The irony of the richest man in the world almost single-handedly destroying an agency designed to help the world’s poor, so that the U.S. federal budget has more room for another giant tax cut for the richest man in the world and his pals, should not be lost on anyone. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

We are witnessing the Adolf Hitler playbook unfolding right before our eyes. Yet, people are nonchalant about it.

. Love Poem There is no question of choice, but it takes a long time. Love’s vacancies, the eye & cavity, track back to embraces where the spine bends & quietens like smoke in the earth. Your tongue, touching on song, darkens all songs. Your touch is almost a signature. .

How Musk's USAID efforts indicate an ideology larger than we are used to talking about. One we have to adjust to quickly as his power grows.

Google Maps has officially changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico to "Gulf of America" after Trump's executive order. And a new Republican bill would let Trump rename Greenland "Red, White and Blueland." Still no word on lowering the cost of groceries, however.

Trump says ousted Gazans will have no right to return. Also threatens to cut aid to Jordan & Egypt unless they host Gazas population. Also says Gazans cannot return. Gaza belongs to its people. It is a sovereign territory. His plan to turn it into the Riviera violates intnl law & every moral code

“[Leon] did not shut down USAID because it was ‘a ball of worms with no apple.’ He shut it down because USAID was investigating Starlink for shutting off satellites in Ukraine to assist Russia in its war. Everything Musk ever does is to serve one person: himself”

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

Tesla Paid Zero Federal Income Tax in 2024, Despite $2.3 Billion in Income
This brings Tesla’s average tax rate over the past three years to 0.4 percent.

DOGE's next target is the CFPB, which has returned $20B to the victims of financial fraud and abuse since 2011. Trump just fired its pro-consumer director and had his Treasury Secretary, a hedge fund manager, halt the CFPB's work. This is a coup against the American people.
