Elon and other unvetted Trump enablers shouldn't have access to the entire nation's personal and financial data. Can my Republican colleagues acknowledge that? We're forcing a vote to block that access. Let's see where they land.

Here's our new episode about nonpartisan harm, from @moviehooligan.bsky.social. youtu.be/XCJIaxY46zo?...

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has returned $21 billion to people who were cheated by big banks and credit card companies. So why are Trump and Musk gutting an agency that's returning money to people who were scammed? For them, this has never been about cutting costs.

Go ahead. Let the people see you for what you are.

Elon Musk won’t hand over his tax returns. Now, he wants yours.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

🇺🇸 New video on specialized teams designed to scour & eliminate WMD production infrastructure and aid in nuclear forensics after a nuclear/dirty bomb detonation. They were in the news for going into nuclear power plants with the Rangers and Green Berets to shut them down youtu.be/UDVZ8akLLLo

Donald Trump signed a bunch of executive orders rolling back abortion protections in the middle of the night, hoping that no one would notice. This is — and always has been — about controlling women’s bodies. I’m fighting back.

i forced Elon Musk to take down the entirety of Twitter Spaces after discovering an exploit while i was working from home

Republicans for much of 2024: "How DARE you call our candidate Mr Trump a fascist?" *President* Trump in 2025:

Even worse incompetence: they accidentally fired, then apparently today un-fired, hundreds of the people who manage America's nuclear weapons.

It's striking the extent to which there's never any justification given for any of this beyond "it's too many people" or "it's actually fake" and no apparent planning behind any of it. It's the aesthetics of "move fast and break things" without any discernible direction or purpose. It's cosplay.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are trying to cut funding for cancer and rare disease research. A federal judge temporarily blocked the cuts in some states, but this fight is not over. We can’t let them play politics with our health.

when yall see conservatives say “DEI” you can just replace it with the n-word to understand what they really mean

Two lawyers, one Yale educated, one Harvard educated; one the VP, one a senator, suggesting that decisions made by courts aren’t legitimate if they don’t like the outcome. This is dangerous territory.

Why the F does this shit keep spreading in more palatable ways There is no evidence for an Ice Age apocalypse. This is stupid. Get actual archaeologists to present archaeology, certainly not "journalists" or "explorers"

Vought is giving big banks and giant corporations the green light to scam families. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has returned over $21 billion to families cheated by Wall Street. Republicans have failed to gut it in Congress and in the courts. They will fail again.

Statement from Senator Elizabeth Warren: “Vought is giving big banks and giant corporations the green light to scam families. The CFPB has returned over $21 billion to families cheated by Wall Street. Republicans have failed to gut it in Congress and in the courts. They will fail again.”

You must understand that in the financial services industry—not only the big banks, but also the tech platforms that want to replace the big banks—there is no greater danger than a federal agency empowered to tell them, “no, you can’t steal from your customers, actually”

🚨 Today @justinpykehistory.bsky.social and I are continuing our series on Japanese AirPower. Previously we discussed fighters and bombers in isolation. Today we put it all together and chat about "The Good, The Bad, and The Fatal" of Japanese Air Ops. Join us here👉 youtu.be/4BQ-n_CYg9M

If Republicans really wanted to cut costs for families, then they wouldn’t slash the funds we use to educate and feed our kids, cut access to health care coverage, allow oil companies to pollute our air and water, and shovel even more money to defense contractors.

The government can’t use its power to prosecute and silence disfavored opinions. We sent a letter pushing back on U.S. Attorney Martin’s message to Elon Musk about legal action against those who merely criticize, challenge, or “impact” DOGE employees’ work— an alarming threat to free speech.

Beyond. Parody.

Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove says of the purge at FBI that the “only individuals who should be concerned … are those who acted with corrupt or partisan intent…” A perfect description of the actions of Trump's own DOJ leadership.

House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., said Wednesday that President Trump is making a bold move by saying the U.S. will "own" Gaza and vowed to stand with Trump on the issue.

A senior DOJ official in a memo said only agents "who acted with corrupt or partisan intent, who blatantly defied orders from Department leadership, or who exercised discretion in weaponizing the FBI" should be concerned.

When I saw the new Nosferatu, I knew I wanted to discuss the film with my friend Justin Sledge of Esoterica – and thankfully, we recorded it! Let's break down the occult symbology, Gothic themes, and cinematic nods of Robert Eggers' new horror masterpiece. youtu.be/R-VtlaQ27Nc?...

Trump’s plan to take over Gaza and turn it into the “Riviera of the Middle East” is illegal, immoral, and indefensible.

Here's our new episode about how Elon Musk, a stupid lying cheater, wants to make everyone even dumber than he already thinks they are. youtu.be/7yhMpwSYKlc?...

Hi. Elon Musk is not very good at things – running companies, managing the government's money, parenting, gaming, etc. And he thinks you're so fucking stupid that you won't even notice.

For something that's legally required, taxes can be confusing. This guide covers the latest credits and deductions — and helps you plan ahead for next year.

Voice is still gone...X HH account still locked...but , on another note,the stuff Trump is suggesting in Gaza is one of the most stupid things I've ever heard of. The blowback from this will be enormous. Americans will die because of this. This is unhinged policy making.

BREAKING: President Trump has withdrawn the U.S. from the United Nations Human Rights Council. This move will erode efforts to protect universal human rights and undermine the work of international bodies that hold all governments accountable.

LFG! Ten minutes (first time doing a YouTube premiere so I might be over-excited). Either way, share it!

“What Antisemitism? The ADL Prostrated to Musk and Trump” To defend Israel, writes ⁦‪David Klion‬⁩ from Zeteo, Jonathan Greenblatt’s Anti-Defamation League is willing to turn a blind eye to the growth of fascism on the right.

My statement on the confirmation of unrestricted fracking booster Chris Wright as head of the Department of Energy.

Things are moving fast. I’m hearing reports that Drake has been arrested, presumably for protesting the Canada tariffs. It’s unclear why he was protesting them at a high school though

the right is advocating for a shadowy cabal to run the government because they're Elon Musk's little appointed dweebs

This would be the same Darren Beattie who was fired by the Trump White House after it was revealed that he attended a white nationalist conference. (Those were the days, eh?) He was then hired by Matt Gaetz as a speechwriter, then went on to be a key creator of the "J6 was an FBI op" story.

No president has the authority to override the protections Congress has granted to people seeking safety at the border.

Elon Musk is a terrible president.
