Donald Trump and Elon Musk have fired “multiple FAA lawyers whose job was to help prevent pilots with drug and alcohol problems from getting in the cockpit.” Musk and Trump want you to die in an airplane crash. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

listen to this. Elon can barely form a sentence right now.

This man is zooted into the next dimension

This is like opposing a joint resolution declaring that the Sun sets in the West America doesn’t just look like an idiot here, we look like goddamn Flat Earthers

The mothers met in a Whatsapp group. They have vowed to fight until their sons, who they say have not committed crimes and do not have ties to gangs, are released.

Heather Cox Richardson is not part of this effort. If you know who typed this up, please let them know. Thank you.

This is absurd. We built this database to stop officers who commit misconduct at one police agency from being rehired at another. It's about transparency and safety -- it helps the hiring agencies and the public. With due process protections. Trump shut it down

Politico’s owner liked Vance cozying up to the Nazi-tainted AfD. Good to know.

Thank you. 👏 More of this, please!

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

"At best, Musk treats Trump like an equal. At worst, he acts as though Trump is a doddering old man who must, for the moment, be humored. And he wears the black hat which proclaims, I am not a foot soldier in the red-hat army. I am the commander of my own forces." www.thebulwark.com/p/what-elon-...

HB has fully jumped the shark.

fact check: since congestion pricing started, subway crime is down 36%.

I can’t stop thinking about these two headlines

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

Big, growing crowd just west of the U.S. Capitol protesting Trump, Musk and DOGE on President’s Day. “Hey Congress, grow a spine,” they shout, gathering for a rally around the reflecting pool.

Union Square rally.

All over today. This is NYC.

How was this contract awarded??!

Not even six hours apart.

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out. They gut the FAA. Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted. Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

This has been/is the plan for public education as well.

And Trump wanted to spend $400 million in cyber trucks for the military.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Big crowd at the SF Tesla dealership protesting our unelected overlord. A tiny sign hangs from an upstairs window

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

I’m having great difficulty right now seeing how our political system doesn’t devolve into violence.

This is probably the most accurate take.

I still cannot believe this is real. It’s psychotic. There are many, many (SO MANY) more consequential heinous things they’ve done, but somehow the crassness of this seems like a new low. The White House shitposting like an especially mean and stupid 14-year-old.

One year apart.

jamelle is correct

This says it all

Of course the Democrats will be going to Houston to find and interview voters who were laid off , to ask them what their expectations of the new administration were and how they feel they are doing at the moment. And posting here and everywhere. Right ?

Pete Hegseth's DOD has decided to recruit at an NRA event rather than a Black Engineering event. www.military.com/daily-news/2...

Washington, D.C. yesterday. "Shut down the Senate, Shut down the Senate." Chanted for hours. More massive #USprotests, ongoing. Sources here report, "Millions of people are getting ready as we speak to take this country back and save the USA. Their days are numbered. Stay tuned." #3E

My top Super Bowl memory is when Musk tweeted “Go Eagles” in 2023 from the game and then deleted it after a similar tweet from Biden got more engagement. Then he flew to Twitter HQ and demanded his workers find out why his posts were doing poorly, starting a multi-day fact finding mission.

If the Democrats really want to reach the NFL audience, just cut an ad about how St Jude lost funding. that's literally all you need. It will do all the messaging for you to that crowd

Part of the reason we are rather screwed with all this is that simple lies spread better than complex truths.

I realize what a long shot this is, but our kid threw their beloved teddy bear out of the shopping cart at the Target at Sunset and Western in Hollywood. Teddy is much missed if you happen to hear of a missing bear!

Costco, which has come out saying it supports DEI, will make no changes to its existing programs, AND pays workers a minimum of $30/hour, is up 15% YTD. Target, which announced it is ending all DEI programs and has a minimum wage of $15-$24/hour, is down over 4%. Keep voting with your wallet.

An important historical note — that USAID helped end Apartheid — sheds new light on Elon’s relentless and soulless attack on USAID. During Apartheid, Black South Africans were robbed of human rights and political power. 1/2 www.thealtmedia.com/p/musks-sout...
