The fact that this admin is so quickly doing things that are massively unpopular is one major reason I am so worried for our democracy. If you think you have to answer to voters soon, you try to do stuff they like. They don't seem to anticipate consequences for any of this... 1/

Interesting that at least some of the anti vax people aren't anti vax so much as they don't think a problem is real until it's imminent

So people born in the US don't get to be citizens but rich foreigners do? I prefer "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free", personally

There is no good reason for serious journalists or credible outlets to continue participating in a state-media propaganda operation, but they'll cling to their WH press passes no matter how rancid the indefensible sham of it becomes.

The man on stage chillingly says: „She spoke up and now she doesn’t want to suffer the consequences“, mocking her, as unidentified men drag a woman and zip-tie her under the sheriffs orders, because she had dared to peacefully speak out during a town hall. This is fascism.

For all you who continually whine “I’m not racist, I just think we need to have standards,” this is absorb this.No Black man could become head of the Joint Chiefs without meeting the standard. What they want is to harden a system of affirmative action for white guys.They what their grandfathers had.

Trump firing generals and replacing them with his people. When Mark Milley lost his security detail a few weeks ago and it was announced his rank would be reviewed, military.com reported that other military figures were staying quiet out of fear of retaliation. How is that working out for them?

This is the first time I've actually listened to Elon talk and I hadn't realized he had completely Americanized his accent. Mine shifts a bit based on where I am spending my time, so I don't want to be overly judgmental, but to completely adopt a new accent seems...very strange to me

This new EO is a doozy, clearly written to test the constitutionality of independent agencies at the SCt. It purports to effectively bring all independent agencies - including the Fed Election Cmsn and the Fed (in part) under presidential control. Irreconcilable w/existing law full stop. /1

Here's the executive order just signed by Trump. One of the defining features of fascism is that the discretionary power of the leader always prevails over the rule of law.

"Now I am afraid for her and my baby's health because of this rushed, haphazard and cruel push to shut down the agency. This didn't have to happen. I don't know how to explain to our daughter, who is living through all this with me and my wife, that our government is doing this to us." Horrifying.

Abruptly firing people who work in air traffic control is like murdering your own soldiers in the middle of a war. Even if you think things now aren’t working as efficiently as they should there’s no clear path to recovering from this; it’s just a really extremely foolish and dangerous thing to do.
