DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA. Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps. Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems. See how this works?

This was Thursday. I have never seen a government official hold a press conference with a drink in their hand. But it's worth noting that Pete Hegseth can't get through a professional event without a bourbon.

if Canada wants to do something with some bite, they can stop letting u.s. oil companies build 100's of miles of pipelines to transport oil from their provinces to the states it would break less Indigenous treaties, reduce MMIWG2S victims, & cause less environmental damage in the short & long term

Elon Musk has changed his X profile. His avatar is now Pepe the Frog, a mascot adopted by white supremacists. His name is a Latinisation of “Kek”, a phrase used by neo-Nazis. Musk has also backed AfD in Germany, the political home for racists. The man is telling us explicitly what he’s about.

Don’t be naive enough to assume those who support fascism that aren’t white just haven’t realized that white supremacists don’t like them yet. They believe in white supremacy, that’s why they support it.
