Musk claims Social Security is a "gigantic magnet to attract illegal immigrants." In fact, immigrants here illegally do not collect Social Security. But they pay $25.7 billion a year into it, a recent study found, so these undocumented workers are actually subsidizing Americans.

When Trump's agency heads ripped into Musk inside the WH, what they really revealed is that DOGE is on the verge of unleashing governing catastrophes that they don't want to take the blame for. On the pod, @katearonoff.bsky.social and I dig deep into this dynamic: newrepublic.com/article/1925...

The moral depravity of offering refuge to South African farmers in the United States while simultaneously stripping Ukrainians of their TPS is almost beyond my ability to comprehend.

What drives me crazy about the anti-DEI rhetoric is everyone wants to be judged on merit. But you can't be judged on merit if you can't even get in the door because you don't fit some prejudiced definition of who is capable and who isn't

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.
