The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

“Accidentally” — no - as with the nuclear safety people and everyone else they were deliberately fired with malice aforethought and the effort to control the gratuitous damage by trying to rehire them is a reminder that the ones who do need firing are the firers www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

In one of Elon’s outcries about fraud, he actually ended up cutting funding for cancer research. Despite initially denying it, he was later proven wrong. This incident highlights how little he actually understands about what he’s doing.

Happy the BBC is doing the reporting American media isn’t "It is always one rule for Elon, another rule for everyone else…Oh, he's about freedom alright–the freedom to do whatever he wants, no matter the cost to people, their families, and the fundamentals of democracy." www.bbc.com/news/article...

The dismantling of USAID by Elon Musk’s DOGE and a State Department funding freeze have severely disrupted efforts to help people escape forced labor camps run by criminal scammers.

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it. Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice. But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word. They aren’t firing for a reason.
