🚨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!

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Ketchup On Walls Alert: HIGH

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

Remember this day. The last full day with a Democratic President. We don’t know when or if we’ll ever live another day like this. 🥺

Please please please watch this. Please.

Pass it on. Text your friends, family, and neighbors.

Did I ever imagine that a single post of mine on social media would get this sort of attention—leading to interview requests from across the world, invitations to international conferences, requests to purchase the film rights to my biographical research and writing on Elon Musk? That would be a no.

My friend Jeff Vespa put this together with his kid’s school. Open today (1/12/25) 10am - 6pm LILA Fire Disaster Distribution Center located at LA River Studios, 2800 Division Street, Los Angeles, CA 90065. Come and get what you need.

Whoever did this is a goddamn genius.

NEW: President Biden has issued sweeping deportation protections ahead of Trump's second term. www.cnn.com/2025/01/10/p...

Check out the Carter Center’s photo from the funeral this morning and who’s obscured. This photographer needs a raise. 🤣

Except that Canada is never going to be a state, and continuing to discuss it after the Canadians have made clear it's not happening sounds a lot like professing a rooting interest for a war crime or coddling the dementia of a career criminal, adjudicated rapist, serial sexual predator and sociopath

Canadian MP Charlie Angus responded to Trump's proposal to make Canada the 51st U.S. state by noting that existing laws prevent "sexual abusers" from leading his nation.

My message to Zuck

Thank you President Carter

I had to go look this up in the Twitter archives to confirm it’s real... ...and it is. Breathtaking.

One of the very few good things that could, maybe, hopefully, emerge from the disastrous Trump reign is Americans realizing the billionaire class is a bunch of corrupt, self-serving, overhyped freaks. Maybe this country will stop worshipping them and start resenting them as our enemies.

At 5 1/2 years old, this big and playful boy thrives as the center of attention and would do best as your one-and-only pet. He is a participant in our Purrfectly Independent program. No adoption fee. 2 years veterinary care at Feline Wellness Center. 🎉 www.crashslanding.org/adopt/process/

Shameful decision from Sweden which has no excuse for exterminating wolves like this. Imagine India decided to halve its tiger population, or Kenya its lions? There'd be an outcry. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Seems like the FBI finding 150 homemade bombs at the home of a guy who uses Biden’s picture for target practice should be a bigger story. Apparently he may get released on a $25,000 bond. More: abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory...

The rules of the internet clearly state that when you see Tom Holland’s lip sync battle, you must re-post it.

I feel like not enough people know that Elon Musk first became wealthy by being so awful at running a company that his own management team mutinied when he went on his honeymoon; his own board of directors then fired him; and his replacement then turned the company into PayPal. 1/
