Elon paying random right-wing e-girls he picked up on twitter to have his kids by IVF is evidence that there is in fact such a thing as western decadence.

I don't disagree with you at all. If the strategy is to always hold back and wait for the next fight, soon there will be a lot less left to fight for.

And for the third straight day, the rest of the legacy media did nothing to stand up for the First Amendment. No boycott, no walkout, nothing but business as usual. Then, they wonder why people are canceling subscriptions and turning off their TV's while independent news outlets are thriving.

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

So much passive voice.

What an a**hole! new.deepleftfield.info

Last year, law enforcement intercepted about 19 kilograms of fentanyl at the US-Canada border. At the southern border, agents seized 9,600 kilograms. The idea that Canada is a major source of drugs is a lie, and this admin is hoping you’re stupid enough to believe it.

Elon Musk is NOT a legitimate government official -- he was not approved by Congress, and he has ZERO legal authority. He cannot shut down agencies. He cannot access Social Security numbers and payment info for millions of Americans. Take him to court and SHUT HIM DOWN.

Get them out of government. Most not old enough to be elected to anything. One suspects they are part of Musk’s gaming posse.

Trump got Mexico to send the same 10,000 troops to the border that Biden already got them to commit. Trump got Canada to agree to the same measures to fight fentanyl that Biden already got them to agree to six weeks ago. Wow. What a dealmaker!

Wait so a president can just make up a department and pick an unelected head and then let him seize control of the government? Is this really what we’re dealing with here?

😂😂

He's a super freak and not in a cool Rick James kind of way. Cringe.

The guy overseeing USAID was identified two years ago as a Jan. 6 participant who entered the Capitol through a broken window. www.nbcnews.com/politics/whi...

contrarian.substack.com/p/george-con... now they just think Trump is a confused old man. They are not wrong

Pass it on

Wanda Sykes FTW! new.deepleftfield.info

A time for ‘a look inward’, if ever there was one…👇 Thanks Canada, for a reminder that needs to be said, out loud! Introspection. Defined. ✨

Well played, President Claudia Sheinbaum, for committing troops already at the border since 2021, knowing perfectly well President Man Baby would have no idea and take it as a win.

Conservative budget wonks (Manhattan Instiutte, Tax Foundation) confirming that this is a consittutional crisis. Not liberal hysteria. Happening right now.

“We don’t have a 4th branch of government called Elon Musk.” Thank you @raskin.house.gov

The irony is stunning…

Despite being an official campaign partner and hosting Trump events, the mainstream media never once asked Trump about Kirk’s attacks on Black pilots, Black professionals, MLK, and the Civil Rights Act.

We are quite literally seeing the collapse of the United States and democracy in real time second by second. I’ll never forgive anyone who chose this monstrous outcome.

Trump has the Army Corps of Engineers draining some of California's reservoirs, where we store water for our crops. California produces half the country's fruits and vegetables, so grocery prices will spike as Mexican produce costs more and California produce dies in the fields.

BREAKING: Two USAID security officials denied Elon Musk’s DOGE crew access to classified material that they lacked clearance for. Trump just put them both on leave for doing their job. The lawlessness continues. Please make it STOP!

Trudeau invoked John F. Kennedy. He spoke of sending water bombers to LA He spoke of one of US darkest days, 9/11, when Canada welcomed planes & passengers that could not fly home for several days. Thank you again, Gander Newfoundland, and all of Canada, for being good neighbors & friends.

"We are in a massive massive humanitarian crisis which Trump has inflicted, a man-made crisis... he said 'no more aid' overnight... it should be one of the biggest stories in America... people are going to die because of what Trump, Musk & Rubio have been doing." Me on MSNBC today with Ali Velshi:

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

We are almost two weeks in, and cannot find any authoritative source that can answer one critical question: who does Elon Musk work for? Does he work for the United States government as an employee? As a contractor? It really does matter. And American should know the answer.

I always thought Elon Musk was the most dangerous man in America but I viewed him as a danger primarily in terms of his wealth and his disinformation power. I didn't realize he would pose an actual threat to our form of government, our national security, and our most sensitive personal data. Sheesh.

Elon Musk is not a Federal employee or a political appointee. DOGE is not a real department. None of their activities are legal. This is a coup. The Republicans in Congress are willing participants in it. At what point do Democrats in DC get that and start acting like it? It’s not the price of eggs!
