This is a good reminder that anytime you try to find some kind of 4D chess reason for what Musk does, the reality is much likelier that he is a complete idiot who has no idea how the world works, yet he is powerful and rich and wields near complete loyalty from others so he gets what he wants.

The DOGE firings have nothing to do with “efficiency” or “cutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. 🧵⬇️

The waste is coming from the White House. 👇

I understand why these stories exist but it’s important to be clear that he’s not “saving” 16 billion, he’s choosing, personally, without oversight, to wipe out 16 billion dollars of government services to veterans and the disabled and food safety etc etc

In the words of the great philosopher Jay-Z: I don’t argue with fools. People from a distance can’t tell who’s who.

Literally every time I watch Trump talk about Musk I think “what a cuck” lol There is no amount of money you could pay me to embarrass myself this much: instagram.com/p/DGQb0UbvtQs/

I’m seeing MAGA folks start to talk about feeling duped. I understand we’re supposed to welcome them back to society. F THAT. They voted for Dumbest Hitler. I hope they feel the weight of every bad thing their votes caused, every COVID death, every child suicide, every trans murder.

We wanted them to have healthcare and a high paying job and a planet to live on and freedom. They want us to suffer. The parties are not the same.

Math is hard

They don't want us gone, they want us back under their thumb and at their service. They want us back cleaning houses, keeping kids, etc

trump, by the numbers: 3 days since flood 2 days of golfing 11 laps in Daytona $5 million taxpayer dollars 14 dead in Kentucky 77 Truth Social posts ZERO posts about the Kentucky victims. NOT. ONE.

I have a belly full of Asian street food and a snow day tomorrow. It does not suck to be me!

As @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social said: Mike Johnson leads an NPC — Non Player Congress

I absolutely believe this. Rape is a central ethos of the MAGA movement. The Trump administration is currently pressuring Romania to release Andrew Tate, after all. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...
