This seems stupid but given who is in charge not all that surprising. Elon must have something up his sleeve though as encouraging such infrastructure helps him. Might be a privatization move.

I’m just gonna say it…. White people shouldn’t be allowed to use the phrase “Good Trouble” because y’all always fuck up the meaning of black people’s words.

This is the game. For all the marbles. The “Again” in MAGA is all about pre-1965 America. It is Jim Crow 2.0. This is what white Americans who voted for this monster have ushered in. Why? Because they are too fragile to compete in real terms. Full stop.

While the result of their motives hasn’t manifested, the desire and intent is quite clear. They are prepared to do just that. The question really is whether or not they will succeed.

Trump wanted someone he could bully most likely. Interesting that he fires a 4-star and replaces him with a 3-star. I thought it was about putting the best people in these positions? I think we understand the real reasons.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

They are using norms and the “rule-of-law” to undo democracy. The GOP is complicit. Dems are powerless.

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

Republicans are embracing full on fascism. Nazi salutes, siding with murderous dictators, trash talking our allies, promoting hate, racist ideology, and bigotry, as well as, gaslighting Americans 24/7. In 30 days Trump & Republicans have managed to tank America’s reputation. The world hates us.

This is outstanding, from seven law profs at Brigham Young University. "Under our Constitution, presidents are not above the law, whatever their motives." Our system is built not on the opinions of a French military dictator, but on the separation of powers, which protects us all. [Deseret News]

Americans are particularly-and dangerously-invested in messiah narratives. I’ve been fascinated with cults my entire life. What they generally have in common: 1) they are run by weirdos that people assume are intelligent 2) they gain steam when societies face problems that can’t easily be solved.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.
