It’s not just Space X. Musk was able to save Tesla because of a loan from the Dept of Energy. Here he is in 2013 filled with gratitude for the federal agency & the taxpayers who saved his business. From reporting by @puck.news. airmail.news/issues/2025-...

"Six weeks ago, we had the strongest economy, employment, and stock market in history. ..All gone in 30 days."

Heroin addict and steroid abuser wants the rest of us to to make as smart decisions about our health as he has.

200 million dollars of waste.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Canadians are now referring to the United States as the 11th province

...they're eating the protections for the people who live there.

calling it: this nike spot is the best one of the day

We know what’s going on here.

Tesla paid $0 in federal income tax last year. 2022: $0 2021: $0 2020: $0 2019: $0 2018: $0 Tesla reported $6.7 billion in profit in those years.

He is doing this. Trump “and people close to him have threatened to use the FCC to punish news networks, to defund PBS and even to prosecute journalists for their coverage of the investigations and criminal cases against Mr. Trump and his supporters.” www.nytimes.com/2025/02/09/b...

“A new analysis by independent automotive blog FuelArc suggests that fire fatalities are 17 times more likely in a Cybertruck than in the infamous Ford Pinto — the posterchild deadly cars if ever there was one.”

They suck equally hard.

Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?

a good part of me thinks that in addition to everything else, the reason they are scrubbing these stories is they do not want disadvantaged kids to believe they can aspire to anything other than their designated “black” or “hispanic” or “woman” job

BREAKING: A federal judge just blocked Elon Musk's DOGE from accessing your private data. DOGE must also destroy any copies of the data they made. This is a good day for Minnesotans, but the work of protecting our democracy is ongoing. Stay vigilant. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/07/n...

Pregnant USAID official files affidavit in lawsuit describing disruption of medical care as a result of agency's dismantling. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

A fake billionaire is letting a fake genius destroy America because a bunch of fake patriots are too stupid, too entitled and too hateful to understand the difference between what is fake news and what is fact.

The next Kennedy Center Honorees. Then, the Center and its awards will be renamed for a more recent president, the current one, and the woke rainbow ribbon design of the award will be replaced with bedazzled gold lamé.

Here’s what we did today

is it woke to want to end cancer?

🤷🏻

If Biden wants access to classified materials he'll have to book a tee time at Mar-a-Lago like everyone else.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Oops 😬

The rush to destroy things like USAID and other agencies before lawsuits can stop them is to make it moot. When our stupidly slow judicial system finally moves to stop them it will be far too late. If all 10,000 USAID employees are home and projects abandoned it’s done. It’s evil.

Every single one of them deserves PRISON.

i don’t even know if crime is the right word for the illegal destruction of USAID. it is an autocratic power grab and a direct attack on the sovereignty of the american people

Just a reminder that the whole point of Guantanamo Bay is that American laws do not apply there. I cannot express how horrifying this is — and how much worse it will get. www.cnn.com/2025/02/04/p...

Vaccines do not cause autism. Full stop. You will never be wrong standing up for what is right and what is true.

If I scheduled a general strike to take place on the 5th of every month, would you be willing to participate?

Dear Leaders of the Free World, Fight him at every turn. Make his life miserable. Expose his ignorance and sociopathy. Oppose and condemn and marginalize him. The decent people of this nation are not with him. We stand with you. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/dear-world...

There is no such fucking thing as being “too woman” to pilot a helicopter, “too gay” to land a plane or “too black” to be an air traffic controller. There is however, such a thing as being too hateful, too stupid & too sociopathic to be president. And we call that Donald Trump.

Congratulations to @kenmartin.bsky.social, the new Chairman of the Democratic Party! Ken has been a very successful chair in Minnesota, and a tireless champion of a modern 50 state strategy. Join me in helping Ken get off to a strong start…. www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/congratula...

Trump fires elite federal law enforcement officers to make room for criminals. Consequently, the corrupt will prosper and evade prosecution, the virtuous will be investigated, and all will be extorted and corrupted.

If you’re a government employee, thank you for your service & here’s a resource you may find helpful. Stay strong. www.civilservicestrong.org

The USA has had two major plane crashes in the last 4 days. The USA had previously not suffered a major plane crash for 16 years. ‘DEI’ programs have existed for decades. So what was it that changed in the last 14 days or so to suddenly cause so many crashes?

Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive): 1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment* 2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything 3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can 4. Citizens march en mass

"We know you’re out of power. We understand you’re in the minority. We hear that, loud and clear. What we’re not hearing is your anger. We’re not hearing your outrage. We’re wondering whether or not you actually hear us." charlotteclymer.substack.com/p/comms-advi...

We need to amplify this—the Republican House refused Secretary Buttigieg’s request for safety improvements at Reagan International.

Bodies are still being pulled from the Potomac. The President and extreme MAGA Republicans are blaming women and people of color for the deadly plane crash. At the same time, they are dismantling the Federal Aviation Administration as we know it. Disgusting.
