Elon Musk instructed federal workers to respond to an email summarizing their weekly accomplishments, a tactic he previously used to downsize staff at X. “Please reply to this email with approximately five bullet points of what you accomplished this week and CC your manager,” the message stated.

Why do 6 or so people get paid 10 million a week?

In every single interview I’ve done with international media since Trump took power I’ve been asked: Why are there no mass protests? There are many reasons, of course, but the utter refusal of the self-proclaimed “fourth estate” to communicate clearly what is happening has to be high on the list.

Insulin should be free. Happy Tuesday.

CSPAN Caller from West Virginia: I’m a diabetic and I’m on Medicare. When Biden was in there, my insulin was $6 for a 28 day supply. I just went to CVS, it went back up to $80…

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

“Patriots” working against the US constitutional limit of two terms for a president.

Winning a civil war is my guess. They're scared of an uprising. They want people who won't hesitate to kill Americans who try to stand in their way. We will be getting to that part.

Is everyone noticing that WOMEN are the ones speaking out the most, taking the most action, and standing up to Trump the most? Because...we are. That's why Republicans want to keep us down.

#watching A Thousand Blows on Disney+ and damn, I love a badass b*tch. Mary Carr is that b*tch. www.bbc.com/culture/arti...

Arizona has elected some weak ass... Woman up, gentlemen.

I'll read this eventually. It doesn't matter if it's true. We all know it.

What a petty little bitch. It must be a requirement for the Trump DoJ.

Never forget: Trump should be in prison.

Something odd just happened—an article that had been widely published on media sites has suddenly disappeared without any retraction or explanation. Many may have come across it on Reddit.

Experts say the conflicts posed by Tom Krause’s dual roles are unprecedented in the modern era.

That terrorism charge is still insane. He scared the richy rich people, that's terrorism in our country, lol.

All Russia needs to do is wait until the next election and vote Putin out of power. Now, do you see how stupid that sounds?

USPS = elections!

I’m shocked that the fascist administration is stripping even more immigrants of their right to due process, says the man who co-sponsored the Laken Riley Act, which strips immigrants of their right to due process

Duck Duck Go has a cute little button where I can say: "nope, I don't ever want a dumb AI bot to generate unneeded energy giving me stupid answers." On Google, I had to keep putting "fuck" in my search queries (or -ai) to get the AI to STFU.

I'm already seeing the CPAC shit. I dread seeing more 😬😤

BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: While the Trump Justice Department is telling a federal court that Elon Musk has nothing to do with DOGE, Republican members of Congress are telling their constituents that DOGE is “led by Elon Musk.” See below 👇

This is a win. For now. I cannot imagine who Kentucky will send us next 😑

Men, like Musk, are too insecure and emotional to be leaders.

strongly disagree with everyone saying that we should just pretend they *are* going to do this, because that's how you create the permission for cutting funding to medicaid, medicare, and social security. don't cheer the fake carrot when they're promising the stick.

People should stop coming here. This is the majority of the type of people who run the towns outside of phx and tucson. Disgusting.

Fucking GOP traitors to democracy

What Ilan Wurman and Randy Barnett are doing isn’t best understood as legal scholarship. It’s more like wartime public relations, or like SEO. It’s creating bullshit that will give dishonest judges a pretext to pretend that there is a serious constitutional dispute. They’re fascism’s fixers.

NEW: DOGE technologists Edward Coristine—the 19-year-old known online as “Big Balls”—and Kyle Schutt are now listed as staff at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.
