As if the richest unhinged asshole on the planet could possibly represent the 80% 😂
Is it time to create a new political party in America that actually represents the 80% in the middle?

Sheryl Crow says she has sold her Tesla and donated the proceeds to NPR. “My parents always said... you are who you hang out with. There comes a time when you have to decide who you are willing to align with. So long Tesla. Money donated to NPR, which is under threat by President Musk, in hopes that the truth will continue to find its way to those willing to know the truth.”

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

A 53 year old man, with German ancestry, from apartheid South Africa, who hangs around racists, who does research for a living, who graduated from college, and has unfathomable wealth does not "accidentally" make a gesture like that.

Yeah you're not going to gaslight us out of this one- that's a fucking Nazi salute.
They’re calling this a Roman salute even though there’s no proof it ever existed in Rome and also the Nazis based their salute off of it. There’s no way around what happened here

And the Trump presidency begins with the richest person in the world giving a Nazi salute.

I have never once, in my 45 years of living, been harassed in a bathroom by a trans female. However, I have been harassed by a man walking down the street minding my own business many, many, many, many times. Gender neutral bathrooms aren't the problem.

Interesting timing, isn’t it? Musk’s “Department of Government Efficiency” rolls out a plan, and suddenly NASA’s future is on the chopping block—right as SpaceX stands to gain. This isn’t about efficiency; it’s about funneling public resources into private pockets.

Of course he is. Why let a trusted institution uncover skeletons when you can hire your own spin doctors to sweep them under the rug? This is corruption 101.

The FBI should vet them anyway .. and make public whatever they find. Trump doesn't own them yet.

Per CNN: Trump refuses to have FBI vet his nominees. He has chosen instead to hire private investigators. This is bad. 😳

Okay yes a second Trump presidency is terrifying but based on these Trump picks, I think there's a decent chance that stupidity gets in the way of the fascism. I think that's our hope: crippling idiocy.

I'm just not so sure the presidency and the position of attorney general were meant to be safe havens for people trying to avoid prison time

Hey Trump voter dads, you didn’t need to protect your daughters from drag queens, boys in sports, and furry groomers, you needed to protect them from rapists like Donald Trump and Matt Gaetz. And guess what — you fucking failed.
