Judges won't save us. Law enforcement won't save us. Democrats won't save us. We're in it now, folks. One thing we have going for us is that we're the majority. It'll be up to the people to organize and unite and speak up.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

"No Democrat should be voting to advance Trump's nominees while all of this stuff is going on," AOC said. “There has to be a political price to pay and we have a responsibility as a party to block everything that is happening while they're setting a literal mash to the federal government."

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
