Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

40000 days ago (Aug 17, 1915), Rube Benton has an impressive debut for Pittsburgh, beating Chicago 3-2. This is a problem: Benton doesn’t play for them. The Reds waived Rube, the Giants claimed him, then the Pirates offered the Reds $4000 for Benton. Too late, already a Giant. The game is replayed.

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people. And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...
