Personal reflections on a Trumpian 2025 The implications of a year in Trump's new America and why I started tracking Trump - and why I'm not stopping.

It isn’t normal for a president to repeatedly threaten the use of military force against American citizens. Treating the National Guard as a political pawn disrespects those who serve and undermines public trust in our military.

Diary of Anne Frank is now banned in Florida schools, I assume it is because (1) negative portrayal of Nazis (2) positive portrayal of hiding innocent people being hunted by Nazis (3) general hatred of free speech (4) good old antisemitism

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.

Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Do not.

Not so giddy today, are ya, Space Dork?

Will Americans allow no law and no due process, or will they rise up in massive protests? Does it require being hit personally, before stepping up? Shut this corrupt machine down now. Before they come for you.

One of Trump’s favorite “Sir” stories in his first term was about a husband coming up to him and saying, “Sir, my wife thinks I’m the most brilliant investor” because his 401(k) was up.
Now it would be “Sir, my wife thinks I’m a dumbass because I voted for Trump.”

Picture of police guarding a Tesla dealership.

Too bad Uvalde Elementary didn’t sell Teslas.

Trump Cries for Elon, Blames 'Illegal' Liberal Boycott for Tanking Tesla Donald Trump claimed that an "illegal" liberal boycott is hurting Tesla, and vowed to buy a car from Elon Musk's electric vehicle company.

Cry harder.

"They'll never cut Social Security" is the new "they'll never overturn Roe v Wade."

Damn! Anything but a Tesla these days. Maybe that really was a Tesla you saw.

Eutelsat soars as investors bet on OneWeb satellites as European option to Starlink Franco-British satellite operator Eutelsat said on Monday it was committed to boosting Europe's autonomy in space-based connectivity and supplying internet access to war-torn Ukraine.

Fuck Musk.

This is exactly 180 degrees from the energy we need.

BREAKING: Elon Musk tries to get Verizon's FAA contract canceled -- so that he can give the $2.4 BILLION contract to his Starlink company

Musk is literally going into the government -- and pocketing billions for himself

MASSIVE conflicts of interest -- 100% ILLEGAL

Wish I were one of Elon's kids so I'd never see him again

Love Pete.

Do us a favor and arrest a Member of Congress for telling people what their constitutional rights are. Go ahead and try it thug. bsky.app/profile/acyn...
