Musk says his "mind is a storm" as he waves chainsaw on stage in bizarre CPAC appearance
For some incredibly odd and troubling reason, the world's richest man-toddler and famed ketamine popper Elon Musk was gifted a bejeweled chainsaw by far-right Argentinian President Javier Milei on stage at this year's CPAC gathering outside Washington, DC. Musk immediately began awkwardly waving the deadly power tool on stage before declaring "My mind is a storm." Someone please take that thing from him before he becomes a literal Texas chainsaw massacre.

VIDEO OF THE DAY: Trudeau humiliates Trump after Canada's hockey win over USA
Donald Trump hijacked last night's 4 Nations Face-Off hockey final before the game was played in a pathetic attempt to score more cheap political points in his mindnumbingly stupid, one-sided spat with Canada. When the final whistle was blown, Canada defeated the United States 3-2, prompting Prime Minister Trudeau to fire off a slapshot of a tweet: "You can't take our country — and you can't take our game."

Take Action: Defend the CFPB from Elon and his DOGE goons!

Progressives in Congress are our last line of defense
Pramila Jayapal for Congress: Rep. Pramila Jayapal is bringing the fight to Trump, DOGE, and their GOP cronies by obstructing their agenda and sounding the alarm to the American people. But she can't do it alone. Will you chip in to Rep. Jayapal's re-election campaign and make sure that we have a blue Congress in order to reverse all the damage done by Trump and Musk?

Trump administration’s mass firings could leave federal government with "monumental" bill, say experts
Hundreds of thousands of federal workers are being fired by Trump for nefarious "poor performance" claims, which in the majority of cases is clearly not true, opening the door for legal action by those whose lives have been needlessly upended by the MAGA cult leader's purge. While Phony Stark and his "DOGE" goon squad has been permitted by Trump to conduct a wide-ranging blitz across the federal government in the name of improving efficiency, US law isn't quite as malleable. Labor lawyer Suzanne Summerlin explained, "These firings they’re conducting without following the law will result in hundreds of thousands of former federal employees being owed back pay, plus interest, plus benefits, plus attorneys fees. When the bill comes it will be monumental." And who do you think will foot that bill? If you guessed American taxpayers, you are unfortunately correct.

Grimes forced to publicly beg for Elon Musk's attention over medical crisis for one of their children
In one of the saddest things you'll see today, pop star Grimes was forced to publicly beg for Elon's attention while their child was having a medical emergency. "Plz respond about our child's medical crisis. I am sorry to do this publicly but it is no longer an acceptable situation. This requires immediate attention...this is urgent, Elon." In another post she wrote, "I'm not giving any details but he won't respond to texts call or emails and has skipped every meeting and our child will suffer lifelong impairment if he doesn't respond asap. So I need him to f***ing respond and if I have to apply public pressure then I guess that's where we are at." It appears that her posts were later hidden by Twitter staff. At the time, Elon was incredibly busy uhhh....waving a chainsaw around at CPAC and proclaiming that he had "become meme" in an incredibly cringy interview that showcased his desperate, pathetic need for adulation. Father of the year, everyone!

Take Action: Tell your senators: Oppose Trump’s pick for EPA administrator!

Steve Bannon flashes casual Nazi salute at CPAC
The far right, populist Trump-whisperer may have openly suspicious and downright hostile views of oligarchs like Elon Musk, but he still clearly has a lot in common with Donald's favorite billionaire buddy, like, ya know, publicly throwing casual Sieg Heils to the delight of rabid MAGA cultists.

Trump devotee and far-right conspiracy theorist Kash Patel confirmed as FBI director by Senate
By a party-line vote of 51-49, the Federal Bureau of Investigation will now be run by a thoroughly unhinged conspiracy theorist who, when confronted with incontrovertible facts, simply digs further into the delusional. Patel will oversee more than 38,000 civil servants, of whom 13,000 are special agents, over a 10-year term that could well permanently re-define the agency. Brace yourselves for a return to J. Edgar Hoover-style paranoia and retribution, folks. It's gonna get nasty.

Elon Musk drops money bomb on critical state Supreme Court race
WisDems: There’s a must-win state Supreme Court election in Wisconsin on April 1st — and Elon Musk just dropped half a million dollars into attack ads in an attempt to steal back the court for Republicans and put anti-abortion extremist Brad Schimel into power. Wisconsin is one of the most important swing states in the country and the integrity of our future elections is at serious risk if the GOP retakes control of the state’s highest court. Will you make a donation to Wisconsin Democrats and help stop Elon from buying ANOTHER election with his dark money?

Angry constituents confront DOGE-backing GOP rep at chaotic town hall
GOP Rep. Rich McCormick got a less-than-warm reception from voters on Thursday as he faced anger and pushback over his support for the Trump administration’s cost-cutting crusade in the federal government. McCormick ― who reportedly spoke to "hundreds of critics" at the city hall building in Roswell, Georgia ― was met with boos and jeers as attendees questioned whether he was doing them a "disservice" by backing Elon Musk’s "DOGE"-fueled budget-slashing frenzy. While it's true that Trump and Musk are simply following through on their campaign vows to wreak maximum havoc, for a lot of folks it simply could not and would not sink in until actualized. May they please remember in the midterms and beyond...

Justice Department broadens Jan. 6 pardons to cover gun, drug-related charges
Trump's great white-washing of his failed insurrection continues, as the MAGA cult leader's sycophants at the DOJ have broadened Donald's blanket pardon to now include defendants' unrelated gun and drug charges. FBI searches executed during the sprawling investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021 attack turned up evidence of other crimes not directly connected to the Capitol breach. Immediately after Trump's pardons — which included defendants who violently assaulted police officers and those with long criminal records — the Department of Justice appeared to stand by the separate gun charges. That was then. For truly inexplicable reasons, federal prosecutors are now seeking to dismiss defendants' pending federal gun cases. Law and order, y'all!

House Republican says Trump’s executive orders are "getting out of control"
Current and soon-to-be-former GOP Rep. Troy Balderson of Ohio dared to publicly criticize the MAGA cult leader, calling out Trump's barrage of executive orders to usurp the authority of Congress. Speaking at a local business lunch in his home district on Thursday, Balderson stated the painfully obvious: Trump’s executive orders are "getting out of control." Stand by for the congressman's swift and unceremonious excommunication from Donald's GOP in 3, 2, 1...

National security adviser threatens Zelenskyy with ultimatum: Stop criticizing Trump and sign $500 billion mineral deal
One day after the MAGA cult leader laughably called President Volodymyr Zelenskyy a dictator and falsely claimed that Ukraine was responsible for Russia's brutal invasion, White House officials are threatening the Ukrainian leader to stop badmouthing Trump and to sign a deal handing over HALF of the country’s mineral wealth to the US, saying a failure to do so would be unacceptable. Folks, Donald's latest extortion act makes the $400 million quid pro quo fiasco in 2019 — which earned him his first impeachment — seem like child's play.
