I'd like to bring this multimillion-dollar photo-op to the attention of Elon Musk and DOGE. Instead of firing food inspectors and air traffic controllers and cancelling critical medical research at NIH, stop this outrageous waste of our people's tax dollars!

JD Vance owns AcreTrader, an app that lets wealthy—often foreign—investors buy up U.S. farmland. Guess who’s deliberately tanking farm economies so JD and his billionaire tech buddies can scoop it up for pennies. civileats.com/2024/09/18/j...

The Trump official currently dismantling USAID was caught in a secret meeting with a group of pro-Russian separatists in the Balkans. Those he met with are under American sanctions for trying to restart the Bosnian war in the name of Christian nationalism. 1/

For any Republicans out there-- don't you see what's happening? Your elected officials, drunk with power, are quietly and quickly getting filthy rich. And in exchange, they're cutting your Medicaid, cutting your education funding, cutting SNAP benefits, cutting medical research.

It's getting tiring to keep saying this, but for posterity's sake I will: any previous administration would have been instantly sunk by this. Before January 20, 2017, this would have been the most stunning corruption scandal in the history of the American justice system. Now, it's...a Thursday.

I was operating blissfully free of the knowledge that Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas is a long-time, well-known porn addict, but thanks to @jaywillis.net, that little factoid is now lodged in my head.

Whether it's Hillary Clinton sharing risotto tips on a private email server or Elon Musk giving full access to all government information to a nineteen-year old named Big Balls with ties to a child pornography collective known for its extortion techniques, both sides have played loose with security.

Far-right populists much more likely than the left to spread fake news – study

Their aim is nothing short of a new Dark Ages. Anti-science, anti-education, anti-democracy, in favor of needless human suffering. NIH cuts billions of dollars in biomedical funding, effective immediately www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

The Musk/ Trump White House’s wildly inaccurate claims about USAID spending Eleven out of 12 claims about the agency’s work are misleading, wrong or lack context. By Glenn Kessler www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

New: A 2nd DOGE staffer has amplified extremists online, including Nick Fuentes and Andrew Tate www.reuters.com/world/us/sta...

New from 404 Media: inside the gov meeting where Musk ally laid out plans for data sharing across gov/AI. We got audio. In the call an employee pushed back and said the plan would be “illegal.” Musk ally said “we should still push forward and see what we can do.” www.404media.co/things-are-g...

The Tech Bros glorify themselves, technology, colonialism, imperialism, monarchy, billionaire-ism, accelerationism, & risk. They plan to colonize via “network states” & charter cities. They are obsessed w/ IQ & intrigued w/ race science & surveillance. They admire Curtis Yarvin & Nick Land. 1/

These are the clowns Congress refuses to stop.

For the visual learners...

This is a hostile takeover of the federal government by a private citizen of unlimited means with no restrictions and no transparency. Welcome to the Deep State www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...

Yeah, how about not dissolving the air safety advisory commission at the FAA. As your team did last week.

Seems relevant about the hiring freeze Trump implemented that applied to FAA air traffic controllers. democrats-transportation.house.gov/news/press-r...

FAA says a military helicopter collided with the American Airlines passenger jet from Wichita near DCA. There must be immediate hearings on how the federal government/Department of Defense allowed this to happen and if removal of safety protocols and recent personnel changes led to this incident.

Really love this cartoon from the great Michael De Adder. The outpouring of support coming in has been truly amazing! Thanks everybody!

I don’t know who did this, but thank you 🤣

NEW: Merrick Garland should drop the Florida case and release both volumes of the report. My latest, with a link to email the Attorney General. Please share widely! www.muellershewrote.com/p/merrick-ga...

My message to Zuck

x X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m. Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app? If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

This is a massive, urgent report. If you read it all and follow all the in-text citations, you will be as anxious as I am right now. Not just America but the world is headed for ruin under the Trump-Musk autocracy we’re now just fourteen days away from. These men aren’t well, and they intend evil.

This is what happens when the Oval Office comes with shiny new criminal immunity and a guy willing to use it. "I'm trying to understand what the disincentive is from turning the Oval Office into, you know, the seat of criminal activity in this country." - KBJ

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public. He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit. Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

The same people who say evil billionaires like George Soros control the world elected a cadre of evil billionaires like Elon Musk to control the world.

Bezos has really upped the ante for billionaires debasing themselves to gain favor with Trump.👇 Cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit the Washington Post because it refused to print a cartoon mocking tech and media billionaires for sucking up to Trump. anntelnaes.substack.com/p/why-im-qui...

"You voted for the guy because he was anti-immigration. Now he's going to let immigrants take the high-paying jobs but throw the fruit pickers out. His boss told you to go F your own face, then scolded you the next day, saying you should be nicer. What am I missing here?"

ProPublica and @documented.bsky.social identified 25 employers that, despite histories of wage theft, have received contracts worth more than a collective $500 million from city and state agencies since 2018. (Published July 2024)

This thread hits home for me. My father had a rheumatic fever heart. My brother and one of my best friends got HPV driven oral cancer, and another friend died from HPV caused rectal cancer. RFK Jr has no business at HHS. Call your Senators to prevent this travesty. (202) 224-3121

Both Texas and Georgia are destroying evidence of all maternal mortality, blocking proof that women are dying from abortion bans. This story has a lot more going on than you think. Especially since Republicans are lying about the public cases. www.salon.com/2024/12/02/d...

America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth. The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%. Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.
