It would be a real shame if the racist transphobic ableist portal enddei.ed.gov got flooded with garbage and spam.

Enrique Tarrio just announced a lawsuit against the DOJ. He says it will be funded by their crypto investments.

I have identified at least two dozen pardoned Capitol Rioters that are currently attending CPAC in Washington, D.C. —including members of far right extremists groups such as the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers.

Elon Musk’s DOGE Website Is Already Getting Hacked The DOGE.gov website is such a coding disaster that pretty much anyone can take over.

Two coders have already infiltrated the DOGE website and left their own messages on it at the time of 404’s reporting on Thursday evening: “THis is a joke of a .gov site,” said one, and “THESE ‘EXPERTS’ LEFT THEIR DATABASE OPEN -roro” said another.

These Pintos go hard

If people send their tax money to a gov’t in which their elected representatives have no control over how that tax money is spent (because the executive has taken over that role), then isn’t that “taxation without representation?” I seem to remember a historical event inspired by something like that

Image shows the Yeezy website with a swastika t-shirt for sale as the only item on the page. It also shows the website source code, which has the "shopify" mentions highlighted. There are 127 matches.

A swastika t-shirt is the only item on the Yeezy website.

Powered by Shopify.

It's not the first time Shopify has powered stores selling items with Swastikas. I've reached out to them about this before, and they kept powering the stores.

The only thing they changed, eventually, was their rules.

His illiquidity is the danger. He has to keep doing shit like this. The Not Actually Real Money Bus must be kept above $200 billion or it will explode. All of this shit is basically debt and blackmail and it's forcing people like Musk into increasingly precarious and dangerous positions.

DOGE Staffer Resigns Over Racist Posts A staffer for Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency whose access to U.S. Treasury payment systems was approved by a federal judge on Thursday has links to a deleted social-media account that...

I linked DOGE staffer Marko Elez to a deleted X account that advocated repealing the Civil Rights Act, backed a “eugenic immigration policy,” and wrote, “You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity."

He just resigned. www.wsj.com/tech/doge-st...

You Can’t Post Your Way Out of Fascism Authoritarians and tech CEOs now share the same goal: to keep us locked in an eternal doomscroll instead of organizing against them, Janus Rose writes.

Was just thinking about that

Just as Joe McCarthy did not actually have a list of 57 known Communists, a number that kept changing, Trump just makes up shit like saying we're sending $100 million of condoms to Hamas. It was $50 million just the other day, but propaganda, not the truth, is the point. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Proud Boys Lose Control of Their Name to a Black Church They Vandalized (Gift Article) A judge awarded the trademarked name and symbols to a Washington church to help satisfy a $2.8 million judgment against the far-right group.

Judge rules that Black church in DC, which won a $2.8 million default judgment against the Proud Boys, now gains control over the trademark “Proud Boys.” The far-right group is barred from selling any related merchandise or symbols without the consent of the church. Gift link:

This would be the same Darren Beattie who was fired by the Trump White House after it was revealed that he attended a white nationalist conference. (Those were the days, eh?) He was then hired by Matt Gaetz as a speechwriter, then went on to be a key creator of the "J6 was an FBI op" story.

Kash Patel Says He Never Promoted QAnon. Here Are All The Times He Did Kash Patel helped keep the QAnon movement alive on Truth Social, interacting with Q accounts, appearing on QAnon podcasts, and signing his children’s books with a QAnon catchphrase.

Elon Musk's mother moved to South Africa in the year Apartheid was created, and she and Elon left the year it ended. The last Apartheid Prime Minister, a man who refused to testify at the Truth and Reconciliation Committee, was a family friend who stayed at their home. This is not a crazy theory.

Um, people need to stop and read this. Musk’s team is looking at the coding of the Treasury payment system. prospect.org/economy/2025...

I’m embarrassed for you

NEW: Archived tweets for Gavin Kriger, Musk's 20-something DOGE employee wreaking havoc inside USAID, shows that Kriger has retweeted multiple neo-Nazis including Nick Fuentes, leader of the so-called Groyper movement, and another popular explicit Nazi account recently unmasked by @travisbrown.dev

Legacy media is not fucking prepared for what is coming lol.

The dynamics of this horrifying political moment reflect years long trends w/in our information systems: audience capture of an influencer by conspiracy theorists who are motivated by the interactions to descend further into those theories, attracting more attention and gaining power along the way.

How long before republicans realize that Elon doesn’t give a shit about them?

you’re adorable ☺️

What folks are getting a tough lesson in right now: Institutions are people. They are not abstract forces that exist as firewalls or safeguards. They are just people who play a role and who perhaps have abided by norms, but whose decisions minute to minute shape the role those institutions play.

Opinion | The Lost Tradition That Explains Trump’s Obsession With the Panama Canal Inside the lost tradition in American foregin policy that explains the president’s overseas obsessions.

Super smart analysis of Trump's approach to foreign policy by historian @jenmittelstadt.bsky.social. Trump is not a dovish isolationist. He's carrying forward a 100+ year tradition of US "sovereignty politics" that is often quite belligerent vis a vis other nations.

Yeah we’re terrified of a person who creates multiple bluesky accounts and talks to themselves all day

5. And if you are not convinced on the moral merits, at least think about the politics. We need allies. We all, being human, have the unfortunate tendency to treat other people's errors as an opportunity for showing off how much better we are than them, than taking opportunities to build alliances.

Tariff wars always good for average people.
