The forest was shrinking but the trees kept voting for the axe, for the axe was clever and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood, he was one of them.

Boycott these Trump-loving companies.

Why are Trumpies so SCARED of everything? Cartels, immigrants, brown & black people, vaccines, non-English languages, education, LGBTQ people, contrails. "Get guns! Close borders! Remove rights! Legalize only stuff I like/believe in!" How about moving to an island to live out your crazy elsewhere?

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

The best sleep is right after you hit the snooze button... And when there's not a fascist dictator in the White House dismantling and destroying the government.

Elon is worth about $400 billion today. What's stopping him from dropping a few spare billion in bribes to the biggest Dem opponents and telling them to show mock outrage but actually play along?

Stop scrolling a minute please. Hear me out. Given that Musk just strolled in and took over the federal payment system, so far without pushback or consequence, doesn't Stephen Spoonamore's post now seem even MORE plausible? open.substack.com/pub/spoonamo...

A big portion of our federal government has been taken over, True Believers passing onto the Senate, Elon taking over federal payments system, talk of taking over Greenland, tariffs... And the wrecking ball isn't stopping. While the Dems introduce a bill? Into a Congress where they're the minority?

I like it.

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

It's shaking up to be one hell of a bumpy ride. Do yourself a favor for some food security and buy some packets of seeds for the Summer. Start freezing some meats and meals. Buy a vacuum sealer and a dehydrator. Look into getting some long storage, freeze dried meals. Be prepared.

To recap, Trump: -Forced out the FAA chief at Musk's insistence -Imposed a hiring freeze that reportedly included air traffic controllers -Fired the TSA head and gutted a key aviation safety committee -Blamed the DCA crash on DEI This is disastrous leadership.

In a sane reality, this might actually matter.

Just when the GOP hits rock bottom, they get handed pick axes and dynamite.

Here we are

We'd better not call Teslas swasticars because that upsets Musk when we call Teslas swasticars, so please don't call Teslas swasticars. 😂

Where'd our Democrats go? Hellooooo? Hostile takeover going on... Anyone home?

The following companies have donated to Trump and Project 2025. Try to avoid giving them your money.

“I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time -- when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries;

Oh, be quiet, Mitch.

As best you can, ignore him.

We keep hearing about masculinity from the Zuckerbergs of the world-- this woman has shown more courage in this 60-second clip than any of the tech billionaires have shown in recent memory as they grovel at Trump's feet.

So I guess the government is now cool with you taking a Cleveland Steamer on the House Majority's desk, if that's your thing?

I can't be the only one thinking that Musk is going to buy TikTok, right?

Focus on issues, rather than the drama and things "going viral". We don't need more proof that MAGA is insane, callous, deceitful, and evil. The supporters are idiotic fools, most of whom can't be swayed. Move on. To be effective, we need to zero in on problems, not theatrics. Eye on the ball!

It's the first 7 hours of the new Trump administration, and one of his most ardent supporters is already writing an article begging him not to become a king. Even in kindergarten I think we would call this a get-your-head-out-of-your-ass moment: you backed a sociopath. www.thefp.com/p/joe-lonsda...

Over on the blue bird app, they are so embarrassed that Trump cancelled the inauguration and screwed them out of money, that they are making up reasons like assasination attempts etc. It’s going to be a big letdown for them these four years when they realize how weak Trump really is
