3rd day in a row on the golf course while Musk runs the country. He didn’t even know yesterday that the head of the Social Security Admin resigned, and didn’t know SpaceX employees were working at the FAA/DOD, and claimed Medicaid wasn’t being cut when it’s being cut massively.

SCOOP: The top US election security watchdog has frozen all of its efforts to aid states in securing elections. The move represents the first major example of the country’s cyber defense agency accommodating Trump’s false claims of election fraud and online censorship.

“Trump administration officials fired more than 300 staffers tasked with managing the nation’s nuclear stockpile…without knowing what they did.” Gee, doesn’t this make you feel so safe?

Conservative billionaires are funding a coordinated effort to dismantle public education to pay for private school vouchers that largely benefit wealthy families and enable corporations to avoid their fair share in taxes. Now they have a friend in the White House.

The top health care companies in America spent 95% of their profits to make their CEOs & stockholders obscenely rich. How many Americans would be alive today if those companies spent $2.6 trillion on disease prevention and primary care, instead of stock buybacks and dividends?

Trump claimed that DOGE has uncovered billions in “fraud, waste, and abuse.” However, no evidence has been provided, and all public fraud claims from both Elon Musk and Trump have been debunked as false.

Not sure why some folks are saying we’re getting “close” to a constitutional crisis. The crisis began when the entire legislative branch, ie the Republican-controlled House & Senate, gave up their power so they can do Trump’s bidding. That, my friends, is a constitutional COLLAPSE.

A WIRED review of message boards, encrypted channels, social media platforms, online search trends, and public statements from influencers and lawmakers suggests that Musk and the actions of DOGE have come to dominate discussions among far-right and extremist communities.

Musk, Zuckerberg and Bezos are working with Trump for one very simple reason: They understand that Trump's policies are designed to make the wealthiest Americans even richer. These three men have become $232 billion richer since November. Not bad in a couple of months time!

Why aren’t Republicans on the Oversight Committee interested in doing any oversight? (Also, two thumbs up to Dems for forcing the motion and catching the Rs off guard initially.)

Get them out of government. Most not old enough to be elected to anything. One suspects they are part of Musk’s gaming posse.

What if there were a coup, the US government fell to a drug-addled oligarch who seized control of our money, secrets, and levers of power, and Corporate media did not report on it?
