Sieg heil.

"The term DEI, frequently invoked by the Trump administration, functions as a smoke screen" read @adamserwer.bsky.social on the real goals of the 'anti-DEI' rhetoric www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

What it’s like to watch as the elites party, booze, and toast Trump, as the American empire self immolates around them/us

I agree with Grok.

Elon Musk is paid TENS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS to be the CEO of Tesla. What did Elon get done last week for Tesla?

They do nothing that does not have corruption at its core. Follow the money.

Alarms are blinking red

Truly frightening to see civil-military relations experts be so distraught today. I hadn't understood that no POTUS has ever replaced the top brass 1 month into office plus fired the JAGs. We’re in autogolpe territory, more so if Trump changes the head of Northern Command.

For years I've been trying to explain to people that U.S. Christian evangelicals are openly antisemitic while simultaneously support Israel due to their weird End Times/Judgement Day fixation. And now Nazi Steve Bannon just states it outright.

This is how I would respond to the email Musk has had sent to government employees (not legal advice). 1. Refused to violate the law. 2. Refused to violate the Constitution. 3. Refused to bow or scrape. 4. Refused to bend a knee. 5. Deleted this stupid email.

Dear all federal employees, DO. NOT. RESPOND. Default to your union now. Musk has zero official authority in government. Dare him to fire the entire federal government on Monday.

👇How it started. Pls read it. "The spy chief wanted KGB staff abroad to recruit more Americans." www.politico.com/magazine/sto...

He wasn’t groping him. He was giving him an underhand Nazi salute.

I math-ed it out, and right now your DOGE dividend is on track to be $4.29. Let me show my work.

Maybe I’ll treat my family to 4 or 5 eggs.

There's a lot of dishonesty some people are gonna need to tell themselves to make sense of how they helped drive the country into the ditch it's in

Why did you get DOGEd? Because I knew basic anti-phishing guidelines.

Who could have guessed that the former leader of the Proud Boys—convicted of sedition because of January 6th—would, after Trump pardoned him, start to harass the hero cops of January 6th? Who could ever have guessed it? (This went down at the Principles First conference in D.C.)

It's not just one instance of a billion being only a million: "DOGE's only public ledger is riddled with mistakes," a team of New York Times reporters found. The figures are "full of accounting errors, outdated data and other miscalculations." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

Emails have gone out to federal employees. Subject: "What did you do last week?" Please reply to this email with approx. 5 bullets of what you accomplished last week and cc your manager. Please do not send any classified information, links, or attachments. Deadline is this Monday at 11:59pmEST.

Not content with purchasing the presidency, Elon Musk now wants to buy the Wisconsin Supreme Court as well. His PAC just pumped $1M into supporting anti-choice right-wing extremist Brad Schimel. Wisconsin — don't become Musk's latest acquisition! Vote @crawfordforwi.bsky.social.

The Elon regime is effectively about making the lives of hundreds of thousands of government employees miserable. Not even so they quit, tho that too, but first and foremost out of an ideological commitment to hating public sector workers & public services.

"President Trump will work from early in the morning until late in the evening. He will make many calls and have many meetings.”

Much of the chaos of the past few weeks can be understood as part of the Trump administration’s “central ideological project: restoring America’s traditional hierarchies of race and gender,” @adamserwer.bsky.social writes. Call it the “Great Resegregation.”

This is the use of US power to serve Musk's interests

DANCE FOR ME, PEASANTS! DANCE!

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.

You don't fire Judge Advocates General unless you plan on issuing unlawful orders. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-f...

He nails it.

Trump on Ukraine: "I want them to give us something for all of the money that we put up and I'm gonna try and get the war settled and I'm try and get all that death ended. We're asking for rare earth and oil, anything we can get. But we feel so stupid. It affects Europe. It doesn't really affect us"

"It's almost impossible to believe he exists. It's as if you took everything that was bad about America, scraped it off the floor, put it in an old hot dog skin & taught it to make noises with its mouth" #PRESIDEMENTIA

on top of this being unenforceable bullshit, many federal employees cannot even access their email on the weekend without a work VPN. others can, but (unlike in musk’s world) it’s actually frowned upon to access off duty.

I love the idea that the ketamine and video game junky with 13 (known) kids who posts 200 times a day and who works for the golfer in chief is worried that *other people* aren’t working hard enough.

Notes from DC. danieldrezner.substack.com/p/the-dark-v...

For those wanting facts versus mal-information from govt officials: Truman relieved MacArthur after he disobeyed several orders, 1 which almost led to World War III w/ China. Obama accepted McChrystal’s resignation when he took responsibility for disrespecting the president’s team to the press.

“The more Trump’s presidency progresses, the more support he will lose,” @yair-rosenberg.bsky.social writes. “Many voters who thought they knew the rules to the game and would turn out the winners are now discovering that they didn’t and won’t.” theatln.tc/hWpkLIVF

ATTENTION, SHOPPERS! We have a Silver Alert! If you’re missing an elderly gentleman, he is in the managers office. He is confused but he is safe.

I completely agree with this, and with the thread. If you don't discuss racism as a giant motivating factor (not the only one, but a huge one), you can't cover this administration, these people, or their party accurately.

Democrats should all start making the jerk off motion when asked about anything Trump-related, just to see how it gets described. “Controversial gesture that suggests self-pleasuring”

I truly think people don’t realize how many universities and colleges — especially public ones — may shut down if restrictions on and withholding of federal funding persists for even one presidency We are facing the demolition of American higher education

Trump did the Tom Hanks SNL skit they were all mad at
