What’s with people backing into parking spaces?

Incredibly chilling and clear-eyed piece from @frank-bowman.bsky.social spelling out the implications of Trump’s latest executive orders—which, stripped of their muddled legalese, essentially anoint him as a monarch with absolute power. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Drug-addled Elon Musk should be sent to a wellness farm. Preferably in Panama, El Salvador or Guantanamo.

New Editor Commentary: Under the current program of wild, mindless destruction, Ohio doctors, farmers, veterans, teachers, professors, students, working families, and children with disabilities, are all being terrorized by the Musk, Trump, Vance regime.

Incredible public service. @propublica.org has catalogued the DOGE crew and their links to Elon. projects.propublica.org/elon-musk-do...

@repgreglandsman.bsky.social

The past ten years has just been the same clutch of morons and apologists insisting that Trump would never cross that line and then shuffling along with him to insist that he would never cross that next one.

Ah shit it turns out the problem with conservatism is that conservatives are all evil

I will vote for the first candidate who tells me they're going to make the biggest government possible. Reacher-sized agencies. Braun Strowman-level social benefits. Government so big it starts belching out National Parks and free healthcare. Chungus State.

The DOGE firings have nothing to do with “efficiency” or “cutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. 🧵⬇️

Garcia: The fact that the Trump DOJ now wants to silence members of Congress because we’re actually willing to take on Elon Musk is quite dangerous. It’s incredibly disturbing. But we’re not going to be silenced. We’ve got to push back.

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

Trickle up economics.

Works as advertised

NEW: Texas Banned Abortion. Then Sepsis Rates Soared. ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis is the most detailed look yet into a rise in life-threatening complications for women experiencing pregnancy loss under Texas’ abortion ban.

This lie will be the pretext for appeasing Putin. Appeasing dictators didn’t work in Europe in the 1930s, and it won’t work now. This is a Russia First move.

"They're putting persecuted Christian refugees in camps in the jungle" sounds like something Glenn Beck would accuse the Obama administration of doing and yet now it's a pillar of the Republican agenda.

Incredible stuff in here: They ID'ed him, in part, by going to court hearings and watching him post

Interesting read - 'Conspiracists are about to get a dose of reality' www.thetimes.com/article/b3bb...

1. Meta removed a Facebook ads criticizing Elon Musk's efforts to seize Americans' private information through DOGE. A notice from Meta said the ads violated its rules on "Unacceptable Business Practices."

Why is Trump making all the planes crash

Time for some Streisand effect

DOGE2025 Is Getting the Catastrophic De-Ba'athification They Demanded www.emptywheel.net/2025/02/17/d...

seems like it is a big deal that the unifying ideology of the doge team is neo nazism

ZELENSKYY: The risk that Russia will occupy Europe is 100 percent WELKER: If the US pulls out of NATO, Russia will occupy Europe? ZELENSKYY: Yes
