In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

When social media exposes traditional media’s deceit, it’s time for independent journalists to investigate why the press is backing a president who undermines free pressβ€”and is it coordinated?

The Young, Inexperienced Engineers Aiding Elon Musk's Government Takeover Engineers between 19 and 24, most linked to Musk’s companies, are playing a key role as he seizes control of federal infrastructure.

The folks at Wired (@wired.com) have been responsible for some of the most important journalism pertaining to Elon Musk, more so than almost any other media outlet.

That streak continues with this piece below.

They deserve our support.

Sen. Tina Smith: Millions of federal workers got a memoβ€”β€œResign by Feb 6, and we’ll pay your salary through Sept.” That’s almost certainly illegal. A VA worker told me, β€œI’ve devoted my life to veterans. If I take this, will I get paid? If I don’t, will they see me as an enemy?”

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.

Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.

But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.

They aren’t firing for a reason.
