Elon musk is the richest man in the world, he could be funding hospitals, medical research and universities. He could be solving the climate crisis. He could be feeding, hungry children. Instead, he’s trying to make sure that your grandmother doesn’t get an extra dollar of Social Security.

The newly created vacancies in the DOJ and at the FBI will be quickly filed by people who will no longer simply look the other way but will be eager to help Musk accomplish his goals. The threat to those trying to resist these efforts or hold them accountable will grow over time.
Elon Musk Hollows Government So Trump Can Refill It

Does Trump intend to replace fired federal workers with MAGA loyalists? Are there job interviews going on now—and what kinds of questions are asked?

"You have hot chocolate for breakfast and hot chocolate for lunch. You wear pajamas and snow pants. You trespass with abandon, as neighbors’ hills and public streets become fair game." We're going to give that up for a day of online quasi-school? Really?
In Defense of Snow Days
Inconvenient? Yep. Unpredictable? Sure. Disruptive? Yes. But a snow day is also a minor civic miracle, and we ought to treat it as such.

This doesn’t seem like it should be hard.
Dems can:
-oppose all Trump nominees until this EO is withdrawn
-deny unanimous consent to slow senate proceedings
-vote no on all cloture
-force quorum calls at every chance
It’s a constitutional crisis. There is absolutely no reason the Senate should be connecting business as usual.

The thing to understand about Trump is like in his first term, he doesn’t want to govern. He doesn’t want to learn. He wants to campaign and look good.
Republicans know this. So there are battles going on right now to take control of the actual process of governing.

Maybe Trump could swap certain states—N.Y. and California—for Greenland. Then we could become part of Denmark and get their free healthcare and other social welfare benefits.

Trump rescinded Biden's Executive Order to lower prescription drug costs for Americans, which will be devastating for tens of millions of people.
We need to stay focused on issues like that—not on the shiny, offensive distractions like Elon's weird salute.

Does anyone think that anyone delivering these accusations of antisemitism actually believes it? Or do they do it solely as a smear campaign? You'd have to be pretty stupid or ethnocentric to actually believe criticism of Israel constitutes antisemitism

The discourse around the pervasive tendency among our political, media, and business elites to accommodate Trump and signal compliance is, in my opinion, focused too much on the idea that they are “obeying because they’re cowards” - as opposed to the idea that many don’t think Trump is all that bad.
