For years the right dismissed the claim that Trump does Putin’s bidding as conspiratorial derangement. Zelensky didn’t disrespect the U.S. He didn’t disrespect Trump. He’s losing his aid for disrespecting Putin, the man slaughtering his people, which Trump and Vance took as a personal affront.

Don’t worry though, we’re going to patch things up with the rest of the world next week when we slap massive tariffs on them because Trump said America was much richer in 1880 when we had high tariffs. Everyone will want do business w/us, buy our stuff, & come here on vacation!

The GOP propaganda machine didn’t just radicalize its base—it fully captured its own leadership. Now, in response to imaginary grievances, it’s gutting American state capacity and global standing, all while empowering real adversaries. The real risk of WWIII is that fantasies will lead us there.

To the extent that Musk has a super-power it is that he is an obscenely rich person who is willing to confidently say (and get many people to accept) completely untrue things that (coincidentally) always serve his own interests. He's an ignorant person's idea of what an informed person sounds like.

Be clear. $8 billion was an error. They misread $8 million! And it’s not saving. It’s cutting services, necessary research, assistance to millions here and overseas, and enforcement of laws that protect consumers and workers.

This is (as all @rparloff.bsky.social threads are) a great thread. But it primarily deals with Privacy challenges of employees. One reason the AGs suit was differently situated is bc Trump was withholding THEIR $$. Different kind of injury. Also, they added a cybersecurity injury.

This is not just a musing from a dude with some various ideas. The next step is to hollow out the judiciary and also not follow their rulings, which have been against Musk’s efforts. This is a very obvious coup, for those not paying attention.

If these questions are designed to hire people with no grasp on reality, U.S. national security is at significant risk. Was Jan. 6 “an inside job?” Was the 2020 presidential election “stolen?” Who were the “real patriots” on January 6? Who won the 2020 election? Who is your “real boss?”
