'It's a coup': Musk's DOGE granted access to system that pays out Social Security: Elon Musk and his team at the Department of Government Efficiency—or DOGE—have been granted access to a sensitive Treasury Department payment system that contains the personal information of every American who…

🚨BREAKING: The United States government has been captured by a mob of thugs deployed by fascist oligarch Elon Musk, who has seized the Treasury & hacked essential systems. Musk is threatening Mexico with “US military forces”—and federal employees with illegal search & seizure.

Now they are pausing ALL government websites.

ICE detained a family—including a toddler—after they were overheard speaking Spanish. They’re US citizens from Puerto Rico. No chance to explain. The mother, grandmother, and child were shopping when ICE agents took them into detention before admitting their “mistake.” This is Trump’s America.

Pete Hegseth ordered the cancellation of celebrations for Martin Luther King Jr. Day and removes Black History Month from any mention by the DoD.

How quickly is our 53-day descent from democracy to fascism moving? Tonight—tonight!—I published a report asking how long it would be until Musk had normalized the Nazi salute as a mockery of “wokeness.” The answer—from my time of publication—was under an hour. America is in very serious trouble.

If Joe Biden fired 100 FAA employees and a plane crash happened just a few hours later, Fox News would bring Lou Dobbs back from the dead with wall-to-wall coverage blaming it on Biden.

had to look this up to make sure it was real www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/...

#ACTUALNEWS By 2050, the Department of the Air Force is expected to expand the Space Force significantly, integrate large numbers of combat drones, shift toward standoff strike capabilities, and develop stealthy transport aircraft, according to Secretary Frank Kendall’s remarks on January 13.

On casual Fridays, you can wear a white sheet.

Trump can’t legally own a firearm, but he’s about to be given the nuclear launch codes. Very normal country we have.

Ah, yes, the kind of “free speech” where you restrict the speech of those disfavored by the powerful, currying favor by demonstrating your willingness to kick the vulnerable. A cowardly man with a quivering bowl of curdled milk in place of a beating heart.

It's a small thing, but who is harmed by having tampons in the men's room at Facebook offices? That's not even externally-facing or related to what goes on in some Facebook group or Instagram comments thread.

Pay attention to the language they use. It reveals their true intent.

Because they’re Black, they must be looting? This isn’t an honest mistake. Spread truth, not lies: These folks weren’t looters. This footage is from KTLA, where the homeowner explained that her brothers & friends were helping her move belongings out of her burned house. (Her interview in the 🧵)

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million. That is a lie. The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.

James Woods blocked me on Twitter a long time ago but now I can see his posts again because Elon is insane.

Danish news is reporting that many of the people wearing MAGA hats in Don Jr & Charlie Kirk’s Greenland videos were homeless rounded up from the area, including one man they found under a bridge, to come into the restaurant for a photo op & a free meal. meidasnews.com/news/busted-...

The author of this piece, @geauxgabrielle.bsky.social, said the governor was so upset he contacted Essence to try to get it pulled offline. That's how you know it's a must read.

If I don’t remember to say it, happy new year

Members of the felon’s team told experts of their intent to withdraw from the World Health Organization on 1/20/25. Lawrence Gostin, professor of global health at Georgetown Law: ..the plan to withdraw “on day one” would be “catastrophic” for global health.  democrats.org/news/icymi-d...

Elon Musk's maternal grandparents relocated from Canada to South Africa in the early 1900s, where they were in the German Nazi Party. They supported Hitler and then went to South Africa, a stronghold of support for Nazism outside of Germany. Musk was an anti-semite and an apartheid lover.

There’s a legitimate reason to be concerned about free speech when the man set to oversee the FCC somehow found time to call the disgraced Wendy Bell’s former radio show to claim she was being targeted by left-wing groups — a show canceled after she called for police to shoot protestors.

Musk's opinion piece for the German paper Die Welt, endorsing a right-wing extremist political party, matters a lot more for us than you might think, so I spent some time putting together a look at German politics, Musk's views, and the reaction to them. joycevance.substack.com/p/musk-in-di...

If you know the deranged, outrageous things “Adrian Dittman” has said, you know how big this is.

A personal reflection: “Journalists like myself have a choice: surrender to the fascist mob that wants to intimidate the truth-tellers – or rededicate ourselves to doing what’s right no matter the cost.” www.newschannel5.com/news/newscha...

People casually aware of what Musk is doing who have powers of discernment understand that he is genuinely evil, but I'm telling you as a Musk biographer who follows virtually all his content that however evil you think you understand him to be the reality isn't figuratively but literally 10x worse

Needless deaths are the secret plank of the GOP platform.

in case you weren't familiar with why elon musk has a longstanding grudge against Wikipedia he hates what he cannot control slate.com/technology/2...

Everyone go donate to wikipedia. Now.

Trump is still being aggressive toward #Canada. He's a damn freak.

I’m sorry, Panama

Do you generally call victims of a shakedown "in the hot seat?" CNN really outdoing itself. To stay out of the hot seat, I guess.

I am seeing a lot of America first people excited about the prospect of invading Panama, Greenland, and Mexico. Fascinating.

I’m assuming Matt Gaetz disclosed his illegal drug use on his application to purchase firearms, right? If not, hear the Republicans think that’s a serious crime that deserves serious consequences.

THIS FLEW UNDER THE RADAR Members of the German neo-Nazi political group AfD plan to attend Trump’s inauguration. They’ve actively been engaging with U.S. conservatives & trying to capitalize on Trump’s momentum. Keep an eye on this, especially in light of Elon’s newly discovered support of AfD. 🧵

Trump has been eyeing Greenland for years.
