The new cover of TIME.
An important historical note — that USAID helped end Apartheid — sheds new light on Elon’s relentless and soulless attack on USAID. During Apartheid, Black South Africans were robbed of human rights and political power. 1/2 www.thealtmedia.com/p/musks-sout...
NEWS: Donald Trump just suffered a major loss in court, the international community is rebuking his plan to forcibly take ownership of the Gaza Strip, and USPS issues a major backtrack. open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...
Thou shalt impeach the motherfucker.
Think firing the entire federal workforce will save America money?
Federal civilian employees account for just 4% of the federal budget. Even if someone like Musk—or any president—fired all of us, it wouldn’t make much of a dent in government spending. Don’t fall for it.
@raskin.house.gov: "This is a coup, which is a seizure of state power by unelected actors... In addition to everything that Trump is doing to dismantle every part of gov’t that doesn't profit him personally, we have this additional problem of Elon Musk trying to consolidate state power under him."
It’s Day 16.
Our country is being dismantled 24/7.
If “…just 53 days.” applies to us, like it did in 1933 Germany, that means March 13, 2025, could be the last day of our country, as we know it to be.
Tick tock, tick tock…

Wyden: "Tell Elon Musk to take his hands off your money!"
Chris Murphy: "We have days to stop the destruction of our democracy ... we are taking back this country from Elon Musk."

Dear Democratic Leaders: here’s a free idea, send members of congress into the buildings where Elons people are and see what they’re doing. Dare them to stop you.
Do something
Approximately 20 members of Elon Musk’s staff have begun working within the Education Department. They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.
WHERE THE FUCK IS DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP???
Happens every time.
I’m old enough to remember when we had 3 branches of government. Forget checks and balances. I guess we are a Muskocracy now.
The Dumbest of Trade Wars enacted by the Dumbest Administration for these Dumbest of Times.
Dear Canada and Mexico,
We’re so, so sorry.

do you have any idea just how badly you have to fuck up to get Canada mad at you
Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"
It's totally fucking NUTS that we went 16 years without airline fatalities, and less than 2 weeks into trump's presidency we have planes crashing and falling out of the sky.
All while they're forcing top FAA and FBI folks to resign.
Nothing to see here, right? 🙄
➡️ January 20: FAA director fired
➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen
➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded
➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees
➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years
