Marine One costs about $20,000/hour to operate and Air Force One costs around $200,000/hour. How many people did DOGE fire so that the world’s richest man could have a little joyride with his human shield child?

Trump administration may exclude government spending from GDP, obscuring effect of Doge cuts

Tim Snyder brilliantly analyzes what this bit of Trump’s lunacy yesterday revealed: open.substack.com/pub/snyder/p...

Man könnte es als Sieg der Vernunft feiern, dass Friedrich Merz die Zielvorgaben seines Wahlkampfes eine nach der anderen wieder einkassiert. Aber es ist kein Sieg der Vernunft; es ist ein Zurückrudern angesichts von Sachzwängen, die er im Wahlkampf noch hartnäckig geleugnet hat. 1/5

Chris Murphy: "It is absolutely shameful what's happening right now. The White House has become an arm of the Kremlin."

Tomorrow's News Today: DOGE has determined individual tax refunds to be fraudulent & a waste of money. It's inefficient to send refund checks to millions of people's homes when the money can be sent directly to Elon Musk!

Donald. Trump. Is. A. Russian. Asset.

Diaper Donnie is furious. NATO is ready to dump the US if Trump doesn’t work out a peace agreement for Ukraine. They will replace us with Ukraine. I am so ashamed of those who voted for Trump substack.com/@vilniusscho...

Mutmaßlicher Anschlag in Mannheim Statt abzuwarten, was wirklich passiert ist, werden von Vertretern der rechten Szene Bilder vermeintlich abgetrennter Gliedmaßen unzensiert gepostet & geteilt. Allem voran Sellner ... Solche Leute gehen im wahrsten Sinne über Leichen um ihren Hass zu verbreiten!

Robert Hubbell - “Our most important task is to not quit. If all we do is endure and keep hope alive, that will be enough. That is what Winston Churchill did during the darkest hours of WWII. If we can do the same, we will see victory in 2026 and 2028.” open.substack.com/pub/roberthu...

I would say, "Careful Elon. You can't trust Putin!" But that applies to both of them.

One thing that needs to get repeated until it sinks in is that “AI” does not simply function as a tool that people in power are using; it’s even more powerful as a permission structure for the destructive & extractive things they wanted to do in the first place.

I thought I was having a nervous breakdown but I was just hungry.

The Trump administration is failing miserably in myriad ways, including its weak, irresponsible response to the measles emergency that originated in Texas. Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has failed to truly promote one of the government’s most important…

Missouri has been running the pilot for Project 2025 for a couple of decades. With a GOP Supermajority, over 30% of our schools are on a four-day week. We fund vouchers for private religious schools. Our starting teachers are 50th in the nation for pay and they pay for their own supplies.

@sierraheart.bsky.social Good day to you, Sierra! 🙂❤️ Getting in those morning stretches, my wonderful friend! 🌞😀😊🤗

Liebe Yankees … die Dame, die von Liberty Island ankommende Einwanderer, die ihr wieder rausschmeissen wollt, begrüßt … die is Französin. Kulturell habt ihr weder einen Beethoven, noch einen Mozart, keinen Goethe, keinen Voltaire, Michelangelo oder Shakespeare. Alles kulturelle Aneignung.

A hero for our time.

This is a small group of centrist moderates you've never heard of lead by Matt Bennett - an old, pro-capitalist white guy that used dirty tricks to tank the Dukakis campaign in 1988. His organization is called "Third Way," and he can fuck all the way off. We will NOT abandon our values.

RFK wrote an op-ed for Fox News that ostensibly promotes MMR vaccination to address measles outbreaks. But there are still crumbs for the anti-vax & MAGA audience. I wonder how his messaging will evolve and if these hints will get less subtle in future outbreaks. www.foxnews.com/opinion/robe...

Groups tied to Elon Musk have already spent more than $4.2 million on the Wisconsin Supreme Court race—a clear sign that his plans for oligarchy extend well beyond Washington.

This is a big deal!!!

Die EU zahlt ein Vermögen für kaputte Software, kritisiert Michiel Leenaars von der niederländischen NLnet Foundation im Interview. Mit seinem Team unterstützt er quelloffene, kostenlose Lösungen, und zwar mit Geldern der EU. Damit könnte aber bald Schluss sein. netzpolitik.org/2025/open-so...

More and more of us are going to need to come together and rise up. If we don’t , millions are going to be on the streets homeless and hungry. It’s looking like there’s going to be cuts to Medicaid in which will hurt Medicare & private insurance. Cuts to Snap and cutting jobs from Social Security.

JRR Tolkien had a lot of good ideas and important things to say, but he may have been the only sincere “anarcho-monarchist” to ever exist, and that means whatever his other values, he did very much believe in and desire kings

Antisemitism has become an unchecked wildfire cushioned by a deluge of deliberate misinformation. Thank you Adrien Brody, for calling out antisemitism and racism in your speech at the Oscars. And for calling out the SILENCE that allows the inferno of hate to spread far and wide.

Ein Wehrdienstleistender aus dem Burgenland und ein zweijähriger Bub in Italien sind an Meningitis gestorben. Der Österreicher war nicht geimpft, während der Junge trotz Impfung an einer bakteriellen Meningitis verstarb.
