It’s almost like these people were in the MCU Blip during Trump’s *first* term.
Laid-off IRS employee said he had voted for Trump: "I thought that someone with his business acumen would have come in with a fine-tooth comb and actually found it instead of coming in with a wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason."

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!
Okay what is going on here. Are the accounts at a private banking entity? Does the federal government have direct debit permission set up? So many questions as to how Treasury instructed this payment. (Via NY Post’s Craig McCarthy)

With both RFK Jr and Gabbard confirmed, two people who rose to prominence spreading conspiracy theories about public health and national intelligence will now run the U.S. government agencies in charge of those areas. For someone studying these conspiracy theories for a decade... this is nauseating.

Every single time news media like @nytimes.com writes “Musk’s cost-cutting effort” or “cost-cutting team” they participate in shoring up a deadly lie. None of this is or has every been about cost cutting and it never will be.
Elon Musk’s cost-cutting effort announced a variety of cuts at the Education Department totaling over $900 million, apparently aimed at hobbling the department’s research arm, the Institute of Education Sciences.

I find this so ugly and pernicious. These two aren't pursuing principled, independent scholarship. They're racing to build intellectual scaffolding for Trump's lawless order by skimming the history books and cherry-picking quotes out of context. The most intellectually bankrupt form of originalism.
