Firing all of the JAGs (Judge Advocates General)—the top lawyers in each service branch—is just as bad as, if not worse than, firing (most of) the Joint Chiefs.

Guessing immigration court will be a thing of the past. A hallmark of the DOGE litigation so far is that most of the judges aren't addressing the threshold issue of whether, apart from the out-of-nowhere materializing of it, the exec branch can just end congressionally created parts of the gov't.

This judge is a Trump appointee, tho not one of the worst. But I don't get why these cases aren't being litigated on the threshold issue of whether a president has the authority to kill a congressionally established federal agency. Some finally are. Why not this one? www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

This is a shameful way to treat our fellow citizens who are public servants. This doesn’t make America great.

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...

1/ For years, the American Right has claimed patriotic symbols—the flag, the cowboy, the anthem—as their own. But something’s changing. This Presidents’ Day, protesters filled the streets, flags in hand. At the Grammys, a pink pony galloped across the stage. 🧵

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.
