Oh the 80s.

Destruction for pleasure? Wtaf?

It’s not just Space X. Musk was able to save Tesla because of a loan from the Dept of Energy. Here he is in 2013 filled with gratitude for the federal agency & the taxpayers who saved his business. From reporting by @puck.news. airmail.news/issues/2025-...

None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Stop the steal — President Musk and Kennedy Center chairman Trump are robbing the American people.

"The moment was captured yesterday at what are now the more or less constant CPACs" 😆

This is climate arson, yes, but also the entire value proposition of Tesla, the reason for its insane stock price, is that it would end up the Amazon of electric cars: the only real game in town. Killing off non-Tesla electric car infrastructure is a gift to Musk.

We can’t call a Nazi salute a “gesture”

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Iowa pollster Ann Selzer filed an absolutely blistering response to Trump’s lawsuit against her and Des Moines Register, calling it a flagrant attempt to circumvent the First Amendment. www.thefire.org/sites/defaul...

F’in asshole

Holy crap. At his town hall last night, Rep. Rich McCormick compared *his own constituents* who asked him tough and fair questions to January 6 insurrectionists

*Taps 🎤 * Is this thing on? Trump wants control of the USPS so he can fuck with mail in voting. TRUMP WANTS CONTROL OF THE USPS SO HE CAN FUCK WITH MAIL IN VOTING.

Today's front page of The New York Post.

Murdoch’s New York Post today. #ukraine🇺🇦

Here's video of Steve Bannon doing a Sieg Heil today at CPAC. It is what it is and it's what Bannon intended. Don't let yourself be gaslit.

“I realized a lifelong dream to work for the premier environmental protection organization in the world. An organization that mission was to protect the people like me, who used to play on the slag mounds behind Buckeye Steel. Standing amongst the best, I felt an immense pride in my achievements.”

Epic

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

Amanda Zurawski, one of the Texas women who nearly died due to the states abortion ban, has been named one of Time’s Women of the Year.

Make up a “problem”, then solve the “problem”. That’s about all this administration is good for.

Why the f@ is he on a book tour when there is a democracy to save? Useless.

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

Unfortunately we have one at the top.

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who agrees with General Milley that Americans do not owe our allegiance to a King, Queen, or a wannabe dictator. We owe our allegiance to the Constitution. Fuck the nonsense trump says about being a king.

“If you think fertilized eggs are people but parents who've crossed oceans with their kids aren't, stop pretending your concerns are religious.”

Republican senators are traitors to the international order that has kept this country safe for the better part of eighty years. They are traitors to their own constituents. They are traitors to everything that has actually made America great.

* EXCLUSIVE - US DECLINING TO CO-SPONSOR UN GENERAL ASSEMBLY RESOLUTION BACKING UKRAINE AND CONDEMNING RUSSIAN AGGRESSION AHEAD OF WAR ANNIVERSARY, DIPLOMATIC SOURCES SAY @reuters.com

Schools are closed all over central Iowa. Why? Dangerous wind chills of 30 below. How do we know to keep our children safe? The National Weather Service, which Trump plans to destroy.

Spineless, yellow-bellied, lily-livered, weak-kneed, pusillanimous chickenshits.

As someone who is getting very close to SS age, I am appalled at this for any and all recipients.

Trump receives widespread backlash to social post calling himself ‘king’

Screaming in to the void… “Who in America ever heard of “critical race theory,” for example, before Republican operatives defined it as a threat and started winning elections on it?” www.thebulwark.com/p/democrats-...

Honorable

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Not forgotten.

This biggest DEI hire in history.

This needs to be repeated daily. Or maybe hourly.

There he goes. Telling the world his next move.

Dark Pence is back.

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Rep. Jasmine Crockett exposes near $1 billion in new contracts for Musk in just 2 weeks: "This is nothing more than a money grab. He's not out there trying to save money for the American people, he's lining his pockets."
