"The idea that the America should think about Canada the same way Russia thinks about Ukraine—as a barely distinct neighbor, essentially an extension of itself—is at least four years old. And the person who proposed that analogy was Putin."

as Republicans scramble to avoid a government shutdown, one high profile member of Donald Trump's team has been privately advocating for one: Elon Musk

"None of this is about saving money, right?” a source told WIRED

“It’s all about destroying a liberal power base.”

Since when is boycotting a product illegal? Trump can buy all the Teslas he wants and it still don’t change the fact he’s a reckless idiot.

There are over 30 years of studies examining any potential link between autism and vaccines. Indeed the original study suggesting a relationship was debunked by its very own author. Millions of individuals have been part of studies. There is no relationship.

Trump and Vance needed to create an incident to provide a justification for their pre-planned abandonment of Ukraine now, then separation from NATO in the near future. That’s what that was all about, and that was always the way a second Trump term was going to go.

Musk is acting on the dystopian vision he shares with Thiel, Vance, and Curtis Yarvin—dismantling democracy for billionaire overlords. Gil Duran has tracked it for years, and Fred Wellman breaks it all down with him in a new On Democracy.

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.

What a dilemma for Tommy Tuberville.

He now has to say that Trump completely lied about the story where he had a whole conversation with Tommy about coaching Mahomes.

Or he has to lie and say that he coached Mahomes.

House Oversight Republicans spent two years subpoenaing and deposing every person who ever had a cup of coffee with Hunter Biden over the last 20 years, but now oppose a subpoena to hear from the person really running the government who hasn’t even had a confirmation hearing.

Elon’s making up and insane conspiracy theory about @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social and USAID that is all the rage over on MAGA Twitter. I break down the anatomy of conspiracy theory and show how none of it, not even a whiff of it, is true. It’s just how authoritarians play the game.

A great summary of where we are and what we can do 🦠🧪
I’ve unfortunately needed to add more material to my post from yesterday. The re-election of Donald Trump is looking like the biggest act of American self-destruction since the Civil War.
