Elon Musk admits Trump's plans will collapse the U.S. economy, says that it's necessary for everyday Americans to experience "temporary hardship" https://t.co/gxfzFPXJyo
A key Trump ally detailed plans to defund the Environmental Protection Agency and put #EPA career civil servants “in trauma” in a series of previously unreported speeches that provide a sweeping vision for a second Trump term https://t.co/ELCFHHteOd
If you want to get a sense of just how much social media companies no longer give a shit about what's on their platform, read @misstessowen's scoop on militias organizing on Facebook...
And how Meta is AUTO-GENERATING PAGES for these groups

been thinking about the bigoted guy on CNN since i saw it last night
my theory is his specific type of open racism comes from a social milieu composed entirely of discord, twitter, streamers and message boards who go for shock value and dont experience reactions in real life
Surprise! The paramilitary movement is still relying on Facebook to recruit and organize ahead of the election.
In some instances, Facebook is even helping them by autogenerating pages for militias they've explicitly banned.

SCOOP via @misstessowen: Ahead of the election, militias are using Facebook to recruit, coordinate training, and promote ballot box stakeouts. Meta isn’t shutting their groups down and is even *auto-generating* pages.
Yes, *auto-generating*

It’s sorta hilarious that the Trump campaign stumbled ass backwards into getting a bunch of unexpected minority support, and all they had to do to keep it was not even NOT be racist, but just maintain their CURRENT LEVEL of racism, and instead they put on Bigot Coachella in NYC.
@lib_crusher I happened upon an episode a couple of years ago while idly flipping through channels after watching something else, and I was surprised by how much I lol’d from start to finish. I had watched the first season when it began but I didn’t remember it being ~that~ funny. Confusing!
@HeerJeet It’s been pointed out before, but it’s a huge problem that so many ppl do not understand/appreciate how great the difference is between a billion and a million. They see or hear the numbers but do not ~get~ how insane it is for one person to have access to a billion or billions.
Fully a third of Trump's funding comes from billionaires, many of whom he's promised to appoint to powerful government jobs. Even by the lax standards of American politics, this is corruption on a massive scale.https://t.co/5UN9XjetUu
.@Sunny Hostin: "This Puerto Rican has something to say about the island that I love, where my family is from. Puerto Rico is trash? We are Americans, Donald Trump."
"My fellow Puerto Ricans, trash collection day is November 5, 2024. Don't forget it."
I’m here to tell you that even though some have forgotten … I remember.
I remember what it was like when Trump was president.
I remember what he did and said, about Puerto Rico…
About our people ...
I remember after Hurricane Maria devastated our island…
Trump blocked billions in relief … while thousands died.
I remember that when our families lacked clean water and electricity,
Trump threw paper towels and called Puerto Rico “dirty” and “poor.”
But I was not surprised..
Because I ALSO remember… he launched his campaign by calling Latinos criminals and rapists.
He’s told us what he’ll do.
He'll separate children from their families and threatened to use the ARMY to do it
This election goes way beyond political parties.
Now let’s remember what the United States represents and stands for. It’s our name - United.
Regardless of where we’re from.
I’m Marc Anthony…
I remember…
And that’s why I support Kamala Harris for President
