Protesting at the Tesla dealer by engaging in 6 hours of bad faith negotiating over a car and then leaving without signing any of the paperwork.

I don’t know how many different ways to say that agency personnel don’t work for Elon. They don’t have to report to Elon. They report to their agency leadership, which reports to the President.

Tucson Tesla Takedown today, 2/22, on Oracle Rd. This is the warmup for the big event scheduled for March 1st at 9:30. Mark your calendars and meet us there. Kudos to the crowd. 👏👏 @indivisibletucson.bsky.social

@alexwinter.com Tesla Takedown rally in Buffalo led by workers that Elon fired for unionizing!

👇Tesla takedown

Wow @niedermeyer.online Tesla Takedown reported in major German newspaper Die Zeit!

Hey, you guys! There’s Tesla Takedown in Long Beach right now!

This Tesla Takedown protest really brought the people out.

At the Long Beach Tesla Takedown, lots of folks out here (I’d estimate probably 40-50 so far) and lots of support from cars driving by. Come out and join!

Let’s be 100% clear. The postal service is literally in the Constitution, explicitly assigned as a congressional power. If Congress wants to abolish or privatize it, that’s up to Congress. The President can’t just wake up one day and do it on his own.

By accepting Trump’s anti-Black premise and regurgitating the narrative that equates anything Black as DEI, the NY Times has become part of the propaganda machine

UPDATE: Meta is continuing to censor anti-Musk ads. It has removed a Facebook ad calling for a boycott of Tesla, saying that it violates the company's policy on "unacceptable business practices" muskwatch.com/subscribe

Remember everyone, complaining online or on your couch does nothing! You live in NYC, one of the most watched places in America, where a strong push back will be seen, felt, and matter. Get up. No matter your age, if you've protested before, any of that. Come today!

This will kill people.

More info in this latest article, although to be clear what has been terminated is the IPCC Working Group 3 technical support unit and fed travel to next weeks’s meeting where the report chapter outlines are to be approved, after which authors will be solicited.

Illegally cutting cancer research and meals on wheels to pay for PR ads for themselves.

This IS America, unless America stops it. No one else will. No one else can.

Another day witnessing the collapse of everything ... At 21.043°C, the global sea-surface temperature is now ranked officially as "gobsmacking bananas." This temperature is now less than 0.13°C from being in "uncharted territory." Stay tuned for more bananas!

Very much like the Iraq War, somehow "I thought Elon Musk was a genius until a couple years ago" is now considered the more respectable and serious opinion than "I knew he was a fraud for a decade and was never fooled by him."

Costa Rica human rights ombudsman on US deportation flight yesterday: "We observed a significant number of deportees, babies in arms, children, women, elderly people, issuing calls for help, especially to be able to inform their families of their whereabouts, showing and expressing their distress."

Good to see Pete clearly laying this at the feet of all Republicans, instead of using the “extreme MAGA Republican” messaging of Jeffries, Schumer and company.

None of these actions are making us any safer

Stop fucking saying he blamed “DEI,” which is some abstract, non-tangible idea. He is blaming people of color having jobs he thinks they aren’t qualified for. He’s blaming race. He’s being racist every time he says it. Journalists need to get fucking backbones, my word.

Especially in light of recent events, my thread of truths on Russia's War in Ukraine is that much more important.

Well, Freeway Blogging is back, anyway.

I talk a lot of shit about Democrats not stepping up, so I'd be a prick if I didn't recognize and appreciate Maine's Governor Mills making the second in command look like a sniveling jabroni today.

I have only purchased 3 items from amazon since January 20, 2025. And I just cancelled 5 items I had set for subscription purchase monthly for the past 2 years. No, thank you!

Overflow angry crowd for town hall with Glenn Grothman in Oshkosh this morning ... www.wpr.org/news/glenn-g...

WYOMING: “Thank you, Madam chairman.” “I prefer ‘Mister’ chairman.” “Well you all voted preferred pronouns cannot be compelled speech.”

WATCH: “When will you stand up to them and say that is enough?” WISCONSIN Republicans Grothman & Fitzgerald run into tough town hall crowds also 👇🏽👀

Thinking again about Indivisible Brooklyn giving the excuse that they hadnt targeted Malliotakis for protests bc she wouldnt care if they did. It should be obvious now that GOP reps do in fact very much care about whether or not they get targeted for pushback & are likely to be easily rattled by it.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Make them (him) see and hear you, NYC.

I know everyone is upset about single family homes being bought by investors and rented out, but I can’t get that mad about it because they give families who don’t have a $100,000+ down payment or cannot qualify for a mortgage the opportunity to live in single family neighborhoods with good schools.

#TeslaTakedown Tesla stock is plummeting today

Keep it going! Huge numbers don't matter, getting out into the street and being heard matters and we're being heard around the world! Join at TeslaTakedown.com #TeslaTakedown

Important to stop phrasing & headlining things as "Trump does XXX" (e.g. "Trump fires all USPS heads and integrates it under Commerce"); we can simply say he is purporting to do XXX, or claiming the power to do XXX. Mere fact of a president saying he did something doesn't will it into existence.

A notorious shitposter dropping a quarter billion dollars to buy elections in America was the inevitable result of Citizens United. #inners

Go to town hall meetings. When they get a reception like this, it absolutely scares the hell out of them.

NEW: Apple said it "can no longer" offer iCloud end-to-end encryption in the UK, and turned off the option to enable it for new users in the country. The unprecedented move comes after the British government demanded a backdoor into Apple's cloud service. techcrunch.com/2025/02/21/a...
