If you've ever posted your wallet address, or anything that might indicate you have a significant amount of cryptocurrency, I recommend going back and deleting it. Even if you're not a public figure, it's not difficult to find someone's home address. These kinds of attacks are becoming more common.

Warren Buffett, the famed investor who runs the sprawling conglomerate Berkshire Hathaway, described tariffs as “an act of war” in an interview with CBS.

November 2024: Trump will save the economy March 2025: We have returned to subsistence agriculture

How much WD40 do you have to drink to believe this shit?

Here’s an idea: If “waste, fraud and abuse” are actually being uncovered, could we see a couple examples that can be investigated and confirmed by an independent 3rd party? Because I believe DOGE is theater.

Most of what we call "tech" is about getting the right information into a database and trying to prevent the wrong person from reading or updating it.

The Office of Personnel Management was asked to pay for 20 full-time positions in Musk’s department for work between January 20 and July 4, 2026, according to the draft agreement obtained by CNN sent from the executive office of the president to OPM leadership for review. cnn.it/4bolaRA

"Just a big mess": Musk's team claims credit for saving $53.7 million for "canceling" a federal contract that in fact was just for $144,000 and was actually completed 20 years ago. @Fahrenthold.bsky.social @sangerkatz.bsky.social @jsvine.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/03/02/u...

Wow if this turns out to be an advanced inside tip from someone, it's going to really set back the years of progress the crypto community have made in carefully establishing a reputation for trust and trans- Nah, I'm just kidding, this just tracks. See you at the next pump and dump everyone!

Key takeaway from DOGE: There’s less government fraud/waste than expected.

Hope to see you there

Elon Musk’s government restructuring team claimed credit for canceling federal contracts that had been completed years earlier, the latest in a string of public errors on its site.

🚨 BREAKING: This is beyond outrageous. Elon Musk, his cranky mother Maye, and one of his young kids were chauffeured in Air Force One and Marine One—straight to the White House, where they’re apparently staying. WTF is going on? It goes without saying, this is not normal. 🙄

The relevant fact about Nazis is that they rather famously did not *start out* committing genocide and starting wars, but it *was* the natural endpoint of their stated goals.

An NPR review of new data added to DOGE's "wall of receipts" finds the group quietly changed previous errors, added new ones and still has little verified savings to show for its work.

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country. This Friday, where will you be? standupforscience2025.org

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.

18F staffers- who were summarily fired en masse overnight- issue statement expressing shock, bewilderment: "18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated."

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

WATCH: “Not even an hour!” KANSAS Rep. Roger Marshall leaves his own town hall after voters on both sides of the aisle express concern about veterans being fired from their federal worker jobs.

HEY EVERYONE REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP WAS IMPEACHED FOR DENYING AID TO UKRAINE BECAUSE HE WANTED ZELENSKY TO LIE AND SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT BIDEN AND ZELENKSY WOULDN’T DO IT? Maybe literally one fucking American newspapers could mention this in their, “think pieces,” about what happened yesterday.

According to Elon Musk: The only problem with Nazis is that they invaded Poland and did a genocide. We aren’t doing currently doing that. As we prepare to invade Greenland and are compiling lists of people to genocide.

Again, Jews were less than 1% of the German population in 1933.

There are parts of the federal government that were so good at their jobs that we never heard of them. We are going to spend the rest of our lives wondering why those departments don’t exist now.

Oh you could say I dabble in Photoshop #teslatakedown @niedermeyer.online

Almost 800,000 people on here are following a totally-not-real account claiming it's a group of rogue park workers and who are now posting cryptic nonsense to make it seem like they're sending messages to the deep state. Also they're selling resistance merch. WTF are we doing man?

A federal judge said on Friday that it seemed “factually inaccurate” for the Trump administration to keep insisting that Elon Musk has no formal position in an operation that has led to mass firings of federal workers and the hobbling of the nation’s foreign aid agency.

The President of the United States is no longer the leader of the free world.

I don’t know if it’s possible to quantify how much global influence and power this administration has willfully squandered in the past four weeks. It is a national security disaster.

Tesla’s shareholders just lost another $38,640,000,000 today — a total $TSLA loss of $600 billion since December. Tesla’s CEO was not in the office. In literally any other public company ever, this would be the point where the CEO gets fired.

Ready Fire Aim is a lousy way to govern.

one of the most effective things that can be done to remove musk from power *and* break the republican party is destabilize and destroy tesla's market position, because wrecking tesla's largest shareholder means wrecking the republican party's primary financier

New from 404 Media: one of the AT&T hackers, in which "nearly all" of AT&T's customers' call and text metadata was stolen, tried to sell stolen data to a foreign intelligence service. The hacker also searched for “U.S. military personnel defecting to Russia.” www.404media.co/at-t-hacker-...

If anyone was still in doubt where the power lies in President Donald Trump’s new administration, Wednesday’s first Cabinet meeting made clear it wasn’t in the actual Cabinet.

Republicans want one thing and it’s fucking disgusting (tax cuts for the rich funded by healthcare cuts for the poor)

Bitch you are the government.

Elon Musk and his 19-year-olds have now disrupted the approval of medical devices that save lives. Every member of Congress bears a responsibility to stop this right now.

For the US to side with Russia and North Korea to oppose a UN resolution condemning the illegal invasion of Ukraine defies all common sense and adds insult to the countless injuries suffered by the brave Ukrainian people. edition.cnn.com/2025/02/24/p...

This is insane. If you wonder why some of us think the rule of law is about to fall, it's this. The U.S. Attorney for DC is not "President Trump's lawyer" and its job is not to "protect his leadership" nor prosecute people who "refuse to put America first".

I love how tech keeps going back to humanoid robots even though literally any other design would be safer, more useful, and more stable for personal use. "no it has to be a SERVANT," screams the reptile hindbrain

Oh for fucks sale, the purpose of DOGE isn’t to find fraud. It’s to set up a digital commissar’s office in every federal agency that will rat on employees that don’t tow TRUMP’s every whim. THE FRAUD LIE IS WHAT GOT THEM IN THE DOOR.
