So the White House story is now: “We didn’t mean to threaten Harvard, because we didn’t mean to send the threatening letter we sent, but when Harvard rejected the threats we made but didn’t mean to make, we decided to threaten them twice more.” The country is now run by thugs and idiots.

Today, I am calling on Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and other top officials in the Trump administration to resign immediately due to their reckless and unlawful disclosure of national security secrets. Their actions have put our country at risk, and immediate accountability is necessary

They want to cut USPS - so they can own it. They want to cut Amtrak - so they can own it. They want to cut Social Security - so they can force you to use private financial firms more. They want to cut Medicare and the VA - so they can force you to use private healthcare more.
