“Highly unusual.”
“Rarely used.”
“Unprecedented move.”

Illegal. They are illegal. They are dismantling our government and our rights. Why the fuck do unvetted, anonymous, non-clearance holding Musk employees have access to millions of Americans private information?

@NatetheIrate Investing $500B into AI then immediately tariffing the primary source of chips for AI is a 5D chess move

All the scary stories about the Dark Web? Ulbricht is the guy that enabled it through The Silk Road. His capture and conviction were a triumph for actual law & order across the world. Releasing him is insane.

[Juliette Kayyem @juliettekayyem]

Ulbricht is a high tech drug dealer who got rich off the dead bodies of those who overdosed by the sales he made possible on the dark web. He's a real Day Two priority.
