We are arms dealers to terrorists.

Interesting thing for the President to say about a person who, according the government’s lawyers, “has no actual or formal authority to make government decisions himself” and “only has the ability to advise the President, or communicate the President’s directives.”

Idiocracy was a documentary

by the way these are literally the exact same dumbass motherfuckers, not like them, the literal exact same fucking guys, saying government is inefficient and you should cancel it to give them all the governments money so they can provide you services instead

This is how it’s done.

Please please please goad Musk into flying on one of his totally safe rockets.

NEW: Georgia’s governor promotes his Medicaid work requirement as a national model for reform. Yet the program has cost taxpayers $86M, three-quarters of which has gone to consultants, and enrolled less than 3% of the quarter-million Georgians eligible.

i will become a total shill for whichever politician decides to become the joe mccarthy of rooting out silicon valley ideology and influence

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.

Man is going to charge you $100 to save you a nickel. And saving that nickel is also going to end up costing you $5000 at some point down the line. But it's nothing new, that's always been the definition of conservative economics, he just thinks it's groundbreaking because he's a dunce.

Bro got out-biohacked, skill issue

Due to activities of DOGE, a surge of U.S. government infrastructure began appearing on what’s known as “the search engine of Internet-connected devices”, thus making cyber-espionage easier than ever cyberintel.substack.com/p/doge-expos...

I wish that journalists would stop uncritically buying into Musk's framing of what DOGE is doing as an audit. You can tell it is not an audit because it is being done by people with zero experience in auditing and the methodology is "poke around in files, looking for keywords without any context."

This reads like the opening paragraph of a novel so bleakly dystopian you'd put it down after five pages

look, i am not qualified for, frankly, much, but i am absolutely well qualified to tell you that this is a man is who under the influence of a staggering amount of amphetamines

A historic graphic of corruption. The 11 federal agencies so far targeted for firings or dismantling by Elon Musk have more than 30 ongoing investigations into his companies. (📸 Malika Khurana for NYT)

If we want to save some more taxpayer money, the government could freeze payments to SpaceX. Last year, it spent more than 400 times as many taxpayer dollars on SpaceX services than it did on Politico Pro subscriptions. Surely we don't need to be paying for a *second* space program.

“In 2022–23, the number of students ages 3–21 who received special education and/or related services under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) was 7.5 million, or the equivalent of 15 percent of all public school students.” nces.ed.gov/programs/coe....

His administration is literally composed of men who beat and batter women.

The people who think they are good at everything because they are good at coding are also bad at coding.

My deep belief is all the billionaire freaks want the same thing - the freedom to be pedophiles

Should go without saying but the point of diversity in hiring is to find _better_-qualified candidates outside of stagnant social networks that don't reward merit, like the kind of network that would put an MTV personality with a marketing degree in charge of the Department of Transportation

Again, still, always: in an even halfway functional country this guy would be in prison for fraud, he's on an earnings call telling people outright lies about what his company is going to do

hi bret

We're finally dismantling the federal government! Sure hope it doesn't serve essential functions that I've taken for granted my whole life

This morning I read that DeepSeek used training data generated from other language models which has companies like OpenAI fuming, and I can't stop thinking about how there's a lesson in there

Colombia: We're not taking shackled detainees returned on military flights. Transport them with dignity Trump: Trade war! Colombia: OK Trump: Fine, no more shackled detainees returned on military flights Colombia: Good. Was that so hard? Trump: They gave in!

AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

Guys like joe rogan are funny because they still think smoking weed that they buy legally from places that look like an apple store makes them hunter s thompson

Four examples of Democratic messaging since yesterday. I know which one I'm supporting. And voting for.

that's right

It must also be said that the resistance of the broader US public to the lure of fascism in the 1930s was not due to any moral clarity but because they were relentlessly propagandized by FDR and allies to reject these ideas and embrace more liberal ones. They weren’t better people than we are.

[guy who in a truly meritocratic system would never have been allowed near a newsroom or uttered a single syllable that was heard by more than three people] man we have got to get these diversity hires outta here asap

This is, though, another opportunity not to ask "How do we help her message reach the broader public?" but to ask "Why doesn't my member of Congress talk like this?"
