“That is why Trumpists are so focused on “ending DEI” in the federal workforce. They see anti-discrimination and inclusion as a ladder of upward mobility for people they do not believe should have one.”

i barely thought about Elon Musk until the Trapped Thai Schoolboys Incident, upon which it became extremely apparent he was both stupid and insane

Musk took over the US government with graft and is using it—in combination with his space launch firm—to exploit an allied country that’s suffering under Russian invasion for its mineral rights. The scheme is so imperiously evil I feel like audiences wouldn’t find it believable in a Bond villain.

wow so all of a sudden its “racist” and “sexist” to indiscriminately fire every woman and minority you can find simply bc you assume they are unqualified based on nothing more than their race and gender?

Embarrassing confession - I heard some references to Jeffries on a "book tour" and thought it was some wry joke. But no! He co-wrote a children's book about democracy and is touring it during the first Trump recess week.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

I feel like a lot of very normie very moderate liberals prefer AOC to most other congressional Dems and there’s something there, something to build on.

I know it was hard to tell at the time and hindsight is 20 20 but one early sign that maybe these Dems shouldn’t have voted to confirm someone who Trump 2.0 picked for a cabinet level post is that Trump had picked them for a cabinet level post www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

the whole 2020-2024 era of “dems shouldnt aggressively use the levers of power bc then republicans will do the same thing when theyre elected” sure looks dumb as dog shit right now huh

the line about how trump is just trolling or joking about the “king” thing is belied somewhat by the fact that his administration’s explicit position is he can do whatever he wants and that everyone in every branch of government needs to bow to his demands or be banished

In a very genuine way we need to salute dudes like this who are just big guys in baseball caps who say things like “I’m a Christian so I think we should care about everybody”

This is the bigger problem of right wing dominance on social media and influencers. It's artificial, it's purchased and continually renewed w/ ad buys & placement buys. It costs a ton of money to run a campaign like this. That's what the left needs, but the rich who claim to be left don't invest.

I understand why these stories exist but it’s important to be clear that he’s not “saving” 16 billion, he’s choosing, personally, without oversight, to wipe out 16 billion dollars of government services to veterans and the disabled and food safety etc etc

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

it’s incomprehensible to me that you can see even a fraction of what republicans are doing or believe and think working with them is remotely a possibility. you need to crush them, like republicans are currently doing to everyone else

COMPLAINT: trying to counter these guys is like playing whac-a-mole! REALITY: Whac-a-mole is: --fun for the folks holding the mallets --rough going for the moles --dumbass moles just keep on exposing themselves --it's something a whole group can enjoy --feels good inside to thwack an asshole

if i’m forced into some gladiator style fight to the death and someone hands me a spoon as a weapon, im gonna yell at them and tell them i need a sword and shield not a fucking spoon. not because that person is the “real enemy” or because i have bad priorities but because im in a fight to the death

i’ll just add that it’s not enough to destroy their brand, you have to destroy the sources of their power. they can continue fucking everything up from the courts and in the information environments. you have to go after their structural advantages

this is one of the funniest things a national politician has ever posted. he live-tweets a tv show during an ongoing constitutional crisis and when someone tells him they find this irritating he’s like “hey listen, this show meant a lot to me when i was a 30-year-old boy”
