Elon Musk: Billionaire, But Not a Genius? Biographer Seth Abramson shreds the myth: “Zero intellectual achievements.” Fired from PayPal & Zip2, nearly ran Tesla & SpaceX into the ground, bailed out by Obama. Buying companies ≠ brilliance. The Musk “genius” illusion is collapsing.

Alexis Cole (Newsweek): “In Donald Trump's America, a Hawaiian-born Black man elected by millions is an eternal suspect. A South African-born white billionaire nobody voted for, however, is handed the keys to the White House.”

Still can’t believe people just breezed over this.😑

Rep. Rayner has brought back resources to communities in the Tampa Bay Area by making legislative alliances across the aisle while challenging the Governor & her colleagues in the Florida Legislature. Now, she’s running for state Senate! Follow & support her! LFG FL! #DCFL

DOGE's numbers are wrong (shocker!), but several outlets report that so far this year, Trump has spent $10.7 million of taxpayer money playing golf. Not part of DOGE investigation, of course: newrepublic.com/article/1916...

Houston we have a problem -America

Donald Trump is calling himself King to distract you. He wants to distract you from the fact that egg prices are at an all time high, that Russia is praising him for abandoning Ukraine, and that he fired nuclear analysts accidentally. Don't let him distract you.

This is a prime example of poor messaging. “At 4am, Republicans just voted for more of *your* money going straight into the pockets of multi-millionaires.” Take a lesson from Pete Buttigieg.

This evening, I’m voting in an advance poll. I’m doing my part to get rid of Doug Ford in Ontario. Exercise your right to vote. I don’t want to hear anyone complain about the government if they couldn’t be bothered to vote.

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com: "Inspectors general are a headache for everyone. You know why? Because they're investigating every agency and they find stuff! Including waste and fraud and abuse! They wouldn't be firing them if they cared about waste, fraud, and abuse."

Do you think Trump is being blackmailed by Putin? It’s an easy question to ask, and the press should be asking every republican in congress daily. Get the conversation started.

Apparently when they designed the Cybertruck, Tesla failed to take into account road weight limits and driver licence weight restrictions in the UK and EU market. Unfortunately it makes them illegal in both markets. You would think a CEO who gets a $47B bonus would have caught that.

✊🏼 Do Something, America! ✊🏼

This is happening all over the Country and it’s not the Immigrants stealing their jobs! 😡

To the @GOP senators and Congressmen who claim to support Ukraine, you do have some power… if you’re unwilling to exercise it then don’t pretend to care about your country more than your political career:

It speaks for itself…

I guess this deal with Panama was in exchange for agreeing not to invade. Wondered why I hadn't heard much about that lately: www.youtube.com/watch?v=YV6z...

💡👺💡 Religion has been weaponized for harm throughout history..Crusades (1096–1291) brought massacres in God’s name..Colonialism used Christianity to erase cultures…Nazi Germany twisted faith to justify hate. Today-religious rhetoric still limits rights, distorting faith’s true purpose: #justice #USA

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Putin is a dictator. Trump is a wannabe dictator. Zelensky is a hero.

This American stands with Ukraine! 🇺🇦 please spread the message

Can you imagine a meeting between countries that discussed our war and we were not at the table ???? Slava Ukraini

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes
