😳 Holy shit. This Vox article is from 2016. Think about that as you read:

Curtis Yarvin’s (Moldbug) “vision is corporatist,” where a nation “belongs to corporation.” When asked who shld lead it, Yarvin said, “‘It’s easy to say ‘put Elon [Musk] in charge, he’ll figure it out,’ & he might well…’” 1/

This is an annotated version of the latest cabinet meeting that was held on Trump's 100th day in office. It's Trump without Trump. You won't have to listen to his voice or see his face. I break down the entire two hours into two minutes.

Right now, Trump is trying to destroy historic clean energy investments & basic environmental protections, jeopardizing our planet and economy.

On this Earth Day, I'm committed to fighting back and standing firm to defend the progress we've made to protect the environment.

Why should these people get contracts with the US gov when they are the biggest threat?
Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale RTd this thread, which says Trump shld act fast & “Fire people who can't be fired. Force them to litigate. Mass deport people who can't be deported. Force them to litigate. Cancel 100s of billions in funding that are not lawful to cancel & force them to litigate.” 1/

"Not only does the Trump Organization have a history of hiring undocumented immigrants and passing over American applicants for foreign workers, it also has a history of using legal pathways for foreign seasonal workers like this, which he now oversees as president." An example: shorturl.at/zjTE6

Days after Trump released a raft of new seasonal work visas, his company put out a call for seasonal foreign workers.

Stumbled on a new word in an op-ed by a Trump loyalist who just left the Pentagon:

"mishegoss"
noun.
1. Madness; silliness.
2. (Yiddish) senseless behavior or chaos.

Feels likely to get worn out from over-use.
Opinion | Former Top Pentagon Spokesperson Details ‘Month From Hell’ Inside the Agency
The total chaos at the Department of Defense is becoming a major distraction for the Trump administration, writes John Ullyot.

Trump and Elon are ALREADY cutting Social Security.

When they fire thousands of staff, jam up the phone lines, and shutter offices...

When they make it nearly impossible for you to talk to a real person to get the benefits you're owed—THAT'S A BENEFIT CUT.

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense.

I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense

I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.

If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved
