NEW WIRED led the way in reporting on Elon Musk's efforts to dismantle the US government. My colleagues and I spoke to 100s of employees at dozens of agencies to understand what happened. This is the definitive story of DOGE as told by those who experienced it www.wired.com/story/oral-h...

Some apps take 0% of my phone’s battery and some apps take like 3% per minute and honestly I am the same way

Tom Homan said he was recused from anything to do with government contracts. Turns out he wasn't. He played a role in the process to move immigration detention contracts through the Defense Department www.bloomberg.com/news/feature... With @racheladhe.bsky.social and @sooophie.bsky.social

“Gun violence is bad!” says man who pardoned convicted murderer

Details around this seemed off from the get go, and weeks dragging by without clarification only made this whole narrative more suspect, so this is hardly a surprise.

The Chinese social credit system is constantly invoked as some unspeakable red line that must never be crossed, yet here is Larry Ellison, perhaps soon to be one of the most influential people in charge of TikTok—which, like other social-media apps, could be used as a digital-surveillance tool

lmao "expected to be indicted" brought to you by the same clowncar DOJ that couldn't secure indictment against The Sando Thrower

You'd be hard-pressed to find an elected Dem who calls MAGA Nazis but saying that Democrats are in favor of killing babies has been entirely mainstream in the GOP for at least a couple of decades.

Unless they’re in a boat? Unless they are driving their kids to school? Unless you’ve deported or extrajudicially rendered them to a place they’ve told you/the State Department has told you they will be assassinated?

We don’t call everyone who disagrees with us a Nazi, JD, just the ones doing Nazi shit like: -masked secret police kidnapping people off the street -creating concentration camps -attempting to eradicate trans people -banning/burning LGBTQ/opposing viewpoint books -murdering fishermen in open waters

Let me help you out JD

well yeah as the former employee he better not touch it, thats the job of the guy who replaced him

BREAKING: Judge overseeing DOJ's prosecution of Luigi Mangione orders DOJ to explain by Oct. 3, via sworn declaration, why prejudicial statements continued to be made about him by DOJ officials, contrary to rule/order. Judge Garnett warns that sanctions could follow if there are future violations.

This is the perfect encapsulation of Trumpism -- because of its obsession with imagery, the White House crew caused a problem but blamed it on other people, leading to MAGA making threats against the United Nations for their own screw up

"Trump's Argentina bailout" just start saying that over and over again. Something goes wrong in the economy? What did you expect? Trump spent all our money bailing out Argentina

what has become terrifyingly evident "we" are not having the same existential experience to construct this type of argument as the government behaves like the cosa nostra threatening to pull the broadcast licenses of people who say things they don't like... is irresponsible

DOGE was a failure because its entire premise was flawed, and, on top of that, the people who ran and implemented it were both arrogant and ignorant.

many of you are working overtime to validate the humanity of people who are intentionally, systemically, and methodologically working to invalidate your humanity

The Atlantic: "There was an assumption that Trump was an aberration and that the next president would come back and reset the clock...That’s no longer the case." www.theatlantic.com/national-sec...

the lesson of the kimmel thing is that a corporation that previously caved to trump was forced by its audience to defy him. they're afraid of him but they're more afraid of you.

Also worth clarifying: no ICE agents were injured and were not even targets. Do not let them spin this.

#JimmyKimmelLive For Jimmy Kimmel, the last artist who got banned, but also won and returned 2 Live Crew's "Banned in the USA"- their music was banned and if anyone sold their album they would get arrested. They took it to court and won. www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNsd...

Most Sinclair & Nexstar stations did not address the Jimmy Kimmel Live issue at all, but a few did. Here's Nexstar station WTEN in Albany:

You kick Eyeball Gal? You kick Eyeball Gal like the football!? Jail for Humans! jail for One Thousand Years!

I've said this before, but I feel pretty strongly that the building of concentration camps - and now, the inevitable disappearance of 1,800 people from those camps - is the biggest story in American public health right now that isn't being treated like one

"The United States is less democratic, less self-governing, more dysfunctional, and more corrupt than it was 20 years ago, thanks in large part to the Supreme Court’s rulings."
