“More than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.” Beyond parody.

In case it’s not explained well in US news, the chainsaw is one of Milei’s bits. Notice how it’s got the snake on the Gadsden flag 🙄 yellow & black because he’s an ancap asshat

There's a lot going on right now, but this story from @dell.bsky.social and @dmehro.bsky.social is horrifying. Basically, in contravention of its own policies, Google's ad technology allows clients to identify and target people identified as, say, struggling with opioid addiction or gambling debt.

As a demo, I checked @/nullllptr (racist DOGE staffer Marko Elez’s Twitter account) and the @memory.lol index shows his real name, but also two other screen names that I haven’t seen in any reporting.

It’s very funny that Milei is embroiled in a massive scandal over promoting some scam meme coin meanwhile Trump created his own scam meme coin literally named after him and took in several billion based on it and nobody seems to care

New from 404 Media: a Musk ally has demanded administrative access to Notify.gov, a system that lets the government text the public. The access would give them large swathes of the publics' personal data too. A worker has resigned in protest rather than give access www.404media.co/musk-ally-de...
