Officials at the FAA have directed staff to identify tens of millions of dollars to fund a Starlink deal for upgrading air traffic control communications. Staff has been instructed to find the funds while minimizing documentation and avoiding a paper trail.

So can we take a tax holiday now too? As in, not bother to file or pay like the rich guys? I mean, since all these services and departments are being dismantled... Asking for my cat.

I’ve been reading the incomparable Fredrik Backman to help keep me sane and I can’t help but think that 77-something million red-hatted idiots have put us squarely in a moral hazard and have given el0n the damn saw (and a chainsaw at that). 🧵 1/2

True story:

Super fascinating conversation between Fresh Air’s Tonya Mosley and The Atlantic’s Derek Thompson. Guess we need to stop donating so much dopamine to our phones and start spending more time at our third spaces and talking to our neighbors. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

She doesn’t suffer talking yams lightly, either. Governor Mills is another one of my new heros.

Imagine saying this about an agency that has helped millions of people around the world avoid malaria, obtain clean water, and gain access to food & health care. Especially when you’re the world’s richest man & your net worth is something like 20 times this agency’s annual budget. What a foul soul.

Elon Musk now has access to your Social Security number. The world’s richest man has gained access to the confidential personal information of every taxpayer in the United States.

An Elon Musk staffer misused the U.S. Marshals Service by falsely invoking their authority to intimidate. USAID security personnel were threatened with action by the federal Marshals Service.

Most insane part is that you or I have as much right to storm into a government agency and seize computers as Musk does. As in: zero. But it’s all being normalized by #complicitmedia. “doge” is bullshit.
