Yesterday was President's Day in America. Did you hear much about the nationwide protests? No? That's because ALL the major networks (@CNN @ABC @CBSNews @MSNBC) barely mentioned the activism, unlike every other major news outlet on earth. US media = cowards.🤨 www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Big, growing crowd just west of the U.S. Capitol protesting Trump, Musk and DOGE on President’s Day. “Hey Congress, grow a spine,” they shout, gathering for a rally around the reflecting pool.

For what it’s worth, not a fucking penny, not a word in support, not a tweet, not a single vote for any of these Chamberlin-esque appeasers. Fuck you. Do what we hired (voted you in) to do. I’d call you fucking babies, but babies at least make noise.

The greatest business battle EVER to be fought will come when President Elon starts trying to implement AI for federal processes. The battle will be fought over which company’s AI will be used by the feds. This is a zero sum battle that will create more chaos than this country has ever seen

Hearing that @CDCgov personnel on probationary list are getting termination letters this evening. If you’re one of them, you can reach me securely on Signal at LenaSun.04. I promise to keep your name confidential. We want to get a sense of who’s been cut. DMs ok too. Also [email protected]

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

Was thinking of starting a GoFundMe to raise money for an expedition to find the Democratic Party a spine but I realized that it’s probably atrophied at this point. #invertebrates

When I heard Musk say this on Tuesday, my assumption was that it was a programming issue. Because I can code and have written to databases and because I am familiar with other examples of default values being misinterpreted. Yet somehow Musk isn't.

Trump declared on Truth Social, “I will soon be announcing a new roster of ballerinas, with an amazing principal ballerina, DONALD J. TRUMP.”

There is going to come a time in the very near future where the only way to resolve this is for every non-MAGA media company to band together and simply refuse to walk into the presser or attend the event. Because he wants the coverage more than anything else. Divided you fall.

Being “saved” from a killpen was just the beginning of a living hell for #wildhorses Finn & Tristan. Cruelty & greed motivated multiple players to profit off their suffering while pretending (and fundraising) to help them. We have saved them for real and for the rest of their lives. bit.ly/3EHtW0L

The love and care that goes into this process is the heart and soul of #SkydogSanctuary. Twice a year, we bring in small groups of #wildhorses to trim hooves, deworm, vaccinate them, check weight & condition. This keeps them in the best shape and maintains the good health of the #herd.

I’m trying to understand why the GOP is attacking big businesses on their business models. The GOP was the party of big business until DeSantis went after Disney. Now they’re going after companies who believe in DEI. Twenty attorneys general are going after Costco. www.wtkr.com/news/politic...

I’m going to keep hitting this until they figure it out, because they are it…the Democrats are THE ONLY political opposition. They had three months to prepare for these acts. And they seem surprised and flat footed.

Crockett: "If feels as if y'all have just decided that y'all are gonna castrate your constitutional duty & hand it over to someone who was unelected. It doesn't matter how many cheerleaders he had on the field campaigning for him. That doesn't mean he gets to go in and sit atop any of our agencies"

I keep hearing Republicans cry because “There aren’t enough Americans who can pass a military physical fitness test”, and now they apparently want to discourage anyone who isn’t a white man from joining up. I mean how stupid to tell 70% of the U.S. that the military doesn’t want them.
