(1/2) It's hard for me me to tell if any of my followers are real people or bots, but I wanted to apologize to any followers. Now that the blue check system came out, I realized I need to scrutinize my sources better. I've realized some sources were possibly fake. I don't think we can make the...

This is extremely well articulated. They seem to forget that the 1950s were funded, not by tariffs, but by some of the highest taxes in history, under President Eisenhower, a Republican. Now the 50s are problematic for many other reasons #history #tariffs #AcademicSky #SkyStorians

Donald Trump’s billionaire Commerce Secretary has financial advice for Americans: 1. Please buy Tesla stock to help poor Elon Musk. 2. Shut up and don’t complain when you don’t get your Social Security check.

"The language that is being used has a specific resonance, which, historically, has been used to change regime type. It is important that the rights of human beings were violated. It is important that the rule of law was ignored. It is important that the executive is trying to define reality."

If you let the executive deport people to a foreign gulag just by pronouncing the word “terrorism,” then expect to be called a “terrorist” soon yourself.

Over the past several weeks, ProPublica has identified dozens of people who worked for DOGE. #ICYMI: We just added 20 names to our tracker, bringing the total to 66.

“The ‘Pardons’ that Sleepy Joe Biden gave to the Unselect Committee of Political Thugs, and many others, are hereby declared VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT, because of the fact that they were done by Autopen.”

It’s extremely alarming that Trump openly defying a court order is being covered as “Trump decides to not follow it” and not “Trump illegally defies court.” Or in the Washington Post’s case, not even mentioned at all

If court orders are being ignored, we’re having that constitutional crisis that everyone’s been worried about. We’re there, folks.

Balaji Srinivasan suggests giving Elon Musk “control of a huge swath of land surrounding Starbase, Texas” & designate that land as “a military base or … similar, so that [Musk] can fence it off & determine at his sole discretion who can enter.” Then replicate in other states w/ other Tech Bros. 1/

The FEMA funding freeze is impacting security at Jewish institutions and not even that could make Jonathan Greenblatt turn on Trump because he’s a fucking fraud. jewishinsider.com/2025/03/jewi...

“Are we going to break something?” acting Social Security Commissioner Leland Dudek asked, referring to what DOGE has been doing with Social Security data. “I don’t know.

Massive anti-US invasion protest in Nuuk, Greenland outside the US consulate. "99% say no Trump" "no means no" ( 📹@OJoelsen ) #3E #EndImpunity #GreenlandProtests

Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted… And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right. George Orwell, 1984

When you read these stories, always remember Elon Musk called his own immigration status a "gray area" when he came to the U.S. as a student. Musk dropped out of school and started doing things his student visa didn't permit.

Um holy shit. They’re saying this is for U.S.-Mexico border security. But unless you plan on launching missiles at the cartels I don’t know how this ship helps that.

The 'kill switch' (or similar safeguard) embedded within the F-35 is the ultimate latent Trojan horse. Alternatively, without access to US-controlled maintenance, computer networks, and logistics, the F-35 can be similarly rendered useless (albeit slower). Cancel your orders.

A reminder in dark times: kindness, mercy, decency, and respect towards the least of us enrages Trumpists. It burns them. It’s like a mirror that shows them how they fall short of humanity. Kindness and decency towards the people Trumpists hate is not just right; it torments Trumpists.

Fossil-fueled tornado outbreak now: 40 tornadoes, 31 dead in cross-country storm system. Over 200,000 are without power across five states. At least 3 dead in Mississippi. Flash flood warnings are in effect from southern Mississippi through central Tennessee. abcnews.go.com/US/live-upda...

It seems I've also been placed on leave, just like the rest of my VOA colleagues. Truth is, I can't know for sure, because when I woke up this morning in Seoul, I'd already been locked out of all VOA-related systems and accounts.

The Trump administration has been disappearing immigrants “the judge said he heard that ‘flights are actively departing’“ “the Justice Department, did not publicly disclose information about whether the government had deported immigrants to third countries, citing national security concerns”

The richest man in the world decided this OKC retiree (born on a US military base) was actually a non-citizen committing social security fraud. Imagine if this retiree had to rectify this nightmare situation by dealing with AI chatbots. www.wkrn.com/news/nationa...

Dr. Rasha Alawieh, a nephrologist at Brown, was DEPORTED despite having a valid H1B visa. Tell me again how we are just "deporting criminals"?? There is a workforce shortage of physicians!!! www.browndailyherald.com/article/2025...

Hundreds of people gathered at Patriots Park right now in Tarrytown for a Stop the Cuts Rally — holding Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) accountable for his vote to decimate Medicaid.

Awesome protest idea!

The straight-up Deutsche Volk supremacism here aside, Vance, Matt Taibbi, etc want us to simultaneously believe that European countries are totalitarian police states when it comes to speech and a bunch of hippie communes with no effective borders when it comes to immigration.

🇷🇸 Serbia: March 14th saw the largest protest in Belgrade against dictator Vucic since the 2000 protests against dictator Milosevic. Those protests eventually led to Milosevic's overthrow and extradition to the Hague for his war crimes and genocide. He died in a prison cell.

BREAKING | Protesters in Los Angeles shut down traffic, joining the nationwide movement demanding the release of detained Columbia student Mahmoud Khalil.

this program allows food banks to purchase from local farms and other producers allowing local businesses to thrive while also feeding the community. it’s reliable money for local businesses that are going to disappear without it

It’s unreal - the DOD deleted its page for Charles Calvin Rodgers, a Medal of Honor recipient who was wounded three times while defending against three assaults on his base in Vietnam. Now the URL includes “DEI Medal of Honor.” There’s something about Rodgers I don’t even have to tell you

every member of DOGE was one of the hands holding the knives that killed these people.

So Romania, Serbia, Hungary. People rising up against authoritarianism. Clearly, we’re up soon.

Take a moment today to read about a few of the young children whom Trump and Musk killed by shutting down USAID. The blame for these deaths falls on them. There will be hundreds of thousands more dead kids before their lethal crusade against foreign aid ends. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
