If you know the two citations in the name of the new Elon Musk child, you're now even more concerned than before. And that's saying something. Like Trump—who's clearly a captured Kremlinist—Musk is doing nothing to hide what he is: a dangerous transhumanist cretin who longs for a Yarvinist genocide.

These fascist monsters are committed to the creation of a New Axis of Evil in which Trump and Musk work with Putin, Xi Jinping, Kim Jong-un, Netanyahu, Milei, Modi, MBS, MBZ, Orbán, Erdoğan and other butchers to subjugate the decent folks on Earth There's little time left for America to save itself

If a congressional leader says stupid things, it’s probably not because they’re stupid. It’s because for political reasons they have to defend something indefensible.

As long as Elon Musk is running his mouth about Social Security—which he appears to be trying to understand in real-time—I’ll note that DOGE has yet to find a single instance of fraud across the entire government, as I reported for @atrupar.com this week. www.publicnotice.co/p/despite-th...

Johnson was saying the exact same thing when Musk was showing that he didn't understand the structure and function of the Social Security database tables.

An NPR review of new data added to DOGE's "wall of receipts" finds the group quietly changed previous errors, added new ones and still has little verified savings to show for its work.

Craig Unger, an American journalist and writer who has written two books on Trump’s connections to Russia, says he is "absolutely certain" that the U.S. president is a Russian asset. The Kyiv Independent sat down with Unger to hear what makes him so certain.

So let's review. Over the last 24 hrs we've learned that two DOGErs embedded at IRS are finalizing a plan to share your tax data with people throughout the government; that's plainly illegal. Meanwhile Mike Johnson claims that Elon is already pouring your Social Security data into his AI and he's...

Many caveats here. I don't understand much of this myself. I'm only trying to learn—not come to conclusions. I post this only to ask if anyone with relevant expertise has seen this video—and its many charts—and finds it compelling. (Do ignore the splashy title—this is a dry and sober assessment.)

No Democrat should be attending Trump’s joint address. The idea being pushed by Jeffries that they will push back with guests is dumb. Trump is a tyrant thug and participating in the speech pageantry assists tyranny.

Musk just gave the game away in his interview with Joe Rogan. He said that it's because of Social Security that "people are living longer than expected"—which coupled with a lower U.S. birth rate creates a situation he finds intolerable. He _is_ a Yarvinist—and he's coming for our Social Security.

So there are so few talented people in New York City—which deems itself the center of the world—that the main candidates are a criminal (Adams) and a known heel (Cuomo)? This is disgraceful. This is why people hate politics. U.S. politics would rather resurrect a PoS than develop _any_ new talent.

It occurs to me that not everyone knows how to get to Sugarbush, the ski resort JD Vance is visiting. It’s a great mountain, but even if you don’t ski, it’s a beautiful drive to get there, especially on a clear day like tomorrow. You can get directions here. You’re welcome!

I love that folks are calling out JD (on vacation, again, while he fires the people who do the real work). But I wonder what would make him care. Like maybe get nuns out?
