When Rupert Murdoch’s rags turn on you …

The 'find out' phase is here.

@mattdaviescartoon.bsky.social Kash is King by Matt Davies.

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

Spineless, yellow-bellied, lily-livered, weak-kneed, pusillanimous chickenshits.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

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.

Chris Murphy: "My prediction is that if you vote for Kash Patel, more than any other confirmation vote you make, you will come to regret this one to your grave."

Let's participate and please, spread this around...

Records show how DOGE planned Trump’s DEI purge — and who gets fired next. 
A DOGE team plans to fire federal workers who are not in DEI roles and employees in offices that protect equal rights, internal documents show www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

We wrote about how Musk is using X as a propaganda tool to demonize each of the agencies and programs that DOGE targets for cuts, providing air cover for his engineers' incursions — with the truth as collateral damage. www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2... w/ @drewharwell.com

I thought Elon and the tech bros were geniuses?

These special elections are important for Democrats. If you're able to, please support the Democratic candidates, so that we can flip these seats. If you live in these districts, vote blue. Turning the House would be a huge deal and give them more power to stop the fuckery.

This is probably the most accurate take.

Alfie's 1st snow day.

"If Trump is denying access to outlets that refuse to lick his boots, then any media outlet that has access is compromised. Journalists who want to be worthy of the name have a moral obligation to follow the AP’s example in enraging the toddler in chief."

Do people not understand what’s happening with the Eric Adams thing? The memo instructing the prosecution to be dropped explicitly said it was because he was carrying out the president’s agenda. It was “you’re working for me, so we’re letting you go.” It was an explicitly corrupt bargain

See here's how to do a headline. fortune.com/2025/02/13/e...

Eventually the Adams case will trickle down to someone who will just follow orders and dismiss it. Make that person historically infamous. (Recall it was Robert Bork who eventually followed Nixon’s order to fire Archibald Cox)

Valor Danielle Sassoon, Acting U.S. attorney for SDNY - refuses to drop Adams charges and resigns John Keller, Acting head of DOJ Public Integrity Section - refuses and resigns Kevin Driscoll, Acting head of DOJ Criminal Division - refuses and resigns www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

1/So, the guy who is supposedly fighting waste & corruption in government just got a $400 mil contract with that same government he’s supposedly overseeing for his trucks that get, let’s just say less than stellar reviews www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/u...

Europe needs to back Ukraine with everything then freeze Trump out. Make him absolutely unimportant

Yes and no. That little nepotism baby is already tuning up to be a malignant narcissist. His father is creating a monster.

🚨 WHOA!!! Sen. Whitehouse: Mark my words. This Patel guy will come back to haunt you. Every piece of evidence shows that.

Elon Musk is developing a new payment platform called “X Money.” Guess which agency would be making sure that Elon’s new project couldn’t scam you or steal your sensitive personal data? The CFPB.

Every Senator who votes to confirm RFK Jr. today should be voted out of office. Pass it on.

Just fuuuuuuuuuck
