This is a wild, WILD situation. The President is at least allowing, licensing these emails though clearly not directing them. Meanwhile parts of the uniformed military are directing civilians within DOD to ignore them. Same at State and according to Dilanian FBI. But DOJ is saying do what the ...

Musk has gone insane. He is a madman. This is becoming truly dangerous for the country.

So do we need to see this as show of force by a malign hacker? Are we really supposed to believe all federal workers report directly to Musk and not their bosses, even in independent agencies? Musk isn’t trying to reform our govt - he is trying to break it.

Isn't the easiest explanation for the Muskian rampage that he's working on behalf of Putin and extracting fanatical, bloody revenge against US, weakening the country, shrinking our military, destroying our reputation, melting our alliances, making us poorer & now punishing Americans directly?

What the fuck does this even mean? They are just terrorizing millions of hard working Americans for sport. Trump and Musk are the most anti-worker public leaders America may have ever produced.

The Mad King had a bad week - the economy is slowing, inflation is rising, his poll numbers/consumer confidence are falling, cracks are appearing in his Congressional support and folks are starting to rise up against his historic betrayal of America. More 👇 www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/the-mad-ki...

This is direct theft of taxpayer money for political purposes. It is literally stealing.

Coming around to the view that a certain kind of narcissist simply needs Musk to be a genius rather than a fraud, because they want to believe there’s a hereditary Brahmin class of accomplished, beautiful minds—and that they’re a part of that class.

Why would anyone who is a patriot and loves this country do this? Because Trump isn’t a patriot and doesn’t love this country. And together we must stop him.

Remarkable: Trump's own pollster just found that in swing House districts, Dems lead by 5 points and voters want tax policy to prioritize working people, per Politico. Yet GOP is about to brutally slash the safety net and give the rich huge tax cuts! New piece: newrepublic.com/article/1918...

None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

When taking actions late on a Friday night, a government sends a message its trying to pull one over on the public and the media, that it is hiding something or doing something it believes it should not do or will be seen as controversial. That is certainly true in this case.

In addition to being illegal, unconstitutional and wrong, Trump's lawlessness is also an extraordinary abuse of power as we the people have to pay his legal bills and ultimately for the damages his harms will bring. He is legally and financially liable for nothing. Break laws, get sued, we pay.

This is climate arson, yes, but also the entire value proposition of Tesla, the reason for its insane stock price, is that it would end up the Amazon of electric cars: the only real game in town. Killing off non-Tesla electric car infrastructure is a gift to Musk.

The entire American project has been to prevent lunatics like Trump and Musk - Mad Kings - from doing exactly what they are doing right now.

Fellow Blueskyers, my two cents - we need more amplification and less snark on here. Snark interferes with us telling our story and thus helps MAGA. I realize these are tough times but if we are to win we need to be smart, strategic and disciplined at all times. Onward - S
