to die." The same people who believed Democrats were creating death panels are supporting this...

I will never watch @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy again if they cave to this extortion and pay Trump when they did nothing wrong.

Phang: I fell out of my chair laughing my ass off—this idea that Donald Trump has suffered some kind of emotional distress because of the editing from 60 Minutes, which wasn’t even deceptive. We know you live in a state of emotional torture, Donald Trump—because: you’re the taco toddler.

“.. these cuts have already resulted in about 300,000 deaths, most of them of children, and will most likely lead to significantly more by the end of the year. That is what Musk’s foray into politics accomplished.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

⬇️ This is true and must stop!🛑

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...

The Dept. of Justice has filed its first voter suppression lawsuit aimed at disenfranchising voters. This is a critical juncture for democracy. Paige and I discuss the implications and how it echoes claims made by failed state Supreme Court candidate Jefferson Griffin. youtu.be/8XEW-Ga428M

WSJ!! “In a ruling heard ’round the world, the U.S. Court of International Trade on Wed blocked Trump’s sweeping tariffs. This is an important moment for the rule of law as much as for the economy, proving again that America doesn’t have a king who can rule by decree.” www.wsj.com/opinion/dona...

The biggest scandal in U.S. history is hiding in plain sight. The president and his family are boosting their wealth by $1 billion every month, selling the power and prestige of the White House. Giving this a name - Cryptogate - and a concise guide. My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/trum...

Daily Reminder: Social Security is OUR money!

The Trump folks obviously knew and this is, in fact, important for the public to know, given Musk’s deleterious impact on so many. Kudos to @kirstengrind.bsky.social and Megan Twomey for having the guts to report out yet another condition that is in plain sight. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/u...

This is irresponsible. It’s one thing to make vaccines optional, quite another to make them not an option. — US DHHS: “After a rigorous review, we concluded that continued investment in Moderna’s H5N1 mRNA vaccine was not scientifically or ethically justifiable.” www.nytimes.com/2025/05/29/h...

Sen. Patty Murray condemned HHS Secretary RFK Jr. for abruptly canceling a $776 million Moderna contract to develop pandemic flu vaccines. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

The Court just ruled Trump’s global tariffs were “ultra vires” and “contrary to law.” Translation? He made it all up. No authority. Just vibes and ego. This is what happens when you let a wannabe authoritarian play president.

ICE agents were waiting outside the immigration court to arrest Dylan - a Bronx high school student with no criminal record. This was an ambush. The Trump Admin is undermining due process to meet their enforcement quotas. Bring Dylan home now.

The Trump Admin is freezing flood mitigation programs that are vital for protecting Maryland's most at-risk areas, including South Baltimore, Cambridge and Crisfield. With cuts to FEMA and the NWS, they're gutting disaster preparedness from every direction. It will cost lives.

Wow. Avelo airlines has covered up their logo to hide the fact that they're helping with mass deportation. Avelo's customer service number is (346) 616-9500. Feel free to give them a call and tell them how you feel about them.

No words www.nytimes.com/2025/05/29/h...

The cruelty is inhuman. Grateful to join @repluzrivas.bsky.social in this fight.

Beyond parody.

"orgy of corruption and greed" That is exactly what this regime is.

Seven of the sources cited in MAHA commission's report do not exist: “The paper cited is not a real paper that I or my colleagues were involved with," says one researcher. www.notus.org/health-scien...

✈️ Travel Reminder: REAL ID is now required to board domestic flights. If you are traveling soon but don't have a REAL ID, you can still fly within the U.S. using: ✅ A valid passport ✅ Or an expired U.S. passport (currently accepted by TSA for domestic travel only) (1/2)

God told him to take away food and assistance from the poor and disabled?? And told him to make the rich wealthier?? And told him to cause harm to millions?? Are we sure that was God and not his dementia?!

Phang: If you have to resort to deceit to get something done, that tells me what you’re doing is wrong. What’s happening is a dup-and-scoop: people are being duped into going to court, their cases get dismissed, and then they’re scooped up by ICE and deported under expedited removal.

It is easy to forget that when Paul Weiss and the other law firms that capitulated to Trump cut their deals they thought they would be viewed as savvy dealmakers. Now they look like craven fools and gutless cowards.
