Tyler Schultz was one of the Theranos insiders who blew the whistle on Elizabeth Holmes. Today, he has a stern warning for audiences of Nathan Fielder's 'You Can See Everything': Holmes is more dangerous than she appears.

Heather Cox Richardson:Musk’s reversal of US foreign policy to benefit Putin is a stunning assumption of power reminiscent of Benedict Arnold’s weakening of US defenses at West Point to enable the British to capture it before he was discovered and defected to the British Army.

[Rep. Mike Levin @RepMikeLevin]

Someone is lying and it’s either Elon Musk or the President of the United States.

Elon Musk claimed that only the U.S. military or President Trump could impose restrictions on Starlink.

But new reporting from the WSJ alleges that Musk himself was the one to order the slowdown that hampered Ukraine’s ability to defend itself against Russian attacks.

Americans deserve answers. But, everyone in the Trump Administration is pointing fingers and claiming they knew nothing.

Either Elon Musk exercised extraordinary power he never should have had, or the President of the United States is lying to the American people.

You tried to dismantle the California Coastal Commission and give Elon power over our coastline and beaches. Shame on you! You need to go. Folks, please retweet. Cc @Surfrider

Krugman: Starlink must be taken away from Elon Musk. It’s a matter of national security:we can't let private individuals make foreign & defense policy & it would be totally irresponsible to leave a crucial military asset in the hands of a racist authoritarian conspiracy theorist.

Covid vaccines worked

Ivermectin doesn't work for Covid

Thanks and have a wonderful day

NEW: Elon Musk invests about $1 billion in Skydance that owns CBS news and CNN. The goal of course is for Musk to have domination of the social media and legacy media. Musk must be stopped. He's a threat to our nation and the world. https://t.co/1GLmO8RZ9I

@MJMcKean Maybe those staffers got into Hegseth's office gin?

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

Why is Trump making so many concessions to Russia now?

I think it's three things.

HOLY SHIT!

Elon Musk has mistaken America for another company he bought.

FDR warned us about economic royalists who sought to control the government itself.

The oligarchs are back. So is the fight.

There need to be serious consequences for this cretin. There is compelling evidence to suggest he lied on his citizenship app and lived illegally in the United States for years, so permanent deportation is a good start. But he has also caused deaths, so imprisonment is necessary.

[Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran]

Impeachable offence btw.

[Mike Young @micyoung75]

Ronan Farrow reported in 2023 that the Pentagon signed a SpaceX contract to keep Musk from being able to cut off Ukraine’s battlefield connectivity at will. Colin Kahl described it as a way to lock in service so Musk couldn’t just flip the switch.

WSJ now reports U.S. officials say Musk ordered the Oct. 14 Starshield slowdown anyway, after speaking with Trump.

If that reporting holds, the guardrail didn’t hold.

@warrenleightTV Were Hegseth's staffers drunk at work too?

[Joe Leydon @JoeLeydon]

Years ago, when I interviewed Brad Pitt for one of his early movies ("Johnny Suede") at Toronto Film Festival, he was eager to say how impressed he was while working with someone on the upcoming "A River Runs Through It," and how much he learned from the guy. No, not director Robert Redford. Costar Tom Skerritt.

[timappelo @timappelo]

High time to deport illegal immigrant Musk.

[Seth Abramson @SethAbramson]

Sure is

@jeffjarvis Can't wait to read your memoir!

[timappelo @timappelo]

"Soliqueries!"

[Jeff (Hot Type) Jarvis @jeffjarvis]

When Joe's away, Mika turns up the volume to 11 and apparently thinks she needs to fulfill a quota for long soliloquies as questions: soliqueries (also a speciality of Mike Barnicle's, albeit at lower volume).
