If you de-zoot the toots here, he’s saying he spent $44b on twitter as part of his right wing political project—which is both obvious and something you can’t say in the newspaper.

This is extraordinarily dangerous. Tomorrow, the legacy media will ask Republican officials about this. Those officials will lie and obfuscate. And the legacy media will move on. That is part of the crisis we face.

Dear Democratic Party: why are you not screaming this from every rooftop? Why are you not holding press conferences with these poor fired people - putting a face on what the richest man is destroying?

One interesting note: @brettaylor.bsky.social who had to deal with Elon in the unsolicited Twitter purchase as chair of the company now has to deal with Elon on the OpenAI folly in the same role. Thoughts and prayers, Bret, on Groundhog Day!

Where did DOGE's recruits come from? Here's what we've discovered. In late 2024, a group of young software engineers fanned out across online chat groups and Discord servers. At least three were associated with Palantir or its cofounder—and Musk ally—Peter Thiel.

On changes to #NIH indirect rates, there is a law in place that prohibits NIH from making such changes without the approval of Congress. See Division D, Title II Section 224 of The Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024 (Public Law No: 118-47) grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

🚨 Thanks to our lawsuit, the world's richest man has been stopped from stealing your data. DOGE's unrestricted access to Treasury systems is incredibly dangerous, and this emergency order halting their access proves it. I'll never stop fighting to protect our residents.

This is insane. Musk, the world's richest man, owner of the most influential political messaging platform, and a de facto government member and top ally to the president, is accusing a journalist of being a criminal, because she reported on one of his racist DOGE staffers. This is fascist behavior.
