Too fucking true. Way too fucking true…
Fucking great. On the federal and state level, it’s gotten more difficult to even file class-action lawsuits. Cancer rates drastically increase in an area where regs were pulled on the affected area’s water supply? A shorter life and defendents’ long-game bullshit stalling and right-wing courts to look forward to.
People so sick that they can’t afford their medical bills aren’t buying Cybertrucks or paying for $250/month space internet, so what’s the point?
Unplanned (or planned) obsolescence. Either way, Musk smiles and continues to enjoy Vandenberg’s launch facility.
The Italian government is considering…
Get ready to follow the money.
DOGE Staffer Resigns Over Racist Posts
Employee has links to a deleted social-media account that advocated for racism and eugenics

archive.ph isn’t working for a non-paywalled version. Anyone know of another route?
I don’t, but here’s reporting from another site:
DOGE’s other staffers also include interns at his companies and a young man who goes by “Big Balls” online — so who knows what other juicy details will soon come to light about Musk’s other bratty minions.
Stayed tune, I guess!
Quotes:
Elez was behind a deleted profile that backed a “eugenic immigration policy” and argued that “you could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity.”
…
“99 percent of Indian H1B [visas] will be replaced by slightly smarter [large language models], they’re going back don’t worry guys.”
…
“Just for the record, I was racist before it was cool,”
…
All we can do at this point is speculate, but it’s certainly a noteworthy departure. Elez had obtained direct access to the entire government’s payment system. As Wired reported earlier this week, Elez also gave himself both read and write privileges, allowing him to push untested changes to the payment system.
The staffer who resigned was embedded at the Treasury Department to carry out efficiency measures.
No. No he wasn’t. Stop taking them at their word. Those aren’t efficiency measures
One of the many reasons why Musk despises regs, laws, and rules. Who knows how far the British can stick their big British fist into Musk’s face on this one; per wiki, the UK is responsible for the islands’ defense and international affairs.
I doubt Musk’s lieutenants are as physically well protected as he is. Just an observation, Universe.
Quick look indicates that his surname is of Croatian ethnicity.
I’m guessing his family was all in on the Croatian fascist ideology that drove lots of the Croatian side of the ethnic cleansing in Bosnia… I bet his family are from Bosnia, in fact. Stupid fucking asshole.
