Elon Musk Returns to His Trump Playbook in a Big Wisconsin Race The billionaire, now a White House official and no longer a private citizen, is spending millions of dollars to elect a conservative judge, and making himself a main character in the race.

Elon Musk is spending millions of dollars to elect Brad Schimel, a conservative judge in Wisconsin, to the State Supreme Court. If he succeeds, conservatives will retake a 4-to-3 majority and be in a position to push the state rightward on issues like abortion, labor rights and congressional maps.

Sanders: Does anybody think it makes sense that we have a campaign finance system where one man (Musk) can put $270 million to get Trump elected and then his reward is that he becomes the most powerful person in government?

That is not democracy. That is oligarchy.

I *hate* this blatant, callous betrayal (regardless of party), I hope you join the resistance & share your stories.

You matter.
Your service matters.
Your stories matter.

Elon Musk’s use of Air Force One with family sparks backlash over β€˜government waste’ | The Express Tribune Photos of Elon Musk, his mother, and son on Air Force One with Trump fuel criticism over government spending concerns.

While Trump & Musk DOGE cut the federal workforce and federal contracts leaving THOUSANDS of Americans UNEMPLOYED, Elon Musk & his family are flying for FREE on Air Force.

MUSK is a BILLIONAIRE!! Why are OUR taxes paying for this? THIS is fraud, waste, & abuse.

"Recoup the costs" The sadism of American policy to war-torn Ukraine

The premise of American foreign policy to Ukraine, today, is one of grievance. It is worth patiently considering the proposals. They reveal little about Ukraine, but much about America in February 2025.

My favorite Europeans are nine years old A view from a school in Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine

This was the first time in their lives, I realized, that these boys and girls had been in an actual classroom. The Russian invasion began as covid was ending. Two years of covid seclusion had been followed directly by three years of war. The kids were buoyant.

Stop the coup. Please make criminal referrals, amicus briefs, or else resign Text SIGN PMFEDF to 50409 β€” Today the shocking realignment of Trump towards our long-time foe Putin and against out long-time allies and NATO partners became evident in the UN vote-- where America did not vote to condemn Putin's invasion of Ukraine. We have long seen Trump's attraction to Putin. Still, this is shocking and tragic. Our allies are reeling. I am aghast and grief stricken. It's time for you and your colleagues to recognise the profound, treacherous betrayal. If Russia has tried to conquer the US and install a puppet they could not have done so more easily. Or more thoroughly. You need to speak out publicly to condemn Trump's fealty to Putin. Individually and collectively you must explain that America was not paying Ukraine, but buying supplies in America to send there. Just like USAID pays US farmers for food sent abroad. It's time for all senators, not just the courageous few, to stand against the coup that is dismantling our government, our services, our rights, our federal agencies, our national monuments. I ask you to arrange for criminal referrals to be filed for Musk and his posse of digital terrorists to DOJ/FBI; please also prepare and file amicus briefs in the court cases regarding the usurpation of Constitutional authority; also file suits of your own in relation to other illegalities that touch on your state or your committee powers and areas of expertise. DOGE has been a giant catastrophically damaging con. No big fraud or waste discovered and chaos and suffering created. Don't wait to let the courts sort it out for you: you took a solemn oath to the constitution. It's YOUR job to uphold and defend it. That Trump would end up in the embrace of Putin, doing his bidding and betraying our allies while destroying the rule of law and constitutional checks and balances is a tragedy and a crime. For you, the senate, to look on and collectively fail to stand up for the constitution, your constituents, the rule of law, our allies and partners is evil and cowardly. Please reply in writing to let me know about the criminal referrals and subpoenas and amicus briefs you are undertaking. Please take all other measures in your power to stop this coup. If you are unable to honor your oath to the constitution, consider speedy resignation the least dishonorable action.

Selecting another right-wing Fox personality and internet troll β€” Dan Bongino β€” as Deputy FBI Director means two things:

Trump installs another loyalist who won’t say no to any immoral or unethical act.

And our law enforcement agencies β€” and the public safety β€” are further degraded.

Elon Musk fired a disabled Veteran with 3 tours of duty from his job serving other Veterans at the VA.

Elon’s companies get billions from defense contracts. He’s happy to profit off our servicemembers - but when he can no longer make money off them, he kicks them to the curb.

Measles outbreak in Texas rises to at least 58 cases β€” the state's worst in over 30 years A measles outbreak in Texas​ has led to 58 confirmed cases, making it the state's worst in over 30 years β€” and local health officials say additional cases​ are likely to occur.

In 2019, RFK Jr visited Samoa to spread anti-vax lies, spurring a measles outbreak that led to the deaths of 83 people - mostly children.

We can’t let that tragedy repeat in Texas. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective at preventing measles. Let’s stop the spread.
