Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Chief of Naval Operations Vice Chief of Staff for the Air Force The Coast Guard Commandant And is looking to replace the Judge Advocates General for the Army, Navy and Air Force Will anyone stop him if he tries to use the military against US citizens

When you fire the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs-who’s Black Replacing him with an unqualified white man Then ax the Chief of Naval Operations-who’s a woman-saying she’s a DEI hire After you fired a female Coast Guard Commandant Your racism and misogyny seem pretty clear apnews.com/article/trum...

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

A Manhattan federal judge on Friday banned Elon Musk’s team from regaining access to the U.S. Treasury Department’s most sensitive payment and data systems until the conclusion of a lawsuit that claims the group’s access is unlawful.

RE: Trump’s Firing of Air Force General C.Q. Brown as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff As commander-in-chief, Trump’s powers to fire or punish military officers are LIMITED BY LAW. www.brookings.edu/articles/doe...

Democrats should go to all these ruby red and vulnerable GOP districts where voters are upset at Trump and Musk and court them. Full court press.

📌It’s about time ALL our retired military flag officers started showing some damn leadership by speaking out against this authoritarian attack on our nation. You know damn well that what is happening right now is WRONG.

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.

If this happened in a foreign country we’d call it a purge

What in the world is the point of having qualifications if they can just be ignored by a corrupt commander in chief

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

📚 WATCH: “I can’t do much, but I can do this.” As Rutherford County and other districts ban hundreds of books, a SMYRNA book store owner is offering banned books for free. #BannedBooksBrigade Full: www.newschannel5.com/news/how-one...

To Governor Mills and the state of Maine Thank you for reminding us That in America We fight for people who are unjustly ostracized We follow the rule of law We stand up to bullies We damn sure aren’t ruled by a king AND WE DO NOT BEND THE KNEE TO WANNABE TYRANTS EVER

New in PN: AOC shows how to fight back and stand strong "Prominent figures standing up can undermine the climate of fear that MAGA relies on to impose terror. AOC’s work on behalf of her constituents and refusal to be intimidated are models of resistance other Democrats would do well to imitate."

MASSIVE human rights abuses will come to light from Donald Trump's inhumane immigration policies. davisvanguard.org/2025/02/surv...

Medicare is set to roll back telehealth coverage, putting millions—especially seniors & disabled Americans—at risk of losing critical care. Use my free, prewritten letter via Resistbot to demand Congress take action now! It’s fast, easy, and vital. Send it here: resist.bot/petitions/PB...

Medicaid is NOT just a safety net, it's a HUMAN RIGHT! 80 million Americans, including kids, moms, seniors, people of color, rural Americans, and people with disabilities COUNT ON IT TO SURVIVE. Republicans want to CUT IT OFF AT THE KNEES? #DontCutMyMedicaid or anything else!!!

The GOP Tax Scam’s “golden age” means the sick go untreated, the hungry go unfed—while the billionaires who sat front row at Trump’s inauguration get richer. This isn’t trickle-down—it’s a shakedown. We fight for people, not profit. #DontCutMyMedicaid

This is getting too close to home and will definitely hurt my family!!! #DontCutMyMedicaid 🤬🤬🤬

The felon promised he wouldn’t touch Medicaid. He lied. 🤥 Now, his reckless cuts put millions at risk. **2 out of every 5 births** in this country are covered by Medicaid—this is about life, health, and families. We can’t afford these attacks. #DontCutMyMedicaid

IF THINGS WERE THIS BAD FOR RURAL HOSPITALS IN 2023 FOR THOSE STATES THAT DID NOT EXPAND MEDICAID, HOW MUCH WORSE WILL IT BE IF MEDICAID IS ERADICATED??? #DemCast #IndivisibleIllinois #Indivisible www.kff.org/health-costs...

A lot of us know and love someone with breast cancer. A lot of us have had breast cancer! So when Republicans cut Medicaid and breast cancer treatment, they’re hurting you or someone you love. That could be a death sentence—all so Republicans can fatten their wallets. #DontCutMyMedicaid

fotus promised he wouldn't touch Medicaid. He lied. (Are you surprised???) 2 out of every 5 births in this country are covered by Medicaid.... These people are evil. #DontCutMyMedicaid

The GOP Tax Scam is here. MAGA is stealing 880 BILLION away from healthcare - (that's 92 million people) so that the wealthy can buy some more yachts.... #DontCutMyMedicaid

Justifying tax cuts for the rich on the backs of the working class is a betrayal at its worst. All part of the GOP Tax Scam. Don't Cut My Medicaid

The GOP Tax Scam is in full swing. MAGA is siphoning $880 BILLION from healthcare—ripping coverage from 92 million people—just to fund more yachts for the ultra-rich. #DontCutMyMedicaid

WATCH Bernie Sanders lay out exactly what's at stake if Republicans gut Medicaid. Don't Cut My Medicaid

This will affect people on Medicaid, but also many others like people who rely on community health centers. Don’t cut my Medicaid

Recuerde que tiene DERECHOS bajo la CONSTITUCIÓN

Brad Schimel has spent his career as an extreme right-wing politician. As WI’s worst AG, he used his power to force his own dangerous agenda on Wisconsin, including fighting against reproductive freedom & access to contraception. There are options! VOTE FOR Susan Crawford, Wisconsin!

The GOP Tax Scam’s version of a “golden age” in America: the sick and hungry suffer while the billionaires who sat front row at his inauguration reap the rewards. Don't Cut My Medicaid

Spot the difference? Republicans want to take away healthcare from kids, seniors & people with disabilities to fund tax cuts for BILLIONAIRES. Democrats are working tirelessly to STRENGTHEN MEDICAID and ensure EVERYONE has access to HEALTHCARE! Don't Cut My Medicaid

Trump Lied! He promised not to touch Medicaid. 2 out of every 5 births in this country are covered by Medicaid. Women and babies will be at risk! Don't Cut My Medicaid

This event is heating up. 🔥🔥🔥Tomorrow on Fort Lauderdale at Tesla in federal highway. Be there if you can. Share and tell your friends 💙💙💪🏽 mobilize.us/s/uIpAg8

Elon Musk and the ultra-rich don’t need more tax breaks—especially at the expense of your healthcare. Slashing Medicaid to fund handouts for billionaires is a betrayal at its worst. It’s all part of the GOP Tax Scam.

🚨🚨🚨 Join our DIGITAL RALLY now! The Republican war on health care is alive and well. Republicans have one goal in mind: rip away coverage for millions in order to provide tax breaks for their billionaire friends. Don't Cut My Medicaid.

#ProudBlue #BlueSkyResistance I’m reading “A People’s History of the United States” by Howard Zinn. I’m only one chapter in & I’m already horrified. The brutality of Christopher Columbus & the explorers is unimaginable. We STOLE this land & TORTURED the natives to take what wasn’t ours.

#ProudBlue #BlueSkyResistance #DemocracyWarriors Great news. The Supreme Court upheld the pause on firing the lead watchdog, Hampton Dellinger. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

Kudlow of Fox Business admits we will be experiencing “slower growth, higher inflation, not good” But the Felon is too focused on a new plane to care. #ProudBlue

#ProudBlue #BlueSkyResistance MORE GOOD NEWS! At least temporarily 👏👏👏 A federal judge on Friday blocked a sweeping executive order from President Donald Trump that sought to end government support for programs promoting diversity, equity and inclusion. apnews.com/article/dei-...
