Your weather app gets its info because of NOAA. Your mail arrives at your home because of USPS. Your plane navigates the skies because of the FAA. Your food is safer -- and we get alerts when it isn't -- because of USDA. You hear about earthquakes *worldwide* because of USGS.

This hits hard.

Most of us know Musk is despicable. Before I saw this list I had already heard about most on this list. When people show you who they are, believe them. There’s not any exceptions.

Lmao what? The gop is riddled with nazis, qanon believers, and racial segregationists I mean, yeah, I wish they would be better, but they already picked their side. How do people not see this? What are they going to do?

Nazi shit happens at CPAC every single year now. It's undeniable what that hive is. Anyone denying this shit still has their head so far up their own ass that they should never be taken seriously for any reason on any topic ever again because they're delusional.

Brooke, as usual, brings the reciepts. CPAC has been pulling Nazi shit since 2021.

The right response: "Show me the enabling statute. Barring that, any attempts to remove my work materials or credentials will be treated as theft from the Federal government." Then ask for armed citizens to provide security.

“Intimations of death’s certainty are woven into the narrative, in recurring but varied ways that get the audience used to the idea that life on earth is brief and precious. Frith the sun gives life and the Black Rabbit takes it away.” www.rogerebert.com/features/30-...

coming this holiday season

Well let's see if he fires everyone who's on maternity leave or vacation, I guess.

Why isn't the Democratic party running with a supercut of this called They're Nazis?

Where do black guys in Chicago get those insanely kickass embroidered jackets. I want one. My wife has too many tattoos and I'm scared of needles need a way to keep up

Democratic politicians’ inability to understand the importance of framing after 30 years of getting smoked on framing is frustrating as hell to watch.

Not a charge anyone should deploy lightly, but what the ADL is doing right now is kapo shit

Watching American data governance collapse is breaking my brain. My job is about working with Indigenous Peoples to assert their data sovereignty and all I can think these days is: uh, don't do what the Americans are doing

I wouldn’t think “moved to root out diversity initiatives” is a useful phrase for journalism at all, but using it as a euphemism for a purge of high ranking black officers is downright Orwellian.

The Horrors aside, it is revealing that we've had two decades of press about how this man's management style can't be comprehended by outsiders, that it breaks every rule of normal corporate practice, and now he's forced to do it in public and it's the hackiest cliche of clueless middle manager

The resignation of a federal employee must be voluntary. I highly doubt failure to respond to this email---sent on a Saturday---would be understood by any court to be a voluntary resignation.

In every single interview I’ve done with international media since Trump took power I’ve been asked: Why are there no mass protests? There are many reasons, of course, but the utter refusal of the self-proclaimed “fourth estate” to communicate clearly what is happening has to be high on the list.

what the moment calls for is fighters instead of gormless boobs who should have retired 30 years ago. policy differences can be hashed out later, everyone can agree that Musk and Trump must be stopped and democracy restored

🎶The GOP is a nazi party🎶 Sing it with me, everyone!

petition to rename it the Mangione spiral 😵‍💫

"Why do you keep calling them Nazis?"

Senate Democrats propose bipartisan compromise of only letting Elon be president some of the time

Elon musk is the greatest unifying political issue this country has seen since 9/11, fumbling this bag would be almost as criminal as his agency

it is really notable the extent to which state Dems have been significantly better than federal Dems at telling Trump to go fuck himself

Every so often I remember that Oprah brought us Dr Phil, Dr Oz and The Secret but the only person she brought back to destroy on her show was the guy who pretended to be a worse drug addict than he actually was in a book

Today's extract from Serving the Reich. What makes it worse is that I don't even need to add any explanatory comment, do I?

NEW: Elon Musk’s team has descended on an already understaffed Social Security Administration, which now faces further workforce cuts and closures of vital local offices. The consequences could be significant for millions of the most vulnerable Americans.

new memo out today from leading law professors. upshot: DEI remains lawful & universities should protect their DEI policies, knowing law & moral principle is on their side. LINK: app.box.com/s/2me4mszr6p...

No matter how preposterous, the Times headlines nearly every Trump story as if it were written by the White House comms team.

Climate change is the biggest crisis humanity faces in the 21st century and just because they are trying to eliminate all mentions of the word “climate“ doesn’t actually solve anything.

The caller's a Democrat. Exact same thing that happened a few weeks ago: a mob of liberals sneering at a poor person suffering under Trump simply because he's poor.

JUST IN: A judge has enjoined President Trump's effort to block federal funds from going toward grant recipients who engage in DEI practices. The judge says the orgs are likely to succeed on claims that this is viewpoint discrimination, among other issues storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

One of our Kenwood newcomer students is missing. Please spread the word to help find Astrid. She speaks Spanish and understands a little English. www.chicagopolice.org/news/cpd-mis...

“Shortly after Friday’s exchange, the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) announced that it launched a Title IX violation investigation into Maine’s Department of Education and one of its school districts.”

this kind of shit made sense back when musk was still widely admired and seen as non-political but the most recent polling shows he's hilariously unpopular, like 10-15 points lower than Trump's own low approval ratings. People hate this motherfucker! You don't need to clear your throat first

What the fuck is wrong with Democrats

One more time, because I’m not afraid of being fired from the VA - and I will NOT let this go quietly.

Personally *Leftists* on social media are definitely why I'm officially becoming a fascist. That will show them!!!!

This is absolutely correct. Convo I had last week that is part of why I resigned: Much more senior leader: no, we still can't post FRNs. Me: Doesn't that mean we can't proceed? MMSL: correct Me: doesn't that mean we're not in compliance with the TROs? MMSL: ...um...yea, in a way...

I’m beginning to sound like a broken record, but the Federal Register block is intentionally being used to stop NIH from awarding grants. They might not call it a freeze, but things are effectively frozen. We need legal action ASAP.

Politico reported yesterday on RFK’s intentions to pacify & domesticate the ACIP. www.politico.com/news/2025/02... I have just dissociated hardcore into everything feeling surreal. I seem to have exceeded my ability to accept THE FUCKING EXTENT OF HOW FUCKED WE FUCKING ARE.

Hunter Schafer announced in an 8+ min video that her new passport misgenders her, presumably because of Trump's announcement that the US govt only recognize gender as assigned at birth. she (rightly) connects it to fascist history, like Nazis burning the Institute of Sexology in 1933 @teenvogue.com
