So, which is it? If this info wasn’t classified, that in itself would be a scandalous screw-up that must be explained. And if it was classified, then the Trump administration lied to Congress and to the American people.

There are a few problems with the richest man donating internet service to the White House...(a) Conflicts of interest; (b) Musk already collects billions from gov't contracts; (c) if employees are using Starlink, Musk could have access their data.

Holy shit. This happened last night at the townhall of MAGA Congresswoman Harriet Wageman, who defeated Liz Cheney in deep red Wyoming, where Trump won with over 45%, the biggest margin in the nation. Give 'em hell.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Elon Musk strongly embraces and endorses Germany’s AfD. The AfD is a far-right political party, labeled right-wing-extremist by Germany’s domestic intelligence service. The AfD embraces and endorses the horrific ideology and legacy of Hitler and Nazis. Seeing Musk striking a Sieg Heil pose…

There were over 900 manatees at Blue Springs this week, an all time high. We went last Friday when over 700 were counted. Lots of young ones, so great to see. I will probably go here on Monday, I certainly won’t be watching any news coverage!

More good news for those looking to exit Meta’s social app ecosystem. An independent dev is building a photo-sharing app for #Bluesky called Flashes. It's powered by the same tech that underpins Bluesky, the AT Protocol, and has been built using code from the devs earlier Bluesky client, Skeets.
