Decades of sacrifice and work by generations of men and women across the globe up in smoke. Truly tragic. Tens of millions of American voters squandered the legacy of their parents and grandparents for the thrill of racism and “owning the libs.”

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.

A lot of people now see that Musk is a vile extremist. But many still struggle to accept that he is also an oblivious fool. Once you actually listen to what he has to say about the world, you realize it’s all faux-visionary nonsense layered on top of profound ignorance.

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

He’s the biggest fucking moron this world has ever seen. By miles.

And who determines what the executive’s legitimate power is, JD? The executive?! Come on. Let me put it in terms you’d get. It’s like football. The judges are the refs, and they say whether you’re in or out of bounds. And Musk is waaaaaay out of bounds with these takeovers of our systems.

I realized today that Trump, Musk, DOGE, Vance, Miller, Vought and their many collaborators have broken so many laws already that they know they have to destroy our government and entire way of life to stay out of jail. This is all or nothing. We should respond accordingly.

Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?

Someone should tell Peter Thiel is money won’t save him when their hate for the LGBTQ community is stronger.

It's ILLEGAL for special government employees to do government work that affects their own financial interests! Musk's companies got $3.3 BILLION in US government contracts in 2024, and now he's deciding who gets federal funding. House Judiciary Dems are calling on the DOJ to investigate NOW.

Many Americans chose not to believe what they were saying. Will we now believe what we are seeing? My latest for @nytopinion.nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/02/07/o...

NEW: During a status conference on suit over DOGE’s access to the Treasury’s payment system, an attorney for the Justice Department claims that Elon Musk does not have access to the system. Two Musk allies—Marko Elez and Tom Krause—do have access, according to DOJ attorney Brad Humphreys.

Why aren’t people suing Elon Musk and his cronies for accessing our data?! We know Trump will pardon all fed charges, but there are state privacy laws that are being violated here. Why aren’t criminal charges being brought against him?

Murphy: "The reality is this could get dystopian very quickly. If you were to start speaking ill of Elon Musk on social media, Musk might be able to stop or delay your tax refund, or your mom's Social Security benefit, in part because we have no window into what's happening at Treasury right now."

So, is Representative Harshburger going to introduce and vote for a Gaza AUMF? Because Trump lacks the legal authority to undertake this unhinged proposal.

Over the last nine days, the house has been out of session while the Democracy is sold for parts. Would have been nice had the Democrat come back on their own and sued, yelled, stood up, etc. Anything but stayed home

Like a corporate raid on the federal government. Except the raiders control the DOJ, The SEC and the Treasury Dept.

Buttigieg and the DOT used these terms for 4 years and had no accidents like this. It’s not the terminology, it’s having weekend Fox News hosts leading departments they aren’t qualified to lead causing this. Go back to The Real World, Sean.

Here's the speech if you haven't heard it. 13 minutes of your time. Share it with your American friends and neighbours, because they won't see it otherwise. Circulate it in Mexico and Denmark, France and the UK, Panama and Germany, Poland and Estonia, and especially -- especially -- Ukraine.

If Musk is actually doing what he says he's doing, then there is no functioning federal government. There is a criminal gang that's taken its place in a bloodless coup.

I’m so tired of this ‘mandate’ BS and ‘the American people said…’ nonsense. Trump didn’t win a majority of the popular vote, and beat Harris by one of the smallest popular vote margins (1.5%) in US history. If you factor in turnout, he got the votes of less than 1 in 3 eligible voters in the US.

We’re meant to calmly accept the absurd idea that any white man is innately qualified for any job or position, no matter what his education, resume or proven capabilities and any non-white man or woman inherently stole their way into employment via #DEI. This of course is pure, undiluted fascism.

We could’ve had a compassionate, intelligent leader and instead chose an unqualified, hateful moron, whose touch turns everything to ashes. Congrats, America.

More Democrats need to speak like this. Those that do will be rewarded. It will take a while for the current establishment base and donors to realize it and we're going to lose them and that's good for the long term health of the country. Let them go. Dead weight bringing us down.

A reminder that Trump, the luckiest man on earth, like in 2017, is inheriting a strong, growing economy with months & months of job growth & growing real wages (even though most Americans don’t know it!), & will almost certainly 1) take credit for it and 2) screw it all up again.

"Call me in a month and tell me how I was as president, motherfuckers," says Biden

How much media coverage was devoted to a false allegation that Joe Biden supposedly received a $5 million bribe from Burisma before becoming president? How much media coverage was devoted to whoever around the world pumped many billions into Trump’s new Crypto this week, & why?

And he’s doing the raids in blue states. Notice how he didn’t start them in red states whose voters want this. It’s never been about immigration, but always about punishing blue states.
