Elon Musk will sit for a deposition regarding DOGE’s gutting of USAID. Multiple reports estimate that his dismantling of the foreign aid agency directly contributed to thousands of deaths around the world. And that’s just one piece of damage DOGE left behind. Watch.

Even as senior Trump officials cut vital foreign aid programs — in one case celebrating with cake afterward — they had been repeatedly warned that people would die. Join ProPublica journalists for a conversation about the dismantling of USAID. 📌 RSVP and submit a question:

The Institute of Museum and Library Services’ grant application process has taken a political turn under Trump. “It’s clear the administration wants a whitewashed story,” said a Republican who led the agency from 2019 to 2024. “And that’s wrong.”

This is the backlash effect. Repression and overt cruelty backfire when decent people refuse to accept Stephen Miller's monstrous Nazi vision for this country.

Speaking of sourcing... this from Google AI:

A mere 19 months ago, Trump’s net worth was $2.6B, and he owed hundreds of millions in civil penalties. Today, Trump is worth $7.1B, and most of the civil penalties have been tossed out. Presidential politics is by far the most lucrative business venture of Trump’s career. trib.al/BZC3lZB

More little street libraries needed!

In the spring, the Trump administration abruptly cut $500 million from an emergency food assistance program that delivered meat, dairy, eggs and produce to food banks across the country. Thousands of planned deliveries were canceled without warning.

Meet the Press put together a clip of Trump vowing in January to "bring back free speech to America," followed by him saying last Friday that negative coverage of him is "no longer free speech"

President Johnson, in a November 9, 1968 letter to the Smothers Brothers: “It is part of the price of leadership of this great and free nation to be the target of clever satirists . . . May we never grow so somber or self-important that we fail to appreciate the humor in our lives.”

FUN WITH AI: Let's play "Whose arm is it?" What's fun is that this stock image service wants $10 for this one!

With MAGA Republicans continuing their ghoulish campaigns to terrorize communities, crush dissent, and tear families apart, it’s more important than ever that we stand up, speak out, and make some good trouble. Join us on Thursday: goodtroubleliveson.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

We’re training a million Americans to lead a local resistance movement. This is how we dramatically ramp up defiance and non-cooperation tactics society-wide, whether it be at corporations, education, the media or neighborhoods. One Million Rising launches in three days and we hope you will join us.

MechaHitler isn’t a flaw—it’s a feature. Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Sam Altman and other techno-fascist billionaires subscribe to a neo-Nazi ideology, believing they’re meant to rule us. The endgame of Big Tech’s social media and AI is totalitarianism—surveillance, wealth, control.

"AI will not replace us, it will control us. Unless we program human oversight into it's internal biasis it will replace our financial religious and judicial beliefs," a WIRED reader said in response to this article. What do you think?

My first @wired.com piece: I asked over a dozen of the US's largest health insurers whether they would continue to cover currently routine shots for children if the RFK Jr. appointees on the federal vaccine panel were to stop recommending them. Only one said yes: www.wired.com/story/insure...

Elon Musk is attempting to manifest his "America Party" into reality. Hard-launching the party, which he first posted about through a poll on X, would involve filing official paperwork, such as FEC forms, and signing up to petition in individual states. He has not done any of that.

This was just posted by @tbretc.bsky.social on another platform. The Chicago Sun-Times obviously gets ChatGPT to write a ‘summer reads’ feature almost entirely made up of real authors but completely fake books. What are we coming to?

My statement on the charges filed against me:

DOGE initially promised to save taxpayers $2 trillion. Now it admits it's only delivered $160B in cuts. And even those minimal savings are nearly wiped out by the cost of implementing DOGE's cuts: $135B. We're losing vital government services (that are efficient!) for basically nothing in return.

Demonstrations against Trump are getting larger and louder. This is absolutely essential. But Trump’s regressive populism — cruel, tyrannical, bigoted, authoritarian — must be met by a bold progressive populism that strengthens democracy and shares the wealth.
