Our military has to get vaccinated before they go ANYWHERE. Smallpox, tuberculosis, malaria, yellow fever. These fuckface pieces of shit know vaccines work.

It was kind of hard for this to break through the unified media chorus heralding Musk as the savior of mankind (this is not a joke)

Musk is playing with trump-lovers again. Can u hear him snickering?!? Now he is spreading BS that he wants the people to get $5,000/$8000 cks from the money he’s stealing from gov., programs that he’s destroyed. Oh u stupid sheep- nothing they do is to benefit anyone but themselves!!

Elon Musk verified "@hitlergov" as a government account on X

Shoutout to New Orleans because ALL our local news made the move to the skyline 😂 @gambitweekly.bsky.social @wwno.bsky.social @wwlradio.bsky.social @wdsu6.bsky.social @fox8live.com @lailluminator.com @nolanews.bsky.social

His poll numbers are TANKING.

MenaceNews [SATIRE] -- DOGE team requiring all fed workers to "email 5 bullets of what you accomplished each week" or be fired. Straight white male employees must also email "5 women you sexually harassed, 5 BiPOC ppl you microaggressed & 5 trans people you misgendered or mispronouned" weekly.

If you want to share your concerns with CBC about the “51st state” Cross-country Eff-up, I’m told the emails to use are [email protected] and [email protected] for the ombudsperson and editor in chief respectively

Idiots like Elon think of the "federal government" as like this thing that is separate from the American people, and not millions of Americans citizens working in communities all over the country. The reason they have this wrong is because they don't know anything at all.

The application to patent my "only footie pajamas" invention has been returned with "EVER HEARD ABOUT SOCKS FUCKWAD" stamped on it, and crushing as it to realize my idea was not uniqie, if enough people have made this error to merit having a stamp made then the hurtful language feels excessive.

Every Dem Senator and Rep should publicly call Musk a dick and dare that dick DC US Atty to "investigate" them all.

"The Prime Minister agreed," the White House lied.

'prison rape shouldn't happen to anyone' is one of those sentiments that should not be nearly as controversial as it is

I'm back. Observation: In Arizona and Utah the local TV and print media spent a lot of time talking about how Trump was screwing over the national parks. So some stuff is penetrating.

Trump firing ALL senior JAG officers is the makings of a military enforced coup down the line. EVERY fascist movement in history had to have loyalists installed before the will of the regime could be carried out to ensure there was no resistance. This wont be fought out in the courts for 4 years.

Gen. C.Q. Brown was at the U.S.-Mexico border when he was fired. Gen. Brown was fired as he was evaluating the military’s role in supporting U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CPB). Fired as he was tending to one of Trump’s top priorities — border security.

Just a reminder that the neither the U.S. Digital Service (which has been converted into DOGE) nor OPM has any legal authority to direct every single federal government employee to give them a job summary. Literally no such authority at all.

“We are the federal law.” “L'État, c'est moi” — but in this case imperial we (which he undoubtedly doesn’t know about) means the villain duo in which he deludes himself he’s the dominant partner.

So everyone who has PTO on Monday is going to be fired? Governance by surprise is stupid.

this is an act of unspeakable violence. it benefits no one, it doesn’t move a number on a balance sheet. it only guarantees that every one of these incarcerated transgender people will be tortured.

As we wrap up another week of the Trump and Musk horror show, it’s nice to be able to share some more great news with everyone.

let's help her, yes? please share if you can't donate <3

Gen-X knows 🤣

Let's say their names: * General CQ Brown, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff: FIRED FOR BEING BLACK * Admiral Lisa Franchetti, Chief of Naval Operations: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE * Admiral Linda Fagan, Coast Guard Commandant: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE All replaced by less qualified white guys.

NEW: Whitman Walker, a LGBTQ health center in Washington DC, has scrubbed its site of descriptions of gender affirming care services. This is pure cowardice and stabbing the trans community in the back. While services are not affected, it will limit access to resources if patients can't find them.

📌It’s about time ALL our retired military flag officers started showing some damn leadership by speaking out against this authoritarian attack on our nation. You know damn well that what is happening right now is WRONG.

AP sues Trump, stocks crash, consumer confidence plummets, Trump fires the ICE director over poor deportation numbers, GOP has horrible fundraising numbers, and more. Catch up on today's news!

LawDork [Feb 21] -- NAACP, Lambda Legal, and other nonprofits file suit against anti-DEI and anti-trans Exec Orders on grounds they violate First Amendment and equal protection guarantees and exceed Presidential authority. [@rikiwilchins.bsky.social‬]

A deep dive into DOGE data discovers a disturbing directory of discrepancies, distortions, delusions, and deception. Dismal. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

Every headline is like "Trump Appoints The Biggest Piece Of Shit You've Ever Heard Of To Head Up The New Office Of We Hate Trans People Soooo Much" and the first line is something like "Democrats valiantly perform interpretive dance to express displeasure just before confirming."

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

Jesus Christ what craven cowards. I know it's always been rainbow capitalism but this fucking hurts. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

This is even more unconstitutional than usual. Article I gives Congress the power to establish the post office. It cannot be "dissolve[d]" by the Executive.

I am sure that the National Academies are under intense pressure. That doesn’t excuse complying with efforts to undermine scientific facts. These are very frightening times if you know your history.

NEW: San Francisco AIDS Foundation leads a group of nonprofits suing Trump and others over anti-trans, anti-diversity EOs. @lambdalegal.bsky.social is representing the groups, who are seeking to have the orders and efforts to implement them declared "unlawful and unconstitutional."

Musk "can't exercise authority that's significant in the executive branch if he's not an 'officer,' and he can't be an 'officer' b/c his office wasn't created by law." But if he does have great authority and reports only to the president, he must be confirmed by the Senate. – @gtconway.bsky.social

"just have him take a piss test! what is he hiding? if he won't take a drug test, he's clearly hiding something! what is he hiding?" &c, &c. but he's a private citizen! "oh, is he? so why is he getting access to top secret data? why is he getting data on his competitors? what's going on?" &c, &c.

📌NYT Headline: “Trump flips the script on Russia, blames Zelenskyy” Sorry, but what the fuck are we supposed to do with crap like this? 📌”Trump betrays Zelenskyy, surrenders to Russia” There, fixed it.
