a heartwarming story of how being an unethical and talentless hack is no barrier to success when you are willing to endlessly flatter the wretched views of rich dipshits

In a Hitleresque speech, JD Vance says there can be no unity with the left and vows to use the government to dismantle non-profit NGOs and liberal civil society who he says promote violence and terrorism.

Protests aren’t the only tool in the anti-authoritarian toolkit, but they’re incredibly important. Protests help us see each other; they make it feel safer to refuse to obey the dictator, and make it more possible for us to organize mass non-cooperation. It’s an essential step in the process.

Some good news on the foreign aid funding freeze fight! As many have seen, the DC District Court has just issued a TRO against USG. A big initial victory, but there's a long road ahead. Some initial thoughts on the ruling, but first, here is the @nytimes.com writeup: www.nytimes.com/2025/02/14/u...

Judge Orders Trump Administration to Resume Foreign Aid Spending
The judge faulted the logic of a blanket freeze on foreign aid spending and found that groups that depend on the aid had made a strong initial showing of “irreparable harm.”

Elon Musk is perpetrating a digital and financial coup. This is not hyperbole. This is not euphemism. This is what has happened. 🧵

And Elon tweeting that USAID is a criminal organization that has to die -- unhinged, & another level of constraints that this sector hasn't realized it needs to contend with. How will partner NGOs react to news of (what?) information he wanted to obtain? How will this sector build trust again?

Not a great sign when Wired says it won't name at least two fo the people Musk has installed to run the Office of Personnel Management because they may be minors www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Elon Musk Lackeys Have Taken Over the Office of Personnel Management
Sources tell WIRED that the OPM’s top layers of management now include individuals linked to xAI, Neuralink, the Boring Company, and Palantir. One expert found the takeover reminiscent of Stalin.
