This whole attack on government feels to me like a rummikub game were you look at the board, think you’ve got the perfect strategic moves to win so you start moving all the tiles around, fuck up the board and only then realize - the very end - that it’s not gonna work and you’ve ruined the game.

And for this reason alone, the Democrats should rally around, shutting down government entirely until there’s transparency.
What the actual *?! The White House has designated Mr. Musk’s office, the United States DOGE Service, as an entity protected from public records requests and most judicial intervention until at least 2034, by classifying its documents as presidential records.

I just wanna make sure I have this right, the dude that railed for years about “her emails” being sent from an insecure server being treason is perfectly OK with mass emails to the whole federal government workforce that are sent from an insecure server?

Everyone needs to read this. This is how we’re viewed on the world stage right now. This is not a drill.
Having watched with growing alarm the developments of the last 24 and 36 hours in Washington, I thought I’d take a stab at how the US media would cover this story if it was happening in a foreign country. Here’s that story that should be written this weekend: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-s-jun...

So Congress kept adding flights in and out of Reagan Airport to make it easier for Congresspeople despite the FAA warning against it, resulting in 25M passengers going through the airport v the 15M it was built for, plus the military helicopter was off course & too high, & he is still blaming DEI?🤬

This is the purge Trump talked about. Pulling essential services will most certainly cost lives. That’s the point.
HOLY HELL! Medicaid portals are down in all 50 states following last night's federal funding freeze —per Sen Wyden’s office

Every utterance is a confession.
Trump on Elon Musk: "He knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide."
