Of course, when I'm without my camera and long lens, I come across about 30 Cedar Waxwings in a few trees, within feet of me.๐Ÿ˜‘

Protests erupt as Elon Musk moves to gut government agencies
YouTube video by PBS NewsHour Protests erupt as Elon Musk moves to gut government agencies

The end goal is government dismantling, replaced by privatized companies, and installing a CEO-style monarch. The oligarchs need to be stopped.

Get fucked. You decide you aren't running anymore and are now happy to give trump whatever he wants. Fuckin ashamed to have you as one of my senators. You might as well have just given John James your seat last election.
My only hope is someone with a spine runs for your seat in 2026.

Good news then, he probably won't actually do shit.

While I am unfairly judging this guy's flag pin, I'm going to go out on a limb and say he probably voted for this.

Ego. All these people talking about him being there to fight the fight are delusional. It's his ego that won't let him walk away, and stay away permanently.

In live reporting make them HEAR the words!

I feel it is extremely important that anyone pushing back on this should be sure to say it fully do not abbreviate it. Say it plainly, ie "the trump administration moves to end diversity, equity, and inclusion". ESPECIALLY in journalism. Never print the acronym. Make people read the words!

In the coming days, there will probably be corrections, but the damage is done. New conspiracy for the idiots.

They dont exist. It's a COBOL coding byproduct, from missing dates defaulting to 1875 that this "tech wiz" is too stupid to know about. Muskc is also too arrogant to verify claims like this to make sure he reports factual information.

"Dei is dead" is also telling phrase that makes me think this is some Musk flunky making these tweets and not someone that regularly makes official communications for a government body.

Retire and let someone in touch with reality take over.

Do you think egg prices will matter if we lose our democracy?! We are watching the pillars of our government/separation of powers erode away. And this is his messaging? Nah, that is insane to focus on to me.

They have no plan of attack, so they just keep on about egg prices, and ignore the real issues facing our democracy while keeping their hand out for fundraising.
Every last one of these out of touch dinosaurs need to be primaried.

Musk calling people that utilize/rely on the programs he is gutting "parasites" is also out of the GOP playbook of accusing the opposition of what you are actually guilty of.

Business as usual for the grifters running our country. It's all waste and fraud, unless it benefits them. Right out of Trump's playbook of, "all bad things are someone else's fault, all good things are because of me"

Yeah, I don't feel many of them in the house or senate are really compromised by foreign interests at all (the cabinet is another story). They are all just selfish and spineless; I really believe it is that simple.

Is anyone really surprised? They won't push the confirmation hearing of anyone they dont already know has the votes. All of the confirmations are just formalities. If trump says he wants it, they will make sure it happens. The GOP is too spineless to go against him.

Am I misremembering things, or didn't allies already withhold intelligence during his last administration?

It's the latter for me. I will never understand defending some billionaire to your deathbed when their actions are making your life worse.
