This is the ultimate dick boss move from Musk - except he isn’t even the boss, he’s just a dick.

In modern history, what is the least popular that party leaders have ever been to their OWN voters? Second place was the GOP in 2009, where their net approval with Republican voters was only +6. Currently Dems are -8, shattering all previous records.

The reply email inbox for this “what did you do last week” email is [email protected], so, you know, definitely don’t send them any unrelated messages that would interfere with their ability to carry out Elon’s dumbass bullshit

Democrats should go to all these ruby red and vulnerable GOP districts where voters are upset at Trump and Musk and court them. Full court press.

Man he really called it

Running thread of people trying to normalize the sieg heil. It's not an "Elon gesture", it's not autism, it's not your heart going out, it's not parody or trolling. It's fucking despicable. Don't ever let this shit become normal. Fuck any excuse given, there is none. Zero tolerance. 1. Elon Musk

Hey @halbfinger.bsky.social, could you or someone else at the Times explain how firing a qualified senior general “root[s] out diversity initiatives?” Which initiative specifically did this “root out?”

It's been so run through pop culture as to seem almost corny, but I need you all to understand with the deepest seriousness available to you that the "First they came for..." thing was to prepare you for this exact moment

How Hitler seized power: 1. Create a crisis. 2. Demonize opponents. 3. Declare a state of emergency. 4. Undermine elections. 5. Make the rule of law irrelevant. 6. Rule by decree. If America falls it will be because of the people who didn’t pay attention.

By replacing a black 4-star general with a white 3-star general, we are finally bringing meritocracy back to the Department of Defense. by Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump

I disagree with the view that the path for Dems to win back power is towards the center (which, bc of the Overton shift, is no longer truly the center), but this thread by @wertwhile.bsky.social makes an excellent point: the base will love moderate Dems who actually show some fight in ‘em!

How it started. How it’s going

translating everything regardless of context into Upper East Side politesse is not only an extremely weird psychological trait but is fundamentally at odds with the journalistic imperative to report the truth

Now why do you think it is that DOJ dismissed charges against SpaceX WITH prejudice but Emil Bove plans to hold charges over Eric Adams' head for almost four more years? www.nytimes.com/2025/02/20/u...

I am going to give @thedailybeast.bsky.social a provocative gesture that resembled the controversial salute Johnny Cash gave at San Quentin in 1969.

More of this. The fuck are you doing promoting a book when the country is falling apart?

I feel so sick. Enough with the lies, enough with the games. They know exactly what they're doing. This is a neo-Nazi movement. Proudly so. The only reason they've kept it coded up until now was to take advantage of those who didn't want to believe it. No more looking away. Face up to what it is.

This dude is fucking awesome!

Isn’t there a dystopian movie about a defunct national postal service being resurrected by someone pretending to be a postal worker and his actions being the catalyst for a full-on rebellion against a tyrannical government? What’s it called again?

Compare what @brianstelter.bsky.social wrote below (⬆️ public pressure = ⬇️ success, more effective to do backroom negotiations) with what @fritschner.bsky.social wrote here (it’s more effective to “create space” for Rs to do the right thing): bsky.app/profile/frit... There’s a theme here.

Every single editor at every single legacy media, and every single establishment Dem, needs this entire thread burned into their brain! 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

The Democratic Party establishment will burn down the party and switch to the GOP before they ever let these two women get near leadership. Sad but true.

It *should* be @aoc.bsky.social.

Who is the leader of the Democratic Party? Sincere question.

Omfg 🤦🏽‍♂️ You know when the media will focus on the damaging actions? When people in power—like you—use your pulpit to point how Trump is setting the stage for an autocratic takeover of the gov’t, including by making comments like this that are intended to normalize what he’s doing.
