Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

OH FUCK NO. I'm sending an email, but white women, this is y'all's moment to shine. I can't think of a better reason to need to a speak to a manager. Inside every white woman reading this is a Karen waiting to be called into action. Lock-in, dig deep, and be a Karen for democracy!

While Elon Musk’s deserves all our anger hate we really need to focus on the Republicans letting this happen.They want to break the government but are too scared to do it through legislation where they will be held accountable so they are letting Elon do it with no oversight.Time to go after them.

The Trump Playbook: 1. Manufacture a crisis. 2. Hype it up. 3. Pretend you solved it. 4. Declare yourself the victor. 5. Repeat. Basically has our allies asking, “what bone do we throw this crazy idiot so he can parade around beating his chest saying he won?” It’s all a farce. (via Ana Navarro)
