In addition to all their other problematic actions in the housing market, you can add Airbnb to your boycott list since your dollars will literally go to a guy who is helping Musk with his coup. He’s no longer the CEO but he’s a controlling shareholder. www.newsweek.com/airbnb-joe-g...

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.

Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion in 2021, ProPublica found in a first-of-its-kind data analysis. The rate of sepsis shot up more than 50% for women hospitalized when they lost their pregnancies in the second trimester.

If you were wondering if there is a word to describe how the United States is currently being governed, why, yes, there is: kakistocracy!

Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes. You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment. My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc. www.reddit.com/r/Passports/...

Just so we're clear on what just happened: The nonprofit that runs the US's national sexual assault hotline and claims to do advocacy on behalf of survivors just put a rapist and felon in charge of dictating how survivors can tell their stories, and what details they can or can't include.

I've noted some of the procedural things Democrats could be doing in Congress, but this point from @edgeofsports.bsky.social's great piece in the Nation deserves emphasis. This is basic politics, and it's baffling that every Democrat isn't doing it every day. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

Woah woah. Air traffic safety isn’t even operating half-staffed or understaffed. They’re like a third-staffed. If this is the case, another plane crash is inevitable this week.

JD Vance owns AcreTrader, an app that lets wealthy—often foreign—investors buy up U.S. farmland. Guess who’s deliberately tanking farm economies so JD and his billionaire tech buddies can scoop it up for pennies. civileats.com/2024/09/18/j...

“Forty-one U.S. senators could use the filibuster to block most legislation that enables the funding of Musk’s companies. With 53 Republicans, 45 Democrats, and two independents in the Senate, such a push is numerically possible, though politically difficult.“

Which is to say, they come back to slavery & black civil rights. This is why DEI is the priority, not the price of eggs. These right-wingers are fighting the same fight they've been fighting from the start: defending their privilege to enslave & dominate.

This is a reminder that you are absolutely allowed to not like something without trying to twist it into something problematic.

Democratic calls for funding need to stay out of my inbox. Y’all are being paid, do your job. Active resistance doesn’t cost money. Muscle past the unofficial security guards Elon hired, stand over these children and disrupt their work. #dnc

Representatives are annoyed we are reaching out via phone, letter & in person - but let’s not forget the FAX MACHINE. The site lets you send free faxes to your representatives - I just sent one. You can upload a full file or just put a message in the text box. faxzero.com/fax_congress... #resist

Whelp. I will take heart from this development if and when people actually report funds being received. Until then it’s just vibes.

Very good news. But keep the switchboards busy, too. Republicans need to hear how absolutely livid you are about the dangers RFK poses to public health.

I hope someone with a finer eye for detail than me makes sure these pages and their data are accurate because I suspect they will not be.

I sadly know folks who are likely to unalive themselves if they lose Medicaid. All so a billionaire and his buddies can become even more wealthy. It’s obscene the scale of human suffering they are gleefully presiding over for personal profit.

Once again, I am here from Poland to tell you that predicating your response to a rule of law crisis on fear of how your opponents will frame your resistance is as ineffectual as it is solipsistic.

Keep up the pressure but also UP it. We need to be interrupting the lives of elected officials in both parties. Interrupt them when you see them at the coffee shop, at a restaurant, walking their dogs. Remind them that they are civil servants. Use Resistbot, mail, call @ them. Don’t let up.

Hello married women. In case Congress does pass this, you should probably get your passport if you don’t have one. Or get it renewed if you do have one. Like now. Immediately. www.newsweek.com/married-wome...

I wrote about Kendrick Lamar Superbowl performance-- its subversive messaging about America being a rigged, deadly game of survival-- especially for Black people. But we need to stop pretending revolution is going to come from celebrities. It'll come from us. Gift link here: wapo.st/42JVBs6

Further confirmation that there is no enforcement mechanism for these orders. Musk and co. are going to keep going until someone physically stops them.

Just got off the phone with Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-N.M.), who said Elon Musk's DOGE team is "actively dismantling" federal Department of Education programs today. "They are in the building, on the 6th floor, canceling grants and contracts."
