Where's my voucher for a free transgender operation? I'm not trans, but if other people get one for free, I deserve the same thing.

One of the most important things to understand here is that firing government civilians will shift more work onto service members. That's work that isn't necessary for their military readiness. So by its very nature, this move will decrease military readiness.

This is actual waste. It did nothing to improve anyone's lives or help the country in any way. It was fellating a wannabe tyrant based on lies.

The problem is, no matter how thoroughly you explain what you did, none of his team will even be able to understand any of it. Both because they don't have context for it and because they are idiots. So it's a futile effort to try. This is all a pretext that will result in a firing either way.

Guy who doesn’t even respond to the mothers of his children: reply to my email or you’re fired

This is extortion.

“.. a terrible book .. deeply undemocratic .. essentially an advertisement for Palantir .. “The idea is to enshrine an unaccountable elite of engineers,” who will “apply a ‘ruthlessly pragmatic’.. mindset to national issues.. So… they are gonna own the government?” www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Musk’s cost-cutting team is eliminating jobs at the vehicle safety agency that oversees Tesla and has launched investigations into deadly crashes involving his company’s cars. apnews.com/article/musk...

“Once the military is deeply into partisan politics, it simply will be hard to take it out of partisan politics”

If you are at a conference where this happens, you are at a nazi rally.

Forty-five years later:

Elon musk is a Nazi white supremacist. Everyone needs to understand this and stop avoiding the plain truth.

Seems like a lot of waste to completely shut down all this infrastructure and sell off EV fleets. Especially since we all know Tesla purchases are coming. Which sounds a lot like fraud to me.

This is climate arson, yes, but also the entire value proposition of Tesla, the reason for its insane stock price, is that it would end up the Amazon of electric cars: the only real game in town. Killing off non-Tesla electric car infrastructure is a gift to Musk.

Well I guess the General firing has started. Let's see how many are women and people of color.

I am so sick of this shit. It’s a Sieg Heil. It’s a Nazi salute. Anyone who sees it knows. It’s ridiculous that legal departments presumably won’t let media call it what it is. Bannon made “a provocative gesture that resembled the salute Elon Musk gave at a post-inauguration rally”? Fuck off.

Precisely what we warned about when the emails first went out.

there are tens of millions of Americans who broadly think of Donald Trump as “the guy who is good at money/business”, in large part because he starred in a popular reality TV show that presented him as a business expert, a job he accepted in part because his actual businesses were failing

How many federal workers would DOGE need to fire to make up for Musk not paying his fair share of taxes? Answer: 677,000. That's 44% of the entire non-DoD federal workforce. Again, this power grab is not about the budget. It’s about politics.

Oh damn. So sucking the wannabe dictator's dick didn't do enough to get them a win?

They're gonna shit bricks after they burn everything down and realize the people they hate are all still right fuckin' there and whatnot.

Here's video of Steve Bannon doing a Sieg Heil today at CPAC. It is what it is and it's what Bannon intended. Don't let yourself be gaslit.

Isn’t it time for the folks on the left who aligned themselves with the “anti-woke” movement to admit they were conned?

Important to start admitting that we’re living under Schrodinger’s constitution—one that is not in effect whenever it constrains Republican powers, but is in effect whenever it can be used to stymie democrats or suppress opposition.

Is there really enough time for the USA hockey team to learn the Russian anthem before the game tonight?

How stupid and arbitrary are Trump's mass firings at federal agencies? A State Dept employee tells me some colleagues are racing to change their job descriptions so phrases like "transnational crime" don't get caught up in DOGE AI bots scanning for words like "trans" to fire people because "DEI."

Trump played golf every day this week - while accusing federal workers of playing golf while working remotely.

Think of how low the bar is on top of that a reality TV actor at SecTran, a Russian asset at the CIA, an anti-vaxxer at HHS. This is the least qualified administration in the history of the Western world.

In 2024, the NLRB filed a complaint against Tesla for interfering in a union drive at their Buffalo, NY assembly plant. Today:

the whole 2020-2024 era of “dems shouldnt aggressively use the levers of power bc then republicans will do the same thing when theyre elected” sure looks dumb as dog shit right now huh

Senator McConnell retires knowing that he's fulfilled his mission of destroying the United States.

This is fucking bullshit from an official government account. The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were written to free us from kings.
