Lol just heard the NPR story about the DOGE guy who lost his job when he said he was surprised at how hard it was to find inefficiencies in the federal govt because he came from Silicon Valley where companies always have lots of people sitting around doing nothing

no it’s actually because of the slavery

Thiel labels himself a libertarian, not us. And as he enables fascism, it just shows that the supposed libertarian hostility to intrusive state power was always bullshit. They just wanted control over that intrusive state power for their own benefit.

I keep seeing people say Musk “failed” in his government takeover. No, he did not fail. He shut down investigations into his businesses, he garnered huge contracts, and he stole the personal data of everyone in the US. That’s not a “failure.” This motherfucker won, and won big.

Ehud Olmert on previously defending Israel against accusations of war crimes: “In recent weeks I’ve been no longer able to do so. What we are doing in Gaza now is a war of devastation: the indiscriminate, limitless, cruel and criminal killing of civilians. […] Yes, Israel is committing war crimes.”

Disappointed, Gretchen? Really? This criminal is about to pardon people who PLANNED TO KILL YOU and all you can muster is disappointment? I'd be livid and calling out Trump's encouragement of literal murder at every opportunity. Instead, you pull a tepid Susan Collins. Pathetic.

Trump has made the White House into a storefront for open bribery. Presidential pardons and other actions are for sale to the highest bidder. And the Republicans previously apoplectic about Hunter Biden are now totally silent.

Anyone with any exposure to Trump should have known he would leverage the immunity SCOTUS gave him to anoint himself king. That SCOTUS did it anyway shows that using the BS Unitary Executive legal theory to dismantle the New Deal was more important to them than protecting the country from autocracy.
