Absolutely agree that what these 2 are doing is reprehensible, but people want to participate in their grift. They want salacious details & soap opera drama, & don’t seem to care about the stakes. We have to take away the desire for this & incentives to prey on it but I don’t know how we do that.

Nice, I also accidentally bought the audiobook via a single click and it doesn’t look like you can return those so I hope that helps in some way

i do not care about "the future of the democratic party" as discussed by professional-class bozos who cannot see beyond their next client. i care about not living under a military occupation that is disappearing my neighbors

It feels like those videos of people about to put the last puzzle piece in place and then the person filming sweeps the whole thing off the table

And other progressives on the ballot won handily. I don't get it. They're still counting votes but he's just increasing his lead.

15 million Americans are going to lose their health care.

Don't engage. Just block. They want to push their rage bait on here. Don't give them the satisfaction.

lol it’s this guy

Chuck has to remember the outrage from last time they did this, so it is super depressing to see no lessons were learned, or that he learned not to be bothered.

Never great to shut down the govt, but when it is this lawless and unaccountable I don’t see what difference it even makes.

I assume they don’t want MAGA or Trump coming after them. It’s just cowardice.

I think the problem is we only know about this one because he decided to retire

They launched a coup, suffered no consequences for it, won back power, and have used the power to pardon everyone involved while remaking the country through violence and intimidation. It’s just ridiculous to talk about the political violence of yelling at ICE agents within that context.

People incredulous that the gunman had a police car…you know you can just buy them, right?

Yes, he revels in it. As a feature of who he is it overpowers everything else.

This was striking to me:

several senior Trump officials practically hated the tech billionaire, finding him abrasive, unfunny, and pompous—with some describing Musk as the “most irritating person” they’d “ever had to deal with.”

Had they never seen Musk do anything in the last 4 years??

Dems are so lost right now that they value the dopamine hit of this “advice” over any understanding the only thing we have in common with these voices is disliking Trump. All they want is for us to be more like them (god forbid Rs ever moderate). These voices will not come save us at the ballot.

Anus Dave’s Ghost Pepper Sphincter Sauce is 45% of our GDP

Absolutely this. Also, the damage is done and he’s infused his particular stink into the brand whether he is the chief executive or not. They are a symbol of Musk from Model 3 to Cybertruck. That will continue for years unless the company completely reinvents itself, which seems unlikely.

It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

I bet this guy got PPP loans too

The worst to ever do it (it = exist)

Rome hails JD Vance — then Colosseum tourists bay for his blood The US vice-president’s Easter visit to the Vatican began with blessings but ended with Italian journalists mocking his imperial entourage and closing of the Colosseum

AND THEN HE DIDN'T EVEN SHOW UP!

"Vance dropped out at the last minute and it was his wife, Usha, and three young children, brandishing plastic swords, who got to enjoy Italy’s most popular tourist attraction on their own"

At least she was correct about this being very unpopular

Yeah for sure. He also plowed a lot more than this into Rivian years ago & had more involvement there.

Tough these days to find a thing that doesn't have some greasy billionaire's hands all over it. Wld hate to see Slate disappear just because of him, I think they're trying to do something cool.

I'm not here to defend the financial honor of Jeff fucking Bezos lol, but if ppl are on the fence about the car because of this I'm not sure that's totally fair to Slate. It's not like ol' Jeff is making these himself out of mashed up Amazon employees or something

Exclusive: Inside the EV startup secretly backed by Jeff Bezos | TechCrunch Jeff Bezos is funding a secretive EV startup based in Michigan called Slate Auto that could start production as soon as next year, according to multiple

I don't think we know that it is a "Bezos endeavor" for sure. Total of 15 other wealthy investors @ $111M in 2023. Everyone writing about this puts Bezos in the headline because it drives traffic. He could have put in $1 or $110M, nobody knows.

They already sell ones themselves, and one of the config options is to add 2 traditional speakers to the doors.
