i cannot believe that this email is what has pushed both the viziers & bureaucrats into open revolt against the Chief Eunuch, but hey i'll take it

From 2014-17 I worked for a company that no longer exists. Over 2016 my boss got weirder, impulsive and wore sunglasses inside. My wife suspected drugs. In 2017 he fired me for questioning some of his decisions. No one got paid after I left because he'd raided payroll for drug money. That was it.

Cool I think we should send the army in to break this cult up.

If y'all think this is bad, wait until you find out about what family owns and finances Desert Tech

This is a wild, WILD situation. The President is at least allowing, licensing these emails though clearly not directing them. Meanwhile parts of the uniformed military are directing civilians within DOD to ignore them. Same at State and according to Dilanian FBI. But DOJ is saying do what the ...

the way the American left and center-left neglect Spanish isn't as bad as it would be for, say, a Canadian party to neglect French, but it is still a rather serious self-inflicted wound

I understand that there is very little that can be done by Congressional Democrats about this right now, but I wish there was more recognition from influential and important people that the existence of Elon Musk is itself an existential threat to American constitutional democracy.

is this a fucking joke

some incredible cope content

the reason that the Democrats held a long-term, unshakeable governing authority is that they enabled the one-party rule of the south through racial terror and rigged elections, including FDR, who opposed anti-lynching bills through his entire career

This is a good idea for a new PAC actually.

Think of all the ways the administrative arm of the world’s most powerful sovereign state is like a medium-sized tech company that sells ads on a website. Both collect taxes, provide the national framework for markets, run spy agencies, have nuclear weapons, run the global reserve currency, etc

Rollins won confirmation as the Secretary of Agriculture 72-28, meaning a lot of Dems voted for her. Now she’s doing this shit.

Honestly it's surreal watching an insane sleep-deprived drug addict taking over the federal government just by trying random shit and having it mostly work out for him (so far)

Elijah Cummings wasn't so great at the Oversight job because he was a venerable institutionalist, he was so great at the Oversight job because he was great at smacking down Republican bullshit

Yep, one reason why I've been saying for a whole minute that it's already baked into the cake that many millions will die from this Trump administration, & some people may have thought I was exaggerating but I was not Lots of other things that'll cause deaths (& other misery) too, but hell man fuck

oh, someone finally got yelled at enough to get off his ass

I’ve assembled a rag tag team of rivals composed of rough around the edges misfits for a vital mission. It’s going horribly, they can’t work together well and professionalism is sorely lacking, what the hell was I thinking

Just gonna remind people that pre-2016 it was expected that each side’s published readout of a diplomatic call was vetted by the other side first

this is very bad and we will be dealing with the consequences for a very long time but this is like the literal opposite of regime consolidation

illegally suspending PEPFAR may actually kill more people than the Holocaust

would letting Ruwa Roman speak have won the election, or even Michigan? no and almost certainly not. but it would have given a lot of people cover to get their friends to vote, and maybe that saves Casey

Never in my most pessimistic moments did I expect the response to modern biotechnology saving countless lives in a pandemic to be a powerful elite captured by a conspiracy theory and dismantling our defenses against the next one out of some misguided notion of revenge

you know, we think about the rise of fascism as a response to WWI but sometimes I wonder if it wasn’t as much a response to the 1918 pandemic

The Biden administration looked at the endless obviously illegal & destructive shit Elon was doing and his open belief that he was above & beyond the reach of the state, and went "so true go off bestie"

klion is absolutely fucking correct

👀 👀 👀 here’s big boy bob attempting to drag one of his constituents out of a public town hall meeting, and threatening to pepper spray her if she did not comply. he stated he wasn’t acting in his official capacity, yet he was wearing a hat that said sheriff and his badge was visible on his belt

The targeted word lists the MAGAs are circulating are very clear indicators of who they’re going after (and it’s everyone who’s not a white, cis, straight, non-disabled Christian man)

DOGE is like if Fyre Festival was a government agency.
