Run for something.

DOGE is like if Fyre Festival was a government agency.

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

Exactly.

That's a real winner.

Multiple reports of drivers doing spontaneous sieg heil salutes at protesters today, including in one case from someone I know personally. What is being normalized is monstrous and dangerous; every day we step closer to the abyss

The Trump regime's segregationist agenda is clear. I argue that having a Black man as president of white America enraged a portion of this country so much, that they decided to destroy any pipeline to Black advancement in academia, government, & workplaces. karenattiah.substack.com/p/trumps-seg...

The irony of Democrats sending a strongly worded letter to Trump to stop the dismantling of the USPS isn’t lost on me. Don’t let him turn democracy into a dead letter office. F’n FIGHT.

The spies have really let us down so far.

Gee, why isn't DOGE flagging this as wasteful spending? www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

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...

We just won a court order stopping DOGE and unauthorized, unelected, and unvetted individuals like Elon Musk from accessing people's private data and blocking federal funds. We will keep fighting to protect all Americans from this administration’s destruction.

Fantastic news. Scientists are the best.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

This dangerous lunatic is dismantling our country for personal gain. We have the power to stop him. Hit the streets and make your voice heard at Teslatakedown.com

Among those Trump and Musk fired at the FAA: - Lawyers who help keep drunk or reckless pilots out of the skies - Air traffic control support staff - Employees who track potential new flying hazards like cranes - Staffers who medically clear pilots to fly www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

On this week’s AvTalk, #DL4819’s roll over crash in Toronto, important updates from the NTSB on the mid-air collision in Washington, how the FAA firings could affect the agency, and Southwest lays off 15% of its corporate workforce. www.flightradar24.com/blog/avtalk-...

The U.S. has given Europe three weeks to agree on Ukraine's surrender terms—or it will withdraw from Europe, claims member of the European Parliament Mika Aaltola. "Trump prioritizes Russia’s security concerns now and in the future. Let them own their mess. We have three weeks to grow up."

Did the @nytimes.com really quote the mf-ing communications director of the Houston YOUNG REPUBLICANS as if he were just some random young Black person who likes Trump? Cause it sure looks like it.

The next step in the Russian autocratization playbook is to sell government holdings off to cronies

This is huge scandal. And frankly it sounds dangerous.

Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.

I love it when our nazi crackhead shadow president screams slurs at astronauts when they push back on his insane lies

Amazon MGM's slate of new Bezos-approved James Bond movies: DOCTOR OZ FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE, BUT UKRAINE SUCKS THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN TOILET GRAB 'EM BY THE OCTOPUSSY THE WORLD IS NOT ELON'S #BezosBond

Yep. It was never a secret.

Extraordinary story the Wall Street Journal. X is threatening advertisers that if they don’t spend more, Elon Musk will use his influence in government to block company mergers. That’s extortion.

Leadership.

Another way to put this: Musk and his twerps have exposed us to pandemics, broken science, stolen all your data, endangered the U.S. payments system, threatened air traffic control, and cut off HIV medication to 20m people in order to save ::checks notes:: 2/10th of a percent of the federal budget.

Yep.
