  • Elon Musk, the spear tip of Trump's "cost cutting" spree, demanded that he quit. It's a truism that it's bad form to politicize a tragedy, and Democrats have often abided that concept. Not surprisingly,

The article from Slate discusses a series of unrelated events that have been humorously linked together by internet users. It begins with a plane crash in Russia, where a private jet crashed, killing all ten people on board, including Yevgeny Prigozhin, a notable figure linked to the Wagner Group. This event, while tragic, was juxtaposed with a press conference by Donald Trump, where he made various claims and comments, including his views on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives. The article then shifts to a figure skating event at the DCA (District of Columbia Armory), where a skater's performance was critiqued, leading to discussions about the intersection of sports, politics, and cultural commentary. The piece uses these disparate events to illustrate how the internet often connects unrelated news in a satirical or ironic manner, highlighting the absurdity and the rapid, often superficial, consumption of news in the digital age.
