When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies.

Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE.

Funny how that works, huh?

This is a must view video.
The rise of death threats and hate harassment over the last 4 years has been shocking.
The targeting of school board officials, politicians, municipal leaders is an open threat to democracy because it targets people who dare step up to serve.
The Alt Right groups — whether it’s attacking PMJT, lib MPs or going after town councils, are impacting our democracy and destroying society.

Die Welt is a very conservative newspaper. For its opinion editor to resign over an op-ed means all sorts of red lines have been crossed.

The AfD is not just a right-wing party. It is so extreme that even figures like France’s Le Pen and Italy’s Salvini won’t work with it
Elon Musk’s pro-AfD commentary in German went online on Saturday ahead of being published on Sunday in the flagship paper of the Axel Springer media group, which also owns Politico. The editor of the German paper’s opinion section resigned in protest

This is insane:

With Bluesky really kicking off, it's scary to look at other social platforms' top-down algorithms.

We knew the "invisible" hand of tech bros at the helm of these platforms had an impact.

But I can't help but feel that on some level, we still failed to grasp but how huge that impact was (and is).
Traffic from Bluesky's @bsky.app to @theguardian.com is already 2x that of Threads

In its first week on the platform & with 300k followers, Bluesky traffic from @theguardian.com posts is already higher than it was from TwX in any week in 2024, where the account had 10.8m followers, but🧵
