If Tesla's stock drops far enough, the bank loans Elon took out to buy Twitter lose their collateral and get called back immediately. Which is why Elon is panicking, Trump is panicking, and their shadow backers are all panicking.

Oh, you're right. And Edsel was the first name of Edsel Ford, son of Henry who was a big-time anti-semite. Really ties together.

You know, it just occurred to me we might be reaching the point at which, if you order steak and eggs at the Waffle House, the eggs are the luxury item.

If you think public attention to an issue and outcry doesn't matter, note that the Trump administration hasn't defied a court order (yet). Let's keep it up!

During the next month Schumer and Jeffries are gonna get asked over and over again about their govt funding fight strategy and how they feel about a potential shutdown. Many people on here will feel the urge to closely sift their words for strategic hints. I recommend that you resist that urge

The bulk of Social Security payments are disbursed in three tranches on the second, third and fourth Wednesdays of each month. The second Wednesday in February is in two days. If Elon's minions have broken that system it's really going to hit the fan.

David Axelrod, with all due respect… Please fuck the fuck off and then fuck off forever. You are a useless, irrelevant, gasbag.

How about we also fire the worst 1% of the top 1%. That will weed out the most corrupt and criminal, such as this richest human here who dishonors the species by abusing his good fortune.

Media says: Where are the Dems? I say: WHERE the hell is the media? 📌Thousands of us stood in the cold here in Wisconsin and across the country protesting Musk's attack on our privacy, and it barely got a mention. 📌Dems are fighting, but the media has once again fallen at Trump's fat, little feet.

One thing I've thought about a lot over the past few days is we were told that Musk's effort involved myriad high-profile Silicon Valley names willing to forego salary in order to help revamp government and what we got was child soldiers.

📌NYT: Turmoil at U.S. aid agency threatens supplies to Gaza. 📌“They’re making an already fragile cease-fire more fragile,” said Dave Harden, a former U.S.A.I.D. mission director for Gaza. “Lifesaving aid to Gaza is going to be disrupted.” 📌WHERE are you anti-Harris Palestinian protestors now? 😡

I left Facebook in 2016 when they refused to addressed hundreds of scammers using my pictures on their fake pages. Was told today there are 30 “Hertling” pages on FB, all using my military photo in their avatars saying I’m a widow/divorced serving in Syria. It ain’t Sheryl’s fault.

What's happening today isn't a philosophical debate over whether democracy or autocracy is preferable. It's a smash-and-grab by the super-rich, who are bankrolling a torrent of lies to pave the way for widespread financial exploitation. It's organized crime, not politics.

Not reading the paper that was wall to wall "Biden is old" and "Let's have feats of strength to pick his replacement" was my form of accountability. Substance matters.

There are good reasons to be angry with the gerontocracy that is the House Democrats but a gotcha photo of a member needing a walker after hip surgery doesn’t make that case. Yes, Nancy Pelosi is old. She’s also not in the leadership anymore and she was actually there doing her job, walker and all.

There’ll be a lot of attention about Carter’s much-heralded post-presidency in the days ahead. Remember too that his presidency was better than he gets credit for. History will treat him very kindly.

Here's my message to DNC members: Let’s build year-round infrastructure in every single state. The sooner we start, the sooner we'll be able to win races that currently seem out of reach.
