The entire Musk-Trump Administration is stuffed with zero qualified zero experienced maga whack-jobs whose only real talents are bending the knee to an adjudicated rapist and life-long scam artist ā€” thereby selling their souls. We are not safe.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social: Itā€™s 4amā€”still debating the Republicansā€™ billionaire tax giveaway. We offered an amendment to say no tax cut for those making over $10m. Every Republican voted no. So we tried $100m. Every Repub voted no. So we tried $500m! Every Republican a no. See whatā€™s going on?

Elon Musk is swinging around a chainsaw at CPAC

Call your representatives and tell them to cut their pensions, comma cut their healthcare, comma and cut every other perk they get before they cut Medicaid or any other benefits for their constituents.

Lawyers at Twitter are reportedly threatening advertisers to spend more money on the platform ā€œor elseā€ Elon Musk will use his connections with Trump to hurt their companies.

šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø Just now at CPAC ā€” Musk awkwardly swings around a chainsaw on stage to symbolize their rampage through the federal government, cutting jobs and programs as they pretend to care about the debt (while paving the way for trillions in tax cuts for the rich)

This will go down as the real end.

Iā€™m not sure the world has seen a genuine supervillain until 2025. Of course thereā€™ve been countless monsters: hitler, Stalin, pol pot. But a real life figure who fits the Gotham/Metropolis model. Plutocrat bigwig who is actually deeply evil & wants to run the world for cartoonishly stupid reasons.

The National Park Service fired many of its park rangers as part of a reduction in the federal work force. Some rangers decided it was worth the risk to speak out online about the cuts and share their love of the Park Service. ā€œItā€™s scary, but it was the right thing to do.ā€

Why is the media acting like this is all normal?!

Hey congressional Republicans, still waiting for you to announce how much youā€™re cutting from congressā€™ own $6.5 billion budgetā€¦.

wearing sunglasses inside and following an event where he at times had a hard time speaking coherently, Elon Musk walks off the CPAC stage waving around a chain saw. this is the guy currently running our government. Congrats, America!

Twitter is now an American right wing disinformation machine interfering in global politics. Your participation in it, is collaboration and nothing less.

I was at the store when I saw the notice of Patel's confirmation. I exclaimed "OH MY GOD!" Clerk asked what happenedā€”I explained they just confirmed Kash Patel! She and no one in the checkout line with me knew what I was talking about. šŸ˜¬šŸ˜”

If you're trying to figure out what to do right now, my advice is to just pick a thing that you think might be useful in some way, however small, and do it. Doing a thing leads you to doing another, bigger thing, and prepares you for that next thing.

I posted this was a lie right after Musk said it. This is the Commander of the ISS. Musk responded to this post by throwing a temper tantrum and calling for ISS to be defunded.

If youā€™re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you havenā€™t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

šŸšØNEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Murphy: "There's no separation between the Kremlin & the White House right now. The White House is a full-time Kremlin propaganda operation..there's a real probability American troops are going to have fight abroad to protect the global world order & our allies & perhaps American sovereignty itself"

Connolly: "The fallacy of Musk's argument is they never look at revenue. They only look at expenditures. If you want to save social security, it's a fairly easy fix. Raise income threshold subject to withholding tax & you can extend social security by 40 to 50yrs. He doesn't want to talk about that"

Take J. Edgar Hoover and then make him 30 times worse. The whole nation will suffer for this folly. Suffer so much more than anyone yet realizes. This was a critical benchmark Trump had to hit to advance his plan to destroy democracy. Everyone who voted for Kash Patel should live in infamy forever.

This is not how federal criminal investigations work. ā€”me (former federal criminal investigator)

Here in Illinois, ten years ago we saw the consequences of a rampant ideological gutting of government. It genuinely harmed people. Our citizens hated it. Trust me ā€“ I was elected based in part on just how much they hated it.

The good news is i saved you 60 billion dollars. The bad news is that is a typo i saved you 600 dollars and also your plane is falling out of the sky

Pulling out the same type of device on a traffic stop that was used to beat police officers on Jan 6 is probably not the best plan.

Itā€™s only Monday!

We need to save some smoke for voters. Trump was very clear during the campaign that he planned to settle Russia's war on Ukraine quickly and on Putin's terms. 77 million people voted for him anyway, and now he's following through. American voters sold out our ally.

ā€œZelensky survived a dozen Russian assassination attempts including a special forces assault on his presidential complex.He stood up to Trump. Iā€™m sure heā€™ll be deeply impressed to learn our Congressional Republicans live as terrified hostages of their own party leader.ā€ ~ @michaeldweiss.bsky.social

He will burn down whatever he can, however he can Our systems of governance, rule of law, global alliances, even the Constitution. Consumed by vengeance and greed, he is the greatest threat to our Republic since its founding. We must meet this moment with the force of a thousand suns. Or perish.

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are ā€œundermining civilization.ā€ He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from ā€œgenerational trauma.ā€ This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

Ex NFL player @chriswarcraft.bsky.social protesting the inclusion of a MAGA acronym in the Huntington Beach library plaque at last nightā€™s council meeting. He was arrested and cited.

šŸ“¢ ā€œHeā€™s trying to steal Medicaid to enrich himself. Heā€™s gutting NASA to line his pockets with SpaceX. Heā€™s looting everything good in America for private profit.ā€ - @aoc.bsky.social at todayā€™s #SaveOurServices NYC rally. The fight isnā€™t over. Join us: go.savepublicservices.com

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russiaā€™s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraineā€™s voice is heard on the world stage.

Stop asking where former Vice President Kamala Harris is, she was right there willing to save us all from impending doom and many people failed her in order to choose doom instead just to see others suffer. Leave her the fuck alone, she owes no one anything.

BREAKING: USAID contractors/aid recipients say Secretary Rubio and USAID leader Peter Marocco should be held in civil contempt for violating a court order to lift spending freeze.

"Brazilā€™s prosecutor-general on Tuesday formally charged former President Jair Bolsonaro with attempting a coup to stay in office after his 2022 election defeat, in a plot that included a plan to poison his successor and current President Luiz InĆ”cio Lula da Silva and kill a Supreme Court judge."

It really is pathetic that the President of the United States and the richest man in the world are doing a joint interview together on how theyā€™re running the country.

Cowardly Quisling

Writing from experience. Weā€™re being forced to feel what Iā€™m calling ā€œmass learned helplessnessā€. We are watching our institutions that have been protecting us get ripped apart every day on MSM. Our leaders appear to be helpless. Helplessness is how we will be made to conform to the new America.
