β€œI’m really good at this stuff. Your countries are going to hell.” To the people of the world who wonder if there are Americans who grasp how mad he is: There are. We can see it. We are working to mobilize our people to oppose him and his dangerous regime.

The AI MAGA bot network on TwiX is short-circuiting over human illogic & contradictions. Gene Roddenberry predicted and comically depicted this 58 years ago in "I, Mudd." Kirk: "Our logic is to be illogical. That is our advantage." youtu.be/YbHtzqCge_8?...

"...with the MAGA movement split over the administration’s handling of files involving deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, the accounts’ messaging has broken, offering contradictory statements on the issue and revealing the AI-fueled nature of the accounts." www.nbcnews.com/tech/interne...

Michelle and I are thinking of the entire Biden family. Nobody has done more to find breakthrough treatments for cancer in all its forms than Joe, and I am certain he will fight this challenge with his trademark resolve and grace. We pray for a fast and full recovery.

Jenner & Block, truly one of the preeminent law firms in America today, sued the Department of Justice and essentially the entire Federal Government this morning in a devastating 64-page complaint,

Classified or not is a distraction (can be declassified for cover, etc). It's high level NDI that wasn't protected & secured. How this was done, plus when, where (1 person in Moscow) & w/whom put intel, operations, nat'l security, and most importantly, lives at risk. Very DEI: Dumb/Evil/Incompetent.

Senator Mark Warner@markwarner.bsky.social

Advance strike times are sensitive and classified because they put American military directly at risk. The Secretary of Defense was blasting them out to unknown numbers over unclassified channels. It’s sloppy, careless, and dangerous. He should resign.

Trump ordered our UN Ambassador, a former Republican Congresswoman, to vote with Russia and North Korea against Ukraine. With Russia and North Korea. WT ACTUAL F, America?!!!

So we're back to pre-93, and let's just cancel the Revitalization Act and include only white men in our research and clinical trials. Ovaries be gone, all hail the prostate. Fun!

How did we all end up in the Mirror Universe? Did SpaceX open a traversible wormhole that sucked Earth over? I really hope DOGE didn't cut the funding on the multidimensional transporter b/c I really want one now. I hate this timeline!

Robert Reich@rbreich.bsky.social

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter. Everyone must choose which side they’re on. Now.

Elect a felon, get a criminal government.

BREAKING: A federal judge has determined that the Trump administration is violating his order lifting the blanket spending freeze on federal grant programs. He is orderin gthe administration to immediately unfreeze funds, including for NIH and the IRA. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Let's spell out and put on blast that Trump/Musk has stopped all monies for the 2022 INFLATION REDUCTION ACT, which is lowering prescription drug, health care, energy costs, and fair taxes. www.presidency.ucsb.edu/documents/fa...

He needs to eliminate/raise the debt ceiling for the 3/14/25 spending agreement deadline to renew/increase the sunsetting Trump tax cut for lg corps and billionaires, and thinks, as Emperor, he can slash all spending, except his MASSIVE govt contracts, to pay for it so all House Rs vote for it.

Why Is Elon Musk So Hell-Bent on Bulldozing the Government?: Silicon Valley insiders tell Vanity Fair what they think is behind the mega-billionaire’s DOGE crusade. β€œElon believes he should be emperor of the world,” one close associate says.

Please take a listen and share. This is part of @martinkerrmusic.bsky.social's (topical redo) cover of "What's Going On." Then check out this UK --> Canadian singer-songwriter's other music. Imho, he's fabulous! I can listen to his voice and messages all day. 🫢

Martin Kerr@martinkerrmusic.bsky.social

Everybody including @mcuban.bsky.social has been telling me to get over on blue sky and start posting!

The unelected cyberbaron who supports Germany's new Nazi party, has a manufacturing plant there and 2 huge plants in China, illegally accessed Treasury & OPM systems (that China tries to breach daily), has our sensitive & classified data. Worrying about TikTok as a nat'l security threat is quaint.

Asha Rangappa@asharangappa.bsky.social

Um, people need to stop and read this. Musk’s team is looking at the coding of the Treasury payment system. prospect.org/economy/2025...

Thank you so much, someone who can do something about it! Signed, Someone who can't, and is valiantly trying not to freak out. 😳

Giving access to SSNs, other data on government employees to non-employees like Musk is a violation of 5 USC 552a, and carries with it a penalty of $1000 per person whose data was accessed. We are building a case. Govt employees who want to participate should contact me directly

Keep talking about an addled old man controlled by an unelected and unhinged billionaire which works much better as a narrative and bugs Trump too.

If Dems want to regain any credibility or have any hope of winning another election: - Call for the arrest of Elon Musk (!) - Treat Trump's presidency as constitutionally illegitimate #14thNOW - Call for impeachment and any legal pathway for immediate removal - Boost peaceful mass protests ‡️

NEW: The board president of a small WV nonprofit says they haven't received their HHS funding since the Trump/Musk budget freeze. They had to lay off 3 of 5 employees on Friday. An 86-yr-old woman is counting on them to take her dialysis tomorrow. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Governors and State attorneys general must protect their citizens, whose tax, personal, and financial data is being stolen by an unelected private citizen acting illegally.

We are in such, such profound danger. They are doing the Reichstag fire to the most crucial and foundational payments layer of the Federal Government.

During our absence, please refer all calls and inquiries to your nearest North American multicultural democracy. Press 1 for Canada, oprima 2 para Mexico.

You may not like it, but Leah's right. There's a reason the Prodigal Son is a parable in almost every culture. when someone experiencing cognitive dissonance comes to you, you have two choices: embrace them, and win them over forever; or reject them, ensuring they never again question their beliefs.

So the freeze can go into effect for the 28 Republican-leaning states. πŸ€” -- "A federal judge on Friday ordered the Trump administration to keep taxpayer dollars flowing to 22 Democratic-leaning states.. The order applies only to the states that filed the lawsuit."
