As if the richest unhinged asshole on the planet could possibly represent the 80% 😂

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Is it time to create a new political party in America that actually represents the 80% in the middle?

Sheryl Crow says she has sold her Tesla and donated the proceeds to NPR.

“My parents always said... you are who you hang out with.
There comes a time when you have to decide who you are willing to align with. So long Tesla. Money donated to NPR, which is under threat by President Musk, in hopes that the truth will continue to find its way to those willing to know the truth.”

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

Even worse incompetence: they accidentally fired, then apparently today un-fired, hundreds of the people who manage America's nuclear weapons.

@1997NikiD @broadwaybabyto The only narcissism here is from the healthcare worker’s inability to think about anything other than their own stubborn wants. A non-narcissist would care & recognize that putting a mask on doesnt impact them, but is important to the patient and their physical health and safety.

@SenBillCassidy As a physician, you have a responsibility to contribute to the improvement of the America and the betterment of all public health, to prevent harm + disease, and to advance scientific knowledge. I urge you not to violate your own ethics- RFK will cause great harm.

US Oligarch Elon Musk does Nazi salute after being gifted "government position" by US Oligarch Donald Trump. (2025)

[BlackLemon 🍋 @Merikaisburning]

@SymoneDSanders A 53 year old man, with German ancestry, from apartheid South Africa, who hangs around racists, who does research for a living, who graduated from college, and has unfathomable wealth does not "accidentally" make a gesture like that.

[Amanda Christensen @ampeders]

Yeah you're not going to gaslight us out of this one- that's a fucking Nazi salute.

[evan loves worf @esjesjesj]

They’re calling this a Roman salute even though there’s no proof it ever existed in Rome and also the Nazis based their salute off of it. There’s no way around what happened here

[Mr. Beat @beatmastermatt]

And the Trump presidency begins with the richest person in the world giving a Nazi salute.

@SasTrendy @TheEmmapreneur Same experience! I was in GATE in 4th grade and I hated going to it and they wanted me in it for 5th grade as well but I threw a fit and made my mom get me out of it. I can’t explain why but it gives me a visceral pit in my stomach thinking about it- I knew something was off.

I have never once, in my 45 years of living, been harassed in a bathroom by a trans female.

However, I have been harassed by a man walking down the street minding my own business many, many, many, many times.

Gender neutral bathrooms aren't the problem.

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

Interesting timing, isn’t it? Musk’s “Department of Government Efficiency” rolls out a plan, and suddenly NASA’s future is on the chopping block—right as SpaceX stands to gain.

This isn’t about efficiency; it’s about funneling public resources into private pockets.

@guelphgirlchris Of course he is. Why let a trusted institution uncover skeletons when you can hire your own spin doctors to sweep them under the rug? This is corruption 101.

[UnderDog @NoFear_DogHere]

@guelphgirlchris The FBI should vet them anyway .. and make public whatever they find. Trump doesn't own them yet.

[Donald Frump @torontobaddy]

Per CNN: Trump refuses to have FBI vet his nominees. He has chosen instead to hire private investigators. This is bad. 😳

[April Ajoy @aprilajoyr]

Okay yes a second Trump presidency is terrifying but based on these Trump picks, I think there's a decent chance that stupidity gets in the way of the fascism. I think that's our hope: crippling idiocy.

[Brett Meiselas @BMeiselas]

I'm just not so sure the presidency and the position of attorney general were meant to be safe havens for people trying to avoid prison time
