Trump and Musk’s attacks on clean energy projects and funding will hurt the country, and will most heavily impact jobs and manufacturing in traditionally red districts. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/10/climate/trump-clean-energy-republican-states.html
We are being led by unserious fools. Red, White and Blueland? FFS
“Investors” in trumps coin lost billions, but the trump family is making hundreds of millions in transaction fees. Our country is being run by an immoral felon grifter.
“Pro-life”
It’s a blatant coup.
Funny how they care about diversity and inclusion now….
Magamorphosis – Kristi Noem Edition
Ignoring all the other issues, we’re expected to trust “AI” to run the government when it still frequently draws extra fingers on people? And trust Musk when he frequently over-promises on products and under delivers? Where is the new Roadster? Full self driving?
Why would trump want to fire the person responsible for keeping elections secure?
Some folks are certainly in or shortly will be in the F**k around and find out part
Very specific- “Bondi is limiting criminal enforcement of a foreign agents registration law that’s been used to investigate or prosecute Trump donors and allies and disbanding a foreign election interference task force that’s identified foreign meddling in US elections, including in Trump’s favor.”
Well, f**k. I have a lot of respect for @Heathercoxrichardson – reading this reply this morning kind of took my breath
When some folks said “defund the police” the right lost their mind. Now they support president musk as he blindly defunds the FBI, the CIA, education, healthcare, foreign aid, everything…
I don’t know which idea is more troubling: Trump is either serious about genocide in Palestine and violating the Geneva convention, or this is him throwing stuff out there to distract us from musk and his minions taking over the government.
“The easy way to think about this is when you’re going and talking to your Democratic senator, you say ‘hey, imagine you are Mitch McConnell in the minority, and then do what that asshole would do.’” – Ezra
This level of insanity is just, well, f**k. Trump is promising to flatten Gaza and take an “ownership” position. I knew the world was f**cked when we voted this halfwit in, but it’s somehow 10,000 worse than I expected. And I expected horrors.
“Free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy.” Elon Musk’s first tweet when he bought twitter. Now:
Why I’m not a Democrat* reason 2,061: Dems had since November to prepare. Project 2025 gave them the opponents playbook. They didn’t do anything to prepare or prevent the dismantling of our government. Now we get some stern tweets.
In WW2 Germany put the worst death camps in Poland, out of sight for it’s own citizens.
Oddball question: my kid has been assigned to do a book report on George W. Bush. Is like one that is critical, not fawning, but appropriate for a 5th grader. Any ideas?
If someone is actively in the middle of robbing a bank, you show up and arrest them. The useless Democrats are just now threatening “lawsuits” to stop musk. They need to be showing up and arresting him and his minions. Then let the courts sort it out.
Anyone else remember when Clinton got impeached for being evasive about a bj? Trump is literally handing the purse of our country to a ketamine addicted illegal immigrant…
2025
What I don’t understand is why Congress is not fighting back? Even the dumbest, most backwards among them must realize that ceding all power to musk means they become irrelevant?
2025 gets better and better! :/ (It’s not likely to be an extinction level event, but if it hit a major population center millions would die)
This is not uplifting. It’s dystopian.
Musk and DOGE are a constitutional crisis. Every check in the government is failing.
You don’t have to be an expert in water usage in California to know that is astoundingly stupid. California gets most of it’s rain/snow in a few short months. We store it for use in the summer. Lots and lots of it is used to grow food. Food you very likely eat. This is stupid.
Most ironically prescient ad ever. From 1962. Humble Oil is now Exxon. #climatechange
Killed by United Health to save a few dollars, but there will be no manhunt for his killer. Healthcare is a right.
A glimmer of good news in bleak days. David Hogg is DNC vice-chair
