...what the hell does that even mean?

Took the time to read this (not long) and withstanding some obvious ring kissing (author believes if Trump was President in 2022 the war would never had started) it's a decent article. I agree on a lot of it, which coming from the New York Post is something I'd never thought I'd say out loud.

i am not a religious buckaroo and dont think i ever will be. this universe is so wonderful and my life so blessed that idea of needing something more does not make any sense to me. what we KNOW about existence already takes my breath away, i do not need the unknown. i am so happy and thankful as is

Let me speak to the DOGE audit language. Many people who work in both the Treasury and specifically the IRS are CPAs. Most audit firms hire CPAs. A 19yo coder has absolutely no idea how to accurately identify waste or fraud. Calling what DOGE is doing as a audit, is a flat out lie.

Amazing day out here and across the country! We have over 70 people at this store in Pasadena. Won't post shots of the crowd, up to others if they want to. This is just the beginning! #TeslaTakedown Teslatakedown.com

Go get 'im.

READ Danielle Sassoon's letter to AG Pam Bondi, via @nytimes.com: "Rather than be rewarded, Adams's advocacy should be called out for what it is: an improper offer of immigration enforcement assistance in exchange for a dismissal of his case." static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics...

"Our Country is going to be flooded with jobs" Just like we're going to be flooded with available homes soon - after all the deportations are complete. Wonder where all those jobs and homes came from?

Brianna Keilar: Do you think that calling Elon Musk a dick is effective messaging? Congressman Robert Garcia: Well, he is a dick.

Here's a list of DOGE staff, assembled and annotated by my colleagues at BI. Whatever you do, please don't share it. www.businessinsider.com/doge-staff-l...

Tesla's stock is ridiculously overvalued, and even a modest consumer boycott could tank the company, which accounts for the majority of Elon Musk's wealth. The divestment movement weakened apartheid South Africa. Let's do that again. slate.com/business/202...

All this and more.

Today the @nytimes.com sought to whitewash its central role in laundering anti-trans falsehoods and turbocharging anti-trans attacks nationwide. My reporting showed that editorial leadership was aware of this depravity which is why this disingenuous piece can’t erase the scale of what they’ve done.

Trump does know that "Springtime For Hitler" isn't a real show, right?

What does that even mean, "people like Chuck Schumer"? I don't know what associations he is making in his dementia addled brain pudding - and why would Israel, whose current government has been clear on their desire to expand to Gaza, just give it to us? Is this more "gun on the table" negotiating?

Not clear to me if Trump is suggesting that the U.S. will genocide the Palestinians out of Israel or just stand by while Israel finishes it.

Do not suffer if you fail to change what cannot be changed. Instead take the opportunity to learn what can be changed.

This is nuts. One of the comments on this thread points out that with these terms flagged for non-award/pulling of grants it is literally impossible to do any kind of gov funded research into HUMAN BEINGS.

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

This is what happens when you ask me to help sanewash the Trump tariffs.

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...
