Well, isn’t that convenient? Musk gets named to the fake department of DOGE, and suddenly NASA’s future is up for debate—just as SpaceX is poised to cash in. Funny how “efficiency” seems to mean redirecting public funds straight into private pockets.

Republicans want to tell you what books you can read, what bathroom you can use, what words you can say, what history you can learn, what you can or can’t do with your own body and what gender you are… but tell me more about how the Dems are “coming for your freedoms”.
Idiots.
Idiots.

The full low-down on RFK Jr.’s connection to a deadly measles outbreak in Samoa and, just as important, how he lied about it. That’s key. Kennedy is an inveterate liar. He makes up facts & plots, and he lies about what he himself has said. Another con man.

How RFK Jr. Falsely Denied His Connection to a Deadly Measles Outbreak in Samoa
He also championed a Samoan anti-vaxxer tied to the 2019 lethal eruption that killed scores of children.

Of Samoa’s population of 200,000, more than 5,700 were infected and 83 died. RFJ Jr called it "mild".

When Speaker Johnson says that the House Ethics Committee can’t release their report on Gaetz after he resigned because it would set a “bad precedent”, he’s gaslighting you. It’s been done before.

You don't have a moral obligation to spend your time on the hellscape but you are ceding it to fascism.
The issue with continuing to use it is that Musk can cut us off at will now and did so from summer all the way through election day. We are fighting a rigged game and there are no easy solutions
