The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Cf his editorial in the NYT this past Sunday. Hilarious.

Can you imagine something worse for a mayoral candidate in NYC than being endorsed by Trump, Musk, and Stephen Miller?

YESSSSSSSSSS

This has to be one of the most obliviously disastrous policy proposals since the Iraq War. It’s almost guaranteeing that crypto causes a financial crisis and then taxpayers bail out crypto companies.

Crypto is just an elaborate scam—and this is its ultimate heist.

Done.

Done.

This seems like a great day to remind Bluesky that Stephen Miller lived four doors down from me freshman year

And our student council person asked him (and everyone) to sign a birthday card for our dorm’s janitor

And he threw a tantrum and wrote an op-ed about not socializing with “the help.”

Gélineau advanced the term "narcolepsy" in 1880 while de la Tourette described his eponymous syndrome in 1885. "Autism" was coined by Bleuler in 1911, with full diagnoses soon after.

But what do I know? I'm not the Cabinet secretary in charge of the goddamn Department of Health and Human Services.

He seems nice.

Musk fights back as some Trump aides resist intensifying DOGE push The White House said federal agencies have discretion over key policy, as records showed Elon Musk’s team pushing for still more enormous changes.

“At DOGE’s behest, meanwhile, VA plans to cancel 875 contracts, including those that help to provide medical services, recruit doctors and provide burial services to veterans.” www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.

Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

'Here’s a civics lesson for you': Stephen Miller gets schooled by Democratic congresswoman Stephen Miller, President Donald Trump’s White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, attempted to deliver a “civics lesson” to U.S. Rep. Mikie Sherrill (D-NJ), but his move quickly backfired, prompt...

“Gee, thanks Stephen. Here’s a civics lesson for you."

Over 1,000 EPA Workers on Climate Change and More Could Be Fired ‘Immediately’ A spokeswoman for Lee Zeldin, the new head of the agency, said the goal was to create an “effective and efficient” federal work force.

"At 9:21 a.m. on Monday, E.P.A. employees received another email notifying them of that the agencywide intranet was out of service. Without the internal agency network, employees cannot access documents or other information needed for their jobs." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/03/c...

1/ OK, Democratic members of Congress in the US Senate. It’s time for some tough love.

I am aware your pollsters and consultants tell you things like “the American people want us to work together” and “ focus on prescription drug prices in the economy.”

President Musk now has access to all your internet passwords and has signed you up for $3000/month of his neo-Nazi newsletters, cross-referenced with his Treasury and DOJ accounts. @nytimes.com hed tomorrow morning: "Musk, Defying Expectations, Boldly Seizes an Historic Opportunity."

Hi, I am @motherjones.com' disability reporter. In the following weeks, I am very interested in hearing how tariff nonsense impacts getting your meds and medical equipment. My email to get in touch is jmetraux@motherjones.com. Reposts appreciated.

@fetterman.senate.gov please do something about Elon Musk. You can make this stop.

From The Onion:

The Damage to Federal Medical Research Is Already Done Clinical trials may have to be scrapped, research applications will be pushed back, and unpaid researchers will quickly leave the sector—even if the Trump administration’s funding pause is only…

When Trump paused federal funding to all grants and loans, it plunged scientific research into chaos. Though the freeze was rescinded for some sectors, it's still in largely place for universities and research institutions. The damage will be lasting.

California DOE fires back against Trump's executive order:

"It does nothing"

"It is against federal law for the White House to dictate what educators can and cannot teach"

Will not comply.

This is terrifying.
