You know what type of people a $5 million "Gold Card" for US citizenship will attract? Successful criminals and state-sponsored spies. Well done, Donald, after years of accusing Democrats of using immigration to bring unsavory people to the US, you prove that you were, once again, just projecting.

Dear media, They aren’t “cutting waste, fraud, and abuse” they are cutting programs and agencies they disagree with ideologically. DO YOUR FUCKING JOBS and stop parroting their talking points.

This is how I would respond to the email Musk has had sent to government employees (not legal advice). 1. Refused to violate the law. 2. Refused to violate the Constitution. 3. Refused to bow or scrape. 4. Refused to bend a knee. 5. Deleted this stupid email.

*Taps 🎤 * Is this thing on? Trump wants control of the USPS so he can fuck with mail in voting. TRUMP WANTS CONTROL OF THE USPS SO HE CAN FUCK WITH MAIL IN VOTING.

If The Gulf of Mexico’s name can be changed because of one man’s whim, I am now renaming the compliant search engine, Vichy Google.

Do I have this right? Elon Musk - the guy in charge of preventing wasteful spending - dropped $40M on a Super Bowl ad? We could permanently house 800 homeless veterans for $40M. Or provide five million meals to the hungry. Or replace lead pipes in 8,500 homes.

Why is Trump the first sitting president to attend a Super Bowl? Because all the presidents before him realized it would be extraordinarily wasteful to spend 15-20 MILLION of our taxpayer dollars to go in person.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Why the fuck is a single Senate Democrat playing “everything is normal” by voting to confirm the Cabinet picks of a fucking dictator? Do. Not. Comply. You have ALL spent the last how many years calling him Hitler and now you’re like, ‘I’m a yes on Goebbels and here’s why…” Fuck that. Stop it. Now.

Now that Trump fired 17 Inspectors General, can we dispense with the notion that DOGE [sic] is about government efficiency? Trump just told us -- he doesn't WANT efficiency, he wants graft.

Easiest layup question in media today: ask Republican elected officials if Trump should have pardoned the January 6th folks who violently attacked cops that day.

They say criminals always return to the scene of the crime. Trump will be holding his inauguration in the Capitol Rotunda.

The capitulation is complete. Jodi Ernst signals her support of Pete Hegseth, an alleged sexual predator. Ernst, a veteran and a survivor of sexual assault, has no principles. She's chosen to risk our national security by installing an unqualified hack to preserve her power.

Merrick Garland, Drop the appeal to reinstate the indictments for Nauta and De Oliveira. The Trump DOJ will do it anyway. Release both volumes of the Special Counsel report. Do not become an unwitting accomplice in their efforts to suppress the truth. Sincerely, Sane America

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million. That is a lie. The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.

x X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m. Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app? If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.
