Seen here in 1950, Hugo Gernsback

Inventor of the "television glasses" and a dry battery.

Today's tech-bros aren't that original, just wealthier and more brazen.

I just noticed that USAID OIG had oversight of activities in GAZA & Ukraine. With Trump just announcing the takeover of GAZA days after USAID (and OIGs in general) gets put on ice - it puts a new spin on things...

Seems like (in addition to Musk) some people need to be pulled in front of an oversight committee. Let's start with the Financial Stability Oversight Council. They seem to be quiet at the moment.🤨

So, Musk employees have been given the personally identifying information of every federal employee?

Does this include Dod and State Dept staff?

How is this not a massive security breach?

The biggest argument the GOP made to kill DEI everywhere, is that mandating diversity will exclude the most qualified applicants.

Yet the Trump team has paraded out the least qualified individuals one can think of...and for very sensitive posts.

Yet the MAGA hordes don't see the problem...🤔

"Hitler set about destroying a constitutional republic through constitutional means."

Refusing to confirm judges. Stripping state offices of power if a Democrat wins an election...

This is how it happens.

Nate Fischer/New Founding is also looking at building communities of "like-minded" people and investors. He recently received some seed capital from Marc Andreesen.

Someone's been showing Trump history flashcards, and he wants to rename a mountain for a president known for increasing tariffs and imperialistic land grabs. 🙄

McKinley was president when phones and automobiles were just becoming household items.

Sigh.

Our former AG, Bill Barr, has been hired by Murdoch to represent the family trust - and possibly "disenfranchise" at least one of the less-conservative children's involvement in the media empire.

Hi guys! Giving this a try in hopes that it'll be more intuitive than MSTDN. I'm a grumpy git who resists new things, so I'll mostly be sitting here scowling at the screen.😅
