She absolutely does. She is using this language to appease Trump and excite maga. Things happen so fast, this will be water under the bridge with the next round of EOs.

Denver Public Schools sues DHS over policy allowing ICE in schools #Trump

The State Department's "procurement forecast for 2025, which details purchases the agency expects to make, includes $400 million for armored Tesla vehicles."

Elon Musk to reporter: “We post our actions to the DOGE website. All of our actions are maximally transparent. I don’t know of a case where an organization has been more transparent than the DOGE organization.” Here’s the doge.gov website IN ITS ENTIRETY. It’s literally a blank page!

What the actual *?! The White House has designated Mr. Musk’s office, the United States DOGE Service, as an entity protected from public records requests and most judicial intervention until at least 2034, by classifying its documents as presidential records.

White House defying court orders, persisting with illegal action, and usurping Congress’ power of the purse, which would effectively end checks and balances. If that’s not a Constitutional crisis, what is? Sorry, media, but like climate change, Constitutional crisis is out of “some say” territory.

My senator seems like the only member of his chamber who is expressing the alarm and outrage that this moment requires (and doing a great job on Insta, also). Where is everyone else???

Great point.

CDC funding delays under Trump affect rape crisis centers : Shots - Health News www.npr.org/sections/sho...

Trump revoked Biden’s Security Clearance. Why? Because Biden did it to him. This is pure petty revenge. Ew. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Not so brilliant.

This is the real reason why Trump said he wants the U.S. to take over Gaza.

If one's looking at the state level, looks like Trump's damaging the swing states of MI & WI for Vance in 2028 when it comes to marriage rates. www.cdc.gov/nchs/pressro...

The competent leadership of the Biden Administration was too boring for the media. So they ignored Biden's accomplishments, and normalized Trump's crimes and pathologies. Fascist chaos and cruelty are great for ratings and revenue. Bravo guys, you did it. @nytimes @washingtonpost

One thing Trump and to my surprise, many of my American friends don't seem to understand is how currency works between countries. Right now, US$1 = CA$1.40. That means the US $ buys more in Canada than the CA $ buys in the US. However, that ONLY affects imports. People in a country... 1/6

Windfall taxes...? or Windmills...? I mean, it's an easy mistake for the incoming President if the United States to make, publically commenting on British affairs from the comfort of his current social media platform of choice. #DonaldTrump #POTUS47 #Dumb&Dumber

The world's richest man managed to take $190 million away from a *child cancer research center* with his posts yesterday. Funding now stripped in the new bill.

A key asymmetry of this era of American politics and how it’s covered is that Trump is expected to do bad and corrupt things, so when he does it barely qualifies as news. But Dems are expected to be beyond reproach, so anything that seems even slightly suspect is a huge scandal.

Just a reminder that there’s an app available for your TV called PBS RETRO where you can watch all sorts of wonderful old pbs shows like Mr. Rogers and Reading Rainbow, you know, in case you might need that sort of energy right now

Gaetz is out

Lee: When Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was up for confirmation or when VP Harris was added to the ticket, they called them DEI hires. They want you to believe that Harvard graduate with over 20 years of experience is not qualified but Fox personality is qualified to run the DOD

it’s official: the trump administration is turning into a reality show we all want to turn off, but can’t.

All churches should be taxed. Repost if you agree.

Leave it to Jon Stewart 💥 Mika Brzezinski: “Joe and I went to Mar-a-Lago to meet personally with President-elect Trump. And for those asking, why would we speak to the president-elect during such fraught times… I would ask back, why wouldn’t we?” Jon Stewart: “Because you said he was Hitler!”

So did all these news orgs just schedule these pieces for *after* the election or what
