🚨So, why are uninhabited islands tariffed?

A: The White House is even more stupid than you thought.

Tariffs have been done by internet domains, not by country!

So Heard & McDonald Islands (.hm) has a different domain to Australia (.au). So the penguins are considered a separate trading nation. 🤯

Remember Elon Musk is a ketamine addict and as Hunter S Thompson said, “You can turn your back on a person, but never turn your back on a drug, especially when its waving a razor sharp hunting knife in your eye.”

Now that 15,000 IRS employees are getting fired this week and they have been inserting code into their databases should I even bother filing my taxes this year?

so many people booing Trump, Jon Batiste singing the national anthem, Lady Gaga & Kendrick, Taylor Swift in suffragist white, NOLA, two black quarterbacks (one of which who actively talks about social justice issues and has an all women team) — Super Bowl slays this year

Elon illegally has non-governmental people accessing government computers. Journalists have identified these people.

Elon says naming them is a "crime".

Elon must be removed from government access, by force if necessary. Nobody is winning this fight with a protest sign. This is a different animal.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Exclusive | Democratic Senator Says He Will Stall Trump Nominees Until USAID Is Back
The move would require Senate Majority Leader John Thune to use precious floor time to advance the president’s nominees through the confirmation process.

Elon Musk’s staffers have gained unauthorized access to sensitive government employee data by installing a server at the OPM. They now have access to USAJOBS, the federal hiring portal where applicants submit personal details such as Social Security numbers, home addresses, and employment histories.

We need a judge to rule that a fake agency called DOGE run by a megalomaniac billionaire who bought power from Trump for $288 million does not have a legal right to cut government spending and look at our Social Security information. This is madness.

This is insane! This program saves millions of lives! What Elon wants is for millions of people to die. Someone needs to stop this breach of security!

Under the Trump administration, the U.S. agency that funds aid projects has faced layoffs, a stop action order for most aid efforts and a disruption of its website. Now Elon Musk says it should 'die.'
Why does Musk want USAID 'to die'? And why did its website disappear?

Stop going above and beyond to obey Trumps orders! Germans call this “vorauseilender Gehorsam,” or “preemptive obedience.” There is a reason they have a word for it.

While everybody was raging against Trump's shameless power grab, congress quietly introduced a nationwide abortion ban. Fuck everybody who lied and said "they're not going to do that".
