The heartbreaking statement from Jonathan Joss’s husband about his death.

We finally picked some lemons from the tree in our front yard and… yikes!

For Mother’s Day this year, I’m giving my wife time on an airplane. Literally, she’s going to spend 100% of the day (with me) on an airplane. #winning?

If Trump is serious about tariffs on movies, it's a very dangerous escalation. Tariffs have not traditionally been applied to services, and the United States is a massive net exporter of services. We would be extremely vulnerable to any service-based retaliation.

Biggest mistakes I'm seeing in early reporting (thread): 1. Tariffmageddon isn't over: Lotsa tariffs to account for, but the average tariff rate is only down around one quarter. So most of the pain of Liberation Day is still with us.

Tahoe convenience store: * milk options * wine options Just a little different! 😂😂😂

The Donald J. Trump Stock Market Crash™

The word "decimate" comes from the event where a tenth of soldiers in a unit were killed. Well, in two days Trump *decimated* America's economy with his tariffs. (This last happened because of COVID, and the 2008 financial crisis. It's NEVER been self-inflicted, until now.)

Right-wing YouTuber Tim Pool has made it to the White House pool — someone from his “Timcast” channel will be part of today’s pool duty covering the president. Last year, DOJ revealed Pool was receiving millions of dollars from the Russian gov. Pool says he didn’t know where it was coming from.

y’all are wild

Dictator shit

Killing off our research facilities and talent pipelines is perhaps the biggest, dumbest self-own in American history.

I... don't think I've ever seen anything quite like this. I mean.. how do you... what the... how is this... what the fuck?

I like paying taxes just as much as anyone (not very much). But this is DUMB! I screwed up last year & had to file an amended return. I’m expecting a decent check back. It’s been 10+ months and I still haven’t gotten it! If this cut goes through, I’ll *never* see my money back!

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

Ready Fire Aim is a lousy way to govern.

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns. 100% of his salary is paid by WA state. Elon fired him. Share his story.

They're a party of internet trolls with no vision or original ideas to improve people's lives. Everything they say is outrage porn designed to distract you from the fact that they have no plan to lower grocery prices or make housing more affordable.

#F1 has clearly put a ton of 💰💰💰 & effort behind this team livery reveal event!

Trump is helping an accused human trafficker, a rapist, and a man who formed an organized crime group to exploit young women. I’ll say it again: This is the most corrupt administration in American history.

This is the dumbest timeline. Trump fired a bunch of people that oversee our nukes because he had no idea what they did, so he had to hire them back. More proof this is a hatchet job www.cnn.com/2025/02/14/c...

heard this from a few park ranger friends all over the country. Elon Musk fucking up the NPS is starting to bite www.sfgate.com/california-p...

Interesting: the State Department’s procurement forecast detailing a $400 million order for "armored Tesla" has now been edited to "armored electric vehicles." The document shows the edit was made tonight at 9:12 p.m. -- after it was highlighted in reports

This says it all

Gasoline prices are up $0.50 per gallon since Trump was inaugurated.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

I've got to say, the guy who accidentally became the Director of the FBI does 100% look like the guy who accidentally becomes the Director of the FBI in a mid-2000s comedy about a guy who accidentally becomes the Director of the FBI

Here's the thing: there are THOUSANDS of military veterans that have acted with courage - often in war - and that are desperate for opportunities like this. That a16z picks this guy because he killed a homeless person on a train? Disgusting. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/05/t...

HOLY F**KING S**T! This is **INSANELY** risky!

Fourteen hours before the crash. 👇

i just cannot get over how much the administration’s response to the crash shows a profound disrespect for the lives of the people they are supposed to serve

Assuming we make it through the next couple of decades, this will be an incredible image for future historians/students of the Trump era

If Joe Biden fired 100 FAA employees and a plane crash happened just a few hours later, Fox News would bring Lou Dobbs back from the dead with wall-to-wall coverage blaming it on Biden.

this guy just loves to mouth off about things he knows nothing about

Meanings of “that went well” 1. That went as well as I hoped 2. That went slightly better than expected 3. It went pretty badly but it’s fine 4. I didn’t really notice how it went 5. Couldn’t have gone worse really 6. No one died

I’m careful not to get too excited about special election shifts, but D+21 and D+15 swings are significant movements. We should be casting wide nets for House and Senate seats in 2026. Recruit strong candidates everywhere. If we’re going to create a blue wave, it starts with quality recruitment now.

Don’t let anyone tell you this guy is popular or that the country is trending his way. Just isn’t true. Never was.

I tweeted this eight years ago as many Silicon Valley leaders openly protested Donald Trump's ban of people from Muslim-majority countries. Some of these same leaders celebrated Trump at his recent inauguration.

I saw this quote from a speech Pete Buttigieg gave this month, and it’s been in my head all damn day: “Wouldn’t you rather it be you?” What a clarifying, inspiring call to action. Well said. 👏

I bought new running shoes. Can… can you tell?

Guy tried to overthrow the government, committed a bunch of crimes, we didn’t do anything about it, he became president again, and suddenly everyone is shocked how he’s just flagrantly tearing down our basic institutions? He literally tried to overthrow the government!

Speaking of healthcare. Let's make @bsky.app the platform that fights misinformation. Some great follows are @drsusanoliver.bsky.social @jsm2334.bsky.social @therealtruther.bsky.social Let's get them more followers and engagement than other platforms and let health science accounts find a home

Lloyd Austin was confirmed 93–2. Mark Esper was confirmed 90–8. James Mattis was confirmed 98–1. Ashton Carter was confirmed 93–5. Leon Panetta was confirmed 100–0. Robert Gates was confirmed 95–2. Pete Hegseth will likely be confirmed at 50-50. Most unqualified nominee in American history.
