@nicollewallace.bsky.social you have absolutely lost me with yet another occasion that you host Paul Rieckhoff and his both-sides bullshit. For the love of all that is holy will you please ask him just what he proposes democrats should do to stop Trump?

To all who want the left to cater to the men “suffering” from the “male loneliness epidemic,” you need to watch this. We will not bend to fragile, white, CIS-gendered, straight men. If they’re tired of being lonely, it’s on them to be someone people want to be around. youtu.be/Ker0LPaaKCY?...

@nicollewallace.bsky.social will you please someday call Paul Reickhoff on his insistence that we need to accommodate the “poor white men” who are suffering from the “male loneliness epidemic”? As a straight white male I’m not sure he’s in a position to tell the rest of us how to behave around them.

@nicollewallace.bsky.social stop playing Donald Trump. I don’t want to hear a word that comes out of that piece of shit’s filthy mouth ever again. There’s no more effective way to get me to stop watching your show than playing audio/video of Donald Trump.

I hate to break it to @michellegoldberg.bsky.social, but Elon Musk is not a brilliant engineer (which is what she said on @allinwithchris.bsky.social). He just has shitloads of money to invest in technology developed by brilliant engineers. I’m sorry, but you’re so much smarter than this.

Rep. Jim Himes: Zelenskyy is watching 70,000 dead Ukrainians. Missiles are slamming into hospitals. This is what he’s seeing, and he comes to the Oval Office, and a reporter asks him why he’s not wearing a suit. And the effing VP wants him to say thank you…

"They've radicalized me." Federal workers are fighting back as Trump dismantles their work: The totality of the effort is quite broad. Workers are filing lawsuits, joining protests and sharing internal documents with media outlets. And they've resigned, sometimes in large numbers, to protest.

This comment on r/fednews really stood out to me. Trump and Musk want people to think they're firing do-nothing "bureaucrats," but they're really getting rid of people dedicated to serving this country and keeping it operational. I hope these stories get told.
I lost my job. USDA Forest Service.


My probation was up next week.


I did everything right. I took a GS-7 role with a master’s degree just to get my foot in the door. I spent years doing seasonal fieldwork for low pay, working in remote places, gaining experience, and building skills, just for a chance at a permanent position. I was about to be a GS-9. I wrote NEPA reports. I conducted field surveys. I worked fire support. I dedicated myself to this work because I believed in it.


Public lands don’t manage themselves. The wildlife, watersheds, and forests we protect don’t just stay protected without people on the ground making it happen. My coworkers and I took on that responsibility, often in places most people never think about but that matter more than they know.


And now? Just like that, I’m out.


Edit: I’ve consistently supported progressive policies and have voted Democrat in every national and local election since I was 18. I do appreciate folks asking, I have some coworker having a serious 'leopards ate my face' moment right now.

The "large scale social deception" contract Musk is conspiracizing about was: * first awarded under Trump * paid to Reuters' data division, not the newsroom * for researching *defenses* against deception * not revealed by "DOGE investigations" and was a public record, visible online for many years
Elon: Reuters was paid millions of dollars by the US government for “large scale social deception”. 

That is literally what it says on the purchase order! They’re a total scam.

1. What Adam Serwer says. 2. 45% of a poll of 400 people with a 6% MOE is definitely not a majority. 3. MORE moderate? The party’s already so moderate it’s conservative in comparison to the rest of the world.

This is not just a musing from a dude with some various ideas. The next step is to hollow out the judiciary and also not follow their rulings, which have been against Musk’s efforts. This is a very obvious coup, for those not paying attention.

Top comment on the recent NYT story on DOGE’s young aides www.nytimes.com/shared/comme...
Goran
World - yesterday

As someone who grew up under an authoritarian regime, I can offer one crucial piece of advice: time is everything. If you don’t stand up now—if you don’t protest, resist, disrupt, and refuse to comply—you may lose your country forever. Authoritarianism thrives on silence, hesitation, and fear. The longer people wait, the more entrenched the regime becomes, making resistance exponentially harder. Every moment of inaction is a moment the regime uses to tighten its grip. History has shown that those who act early have the best chance of reclaiming their freedom. The time to fight back is now.

So much attention has been paid to Elon's college-age DOGE bros. But @propublica.org's roundup of 20+ members of Musk's demolition crew shows that it's largely comprised of alleged adults, including Katie Miller (wife of Trump whisperer Stephen Miller) projects.propublica.org/elon-musk-do...
Katie Miller, 33
Spokesperson
In December, during the transition, Trump named Miller, who served in the first administration as a press secretary to Vice President Mike Pence, as one of the first members of DOGE. She is the wife of White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller. After reports that DOGE personnel accessed internal USAID data, Katie Miller defended the group, saying that “no classified material was accessed without proper security clearances.”Stephanie Holmes, 43
Human Resources
Holmes is running human resources at DOGE, according to government workers who have been in meetings with her. A former lawyer with Jones Day, a firm that frequently represents Trump, she was previously the chief people officer at Oklo, a nuclear energy company chaired by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. She also ran her own HR consulting firm, BrighterSideHR, which advised companies to pursue “non-woke” approaches to diversity and inclusion in the workplace.Brian Bjelde, 44
Senior Adviser
Connected to: Office of Personnel Management
Musk link: Vice president of people operations at SpaceX
Bjelde is a longtime SpaceX employee who’s spent more than 20 years at the company, according to his LinkedIn profile, where he’s had a variety of jobs, including as managing director of the “food services group.” He previously worked for NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. He’s been referred to in press reports as a “top DOGE Lieutenant,” working at OPM to slash head count. CNN previously revealed that Bjelde had informed OPM staff of a plan to cut 70% of the agency’s workforce. The New York Times reported that Bjelde helped Musk cut staff at Twitter following its takeover.Anthony Armstrong, 57
Senior Adviser to the Director
Connected to: Office of Personnel Management
Musk link: Worked on Musk’s purchase of Twitter
Armstrong is a technology banker at Morgan Stanley who worked on Musk’s $44 billion acquisition of Twitter — since rebranded as X — in 2022. He has been given an influential role at OPM, which handles personnel issues across the federal government. Since Trump took office, OPM has spearheaded the new administration’s efforts to dramatically reduce the federal workforce and roll back telework and remote work policies.
