If the workers of the world want to win, all they have to do is recognize their own solidarity. They have nothing to do but fold their arms and the world will stop. The workers are more powerful with their hands in their pockets than all the property of the capitalists. --Joe Ettor (IWW labor organizer) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IASdERt3-m0

From a sick POV, it is somewhat amusing to watch the "mean girls" feud between Trump and Musk. Of course the world is too small to contain those huge egos so it was predictable that there would be a break up sooner or later. Krugman is right here, Musk is the vulnerable one in the relationship. While the phenomenon of Trumpian vengeance is a growing menace that leaves everyone in jeopardy, it is hard to have sympathy for Musk who had a direct hand in creating the Fascist monster than is preparing to bite back.
Meanwhile CBS has joined the growing list of entitities that have caved to extortion by the Fascist.
... and the beat goes on.... as we watch in horror

Ignore Musk, Pay Attention to Russell Vought

(Two articles today about how Musk's DOGE both FAILED to deliver savings in "waste fraud and abuse" and at the same time is succeeding in stealing our data for the purpose of using it for Musk's AI, and other aspects of Musk's unchecked power and corruption as he insinuates his way into our government and lives - without our consent. Truly disheartening and terrifying, NB)
