Can we rename Musks group of merry bandits? I vote for GIGO to stay with the 4 letter abbreviation. Might be more accurate too!!!

SCHIFF: “Why is this firing of FBI agents such an important piece of this effort by Trump, Musk & their enablers? Because if they're going to raid the treasury, take people's private data, illegally shut down agencies... They don't want an FBI to examine anything they're doing.”

Pete Hegseth left his Venmo on public. @lukewgoldstein.bsky.social and @drboguslaw.bsky.social looked at his transactions and found a lot of elite DC insiders with major financial stakes before the Pentagon: prospect.org/politics/202...

Anyway as they pull bodies out of the Potomac bear in mind that the guiding ethos of Trumpism is that the TSA, NTSB, and FAA should be radically downsized and run by dudes whose main qualifications are loyalty are a willingness to say “cunt” a lot

Anyone else who is in So Cal checking the Watch Duty (wild fire tracker) app every 30 min today and ready to “go” if the next fire is close. This wind is brutal today (again).

I am curious how many followers can trade their family heritage to “birthright citizenship” like I can. Grandfather born in New York, couple months after being “carried” through Ellis Island. Start of our family being Americans.

Those conducting hiring interviews- here is a suggestion (credit to Adam Grant PhD)- at the end of each interview ask “what’s wrong with our interview process?” Then listen and learn from the candidates!!

Once again it’s worth noting about the white male party: “Notably, there are fewer women in the 119th Congress than in the previous one, and there will be no women chairing committees in the Republican-dominated House.” - @hcrichardson.bsky.social heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/january-2-...

Today, #KashPatel sent a letter to my counsel @markzaidesq.bsky.social threatening to sue & demanding I retract my MSNBC comments on his unfitness to serve as FBI Director. This follows his threats against media & political opponents, showing how he might act if confirmed. I stand by my statements.
