The incompetent engineers at SpaceX who create aircraft that explode after takeoff are going to take control of the FAA to make aviation safer. Nothing to see. Everything is fine. GIRL, TAKE GREYHOUND!!!

it is genuinely incredible that all you have to do is scratch the surface and it becomes clear that each of these guys is a huge piece of shit

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau literally exists to protect consumers from predatory financial institutions. It's returned over $21 billion to 205 million consumers. The sole result of this move is that Americans will have no recourse when they get screwed over by a bank. Good work Elon 👍

You need to get these vaccines NOW y’all. Your insurance only covers what the guidelines SAY TO COVER. RFK Jr. is about to be in charge of the guidelines and is allowing fake “studies” and pseudoscience to guide MEDICINE.

NEW: Archived tweets for Gavin Kriger, Musk's 20-something DOGE employee wreaking havoc inside USAID, shows that Kriger has retweeted multiple neo-Nazis including Nick Fuentes, leader of the so-called Groyper movement, and another popular explicit Nazi account recently unmasked by @travisbrown.dev

It was only a matter of time before he backed the return of Apartheid, especially with Musk whispering in that miraculously healed ear.

this is what happens when your country is addicted to old white men telling them what to do, oil money is old money stocks.apple.com/ABzOYTiR0RFO...

My 12 year old just took a civics class and knows more

Perfectly captured.

Herbie Hancock and Stevie Wonder on the same piano stool 🥹 What a dream!

Baby Cynthia has some pips on her, talk about Black Excellence 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 #Grammys

Let’s talk about all the grants Elon received and the billions in government subsidies he spent. www.latimes.com/business/la-...

Yes. Former Treasury and OMB officials explained to me in detail what sort of power Elon Musk has now been granted. They described it as akin to having his hands on a series of spigots that he can now turn on and off: newrepublic.com/article/1910...

I didn't watch "Atlanta" when it first came out. I regret that decision. Over the past three weeks, I've binge-watched the entire series and finished today's last episode. It is undoubtedly the best television series ever—masterful in every way. Start this month if you haven't watched it. #blacksky

I think some of us center left liberals (myself included) need to get over ourselves and get in behind AOC. She's super smart and a fighter. She should be leading the party as we enter into this dangerous, uncharted territory.

THIS is how you communicate, folks

Like I said, they aren't just coming after black folks.

Normalizing spelling out what people actually mean when they cite DEI rather than letting them hide behind the safe cover of a euphemism that's been sapped of meaning

I actually wish the media would stop using "DEI" and "diversity hiring" and just get to the essence of the thing and ask: "Are you saying that this crash was caused by desegregating the races?" And see what happens.

An American president using race-baiting to deflect scrutiny and avoid accountability isn’t new—but it’s 2025! Wake up. He’s not just attacking me as a Black woman when he attacks DEI. White women, Asians, and Latinos—he means you too. We may be first on the list, but trust me, you’re next.

Wild. Top is the NBC upload, bottom is the one aired as the live feed

So far Trump has issued a lawless order reinstating TikTok, pardoned 174 people who assaulted police officers, incorrectly identified the Gulf of Mexico, and the media is so scared they’re not showing the Shadow President’s Nazi salute. It’s not yet 9:00 on the east coast.

We know this means that unaccompanied children, (Afghan) partner forces who trained, fought and died or were injured alongside our troops, and families of active duty U.S. service members are going to be stuck," said VanDiver.

First they came for the immigrants, and you did not speak out, because you were not an immigrant. Then they came for the trans, and you did not speak out, because you were not trans. Then they came for porn, and you shouted at the top of your lungs “WTF?! They’re banning porn now?!? Fml.”

Fed up with Meta? Avoiding Instagram or Facebook isn’t enough to stop Meta from harvesting and profiting from your private information. Here’s how to limit Meta’s ability to monetize your personal data.

It does feel a little weird to watch Zuckerberg parade around shouting “I’M THE BETA”

To all the white women who voted for Trump, FAFO!
