damn that's crazy bro what's he up to rn

The endgame of years of conservative imposed austerity.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

"We are in the midst of a global fight between Western liberal democracy and authoritarian government, and in this fight, the United States has just switched sides and signed up with the authoritarian camp." - Francis Fukuyama www.persuasion.community/p/the-ultima...

Kash Patel's "enemies list" includes Republicans. He's the new head of the FBI thanks to Republicans who voted to confirm him. Destroying yourself to own the libs. Good luck.

📢 “He’s trying to steal Medicaid to enrich himself. He’s gutting NASA to line his pockets with SpaceX. He’s looting everything good in America for private profit.” - @aoc.bsky.social at today’s #SaveOurServices NYC rally. The fight isn’t over. Join us: go.savepublicservices.com

Put aside the nastiness of this post, & the way in he attacks Zelenskyy as a dictator but says not a word about his pal Putin, & just focus on the way it is written: would you hire this weird person to work for you? Would you trust this odd person to teach your kid in school?

It's not lost on me that the two Democratic electeds talking consistently to regular people right now are AOC and Jasmine Crockett. Dassit.

Oh, look what normal countries do when a former president leads a far right coup attempt.

trying to imagine how loud the calls for my firing would be if i didn’t know who FDR was

Trump on Hannity just now: "I always respected [Musk]" Trump in 2022:

I follow French politics a lot, as many of you know. Any effort for mass layoffs of public sector employees there would create such huge strikes and marches, the level of disruption and paralysis would be biblical.

this is one of the funniest things a national politician has ever posted. he live-tweets a tv show during an ongoing constitutional crisis and when someone tells him they find this irritating he’s like “hey listen, this show meant a lot to me when i was a 30-year-old boy”

i will become a total shill for whichever politician decides to become the joe mccarthy of rooting out silicon valley ideology and influence

If they honestly believe that Biden was our Robespierre, they are incredibly unprepared for what tangible, real pushback would look like. Softest people alive. That's what should, in theory, make certain things far simpler than they would be if these were competent people.

Lavrov and Rubio are the new Molotov-Ribbentrop seeking to carve up Ukraine.

“Elon Musk is not the leader of DOGE — the mysterious Trump administration operation overseeing an effort to break and remake the federal bureaucracy. In fact, he’s not even technically part of it at all, the White House said in court papers Monday night.”

ANOTHER airplane crash. So many casualties and crashes over the past month. It's almost as if we should have had an FAA chief, head of TSA and not put a freeze on qualified air traffic controllers. But, hey, President Musk wants more of the pie so Trump will give it to him. Good luck, Americans.

Elon Musk is an idiot on an almost inconceivable scale. He had his high-school toadies pull a random list from a database he doesn’t understand, and on that basis alone decided that 60 MILLION SOCIAL SECURITY ENROLLEES, out of 72 million total, are fraudulent. 83% fraudulent!

Trafficking is a central theme of the QAnon worldview, with the idea that Trump would act to stop it when in office. Instead...

People need to understand this is a smash and grab. The billionaire oligarchs are looting the government right now. While most services and functions will be privatized and made worse, the real valuable heist is the data government has that Elon is stealing to feed his AI company.

These are the ads about Elon Musk that the Washington Post refused to run. The paper offered NO EXPLANATION. This is the problem with outlets that are CONTROLLED BY BILLIONAIRES focused on ingratiating themselves with Trump. Support independent media: muskwatch.com/subscribe

Always listen to the transit nerds.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

we're about to get a real time demo of why appointing TV hosts to every key position is such a stupid idea no country does it

Probationary in this context just means recent hire. It's not a reflection of work performance. A lot of union jobs have a probationary period where you can be fired more easily

The new iconic photo that i predicted ultimately destroys the relationship:

people hate hearing the truth but how ppl feel about musk is literally a litmus test to see who would send their bank details to nigerian prince and who would not

Millions of federal workers are subject to drug tests; why not require members of congress to take cognitive fitness tests

GigSlave Goes Public With $84 Billion Valuation. The popular slave-hailing app made its Wall Street debut today with a highly anticipated IPO that could grow the slave sharing company's value by more than 80%.

there is such a pathological fear among dem electeds of backlash that it leads them to basically do nothing

Thank you Denmark 🇩🇰 🤣🤣🤣

The fundamental flaw with the Democratic Party is that they do not recognize themselves as political leaders who drive and shape public opinion, but as especially powerful bureaucrats. It’s probably related to how many of them come urban machines where getting elected is basically getting promoted
