What's good for the goose...

Let this sink in.

Two market meltdowns. One common denominator.

I'm old enough to remember when Americans weren't terrified of flying airplanes due to preventable collisions. That was 2024 when Trump wasn't President and Musk wasn't running the show.

Currently appearing at UK bus-stops. More of this pointed ridicule, please.

Seems legit.... We don't want to be a nation of underachieving Americans.

They keep showing us exactly who they are.

Elon Musk is cratering in polls: WaPo: Only 34% approve of Musk's role, 63% worry about his data access CNN: 54% say it's bad Musk was given a big role Majorities disapprove of Trump in CNN, WaPo, Gallup. On the pod, @juliaazari.bsky.social is great on all this: newrepublic.com/article/1917...

Facts....

“Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!”

Accurate.

If you’ve already started calling it the Gulf of America instead of the Gulf of Mexico, you should have no trouble with someone’s preferred name and pronouns.

NEW -- Elon Musk claimed to know the net worths of federal employees during an Oval Office visit yesterday. Not salaries. Net worths. Now how exactly did he get his hands on that information? The White House won't say. www.huffpost.com/entry/musk-t...

It's day 22 and he still doesn't have a plan to lower your prices.

it looks like OPM is trying to use the return to office policy as an excuse to bypass the normal RIF process for federal employees. My wife is being told all remote workers have to report to one of 9 locations nationwide. Of course, no one knows where these locations are. Any legal recourse?

I love this. This should be the symbol of the new rebel coalition.

Black excellence: Twice as qualified, half as respected, and still passed over or labeled as a ‘DEI hire.’ Black folks have always known this because we’ve seen it happen to our own family members. I know I have.

The real scam: making you fear the “the other” while the rich rob you blind. I wish every American understood this.

Whew

If he didn't have his head so far up his ass, DJT might have realized that most of what Trudeau agreed to yesterday, Canada had announced in a $1.3 billion plan back in December 2024. 🙄 #Canada did not back down; the Musk-Trump regime did. But yeah... you're a "tremendous" negotiator Donald. 😏

if I understand American politics correctly, progressivism is something that requires 60 senate votes to work, while national conservatism doesn’t require any votes at all

These are the clowns Congress refuses to stop.

If it were legal to fire you, they wouldn't put so much effort into getting you to resign voluntarily.

If you work at any news outlet, it is your patriotic obligation to go scream at your bosses until they're as freaked out as they should be. Musk is literally seizing control of the federal government - the payment systems, all the data, the employment systems.

NEW: Elon Musk's friends have infiltrated the GSA and they're looking for ways to use White House credentials to access agency tech, potentially allowing them to remote into laptops, read emails, and more, sources say. w/ @zoeschiffer.bsky.social www.wired.com/story/elon-m...
