It wasn’t an insurrection. It was a peaceful protest. It wasn’t a Nazi salute. It was a Roman salute. It wasn’t a Nazi salute. It was a wave. It wasn’t a real post about being a dictator or king. It was joke. The frogs don’t realize the water is already boiling.

I fear that this is just a prelude to further purges, the installation of yes men (pun intended), and the introduction of loyalty oaths. These are the steps that destroy professionalism and make the use of violence to restore "domestic order" thinkable --- and more likely.

“Democracy is not a state. It is an act, and each generation must do its part.”

Holy crap. At his town hall last night, Rep. Rich McCormick compared *his own constituents* who asked him tough and fair questions to January 6 insurrectionists

Please, please, please pay attention to this. A Republican Rep getting booed by his Republican constituents bcuz he supports what Musk/Trump are doing. And these are Republican voters who are not happy with what Musk/Trump are doing. Pay attention. This is just the beginning.👇

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

Trump is coming for Social Security! On Tuesday and Wednesday, Trump LIED saying nearly 20 million dead people are receiving Social Security. Trump/Musk are repeating this LIE to justify massive cuts to SS. Dems need to step up now! My article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/twice-this...

Incredible. Rail fans at LA Union Station heckle and boo Duffy’s remarks at the press conference where he has announced an FRA investigation into CA High Speed Rail. They yell “Cowards!” “Build the Rail!” and “We Pay Taxes, We Want the Train!” #IWillRide

It’s not a coincidence—it’s a warning.

Dark Pence is back.

The US Fish and Wildlife Service, the nation’s only government agency dedicated to conserving plants and animals, has frozen its vast portfolio of international conservation grants, jeopardizing imperiled sea turtles in Central America to elephants in Africa. from @vox.com via @climatedesk.org

The Trump regime has signed the Lavrov-Rubiotrop agreement with the Putin regime. Russia and the United States met in Saudi Arabia to discuss their plot to defeat Ukraine and plunder the resources under the guide of a 'peace agreement' that Ukraine and Europe were excluded from. #StandWithUkraine

🎁 ARTICLE U.S. weighs destroying $500M in stockpiled covid tests The govt is reviewing proposals to shut down the program that ships free covid tests to American households & is considering DESTROYING 160M tests. Only a fraction are expired. How is this not WASTEFUL? Where's DOGE? wapo.st/42VLGQh

Omg...Congress and the judiciary would like to have a word!🤬🤬🤬🤬

Five employees at the JFK Library in Boston were laid off today in connection with a Trump administration overhaul of federal workers. "Without them, we are unable to stay open," a source tells @gbhnews.bsky.social. "It has been chaotic and we are seeking clarity."

NEW: A D.C. federal judge denied University of California students' request to temporarily block DOGE from accessing student loan data, ruling they failed to show sufficient evidence for immediate relief. Litigation will continue.

If a Dem president was at a car race the day after a major national disaster had 3 states underwater with fatalities, most of the posts on X tonight would be trashing that president. But whether bad or good, Dems politicians don’t seem to like to play that game. But it is effective.

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

Under Trump our ONLY “ally” will be Russia. NATO will find a new world leader, and would NOT come to our aid if we were attacked. Hegseth doesn’t know how to stop drinking, let alone stop an incoming nuclear warhead.

The greatest business battle EVER to be fought will come when President Elon starts trying to implement AI for federal processes. The battle will be fought over which company’s AI will be used by the feds. This is a zero sum battle that will create more chaos than this country has ever seen

Trump says he wants Education Department to be closed immediately www.reuters.com/world/us/tru... WT

silicon valley is going to destroy america

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

A fun thing to do with this supposed Napoleon quote is to do a google search to see what forums it appeared on with this exact wording before 2022. I'm no computer whiz, so maybe I messed up, but the only hits I got were these two...for Stormfront, a neo-Nazi forum.

The DOGE website is reportedly hosted on non-government servers, not secured against database attacks and can be easily defaced, 404 reports www.404media.co/anyone-can-p...

No foreign country in its right mind will share sensitive intelligence with Tulsi Gabbard. We are now a country that's flying blind in a dangerous world.
