Ketamine is wild

Note how most of the audience sits and watches approvingly.

I posted this longer version on X #Emails2DOGE cc: [email protected]

A Trump supporter who was fired from the IRS, told NBC10 he didn’t see this coming from Trump: “I thought that someone with his business acumen would have come in with a fine-tooth comb and actually found it instead of coming in with a wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason"

This is Third World Country SHIT www.cbpp.org/blog/house-r...

Whether in aerospace or nations — both of which are mature entities — big and rapid changes too quickly will cause systems to fracture, break apart and stop functioning.

Coming around to the view that a certain kind of narcissist simply needs Musk to be a genius rather than a fraud, because they want to believe there’s a hereditary Brahmin class of accomplished, beautiful minds—and that they’re a part of that class.

The Gilded Age is Trump's ideal--let's check the stats, shall we? --most Americans disenfranchised --most Americans in extreme poverty --most Americans worked 12 hour workdays, 6-7 days a week --most Americans consumed unsafe food, water, medicine The Gilded Age was great only for the rich folks

trump admin is ending Medicare coverage for telehealth in most cases on April 1. www.medicare.gov/coverage/tel...

Eggs are now so expensive they’re smuggling them like fentanyl.

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

Something that wasn't brought to my attention until after publication is that GlomarResponder also made a lot of posts that appear to praise and defend Adolf Hitler.

If members of Congress—like Rep. Grothman —are this clueless about what the man who is dismantling our government is saying and promising, they don’t deserve to keep their jobs! This woman is in his face, begging him to wake TF up—and he just walks off. Pathetic.

and here I thought the Republicans wanted people to have more babies. They outlaw abortion, abortion pills, talking about abortion, and now working on pregnancy. Hmm.

The technical geniuses at DOGE strike again

FFS New York Times. They’re not *his generals. Unbelievable

This is an article that prefigures very accurately what we will be reading about American (and American based) scientists in about ten months. The collapse of the top scientific research network in the world. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

AZ AG Kris Mayes: This is a coup by Trump against our Constitution, because they are violating not only the separation of powers but also the court orders We have federal judges saying to Donald Trump and Elon Musk, “Stop this now,” and yet we believe they are violating those orders.

A federal judge has extended the order keeping Elon Musk's DOGE out of Treasury Department payment systems, ruling that the Trump admin's process for granting access to the sensitive data was so flawed and haphazard that it was likely illegal.

White House Down #Krasnov

Even Elon Musk's own AI knows what Musk is really doing.

Major events in human history are often driven by incredible assholes, just monstrous douchebags with ego problems that cause them to float through the world committing atrocities and cheering themselves onwards. Nate Silver should both read better books and go to therapy.

I googled. He's real. In certain special cases, I feel a new pope should forgo taking a new papal name and stick with his own, most excellent, one.

This shit is so fucking insufferable. We can walk and chew gum at the same time. And yes actually we should call out Nazi symbolism performed on a national stage, whether or not they think they're being cute about it

Please read my latest reflection. There are lies we tell to comfort ourselves. Like Democrats who say we just have to wait two year and Trump will lose control of the House. Like those in Germany who promoted Hitler while believing they could control him. charlieangus.substack.com/p/the-reichs...

Germans have been subjected to covert Russian propaganda as well as overt American propaganda - jointly in support of the far-right www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/w...

"The tragedy isn't just that we're losing our democracy—it's that we're losing it to people who understand exactly what they're destroying and why. They're not misguided idealists or bumbling authoritarians; they're clear-eyed architects of a new feudalism,...

and they certainly are not in any way legally bound or directed by tweets

Harmeet Dhillon will lead Trump's DOJ Civil Rights Division. Michael Gates will be her lieutenant Both are super partisan election deniers from California who have made names for themselves among MAGA attacking civil rights rather than defending & expanding civil rights Both are unqualified

„Sometimes you have to reverse the the flow of shit and flood the other side“. Resistance lessons to start with.

On Wednesday I was the first to report Leland Dudek was on the verge of losing his job at the Social Security Administration when he was suddenly promoted to acting commissioner by Elon Musk. Thursday I published a story with more details. I’ll let you guess if I got any credit in this Post story:

‘Technofossils’: how humanity’s eternal testament will be plastic bags, cheap clothes and chicken bones

“It’s as if we lost the war to US..” He wants to take resources from a country in war. How are we supposed to live? We have children. It’s as if US seeks to deprive us of our economic potential. It would finish us off, the same as America did with Red Indians” www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

Dear German friends — we’re hearing in Canada how the far-right extremist AfD party is polling well in part because they’re “strong on social media”, Elon Musk’s interference, & their attempts to appear mainstream. Please look closely at the chaos Musk & extremists are creating in the United States.

A Houston TV station used historical footage to compare book banning and textbook revisions in a local school district to Nazi book burnings. Republican backlash swiftly followed, and the station removed the video. www.chron.com/news/houston...
