So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

. Firing a decorated Black ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ fighter pilot with no reason only to replace him with someone less qualified because of some made-up war on “wokeness”? This isn’t just dangerous it’s straight-up racist. The military deserves better than Trump’s petty reckless games. I stand with CQ Brown .

Our Social Security system switched to computers in the 1960’s. When this happened, even people who had passed away and were NO longer receiving Social Security benefits, were entered. The COBOL date field for these dead people defaulted to May 20, 1875. That is 150 years. They’re NOT getting $$.

. . $613 BILLION. . . That’s how much Elon Musk’s companies have gained in value SINCE THE ELECTION 31 DAYS AGO. Billionaires are thriving while the rest of us struggle. The system isn’t broken—it’s working exactly as designed.

Just when you think Donald Trump cannot sink lower or be more shameful, today he's blaming Ukraine for the war and calling Zelinsky a dictator, when he knows perfectly well that Putin's constant re-elections are put-up jobs.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

After deciding to destroy our stockpile of 160 Million perfectly good Covid Tests already paid for, tonight Tusk say they have reversed this typically foolish/wasteful decision to throw away $500 MILLION worth of tests OUR tax dollars paid for. Another “L” earned on government efficiency. (W Post)

. Hitler didn’t seize power overnight. It started with Germans angry about inflation, blaming minorities, and accepting small attacks on democracy as ‘necessary.’ By the time they realized what they’d enabled, it was too late. Sound familiar? 👂 WAKE UP! #Inflation #Trump #GOP #Democrats #War

A recent Executive Order (2/18/25) states that only the President and AG can have an “opinion” about our laws. Excuse me? Sec. 7…… “the President and the Attorney General's opinions on questions of law are controlling on all employees in the conduct of their official duties.”

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.
