Someone is gonna off that NAZI motherfucker sooner rather than later, and the second he comes after veterans, and tries to steal VA disability from millions of disabled vets, he can count on that sooner becoming ASAP. Watch your back motherfucker!
fuck these fascist motherfuckers! They may have some power right now, but if they think Trump getting prosecuted was FBI weaponization, wait until these fucking assholes get what's coming to them. Their asses are gonna hurt so much from getting assfucked with razor blades in prison, they'll wish they were just some incontinent old orange man.
Ta, Marcie. The Federal Bureau of Investigation investigates CRIMES. Crimes like the insurrection at the Capitol on January 6th of 2021. Criminals want them to stop.
I can't express how sickened I am by all of this. In trump's world you can be fired for raising purple dragons. They don't have to have a reason they just make it up. The "weaponization of the DOJ" is a right-wing fantasy. Just like "DEI" and "CRT." Just like transgender surgery at the local elementary school. None of this exists outside of their circle of folks that believe we're sending 1 billion condoms to Gaza. It's like if I woke up one morning, put on my slippers and then was slammed against the wall, and arrested for wearing slippers. Too bad I didn't know that slippers were now evil according to a group of lunatics. I don't know what kind of judge doesn't at some point say that you have to prove weaponization before accusing somebody of doing it. Ditto with DEI firings.
We're living in an upside-down world where the accusation is enough.
This guy should get the word "truth" out of his mouth. By that he means the RWNJ reality-inverting spin that the FBI did huge injustice to PAB just by even investigating his sorry ass, and his wannabe brownshirts.
So I looked up that FBI lawsuit. There was a hearing scheduled for this morning on a TRO. Also, case was assigned to a Black Lady Judge appointed in 2021 (so I guess that means Joe appointed her) and she has a pretty decent background, including being a public defender for a while.
Musk looks like a guy at a buffet table who eats a piece of cheese, licks his fingers, picks up a breadstick, puts it back and heads for the cookies, ensuring that no one else will eat from that table.
It so would. I'd want to use old friends for places to crash haha. And avoid old boyfriends. But I should. I need it. LA PLAYA. Real BAJA fish tacos. MUY BUENO.
One visit, "off season" I had Torrey Pines beach virtually all to myself, the whole thing, for a few miles. One dude, very Dude, in a lawn chair just in the water, with a fishing pole (????), lol. That was seriously therapeutic.
DOGE broadens sweep of federal agencies, gains access to health payment systems
Associates of Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency have spread out across the federal government in recent days, alarming many career employees.
How come no one is seemingly able to physically stop them or get them booted from the buildings? Are the DC cops just in on it (I suspect I know the answer to this question)?
They’re trying to blank out home rule too and that's their budget
But I'd bet money on crooked Secret Service. Remember all the ones deleting Jan 6 2021 messages who STILL refused to be interviewed by the Jan 6 Committee?
DOGE officials have also sought access to payment and contracting systems across the Department of Health and Human Services, which control hundreds of billions of dollars in payments to health-care providers, and they appear to have gained access to at least some of those systems, the people said.
I need a break from all this shitty news, so I'm going to sweat away my anger on my rowing machine while watching a Barbara Stanwyck biography. Peace out, my fellow resisters.
It's a great workout. I burn more calories rowing for an hour than I do speed walking on my treadmill for an hour. I have to get back into fighting shape for the upcoming battles for our democracy.

I would not be surprised if I walked in and saw Emil Bove scooting his butt on the carpet
now THAT is some shade - I will remember and re-use!
👍🏽
Yeah, Mark Pocan is my representative.

We can't have anything nice anymore!

Here's the docket: https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/69609079/does-1-9-v-department-of-justice/
Musk reminds me of the Bugs Bunny cartoon with Marvin Martian.
Bugs: Eh, what's up doc?
Marvin: I'm solving the Earth's energy problem ...
Bugs: That's nice ...
Marvin: ... by exploding it.
Except Marvin was cute. Musk looks like the Stay Puffed Marshmallow Man got stuck to the bottom of a shoe.
Mush looks like melted marshmallows, and poo
Ew, yeah, we just picked up winter poo.
Musk looks like a guy at a buffet table who eats a piece of cheese, licks his fingers, picks up a breadstick, puts it back and heads for the cookies, ensuring that no one else will eat from that table.
Dismantling the FBI and Treasury? Al Capone could only dream of such power.
Nice Times Break, with my man, Charles Miller and WAR.
1970's East L.A. scenes are priceless.

*Now I kinda want to hit that Southern California Wonk-Up. I'm serious. Who's going??
You! Book your tickets!
It would be good for you
It so would. I'd want to use old friends for places to crash haha. And avoid old boyfriends. But I should. I need it. LA PLAYA. Real BAJA fish tacos. MUY BUENO.
DO IT
You can write it off your taxes as self-care!
And besides, Walter would want you to take care of yourself. I think this would be just the ticket don’t you?
🥰
One visit, "off season" I had Torrey Pines beach virtually all to myself, the whole thing, for a few miles. One dude, very Dude, in a lawn chair just in the water, with a fishing pole (????), lol. That was seriously therapeutic.
I love this song and remember cranking it up whilst cruising downtown in my MUCH younger days.
I remember rollerskating to it in junior high, lol!

I don’t imagine DC cops are in on it
They’re trying to blank out home rule too and that's their budget
But I'd bet money on crooked Secret Service. Remember all the ones deleting Jan 6 2021 messages who STILL refused to be interviewed by the Jan 6 Committee?
If he decides Medicaid payments to rural hospitals are wasteful or fraudulent, shit will get real in a hurry.
They need to be more than alarmed. They need to resist. Just say NO.
DOGE officials have also sought access to payment and contracting systems across the Department of Health and Human Services, which control hundreds of billions of dollars in payments to health-care providers, and they appear to have gained access to at least some of those systems, the people said.

Can we stop calling them “officials”? They are criminals.
Agreed. Call them minions, underlings, followers, thugs, or cultists.
Mandatory jail for Nazi salutes under new Australia laws:
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn8x98z0kvlo
Would be a clear cut 1A violation here, but on the other hand, fuck those Nazis.
BECAUSE NAZISM IS ILLEGAL IN EVERY WESTERN COUNTRY OTHER THAN THE UNITED STATES.
There's a reason for that.
And I've got three words for that supposedly sacrosanct 1A:
"compelling state interest".
It's not inviolate.
But it's clearer than ever that this country doesn't care enough about its citizens who are harmed by Nazism to change the f*cking law.
😤😠😡
I hate Illinois Nazis...and all the others too....
Can we trick Saint Elon into visiting Australia?
Aww, yeah!
Good.
I need a break from all this shitty news, so I'm going to sweat away my anger on my rowing machine while watching a Barbara Stanwyck biography. Peace out, my fellow resisters.
I love rowing machines!
Have fun. :)

Somebody who stops getting their checks could end up being the check. Informally.
Skum played the GOP like a cheap fiddle. And they still haven't caught on.
That needs to be pointed out to every Republican in Congress. Appeal to their own egos.
GOP: "He is mostly in line with our priorities, He just needs to infuse some more Christian Nationalism."
And here we thought Vladimir Putin was the real threat to American democracy.
Don’t musk and Putin talk on the phone a lot?
Yes. Musk is Prez. after all.
And Xi. That's where the Teslas are manufactured.
Tesla, whose sales are falling off a cliff in Europe.
Right. Asshole is just a dunderhead - I mean figurehead.
This is just TOO damned and dangerously accurate.
