OPINION | Snap out of it America. All the warning lights are flashing, writes @djrothkopf.bsky.social.

Chuck Todd makes it official and announces that he's leaving NBC News after nearly two decades at the network. "We can’t tolerate propagandists. But it doesn’t mean sticking your head in the sand either; if you ignore reality, you’ll miss the biggest story." www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

“The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has been on record against the tariffs since November… warning they “would not solve our border problems, and instead would send prices soaring, costing the typical American family more than $1,000, with significant harm to U.S. manufacturers, farmers, and ranchers.”

The head of the FAA, Mike Whitaker, resigned on January 20 — one year into his 5 year term — after facing relentless criticism from Musk for not approving SpaceX missions quickly enough. The Senate confirmed him unanimously in 2023. No acting FAA head has been appointed.

The Federal Aviation Administration’s leader stepped down on Jan. 20, months after Elon Musk demanded that he quit. The move by Michael Whitaker means the FAA has no Senate-confirmed leader for one of the biggest crises in its history because he quit before Donald Trump took office.

Gosh, I remember when we had an actual president instead of a loudmouth bully who won't take responsibility for his actions.

A mere 6 days after Felon 47 and the Republicans attack the FAA with their right-wing Christian culture war, tragedy strikes. Bravo, Americans who voted for Dump or didn’t vote at all. www.nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/...

FAA says a military helicopter collided with the American Airlines passenger jet from Wichita near DCA. There must be immediate hearings on how the federal government/Department of Defense allowed this to happen and if removal of safety protocols and recent personnel changes led to this incident.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

So far the war on so-called "DEI" - has come for - women at the CIA who want to get together and celebrate women spies - people at the Defense Intelligence Agency who want to observe...Holocaust Remembrance Day. - apparently, any federal celebration of...Black History Month.

I told you! Broke the news about Gitmo being used for immigrants with exclusive audio from DeSantis I published an hour before this broke. (Tik Tok link)
