I take the bold stance that misogyny is extremely bad even when it’s applied to white cis straight women with federal jobs who kinda remind you of your mom.

The reply email inbox for this “what did you do last week” email is [email protected], so, you know, definitely don’t send them any unrelated messages that would interfere with their ability to carry out Elon’s dumbass bullshit

So Mad King Elon posted this about two hours ago and I've now seen one of the actual emails. Not going to mention the agency my source works out. But suffice it to say it's entirely shuttered. So everyone there was forced to stop working more than a week ago. The actual email is one is that in ...

I wouldn’t think “moved to root out diversity initiatives” is a useful phrase for journalism at all, but using it as a euphemism for a purge of high ranking black officers is downright Orwellian.

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.

Thinking about how there was a whole right-wing Tea Party movement during the Obama years that many assured was motivated by concern over executive power and had nothing at all to do with race.

Does Musk just run a mail order service for his semen or what. (Also: zero sympathy for anyone still getting knocked up by Elon Musk and then getting mad that he's a shitty father, there is NO excuse for your dumb decisions, Ashley St Clair)

I have voted absentee via USPS in every election for roughly twenty years. Including overseas. This wouldn’t be the first time Republicans tried to disenfranchise the military.

"Trump Is Planning to Take Control of the Postal Service, Officials Say" The USPS employs around 600,000 people. Think about the hit to our economy, let alone the employees. BTW: The government doesn't fund the USPS. This is pure privatizing graft. Gift link. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

As if this weren't cool enough on its own, a recent DOJ OIG report found that US Marshals special deputation had "insufficient policies and an inadequate oversight structure," and provided warrantless arrest authority for federal misdemeanors even though statute only authorizes this for felonies.

I just watched that clip of Elon talking to the Newsmax host while high & I have nothing funny to say. Just... it's starkly terrifying that a drug-addicted Nazi billionaire has taken control of the US government, & that that is not in the least a hyperbolic or subjective summary of what is going on.

If you de-zoot the toots here, he’s saying he spent $44b on twitter as part of his right wing political project—which is both obvious and something you can’t say in the newspaper.

No! If you watch an old video of Elon, like this 2010 tour of SpaceX, it's obvious that he is physically and mentally almost a completely different person. He's dweebier and more earnest, but his cognition and speech are also way more fluid and coherent. youtu.be/0lJWmhpextE?...

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau exists to protect Americans from predatory lenders, junk fees, and fraud. Shutting it down does nothing more than give sketchy companies a free pass to prey on the public. We’re not going to let that happen.

Well-meaning articles saying "Musk is searching for Social Security fraud; it's not common though" need to stop even this level of pandering. He is NOT "searching for fraud." He is MAKING FALSE ACCUSATIONS OF FRAUD so that he can weaken/kill the program. Tell the truth or stfu.

The reporters at Texas Observer have been doing incredible investigative work lately, the kind of work that places like the WaPo used to do with a much larger budget before it got bought up and then slowly hollowed out by a billionaire sycophant who'd rather go into space than live in a democracy.
