He nails it.

A small government team at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, responsible for regulating autonomous cars—which Elon Musk claims are the future of Tesla—is being cut nearly in half by Musk. Conflict of interest?

Of course.

Whatever else emerges in time about the Delta crash in Canada, one thing is certain: the importance & amazing professionalism of flight attendants who safely evacuated the plane in a matter of seconds.

Russia is at its weakest in years. Putin is in a precarious situation. They are attacking western interests around the world and murdering Europeans. Why is Rubio bending a knee and showing weakness?

Hey @JDVance, and @elonmusk, and @realDonaldTrump it looks like the Auschwitz Memorial wants to educate you. STOP LYING TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

Go ahead. Let the people see you for what you are.

NEW: Trump’s FEMA administrator just sent out an email ordering all employees to stop sending things to the media without prior authorization. It was immediately sent to me by a FEMA employee without prior authorization to share with you.

Hey @washingtonpost.com, why are you such cowards?

Curious question: Why do entities/states who sue Musk wait until he is in the govt systems before suing him? Why not do it preemptively? He says he wants in to IRS records. File suit to prevent this based on his announcement.

This is the way… “The elected officials in Washington have to stop protesting in Washington. They have to go back to their districts…show the consequences…show the school that isn’t operating…they have to make it real.” With social media, word will spread to neighboring districts—even red ones.

Yes think about how judges are supposed to decide if things the president does are constitutional, and why the richest man in the world who just bought the election might not be into that.

Just despicable and disgraceful. The US government is now indistinguishable from the mafia.

BREAKING: Ranking Member Raskin demands Attorney General Bondi halt illegal intimidation campaign targeting the DOJ’s Public Integrity Office.

“If no lawyer within earshot of the President is willing to give him that advice, then I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.” Damn. static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics...

When I heard Musk say this on Tuesday, my assumption was that it was a programming issue. Because I can code and have written to databases and because I am familiar with other examples of default values being misinterpreted. Yet somehow Musk isn't.

The interim US Attorney for the Southern District of New York, a FedSoc member and former Scalia clerk, has done more to publicly expose the corruption of the Trump administration this week at greater personal cost than any elected official I can think of.
