It's wild how many people have told me over the past few days "Criminals don't get due process" Wtf? Due process is how you figure out whether or not someone is a criminal And even then too many innocent people get locked up, and too many nonviolent offenders

Aside from the obvious direct harm, what's so irritating is that a handful of spoiled ignorant assholes are breaking things that we all built together. They weren't content to own almost everything, they had to wreck what little they didn't own. It's vandalism on a mass scale and has to be punished

Elon Musk has now illegally fired: - USDA employees amidst a bird flu outbreak - FAA chair amid a plane crash epidemic - People in charge of protecting us from nuclear attack At this point Musk has to be considered a terrorist attacking the United States.

it’s very fun to watch rightwingers make up insane bullshit and laugh at them for “believing” it but it’s a very intentional strategy to flood the online ecosystem with their narratives. they don’t believe all the shit they say but it serves their ends if everyone is talking about them all the time

Trump has given Elon Musk access to our government's highly-sensitive central payment system—and he's vowing to use it to cut off funding people are counting on. What will Musk target next? Cancer research? Food banks? Housing assistance? Veterans' benefits? This is not ok.

U.S. District Judge Loren AliKhan has extended the pause on Trump's freeze of federal loans and grants. Before issuing the order, the judge said a funding freeze would be "catastrophic" to organizations "designed to further the public interest."

Okay if I didn’t want to pay taxes before I really don’t want to now knowing that Elon Musk has access 🥴 I don’t know what’s going to make me spiral first. The coup itself, or the lack of reaction by elected officials. Congress? Homeland Security? Aliens? ANYONE???

I don't know what is wilder about this story, that Musk and his DOGE gang were able to force their access classified information, or that they are shutting down a major way that the US provides humanitarian aid as a way to save money rather than raise taxes on the rich or cut defense spending.

Elon Musk is NOT an elected official. DOGE is NOT a congressionally approved department in our government. We must call this what it is: A far-right oligarch trying to seize control of our government.

More than 600 staffers so far have been told to stay out of USAID headquarters as instructed by Musk who says Trump agreed with him on this decision. Musk’s DOGE agency has now also gained access to Medicare and Social Security payment info. Which he should not have. Trump is letting him run free.

First they came for USAID, and I did not speak out— because I don’t benefit directly from foreign aid.

This is how a dictator acts. Sending 30K migrants to Guantanamo—a place w/ repeated human rights violations—is an attempt to evade our legal system & act in the shadows hundreds of miles away. REMINDER—the U.S. affords weaker due process/legal rights for people detained there.

one thing going forward, after these 9 days: stop expelling your energy trying to educate or argue with Trump supporters. they’re the most brainwashed demographic and the most susceptible to propaganda. it’s their responsibility to unlearn their hate and they should feel isolated.
