Musk is out of control. Holman is proudly violating the Constitution daily. Senior leadership is having a secret group chat on Signal and cheering about bombing people. Trump knows nothing. Let me repeat - Trump knows nothing.

According to MAGA, if you hit a car with a baseball bat because you don’t like the company’s owner you’re a “terrorist”, but if you hit a Capitol police officer with a baseball bat because you don’t like the results of an election, you’re a “patriot.”
Do I have that just about right?

Musk and Trump’s Cuts Could Cost Millions of Lives
Bill Gates warns that slashing USAID funding and gutting PEPFAR—which saved 26M lives from HIV/AIDS—puts millions at risk. Musk admitted, “We went overboard,” but the damage is done. Cutting aid for 1.6% of the budget isn’t cost-cutting—it’s cruel.
