@newsjennifer.bsky.social on the gripping and impactful DOGE reporting by local news outlets: "It would be both ironic and so very American if the rich and powerful oligarchs were finally stopped by the underfunded newsrooms and working-class reporters." jenniferschulze.substack.com/p/local-news...

It is almost impossible to explain the sheer insanity of Elon Musk apparently having the capability to email the entire federal government evidently without getting approval from anyone—and, apparently, against the wishes of most Cabinet departments.

The best way to fight back against Musk: Don’t buy a Tesla. (And if you own one, sell it.) The company was already in a precarious position before Musk launched his assault on democracy. A Tesla boycott would be devastating – and richly deserved. Me, in Slate 🧵

And it’ll stay that way unfortunately. Because elections have consequences.

This is what it looks like when you put people over politics. I have more faith in the leadership of Zelenskyy than I do in any of the people currently in the line of succession for the American presidency.

The way forward is to continue to boycott MSNBC. They’ve abdicated their responsibility as the fourth estate in favor of profits. Invest in independent journalism. Subscribe to newsletters. Listen to indie podcasts. But boycott corporate media. They’re part of the problem in this country.

Sure looks like Musk’s endorsement and unpopularity among Europeans actually served as a detriment to the campaign. Sounds like someone else America knows.

“I dunno. It’s just like my opinion, man but let’s go party at Fort Knox.” Sure. this is the responsible person in charge of your government who thinks he ought to go sink his teeth into some taxpayer gold just because he can.

Bannon: "The number one enemy to the people of Israel are American Jews who... do not support MAGA." First Bannon does Hitler salute at CPAC. Now he's making threats against American Jews who do not toe the party line. Wake up, America.

I think the message of these consumer boycotts can be simple. I won’t lift my spending freeze until Trump and Republicans lift the federal funding freeze and stop the DOGE coup. You want to put federal workers in trauma? As consumers we’re committed to putting the economy in trauma. Your move

ICONIC: Yosemite National Park workers just hung an upside-down American flag—THOUSANDS of feet up on El Capitan. That’s not decoration. That’s a distress signal. They’re telling us the country is in danger. Are you paying attention? www.sfchronicle.com/outdoors/art...

This is a classic sign of a patriarchal society Men are raised to believe blame lies outside of their superior selves so they don’t engage in accountability & introspection The permeation of political blame & the need for societal scapegoats reflects how deeply entrenched we are in the patriarchy

A lot of Americans don't actually care much about policy, because they don't trust government to solve their problems. Instead, they just want someone to blame when they're struggling. And the GOP gives them scapegoats in spades.

Elon, I hate to break it to you but you aren’t my boss. I answer to the people of Minnesota. But since you bring it up, I spent last week fighting to stop tax breaks for billionaires like you, paid for by defunding health care for moms and babies

This morning we’re talking about the consumer blackout planned for February 28th. Are tactics like these effective? What is the purpose of an economic blackout and other kinds of boycotts? Here’s why flexing the muscle of consumer power can be as effective as mass protests. (THREAD)

Your silence about the persecution of some people won’t keep you safe. It will power the wheel of destruction, grinding forward and crushing us all beneath the weight of its cruelty. Standing on the right side of history is neither comfortable or convenient. But it is the only thing worth doing.

Hilarious. After the DOGErs set up the new government-wide all employee email system in late January OPM, where it is housed, sent out an advisory which states explicitly that no employee ever has to respond to any of the emails. See 4.2 and 4.3. www.opm.gov/media/kfpozk...

At some point that guy is actually going to crash and burn. It’s a race to who self destructs first. Democracy or the dude who pretends to run an agency called DOGE while high on ketamine.

All I’ll say about this is with agencies no longer looking out for your safety, you should invest in auto companies that have to adhere to strict safety standards. Preferably in other countries that still care about their citizens.

Imagine getting impeached twice, stealing an election and getting away with it, getting “shot”, and then when that doesn’t work, getting the biggest rocket geek on the planet to buy the presidency for you and people still don’t respect you

There are 3 special elections coming up and those 3 seats are the keys to stopping the Congressional Republicans doing Trump & Musk’s evil bidding. We need just 1 seat to block them, 2 seats to stop them, and with all 3 we can FLIP THE HOUSE. Join us!! Monday 2/24 @7:30 EST. 👇👇 mobilize.us/s/Y9NrBb
