SpaceX just landed a $5.92B contract with the Pentagon for Space Force rocket launches — the largest contract among the three firms who secured deals to send satellites into orbit.
While DOGE cuts essential services for you, Musk is getting a taxpayer-funded windfall.

Everything about Trump, Musk, Zuck and many super wealthy CEOs who have been front-and-center over the past turbulent decade has shredded the myth that we should trust the uber-wealthy more b/c “they don’t need the money” and are bribe proof.
They want more. Because more money brings more power.

DOGE is not a govt efficiency project. Firing 1 in 4 fed employees would cut govt spending by 1%. DOGE is a political control project. Firing and terrorizing public employees is a means to weakening state regulation & strengthening a personalist presidency donmoynihan.substack.com/p/doge-misma...

The greatest business battle EVER to be fought will come when President Elon starts trying to implement AI for federal processes.
The battle will be fought over which company’s AI will be used by the feds.
This is a zero sum battle that will create more chaos than this country has ever seen

It's heartening that today the leaders of the two major parties in Germany are unequivocally anti-Nazi and anti-fascist.
It's horrifying that today the president and vice-president of the United States of America are not.
