Can you say “trillions of dollars being spent to settle said suits?” A massive explosion in the deficit, a triggering act for a recession and utter chaos. Such geniuses.

$200 million taxpayer dollars spent on “tell me I’m pretty” ads to stroke his own ego, while he fires people to “save money.” Sociopathic.

As we all know, massive tax increases (between the tariffs amounting to SuperVATs and income tax hikes for everyone not making $340K/year) are wildly popular. Combine that with slashing the federal workforce, dropping tax revenue and stalling the economy, I’m sure everyone will be delighted. /s

I don’t condone this, but this is going to continue to happen — and likely will escalate as more people get angry at Elon and Trump. A tide of anger is rising and I don’t think it will end well for any of us.

Republicans don’t really believe in God. If they actually did, they wouldn’t be making laws to control everyone. They’d respect that God gave everyone free will and trust that each person would be judged on their own choices and repentance. Evil republicans only use religion for control and power.

Looks like ALL the men who are on board with the Heritage Foundation Project 2025 are men who have deep set hatred for all females. This is a vicious attack on ALL women by men who need some serious therapy.

Trump is a racist bastard. Firing Brown and the female CNO was literally because neither was a white guy who would do his illegal bidding.

Maybe the military needs to be more proactive in stopping this. Once one group has committed a coup (Trump/Musk) is it morally wrong for the military to res-one in kind?

The whole mess with USPS is why I personally drop off my ballots at Voter Services. This seems super shady and unconstitutional.

If you don’t think Trump is taking over the US Mail to do away with mail-in voting, you haven’t been paying attention.

When Trump’s tariff plans destroy the economy it’ll be important to remember that 99% of economists told him it would happen

As an experiment, I asked chatGPT to summarise a really great paper I'd just read. It completely missed the main points of the paper. It took some keywords and turned them into reasonable sentences, but they did not relate to the paper, and they didn't really mean anything.

This would be completely illegal. But you wouldn’t know that from reading this post, the headline, or the lede. Unbelievably bad.

Genuinely couldn't believe this figure until I saw the Financial Times confirm it using Meta's own financial reporting data For THIS $100 billion is genuinely the kind of money you could "do the impossible" with. Crack nuclear fusion. HIV vaccine. Universal flu vaccine And they spent it on this

$3.4 TRILLION. That's the amount Elon Musk could owe in federal fines as a private citizen leaking 340 million social security numbers. Per Section 1942 of the Social Security Act, the penalty for each leak is $10k. He could also face jail time of up to a year. #lockhimup

Hey all my fellow 60+ folks who had many decades of social security contributions deducted from our paychecks but who haven’t hit the retirement age yet… Aren’t you feeling great now that these 19-25 year old racist misogynists have control of YOUR life’s toil?

Impressive for thin-skinned, low-IQ Elon Musk to get a sitting US Attorney to threaten a sitting member of Congress. Impressively stupid. Looking forward to the day Martin is disbarred for ongoing ethics violations.

People are fleeing Florida and Texas. As of Jan. 2025, those states collectively accounted for over 30% of ALL homes for sale in the US. Florida had 157,221 active listings—the highest in the country—followed by Texas with 102,552. Repressive state governments and rising insurance are to blame.

Mark Zuckerberg is one of the worst people on Earth. He lied about defending DEI, scapes your data without permission and basically hates all of us who post on his platforms. Also, half the advertisers are scammers looking to steal your money. Quit while you still can - BlueSky is a better option.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

I am ready to file a class-action suit for defamation — about $20B — against RFK jr. for claiming my kids need reparenting. It is slander against all of us parents who dealt with kids with a chemical imbalance.

People literally died from Covid while claiming it doesn’t exist. There is never going to be a wake up call for some people. A lot of people. It’s not about convincing them if they can’t be convinced. IMO it’s about overwhelming them entirely with opposition.
