If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

USAID was founded by John F. Kennedy in 1961. The Kremlin has wanted to destroy it ever since then. So if you're seeing or repeating anti-USAID talking points -- remember that you're consuming or spreading propaganda from Moscow.

they are stealing data from the american people and depriving us of the transparency that we are entitled to by law. none of this is legal and not a single federal employee has any reason to comply.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

Feel deep in my bones that the backlash to all of this is going to be enormous. Not sure how it will manifest and when it will explode into view, but confident it’s coming.

Racists got tired of not being allowed to say the "n" word, so they decided to replace it with the weaponized term DEI. Prove me wrong.

A tale of Elon and his apologists: Elon lets Nazis back on his platform - "he's defending free speech" He regularly amplifies supremacist ideologies, memes and conspiracy theories - "he's doing it for engagement" He does the Nazi salute (twice) - "he has autism-ish" Elon is a Nazi. The End.

Everything that Trump said and did today -- all of it -- was entirely predictable based on his campaign, character, and first term in office. If you're surprised, you were either misinformed or not informed enough. We deserve everything that's about to come our way. Buckle up.

So the first-ever convicted felon president just pardoned 1500 of his felon co-conspirators, after we kept saying over and over that maybe it wasn't a good idea to elect a felon as president and that maybe we should imprison the felon when we had the chance? Got it.

The Senate confirmed Marco Rubio as Secretary of State by a vote of 99-0. Democrats offer an endless supply of goodwill to Republicans that will never be reciprocated.

Is it fine to call everyone who voted for this president racist, bigoted fuckwads, or are people still trying to pretend this had something to do with groceries??

Vivek Ramaswamy is in the Witness Protection Program from MAGA. Only Musk & Trump can openly call for immigrants to take high-paying American jobs & get away with it. Vivek doesn’t have the right skin color to pull that off without having to go into an extended period in hiding.

So, the MAGAincels who went from being experts on infectious diseases to experts on vaccines, military withdrawals, presidential immunity, firearm forms, voting rights, libel law and interoceanic waterways are now experts on wildfire management? Do I have that just about right?

My favorite part of Zuckerberg's Joe Rogan interview is when he suggests there is not enough masculine energy at his company, where two out of every three employees is a man.

Mel Gibson and Joe Rogan are telling people that Ivermectin cures stage 4 cancer. My mother is an NP who has spent her career working in oncology, and these lies will literally kill people.

Today's funeral for President Jimmy Carter is one of the nicest I've seen in a long time. The speeches were just right, and paid proper tribute to one of the greatest human beings America has ever produced. Farewell, President Carter. Thank you for your service. 🙏🇺🇸

x X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m. Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app? If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

The problems at WaPo are twofold. First, new publisher Will Lewis is in an untenable position. His first major act as publisher was to mislead (lie?) to the public about the process of the Kamala Harris editorial getting spiked.

It is important for all Americans to understand that Donald Trump has no intention of leaving office after taking it on January 20. None. Do I think he has a plan in mind already? Probably not. But is he taking his Oath of Office as a man who expects American democracy to continue? No, he is not.
