Donald Trump replacing a black four-star general with a white three-star general as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is everything MAGA claims they hate about DEI: giving a less qualified person the job based on their race, not their resume.

If members of Congress—like Rep. Grothman —are this clueless about what the man who is dismantling our government is saying and promising, they don’t deserve to keep their jobs! This woman is in his face, begging him to wake TF up—and he just walks off. Pathetic.

The Trump administration is canceling presentations including book talks on important civil rights issues at the Carter Center & possibly elsewhere. Let’s celebrate these authors by buying & reading their books. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/a...

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.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Crockett: He went from being the dork that was jumping around on stage to allegedly being this amazing genius that's gonna save a country he wasn't born in, and one that maybe he doesn't agree w/the idea of a democratic republic, considering the fact he may have been more on the side of apartheid.

When will people realize that GOPers want destruction of democracy and freedoms taken from all except themselves? Bill Cassidy who’s a “physician” voted for an anti-vaxxer and now he’ll vote for Kash Patel to destroy the same FBI he pretends to respect. Never trust a republican.

For the last two days, Sean Duffy has been blaming Pete Buttigieg, Joe Biden, the Democrats, and anyone else he can think of for the fact that under HIS watch, planes are crashing on a near-daily basis. Maybe fewer joyrides to the Daytona 500 and a little more attention paid to transportation.

I'm genuinely sorry for your personal loss. But not for our nation's loss. Your brother was a toxic, lying influence that instrumentally contributed to the current environment of hate, division, and disinformation. We are all better without him. Bye, girl!

On the long list of shameful and personally revealing things Trump is doing, pressuring Romania to release the rapist sex trafficker Andrew Tate is certainly up there. Trump relates more to a criminal like him than he does our European allies, and making him an international embarrassment.

Just remember, the time between an apparent decisive victory (the destruction of the first Death Star) & an actual decisive victory (the destruction of the second Death Star) was 4 years, during which most of the time life sucked for everyone because the Empire was striking back all over the place.
