Arrived here on 12/13/24 from another site that was supposed to become a "digital town square," but MAGA-morphed Musk changed his mind. Art, science, animal welfare, culture, travel, food, health, fitness... but mostly politics. No MAGAs.📍Los Angeles

Nailed it.

He nails it.

While many of you are likely yelling "GO USA" or "GO CANADA!" I'm yelling "GO literally any elected member of congress and the rule of law, please, anyone or a single check or a solitary balance or—

If this happened overnight, we'd be in the streets "with the force of a thousand suns," but it's been a slow-motion catastrophe for many who haven't recognized or accepted its danger. And now, we'll all pay the price.

AirBnb was a good idea badly executed, so it's no hardship to say "Goodbye fascists, hello VRBO!"

Only if he was awake.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

Mrs. Columbo was always right

Anyone who doesn’t view Elon Musk as an existential threat is mistaken.

"Little Marco" has come a long way since 2017

How do these buffoons think these guys got rich in the first place?

I stopped watching MSM long ago. A growing number of quality journalists have left traditional media outlets to launch their own podcasts & Substacks, & we should all be thankful that they had the balls to untether themselves from the political biases imposed by their former networks' $BB owners.

🚨BREAKING: @democracyforward.org files emergency lawsuit to halt DOGE from taking taxpayer data at the IRS. Visit Democracy Docket for full coverage. www.democracydocket.com

Every accusation is a confession with these dopes. In this case, calling someone obviously brilliant dumb.

"Law and order" in the Trump era: if you bow down to the head of the U.S. government, he may help you - whether you're awaiting trial for sex crimes in Europe or doing time in the USA for physically assaulting police.

"Rep. Jimmy Gomez, a Democrat from CA who sits on the House Ways and Means Committee, which oversees the IRS, called the move a 'five-alarm warning...Musk has been after your personal financial info from day one. His actions are illegal and a blatant power grab...This isn’t complicated.'”

If you’re not confirmed by the Senate then you have no business meddling in the lives of MILLIONS of Americans We are suing DOGE for violating the constitution & illegally seizing power I’ll discuss tonight @ 8PM ET on @insidewithpsaki.msnbc.com 👇 statedemocracydefenders.org/fund/new-law...

The UK has a shadow cabinet - political positions within the party that isn’t in power - and so should we. Plus, we need weekly press briefings led by @petebuttigieg.bsky.social on the state of the union. Business-as-usual time is over.

Looking for brownie points and attention in all the right places....

"The attack on Reuters—and now AP—is part of a disturbing pattern to silence voices of dissent or questions of accountability. People around the world rely on their reporting, and Trump’s recent retaliation threatens how the White House is covered and what information the public receives."

"[...]wake the hell up...your country is under assault. [...they're] in your bedrooms, they're in your living rooms, they're in your businesses. They got your data...they got all your stuff. ...Musk has his tentacles in everything you're doing...and nobody seems to give a damn." -Michael Steele

@msnbc.com Your chyron is wrong. Trump didn't say he was above the law because he SERVES the country; he said it was because he SAVES the country. Don't try to whitewash him or minimize what he says. @alexwitt.bsky.social

Who the hell in their right mind would want to come here right now? I'm gonna guess the same drop in bookings is happening amongst European carriers traveling to the US.

everything is a conspiracy if, like david sacks, you are a fucking idiot

This

Correct. This is a President of the United States declaring himself a dictator. And instead of Americans understanding that we’re now under imminent threat of martial law and tyranny, we’ll get a month of think pieces about what the President of the United States meant by his UNAMBIGUOUS statement.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: “We will never, ever, ever, kiss the ring of that gangster from Mar-A-Lago." 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Trump's remark today: "He who saves his Country does not violate any Law." [One of] Trump's remarks on January 6, 2021, just prior to the attack on our Capitol: "If you don't fight, you're not going to have a country anymore." The tone is unsurprisingly similar. The end goal is the same.
