We had record highs in the economy, jobs, and the stock market, all gone in 30 days. He did that.

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)

NYT now reporting that this video is why Trump fired him: "in Mr. Trump’s eyes, one Trump adviser said on Saturday, there was no coming back for General Brown after he made his video.” Which confirms everything General Brown said in it. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/u...

👊 #TeslaTakedown

These men are cowards. All of them. Never forget that.

The shareholders at Tesla would probably like to ask a similar question: "Elon, what did you get done for us last week, other than further alienating our most likely customers with your obnoxious fascist stunts?

This is such condescending BS.

The resignation of a federal employee must be voluntary. I highly doubt failure to respond to this email---sent on a Saturday---would be understood by any court to be a voluntary resignation.

Someone’s lying here, big time. And just this once, I don’t think it’s Trump.

In many ways, technology can be our friend, but in the emerging field of AI being used to replace, and frankly steal, human creator’s work, I think we need to be very, very hesitant to let corporations and governments make sweeping laws that allow for wholesale pillaging of creative work.

We can’t “both sides” a fundamental issue of our country’s survival from a self serving smug flatulent (probably) felon who wants to grab our resources by the you-know-what and leave the Canadian people destitute

Because mediocre men like Trump and Hegseth are white supremacists who can’t fathom that a Black General could rise to the rank of Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, they abruptly terminated his command and further insulted him, and all of us, by slandering his ascension as “a woke DEI hire.”

🧵 I went to work in Congress with a Member who was raised in South Africa and part of the anti-apartheid movement. She taught me how to optimize the power of the opposition in the House. Like the trimtab on the rudder, members can steer the ship. Here are the six R's of minority power.

Imagine how news media would respond if it was Harris saying this after a dozen eggs topped $8 nationally

🫡🇺🇸 "Americans do not swear an oath to a king, a tyrant or a dictator. We swear an oath to the Constitution and the idea of ​​America, for which we are willing to die," — Mark Milley ❗️He said that every US military member gives his life to protect the Constitution, not to individuals.

"the poll shows that majorities oppose cutting taxes on corporations. It finds that 63 percent say their top priority for tax policy is helping 'working-class families,' versus one percent—no, really, one percent—who say it’s helping corporations and the wealthiest Americans."

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.

That took a minute. "Stocks sold off on Friday as new U.S. data sparked concern among investors over a slowing economy and sticky inflation, leading them in search of safer assets." www.cnbc.com/2025/02/20/s...

Huge thank you to Montana for this heartwarming tribute. For those that don't know the history, he quit his job managing a billion dollar family fund in 2018 rather than stop criticizing Elon Musk, after Elon himself called his boss to complain. This piece means so much more, coming from him.

Thank you for Republicans for visiting this bastard upon the American people.

Hilarious misidentification in The New York Times article about the Lorne Michaels archive at the University of Texas. www.nytimes.com/interactive/... The letter is not from “Mick Jagger” but from Mike Myers, it’s signed by him, and it’s on stationery from his production company, Eric’s Boy, Inc.

It’s a reality TV clown show.

Holy crap. At his town hall last night, Rep. Rich McCormick compared *his own constituents* who asked him tough and fair questions to January 6 insurrectionists

Texas thug AG Ken Paxton wants to look inside your daughter's panties, the sick fuck. abcnews.go.com/Sports/wireS...

Americans proposed that Ukraine concede half of the profits from its mineral rights in perpetuity... in exchange for essentially nothing. This is not a monetary proposition, let alone a "deal," but rather the demand that Ukraine become a permanent American colony. snyder.substack.com/p/recoup-the...

This would be impactful.

Man, it's a shame nobody warned consumers that prices wouldn't magically return to 2019 and that a deranged tyrant would spike inflation again.

THIS! 1000 times THIS!! And, maybe build a shadow cabinet that works on the rebuttals and gives us weekly, alternative messaging and the facts to skirt around the MSM BS we suffer from today!

The Daily Beast: What is this Elon Salute what can it mean French Nazis: too Nazi for us

Critics, supporters sound off on N.S. government move to pursue fracking #NovaScotia #nspoli I do not support this at all. 🤬 www.ctvnews.ca/atlantic/nov...

Nonprofits suing the Trump admin over a funding freeze are accusing DOJ of retaliation + trying to chill future lawsuits by asking a judge to require them to post bond -- a demand the judge said she hadn't seen before from the executive branch www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Dear Daily Beast, Kindly emend headline to: STEVE BANNON STILL NAZI No charge. You’re welcome.

Important thread. 👇 Shutting down Social Security is theft. No different than stealing your 401K.

My ketamine experience was more “receive the wisdom of my ancestors” and not “let’s kill the poors.” I guess for Elon thats really more of a “yes, and.”

Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.
