I killed the fret... @cdatrish.bsky.social @chrisdownunder.bsky.social @everlily24.bsky.social @kevin-sweet.bsky.social @icelandgoddess.bsky.social @xitter-refugee.bsky.social @nikkigu.bsky.social @metalmofo666.bsky.social @janellebrown915.bsky.social @rktmn.bsky.social @zangerliberia.bsky.social

The Dept of Homeland Security has budgeted up to $200M to run anti-immigrant ads in the US & overseas that REPEATEDLY THANK TRUMP for leading an immigration crackdown. DHS Sec Kristi Noem said that these ads were Trump’s idea. 🔥NOT WASTEFUL AT ALL, RIGHT?!!🔥 www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

For those at the back…

Donald Trump promised to let Elon Musk self-police his conflicts of interest. The result? Those investigating his companies have been fired. Cases against his companies have been dismissed. The corrupt self-dealing is staggering.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

So let's get this straight: The U.S. and Elon are now extorting Ukraine and threatening to turn off their Starlink Internet access unless they give their critical rare earth minerals to the United States? Staggering levels of corruption.

Firing the senior JAGs is the same as firing the Inspectors General. They don't want anyone investigating illegal actions in civilian agencies or the military. They especially don't want someone independently prosecuting based on law and the constitution.

FOLLOWUP: SECDEF Hegseth also firing the CNO, the USAF Vice-Chief, and somewhat unusually and ominously to do in the same breath, the senior JAGs of the Army, Navy, and USAF

Here’s what is going on. When you start firing the military’s top lawyers, that means you are getting ready to order the military to do unlawful things. Trump replaces those JAGs with men who will justify any future unlawful and unethical actions that he wants the military to do.

So the President not only fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. He also fired the top JAGs at the Army, Navy and Air Force. Those are the lead people who determine what is a legal order and what is not. So if you're planning to do things that are illegal they're the most obvious obstacle.

If we have enough people with the knowledge and moral fortitude of Maine Governor Janet Mills, and the Associated Press- we might be able to save our Democracy

He nails it.

Neither Trump, Musk, Vance or any of Trump appointments have the deep experience & knowledge required to lead America They don’t know or care about consequences. Its chaos. Also, we have a president and others with questionable loyalties. Its Russia first. Putin puppets.

I BELIEVE IT. THIS IS WHY WE ARE SPEAKING OUT. WE MUST. THE TIME IS NOW. THIS IS 1938 REDUX.

Trump and Musk are dismantling the government. They aren't eliminating waste and fraud for the American people. They're eliminating officials and evidence from multiple investigations that were being conducted before the election that could be used against them.

Trump launches federal investigation into Maine hours after the Maine Governor stood her ground against his bullying.

And another thing...
