@NewsHour Oh look at the conservatives pretending they didn't see it.

Billionaire Elon Musk gave what appeared to be a fascist salute Monday while making a speech at the post-inauguration celebration for President Donald Trump at the Capital One Arena. “Some elections are important, some are not. But this one, this one really mattered and I just want to say thank you for making it happen,” Musk said before putting his hand on his chest and then raising it in a salute that appeared similar to the “Sieg Heil” used by Nazis at their victory rallies. “It is thanks to you that the future of civilization is assured," Musk said. Trump named Musk and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy to lead the "Department of Government Efficiency," an outside commission aimed at identifying federal programs and spending to cut. After Trump was sworn in, multiple lawsuits were filed against the Trump administration claiming that the move violates federal transparency laws.

Fishy AF or not? 🤔

I'm glad he pardoned him. Fuck the haters.

@CityJournal @neetu_arnold Equity includes things like permitting employees to join labor unions. Of course City Journal hates that.

An investigation of Department of Education grants reveals that its administrators prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion when evaluating applications. cityjourn.al/4g4uzPC via @neetu_arnold

@AZtruthbomb @CityJournal @neetu_arnold Lol, you hate cancer research. Great perspective.

@CityJournal @neetu_arnold NO MORE GOVT GRANTS...PERIOD!

True Story...

@CBSNews These people also believe he's cutting energy bills in half.

Some voters are hoping President-elect Donald Trump may send out another stimulus check. Experts say the likelihood of this is extremely slim. cbsn.ws/4hZrqlH

@atrupar He should have committed

"Uncommitted" Michigan delegate on CNN pleads with President Biden to do something about Netanyahu before Trump and Mike Huckabee complete an "ethnic cleansing campaign" of the West Bank and southern Lebanon

@CaitlinPacific Wow so insightful

The morning after Pearl Harbor, my father joined every other man at Amherst College and walked into town to enlisted. I once asked him what he'd done next. He looked at me in mild confusion: "I went to class" That's what we'll do Wednesday - we'll go to class.

@ShawnReynolds_ @JoshMankiewicz A student journalist broke the story because professional journalists are too busy doing horse race shit and never even talk about CHIPS.

A student journalist broke one of the biggest stories in the final days of the presidential election

@JohnnieM What did he say about Liz Cheney today?

President Trump went to Dearborn & received a warm welcome from the city’s Arab community.

Trump's "secret plan" with Mike Johnson to steal the election is more devious than you probably think. It's not just electing Trump via the House. It's decreasing the overall number of electoral votes until Trump wins a majority. I explain in @thenation: thenation.com/article/politi…

@kateshellnutt "Both sides should not have had a racist comedian at the Trump rally. What were both sides thinking when they booked him at this Republican event?"

A Hispanic evangelical who had served as a Trump faith advisor said the rally remarks about Puerto Ricans made him "cringe" and "I wish the mud slinging would stop on both sides … none of this is productive." religionnews.com/2024/10/28/rac…

@jaketapper Ah yes, nothing like "go ahead and protest but please don't inconvenience anyone." Always great advice.

Canceling a newspaper subscription helps politicians who don’t want oversight, does nothing to hurt the billionaires who own the newspapers and make decisions with which you may disagree, and will result in fewer journalists trying to hold the powerful to account.

Historians: He’s a fascist. Political scientists: He’s a fascist. His own aides: He’s a fascist. The Washington Post: We don't take sides.

This is so sad.

@kenblackwell What did you do on election night 2004, Ken?
