four votes for “the president is a king and the framers created a monarchy”

Fun fact about Trump tariffs you won’t see in 99% of the reporting: Trump tariffs are illegal. Congress controls tariffs just like tax rates. President can change a tariff only for national security emergency, meaning war.

By order of Hegseth: “Kristen Geist, the first woman to graduate from the Army's grueling Ranger School, has been erased from some of the service's social media and its publicly accessible media database, the Defense Visual Information Distribution Service, or DVIDS.”

Hegseth drives out another #DEI hire. Certainly unqualified with only decades of experience and so few degrees: Doctor of Medicine, Master of Public Health, Master of Science, and a BS from West Point along with graduating from the Army Command & Staff College. thehill.com/policy/defen...

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

When the human form of political chlamydia calls you “parasite,” it’s extra special.

Clark Reynolds, 3, looks up at President Obama during a Black History Month reception at the White House on this day in 2016. Clark is now 12, a 7th grader in Washington, D.C. His mom reports that “…Clark is constantly learning the importance of character, decency and humanity.”

On the long list of shameful and personally revealing things Trump is doing, pressuring Romania to release the rapist sex trafficker Andrew Tate is certainly up there. Trump relates more to a criminal like him than he does our European allies, and making him an international embarrassment.

Apparently Pete Hegseth is claiming vindictive prosecution of the Biden admin because they asked him to pay his back taxes. Are there any decent, law abiding people working for Trump? No wonder they all assume everyone else is cheating.🤷‍♀️

As @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social said: Mike Johnson leads an NPC — Non Player Congress

Every accusation is a confession with these dopes. In this case, calling someone obviously brilliant dumb.

Interesting data in light of current events. More about welfare queen Elon Musk: www.profgalloway.com/elon-musk-we...

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Government spending is the reason you know who Elon Musk is. #WelfareQueen

“For the typical American household, the tariffs will mean a loss of about $1,200 in purchasing power, according to the Budget Lab at Yale University, a nonpartisan research center.” www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

This is a reminder that no one can convince Trump voters to no longer support Trump, better than Trump can.

Such a small weak man on full display Thank you for your service #GeneralMarkMilley🇺🇸 apple.news/AXVe-fekYS8K...

The thing to understand about Trump is like in his first term, he doesn’t want to govern. He doesn’t want to learn. He wants to campaign and look good. Republicans know this. So there are battles going on right now to take control of the actual process of governing.
