Also note the context of some bad polling numbers for Musk, a few GOP in Congress raising a few questions, and another story or two of "WH insiders and Cabinet Secs worried and unhappy about Musk". Trump is really doubling down on Elon, not throwing him overboard.

And where are the congressional Republicans

The Musk emails asking federal employees to explain their tasks are have already been sent. One described it to me as "a trap." donmoynihan.substack.com/p/military-p...

Good response template here.

This idiot continues to run the exact stupid playbook he ran on Twitter on the American government. Musk’s involvement in government is polling terribly and it’s getting worse. The Boer is vulnerable to American rage.

I think it’s a mistake to think of the pro-natalist polygamy of Elon Musk as a departure from the “traditional” sexual conservatism. The tradition, really, is not primarily about male monogamy so much as male domination; the collection of multiple women affirms this, rather than subverting it.

In modern history, what is the least popular that party leaders have ever been to their OWN voters? Second place was the GOP in 2009, where their net approval with Republican voters was only +6. Currently Dems are -8, shattering all previous records.

This Pope has done so much to connect the linked issues of climate change, environmental destruction, poverty, inequity, and the importance of tolerance, humility, and grace. My thoughts and thanks are with him 🙏

My favourite part of the new Captain America movie is when he tries to extort Wakanda for $500b in Vibranium rights before "ironically" teaming up with Hydra to own the libs.

the writing this season is getting… heavy handed

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

It never stops being sickly funny and fascinating how the party of "family values" lives with a level of degeneracy that my pervert ass could never come up with. www.independent.co.uk/life-style/k...

To the lady who just messaged me today that I will lose followers if I keep posting about politics:

Look at what they target. Support it. Look at what they support. Target it.

Just gonna note they’re doing exactly what I said they’d do. substack.com/home/post/p-...

"We have nothing against Jews, we just hate Zionists*" (*vaguely defined) Now has its inverse version "We have nothing against Jews, we just hate anti-Zionists*" (*anti-MAGA Jews) This version is not put out by noisy yet powerless activists, but rather by the US government.

“Elon Musk’s cost-cutting team is eliminating jobs at the vehicle safety agency that oversees Tesla and has launched investigations into deadly crashes involving his company’s cars.”

Running thread of people trying to normalize the sieg heil. It's not an "Elon gesture", it's not autism, it's not your heart going out, it's not parody or trolling. It's fucking despicable. Don't ever let this shit become normal. Fuck any excuse given, there is none. Zero tolerance. 1. Elon Musk

Current status: we're smuggling eggs in from Mexico now. So let's talk about WHY Mexico's egg industry has been stable- while US egg prices are through the roof! 1. Mexico puts people in jail for price-fixing. 2. Mexico lets farmers vaccinate their chickens against bird flu.

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

With all the bullshit in the nazi Trump administration, I decided to see what at least the Redditors of the US Military think of all this bullshit. And they hate it. Trump supporters are downvoted/openly mocked but I think people need to see this bottom comment and know there are a lot like them
