So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

Just when you think Donald Trump cannot sink lower or be more shameful, today he's blaming Ukraine for the war and calling Zelinsky a dictator, when he knows perfectly well that Putin's constant re-elections are put-up jobs.

Here’s how many billions Elon Musk’s companies are making from U.S. taxpayers

Elon Musk is cratering in polls: WaPo: Only 34% approve of Musk's role, 63% worry about his data access CNN: 54% say it's bad Musk was given a big role Majorities disapprove of Trump in CNN, WaPo, Gallup. On the pod, @juliaazari.bsky.social is great on all this: newrepublic.com/article/1917...

Once upon a time, these were actions by a private company. Now they are actions being undertaken by a high-ranking government official, in connection with his public activities. This raises 1A issues that didn’t exist before.

“So Elon Musk killed this program for disabled kids (illegally) because it included the word ‘transition.’ It helps them to transition from high school to work.” H/T @palafo.bsky.social, who posted the above on another platform.

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

New in PN: AOC shows how to fight back and stand strong "Prominent figures standing up can undermine the climate of fear that MAGA relies on to impose terror. AOC’s work on behalf of her constituents and refusal to be intimidated are models of resistance other Democrats would do well to imitate."

As U.S.-Russian talks on ending the war in Ukraine kicked off in Saudi Arabia on Feb. 18, Keith Kellogg, U.S. President Donald Trump's special envoy for Russia and Ukraine, appears to have been partially sidelined from the negotiations.

This might be a good time to remind people that the Nazis were on a ton of drugs. The regime encouraged it.

“How do you govern a nation with a fair chunk of people who are politically insane” Part 5,728 h/t @editorialboard.bsky.social

This is a dead on assessment of the right-wing adherents to the new administration. It is their tactic du jour, & they all do it. Dare to disagree & they'll angrily yell at you, without stopping for air, preventing you from response, & flooding you with their vitriol. They are too emotional.

1. There’s a clip going around, thanks to the indefatigable @atrupar.com, of a CNN interview with that White House putz, Stephen Miller. In it, Miller defends the president’s colonization of the federal bureaucracy. bsky.app/profile/atru...

We all think this is good news but what it really means is that Trump is acting like a man who will never leave the White House and does not care what you think.

Here's video of Steve Bannon doing a Sieg Heil today at CPAC. It is what it is and it's what Bannon intended. Don't let yourself be gaslit.

Suicide doesn't only affect adults. Out of fear & despair children can feel there is no longer hope. With no sign of help to rescue them they succumb to suicide. To them there is no choice. We need to help spread this number in the most vulnerable areas to save the children.

I guess the broligarchy would argue that the private sector can do this work, but evidence suggests the broligarchy's interests are more in space ships, AI and shooting cars through tunnels than, say, healthcare.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

This will go down as the real end.

Ukrainian soldiers lament low-quality local ammunition production, boding ill for a war effort without foreign weapons aid.

Trump/Russia pays off for Putin again as Trump says Ukraine “started it,” spouting Moscow’s biggest lie. Trump/Russia was never a “hoax”; it is and always was real.

Donald Trump is dancing like a monkey for Putin. Embarrassing.
