It is already here” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

So the President not only fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. He also fired the top JAGs at the Army, Navy and Air Force. Those are the lead people who determine what is a legal order and what is not. So if you're planning to do things that are illegal they're the most obvious obstacle.

Note the softer language adopted by Reporting Scotland compared to the more accurate language used by STV News to describe Anas Sarwar's GRR U-turn. More evidence that BBC Scotland is protecting Sarwar, not just from broken pledges but this time from legislation he supported. (MSM Monitor)

Patel’s First Move at FBI? Empty the 7th Floor. Before Patel even stepped into FBI HQ, support staff were told to clear out. The director’s suite was sealed. No transparency, no communication—just a reset. His first priority? Loyalty over experience. FBI employees got the message loud and clear.

"We [the Executive Branch] are the federal law" is a dark horse candidate for most Hitlerian Trump quote from 2025. Surprised this did not get even more media coverage and provoke even more outrage. The literal, actual truth, of course, is that the federal government has three co-equal branches.

I think we can all agree that government “business as usual” is on hiatus. So, time for Plan B. The opposition leader is Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee in 2024. VP Harris, appoint your shadow cabinet secretaries, and ask each of them to issue an alternative policy report every week. 1/2

Trump was willing to stand up there for a few minutes to pretend to care about black history, but hugging the guy was a deal breaker.

Despite President Musk’s insidious efforts to decimate the democracy while trying to masquerade it as a cost-cutting exercise, so far his benefactor Trump has been spared from the power saw. The Independent reports that, after 4 weeks in office, Trump has already spent $10.7 million on golf trips.
