Following Trump's purge of its pro-worker leadership, the NLRB has reportedly dropped its opposition to a SpaceX lawsuit arguing the agency itself is unconstitutional. The richest man in the world is getting a solid return on his $290M investment in Trump.

Note the departments they want to cut. And ask Voldemoron if the cuts they're making will come anywhere near the $2TRILLION they want to give away to billionaires.

This is so simultaneously heartbreaking and enraging that I can’t even think of what to say. They don’t want women to exist except to serve them

Having covered Tesla when it first started I can say unequivocally that company would never have existed without government subsidies. NPR on the other hand gets 98-99% of its revenue from non-governmental sources. But go off, Goebbels.

You know how you get a warning for dangerous weather events on your phone for free, and can check weather forecasts for free? Wouldn’t it be better if that was a $15 a month subscription service?

Is it wrong that I want our elected officials to at least show up to votes the way I show up to court statuses

ICE went to the home of a 61-year-old man with poor health and after his family informed ICE agents that they needed a warrant signed by a judge, dozens of ICE agents instead showed up in an armored vehicle with a battering ram and flash grenades and took him by force.

I tried to boot my Facebook account back up bc connecting with folks who are by default less engaged in politics is important, and I'm losing my sense of where regular folks are at... But I'm locked out - the 2fa code isn't being sent despite trying several times. So that's... interesting...

Segregationists gonna segregation. Sigh. They are furious that Black enrollment is up to 5% from 4% (CA is 6% Black; the US is around 13% Black). www.nytimes.com/2025/02/03/u...

New and important: we built a federal expenditure tracker. All expenditure line items that are available on the Daily Treasury Statement. USAID was zeroed out on 1/28 and has been at zero ever since. www.hamiltonproject.org/data/trackin... #EconSky

Approximately 20 members of Elon Musk’s staff have begun working within the Education Department. They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.

FACT CHECK: Canada has already announced this plan BEFORE Trump announced his tariffs.

What I love about this picture isn’t that this person is a hero, it’s that he’s nobody. Not a celebrity. Not a politician. Nobody that history will record or mark. Just a dude of conscience standing up. That should be the message: we are millions of nobodies, we will rise up, and that’s unstoppable.

i love that in addition to everything else, elon musk is the dumbest asshole on the planet

I spend a lot of time thinking about how actual lead poisoning, an actual neurodevelopmental disability actually caused by environmental toxins, did not come up a single time in either of RFK Jr's Senate hearings

Marco Rubio's new acting undersecretary of state for public diplomacy, ladies and gentlemen.

Nearly 250,000 people in Berlin showed up to protest fascism and the Musk backed AfD party.

What’s his beef against USAID in particu….oh. Wow.

Elon Musk wanting to dismantle the #USAID is starting to make sense. Just pure unmitigated revenge by “Apartheid Clyde.”

These stupid mother fuckers are going to close hundreds of nursing homes, homeless shelters, abuse shelters, and transitional housing for hundreds of thousands of Americans including veterans, seniors, women, and children. These fucking monsters. Flynn is such a piece of shit.

When people say "what do you expect Senate Democrats to do when Republicans control the Senate": 1) Deny a Quorum 2) Block Unanimous Consent 3) Max Out Debate Time 4) Delay and Disrupt 5) Blanket Opposition: Democrats cannot continue to vote for Trump’s other nominees 6) No business as usual
