I know there's a lot going on right now but, uh, I hope nobody is too attached to the US Aid To Navigation buoy system. Apparently Coast Guard buoy tenders are being sent to the border, where they have no training or equipment to help that mission. Remember this when ships start running around!

Lest you believe this is about the elite ivies, $20 million dollars in federal grants and funding have been cut across UC Irvine. This is about attacking economic mobility, destroying free thought, & creating fungible, powerless workers for the oligarchic bosses. Our kids’ futures are at risk.

Dihydrogen monoxide will kill you if you inhale it. POTUS should ban it to keep us safe!! People have been trying to ban it since the 1990s at least, but since Trump is the best president ever, I bet he can succeed where others have failed. #SoSad #InTheNameOfNationalSecurityAmen

When I was young, there were <1,000 bald eagles in the lower 48 due to DDT, hunting, and habitat loss, and we never saw one the whole time roaming the prairies and mountains of SD. Today, there are 70,000+ and I see them daily. Governments can and should effect positive change.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

On April 14, 1865, President Abraham Lincoln was assassinated—just days after the Civil War ended. His death was a political act of vengeance for the fall of the Confederacy and a violent response to the abolition of slavery. 128 days to Slavery Remembrance Day. #CountDowntoSRD

There will be no restoration of a constitutional republic until he is not only removed from power but repudiated as having never legitimately held it. The system simply can't fit back together again without that. You can't shatter the foundation to this degree and then try to rebuild on top of it.
