My brother who is a genius has worked as an engineer for NASa all his adult life. He worked selflessly supporting our space program apolitically for decades. Tonight he doesn’t know if he will have a job tomorrow because of a fool named Elon Musk .

Suggested changes: The far-right AfD, backed by JD Vance and Elon Musk, was rejected by 80 percent of voters, exit polls suggest. Mainstream parties plan to form a coalition without them because voters don't want them to govern.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

I am so sick of this shit. It’s a Sieg Heil. It’s a Nazi salute. Anyone who sees it knows. It’s ridiculous that legal departments presumably won’t let media call it what it is. Bannon made “a provocative gesture that resembled the salute Elon Musk gave at a post-inauguration rally”? Fuck off.

I've been writing BLOOD IN THE MACHINE for months, but I was on the fence about going all-in. Recent events have made the call easier. Elon Musk, the Silicon Valley oligarchs and their AI are taking over. I want to do all I can to push back. I hope you'll join me, and I'm asking for your support.

I really don't understand why pundits don't understand this. MANY of you have better platforms than any Democrat this side of AOC. If you spend all your time whining (some more) about Democrats, then you are being just as feckless, you are giving the GOP just as much of a pass, as the Dems are.

Elon musk is the richest man in the world, he could be funding hospitals, medical research and universities. He could be solving the climate crisis. He could be feeding, hungry children. Instead, he’s trying to make sure that your grandmother doesn’t get an extra dollar of Social Security.

New, from me: Stepping back from the flood of news, I outline three ways to understand how Trump 2.0 is different from his first, or any prior, presidency: personalism, governing by fear, and purges. 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-person...

Here's a report Trump's DOGE guy at Treasury is using to justify snooping at Treasury. It cites as much as $281.4B in improper payments (for FY 2021, which started in October 2020). But much of this is COVID related. And what is not was also a problem under Trump. www.gao.gov/assets/gao-2...

The SAVE Act is systemic misogyny. It would disenfranchise tens of millions of women--those who changed their name after marriage but don't have either a birth certificate or a passport with their new legal name.

To take this seriously: Most of these are spending on DEI & LGBTQ issues. But Trump has banned any agency from spending on these topics in the future. His position is that lawful actions that align with a past President's agenda are grounds for firing all employees and shutting down the agency.
