Maddow: All of this absolutely historically unprecedented. No president has ever come out of the gate with numbers like this ever before. And it is across the board

In Trump world, cruelty against children is the norm

NEW --There's this guy in the executive branch who in less than a month has already spent NEARLY 11 MILLION DOLLARS of taxpayer money playing golf. Yet the whole thing has flown under the radar of the crack waste/fraud/abuse squad over at DOGE somehow. www.huffpost.com/entry/donald...

So if Musk doesn’t run DOGE, and DOGE isn’t a real government agency, then no one has to listen to Musk or do what the DOGE bros tell them to do, right?

Why does Elon Musk need my sensitive data? How will that reduce fraud? (Or enrich his next endeavour - centralized banking?) Why did he apply for a banking feature on X?

If you’re not confirmed by the Senate then you have no business meddling in the lives of MILLIONS of Americans We are suing DOGE for violating the constitution & illegally seizing power I’ll discuss tonight @ 8PM ET on @insidewithpsaki.msnbc.com 👇 statedemocracydefenders.org/fund/new-law...

The biggest cage match ever will be between Musk and Trump. Elon will try to implement AI in a manner that automates much of what Trump is now trying to control. Trump will have no understanding of what is going on and will have to turn to the AI oligarchs to support him in this battle.

Some federal employees who accepted Trump’s buyout offer are now being notified that their buyout has been denied, and they are being terminated instead.

In case you were wondering, Donald Trump flew back to Mar-a-Lago yesterday so he could funnel more taxpayer money into his own pockets.

I think POTUS is so compromised that he can't possibly do what is in the American Public's best interest. Musk bought him, Putin owns him - he's a sort of bully in the R party only. We are screwed.

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

The source code for the new Department for Government Efficiency’s “official US government website” points to X as its primary source of authority while sharing links to the site sends users to x.com.

NEW from @makenakelly.bsky.social: Chief Information Officers of at least three federal agencies have been replaced by Silicon Valley execs, including from Palantir and SpaceX. This could make it easier for DOGE engineers to access sensitive government systems: www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Why did Trump have himself put in charge of the Kennedy Center? Because he knows that the educated and cultured people who patronize it despise him. So he seeks revenge. And he knows that his being in charge of the center will destroy it.

Head of DOGE Elon Musk has received a new $38,858,978 government contract for his company SpaceX. Musk is self-determining his own conflicts of interest.

My favorite so far

The DOGE website that Elon says is proof of how transparent they are basically doesn't exist www.doge.gov

The White House fired USAID’s inspector general a day after he warned the Trump administration about funding and oversight - and cuts that made it impossible to monitor **$8.2 billion** in unspent humanitarian funds. apnews.com/article/usai...

Hello he lied will work in all instances.

Hi Mark, sorry for the cryptic LI screenshot, I'm not verified on LinkedIn, so doubtful you will see my response to your important comment on a post earlier today. If this is an actual true post - this highlights a huge problem in the health insurance industry. Imagine ... being in this situation?

@mcuban.bsky.social

I guess someone at WSJ like @dustinvolz.bsky.social should have done a BREAKING news headline that Marko Elez was playing with Treasury's source code in a sand box. That might get the attention of the people who run finance.

For those not familiar with how financial markets work, US Treasuries are the ultimate safe asset, used as collateral for everything. Even a hint that some Treasuries might not be honored could bring everything to a screeching halt 1/

"Vance had a chance to defend his OWN family, and he opted to defend the Indian-hating bigot instead. Where are the balls on these Republican men? ... Elon wants his DOGE kid who hates Indians back and Vance does his bidding... Do they castrate these guys at the door of the RNC?"

SpaceX, which holds billions of dollars in government contracts, was penalized by the FAA for ignoring regulations. In response, Musk pushed for the resignation of the agency’s chairman.

Note that Elon may have pushed to reinstate Marko Elez, the self-described eugencist, at Treasury bc under Judge Kollar-Kotelly's order, he's the only coder who can access the payment system (Tom Krause is not a coder). But w/Judge Engelmeyer's order, neither can access it.

MAGA: Make Apartheid Great Again.

“According to one Trump ally, Musk is not fully briefing White House chief of staff Susie Wiles about his plans and the White House is effectively in the dark.” www.vanityfair.com/news/story/i...

"Calls are pouring in from constituents outraged about Mr. Trump’s unilateral moves and how he has allowed Mr. Musk to gain access to and begin dismantling critical parts of the federal bureaucracy, and demanding that members of Congress take a stand against them." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/07/u...

Again, something that would trigger red flags in a standard background investigation.

Notable that Elons crew of incels and edgelords are full fledged men for the purposes of being given the keys to car to run the govt. But for the purposes of being accountable for their actions they’re just kids from good families with youthful indiscretions.

Trump on DOGE obtaining Americans' personal information, including social security numbers and bank numbers: "They get it very easily. We don't have very good security in our country."

Only two weeks on the job, and Elon Musk is already the worst president America has ever had.

This can’t be real.

Is Elon really "Genius, Brilliant and Wicked Smart" (yes, I'm from Boston)? As far as successful Billionaires is he truly this? Or is this his marketing/MAGA screed at work

DOJ lawyer is being extremely careful to avoid committing to anything in the FBI agents’ hearing, qualifying any commitment about what the gov’t has & intends to do with statements like this. It’s unprecedented. DOJ lawyers go to court ready to commit to the gov’t’s position.

If Elon Musk did in the private sector what he's doing in the public sector, he would face a multi-BILLION dollar class action lawsuit for illegal breaches of data privacy and transparency.

Quick reminder: DOGE isnt real. Its a figment of President Musks imagination and has no power, and isn’t an agency
