This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!

Found out that TWENTY emails is considered a lot to politicians on an issue. TWENTY. As in, they call that getting slammed. So next time you see a request to email your rep, or call, keep that in mind. TWENTY is a lot.

Billionaire board members feeling peer pressure to take drugs with Elon because if they don't they think Musk will be angry and cut them out of his companies and life. The world is so stupid.

@nbcbayarea.com is there a reason you're not covering the protest that's supposed to be happening at Alex Padilla's SF offices today? Not scared to cover the will of the people, I hope.

If you need some hope, this was the first I had felt in a while: youtu.be/K8QLgLfqh6s?... They are not operating from a position of power. They're operating from a position of weakness.

Call them want they really are: HACKERS This "DOGE engineers" thing is bullshit! They are boy hackers! Plain and simple This is 2016 Cambridge Analytics bullshit on steroids

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

An unelected shadow government is conducting a hostile takeover of the federal government. DOGE is not a real government agency. DOGE has no authority to make spending decisions. DOGE has no authority to shut programs down or to ignore federal law. DOGE’s conduct cannot be allowed to stand.

This is a hostile takeover of the federal government by a private citizen of unlimited means with no restrictions and no transparency. Welcome to the Deep State www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...

If your article about "best event engagement strategies" includes the groundbreaking idea "speaker Q&A sessions" I am going to stop taking your content seriously.

@evgostock.bsky.social what is the point of your chargers if literally none of them ever work?

Don’t let anyone tell you this guy is popular or that the country is trending his way. Just isn’t true. Never was.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

When democrats are in office, republicans warn "careful, they might tell people you've been behaving badly!" When republicans are in office, democrats warn "careful, they may knock down your door and abduct you!" Spot the difference.

The Trump Chaos Cuts are threatening the safety and well being of Americans everywhere—from our children and elderly, to police and veterans. The administration needs to provide answers now.

I'm pretty positive AI-written journalism is bad for the world and a dead end, but if you're going to insist on doing it, for goodness sake please hire an editor.

As the person who started the Transparency Engineering team at Google over TEN years ago I want to be absolutely clear that Phony Stark is full of shit.

Oh yeah, stoned teenagers are definitely not going to mess with this.
