🧙‍♂️These three things, monks, are conducted in secret, not openly. What three? Affairs with women, the mantras of the brahmins, and wrong view.

I've often insisted that we need to keep our eyes on Trump's actions more than his words (because so many of the words are bluster & lies). Now we have a genuinely dangerous action: a purge at the Pentagon, notably a purge of the top figures who can decide if Trump's commands are unconstitutional.

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

100% and I need everyone to understand right now that there is only one solution: people need to start getting their asses kicked in public again

WATCH: “You just said something that’s not true — that tens of millions of dead people are on that list… but the same report you cited said almost none of them have received Social security.” Trump’s Press Sec hides behind saying they “suspect” it, then runs away 🤔

I predict sort of pressure campaign will have a dual effect: harassing congress members to put up a fight and to nullify the threat of Elon Musk primarying them.

DEI for white people

For those unfamiliar, General Charles Brown, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, is Black. Admiral Lisa Franchetti, the Chief of Naval Operations, is a woman.

Trump take insulin

Among those Trump and Musk fired at the FAA: - Lawyers who help keep drunk or reckless pilots out of the skies - Air traffic control support staff - Employees who track potential new flying hazards like cranes - Staffers who medically clear pilots to fly www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Hey so @moderation.bsky.app you going to do anything about these obviously bad faith lists being used to slander people? Hey @aaron.bsky.team you should respond to emails like you used to this is unacceptable

"The world's richest person, who was clad in sunglasses, a baseball cap and a large necklace, paraded it up and down the stage before laying it to one side and declaring he was "living the meme." JFC these people are weird.

It's blatantly obvious that the NYT finds Republicans to interview by calling up their Republican Party contacts and asking for someone "normal" to get quotes from, and their failure to disclose that they always interview party apparatchiks is a conscious choice

Good thing Elon Musk has nothing to do with DOGE, otherwise this might look a bit shady www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Get arrested preventing DOGE goons from entering public buildings, get arrested going into public buildings to find out what DOGE goons are doing, get arrested on the floor during confirmation votes to protest the rubber stamping of unqualified candidates

what are we doing here folks?

Elon Musk bought his way into the White House. Now he's trying to buy a pivotal state-level election—and the consequences could be dire.

oh so they're secretly doing something that looks exactly like doing nothing, sure sure . many such cases
