Back of the envelope here, but I suspect Elon Musk has done more damage to the U.S. government and its interests than Aldrich Ames and Robert Hanssen, both of whom agreed to plead guilty to receive life sentences without the possibility of parole specifically to avoid the death penalty

I for one am thrilled we have the outstanding combo of an aging dotard and a drug addled maniac at the helm, instead of the qualified lady and nice man

If it were not for Jim Crow voter suppression tactics, Kamala Harris would have had 3.5 million more votes and would have won the presidency. Trump doesn’t have a mandate, there was no landslide — so what do we do now? Full interview with @jessicadenson07.bsky.social >>> youtu.be/UhzJfiYHXZw

Democratic leaders: I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working. Take your gloves off and punch back. Hard.

What these nihilistic vandals are doing to dismantle science & medicine—generations of expertise & public service & life improving benefits—is cultural revolution level national self harm. No foreign foe could inflict such brutal damage & senseless suffering on US so fast & effectively & unresisted.

MIKE LUCKOVICH APPRECIATION POST @mluckovich.bsky.social is one of the greatest political cartoonists of all time. Thank you for 3 decades of scathing satire, remarkable insight and helping us all laugh to avoid weeping openly. 🙏 Your longtime fan, Mar🐫

The worst people you went to high school with are now running our government. They're the people who cheated on tests, bullied the smaller kids, stole stuff from lockers and lied about other students behind their backs. They grew up, stayed awful and became MAGA.
