The window to take this administration out by military means is rapidly dissolving. This move by the administration is a clear signal they intend to neutralize that threat. Quit playing around military leaders!

They also fired Admiral Lisa Franchetti (Chief of Naval Operations) the first Woman to lead the Navy and first Woman to serve on the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
AND don’t forget, they also fired Admiral Linda Fagan, the first Woman Commandant of the Coast Guard.
This is also a War on Women.

If all Dems relocated to a Capitol in the center of the US (DC as Capitol was a historic relic from the 13 colonies days) and connected virtually for safety reasons (A sitting representatives home was invaded and her husband attacked brutally) that might help too. /5

Also, some State leaders should seek to connect with Allies close & further. The U.S. wouldn’t have come to be without help from France in late 18th century. /4

He fired the Chief of Naval Operations too, who is a woman. His administration is politicizing the military, which is supposed to be a non partisan, non political entity. As a retired veteran, this is terrible.

He will certainly try, and there may be enough soldiers that after being fed a solid fox diet in the military that might go along with it.

For sure Organic does not mean safe. It may just mean they’ve followed protocols about a specific set of pesticides, but they might not be doing safe farming. So wash/cook all fruit/veg organic or not.

Meanwhile, States should take advantage of the federal talent & form coalitions, hire the Jags, get rid of the Sherrifs & LEOs that are violent red hat magats, put them in a bus to Mar a Lago. Perhaps make a new Capitol in Minneapolis or Denver/Chicago. /3

In the US Civil Rights movement, and when Mandela took charge after Prison of Anti apartheid movement, many young Black people left school & chanted & danced in the streets, coalition built with Labor & other groups that supported. In India recently th farmers mass protested for a year & succeeded/2

Mass peaceful protest, by younger healthier people- the higher the numbers, for a long time. It would take great sacrifice, as some will be arrested, maybe beaten- and many will lose work- and sadly in US works tied to Health insurance, so younger healthier folks must step up. Long term. It helped/1

Putin recruited Trump in 1987. This is a horse of a different color.

Trump will continue the purge.
"A great purge is necessary to cleanse the government of those who sabotage progress"

"We don’t want generals who are too good at their jobs. We want generals who are loyal."

"I need the kind of generals that Hitler had." - Trump

Not surprising that he chooses to do this during a Friday night news dump. This shit by itself is a five-alarm fire.

So this makes it pretty much complete right? There’s no one anywhere, in any branch of government, in any part of his cabinet that will say no to him. We’ve been saying for years he was gonna do it, and now he has what he wants. 🤬

If Trump can do it, we can (and must) do it. Those are the rules.
We need to be a mirror, but also recognize that the people the federal government is shedding are the people we need to immediately bring into state service.

Every state is different, but we must mirror the Trump administration.
Declare states of emergency. Bring all state institutions into political alignment (beware of Sheriffs and other LEOs).
Get all of the blue state governors into a zoom call and start matching the administration step for step.

Awww. I totally understand how that was stressful. The kitty babies do such silly things- I was stressed when mine were younger- sigh. 😄

This is why there was a McDonalds outbreak, it was the onions on the burgers- that someone else in a McDs industrial food prep prepared, but can happen in small & medium kitchens. When business owners don’t put effort into Hygiene to mitigate, there will be issues

Cooked well. Enhance & increase inspections in restaurants, helps keep standards on people’s minds. Heat processes are good mitigation. /2
