“I spent hours with him and walked with him thru Auschwitz. I stood with him, looking at the nauseating heaps of hair, luggage, & shoes flooded with violet light meant to preserve it. Is Musk an antisemite? People, actually, it’s worse—he doesn’t care whatsoever…He was unmoved by the experience.”

This is absolute nonsense. But since we’re on the subject, mRNA vaccines are actually incredible, allow personalization to an individuals tumor & have shown promise in difficult to treat cancers like pancreatic cancer, melanoma & glioblastoma. Science is amazing when you actually understand it.

👀 👀 👀 here’s big boy bob attempting to drag one of his constituents out of a public town hall meeting, and threatening to pepper spray her if she did not comply. he stated he wasn’t acting in his official capacity, yet he was wearing a hat that said sheriff and his badge was visible on his belt

I am inundated with messages from federal workers who are feeling frantic, furious and fed up after receiving Musk’s email and reading his threatening X post. The psychological warfare is the point.

Somehow, caucasity keeps being misspelled as meritocracy. I guess that’s what happens when half of the population can’t read…

Exactly why I've been writing, podcasting, and damn near screaming about using the right language. The mainstream media is failing us SO badly right now. Stop. Calling. This. Shit. DEI. This is (re)segregation. This is racial purging. Cleansing Black people from positions of power.

Emergency room doctors at an Ohio hospital refused to invade a drug suspect's body without consent to remove a concealed baggie, notwithstanding a warrant. The law should not be able to force medical personnel to act against their professional judgment and ethical oaths.

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

By accepting Trump’s anti-Black premise and regurgitating the narrative that equates anything Black as DEI, the NY Times has become part of the propaganda machine

Musk and DOGE are closing local Social Security offices, making it hard for people with disabilities to access help. Frank Bisignano, former FISERV CEO, is Trump’s nominee for commissioner of Social Security. He is likely to expand this. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

I LOVVVEEEEE when ppl are like “it’s literally not tht hard just do what I did!! 🤗” and they leave out the part about being white and skinny and living with their parents who buy all their food and split their car note. lol!

I know it’s been treated as a sideshow but Musk’s insane breeding fetish, the high likelihood that his actual number of children is far, far higher than known, and the fact he has effectively abandoned almost all of them is actually one of the most damning things people can learn about the man

According to Coinbase's just-filed 8-K (linked), the SEC has agreed to terminate with prejudice its lawsuit against Coinbase *without* payment of any monetary penalty. The 8-K does not state whether Coinbase has agreed to change any practices. In all events, a huge win for the Crypto industry.

On Wednesday I was the first to report Leland Dudek was on the verge of losing his job at the Social Security Administration when he was suddenly promoted to acting commissioner by Elon Musk. Thursday I published a story with more details. I’ll let you guess if I got any credit in this Post story:

let me say that this is the classic “just asking questions” approach to delegitimizing the achievements of black people. and critically, you don’t even have to be a black person who talks about race. simply being black to these people means you are “obsessed with race.”

"We don't work for DOGE. We have always worked for you." Yes!

I wish more people were talking about egg prices as less of a “muh egg prices!” thing and more about the fact that there is an organized egg cartel that is illegally price gouging and almost certainly illegally price fixing and reaping massive, gigantic profits.

People will die. Blood on Republican hands. RFK Jr. Makes His First Anti-Vaccine Move www.wsj.com/opinion/rfk-... via @WSJopinion

Illegally cutting cancer research and meals on wheels to pay for PR ads for themselves.

I literally reported this Wednesday.

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

Firing the Joint Chief Chair and replacing him with an under-qualified white man is the definition of unfair preferential hiring practices. It’s why they hate DEI so much, they see it as their invention being used against them

Strong statement by retired Rear Admiral Mike Smith, President of NSL4A: "National Security Leaders for America strongly condemns the removal of senior military officers without just cause. ... Removing experienced leaders with meritorious records weakens the force and emboldens America’s enemies."

If you are concerned about your Dem congresscritter taking part in some mushy budget compromise the thing you should do is call them.

I was on the board of the ABA about 10 years ago and all I can say is what the actual fuck are they thinking

new memo out today from leading law professors. upshot: DEI remains lawful & universities should protect their DEI policies, knowing law & moral principle is on their side. LINK: app.box.com/s/2me4mszr6p...

I genuinely would have alot of empathy and compassion for regretful Trump voters if instead of “I thought he’d hurt other people, not me” they said “I thought he’d hurt other people, and now having experienced it firsthand I realize the pain that attitude causes”

The NYT is inventing experimental euphemisms for "racist" like Edison in the lab in 1877

Since I’ve been getting this a lot - if you feel like supporting me by buying a jersey or something, I would rather you make a donation to Trans Lifeline or The Trevor Project www.thetrevorproject.org

I wrote about how particularly ridiculous it is that Senate Democrats, led by Dick Durbin, think the priority should be repealing Section 230 and undermining the very open internet we need more than ever right now. www.techdirt.com/2025/02/21/w...

Very pleased that all of the ads I'm getting for the April 1 special elections are literally calling them Nazis

Trump's DOJ is preparing to put all incarcerated transgender women into men's facilities as early as next week, and according to NPR "the bureau is well aware of concerns about potential risks of assault, sexual violence and suicides"

Remember when these guys called themselves the Teamsters because they were all coming together as a team? An incredible local news segment that shows when you just report on labor without the bosses bullshit lies, it makes total sense.🧵

He’s a racism test And he knows it and he knows white people won’t actively adress it and he’s right And he’s spun it out in ever widening circles Because no one will stop to care about those he targets

Rufo said, immediately, that he stoked CRT discourse to muddy waters+get people to view everything as CRT (later, DEI) - that's not even subjective it's an exact definitional example of "acting in bad faith"! Rufo is a walking P/F "social intelligence" test; way too many people keep failing it.

Rufo called me a groomer and sent his audience after my family because I said I was fine with my daughter going to therapy. CPS got called. It took months to get rid of them. My former colleagues thought it was hilarious and did nothing.

Disabled people are the experts in our bodies. We know what we can and can’t handle, and often understand our conditions better than most healthcare workers. Respect our autonomy & don’t force us to put our baseline at risk. Let us be partners in our care.

The concept of a "Master Race" is always going to target disabled people. White supremacists see us as a threat to their supposed genetic supremacy. Throughout history disabled people, have been used to imply that the entire family is tainted. It was assumed to be caused by heredity

More of this. Do not give in.

I am very sad to say that I would have said this is a straight line from exactly what the signals were online, and nobody was listening to the whole cohort of folks shouting about this for about 10 years straight while having their lives ruined for mentioning it
