Elon Musk is NOT an African-American! When he is referred to as such it is insulting to those of us who ARE African-American. Nationality and ethnicity are two entirely different things. Elon is of British descent. His nationality is/was South African.

Are We Now the Bad Guys?
There was a time, not too long ago, when America stood as the beacon of freedom, the defender of democracy, and the steadfast ally of those who resisted oppression.

“Nice people made the best Nazis...
They got along, refused to make waves, looked the other way when things got ugly and focused on happier things than “politics.”
They were lovely people who turned their heads as their neighbors were dragged away.
You know who weren’t nice people?
Resisters.”

Congressman Jeffries: If you are currently “struggling” to protect us from Trump’s illegal activities, then step aside and let someone else do the job. Because we’re in desperate need of FIGHTERS who can take this battle to the doorsteps of Trump and MAGA. Change the passive voice! Get aggressive!

I would think that the prestigious Wharton School of business at University of Pennsylvania (where Donald Trump supposedly attended) would have taught its students the importance of conducting a Cost-Benefit analysis BEFORE firing key personnel. Especially FAA employees!

Hundreds of FAA staff fired by Trump administration, union says
The firings are part of a cost-cutting drive by the Trump administration, that aims to drastically cut the federal workforce.

No, Donald. A leader who does not violate the law saves his Country.

And he qualifies as a DEI hire too. Thanks, President Biden, for not being an orange idiot.

Heartbreaking news… Tonight, many of our friends were let go, and tomorrow, even more will follow. Word is that all probationary employees at NPS will be let go. 😭

"If Trump is denying access to outlets that refuse to lick his boots, then any media outlet that has access is compromised. Journalists who want to be worthy of the name have a moral obligation to follow the AP’s example in enraging the toddler in chief."
The AP provides a model of effective press resistance
Credibility is more important than access.

I hate what Trump has done to my neighborhood! He doesn't care. He's never been here to witness the abuelas waiting at the school bus stop to gather their grandchildren in the afternoon. He's never seen a loving father's tears and pride to see his daughter enter the room at her quinceanera. . . .

These comb-overs are obviously not working. So I wonder if he will start teasing the little bit of hair he still has, in order to give the impression that he actually has a lot of hair on his head.

I wish that Trump was as concerned about preventing the next school shooter (usually a white male) from getting unfettered access to high capacity firearms, as he is about making sure that only white males can get hired to be air traffic controllers and pilots.

Leavitt: “When you’re flying on a plane with your loved ones, are you praying that your plane lands safely and get you to your destination? Or do you pray that the pilot has a certain skin color? I think we all know the answer to that question. As President Trump said, ‘It’s common sense’”

Clearly Biden must not have put the DEI FAA in until the end of his term. Or maybe the DEI pilots actually have unmatched skill but chose to crash to make Trump look bad.
It would be ridiculous if it was just another "Trump disbanding the pandemic preparedness office right before a pandemic" thing

Weird, then, how during the Biden Administration with Buttigieg in charge of transportation, there were zero major airline crashes. None. And within 9 days of Trump messing with the DOT and FAA and air traffic controllers, 67 people die.
Why do I draw the correlation?
I have common sense. Okay?
