“In some ways that’s even more chilling than firing the four stars,” Rosa Brooks, a professor at Georgetown Law. “It’s what you do when you’re planning to break the law: you get rid of any lawyers who might try to slow you down.” By NYT Greg Jaffe www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/u...

By law, an officer appointed as chairman of the Joint Chiefs must have served as a vice chairman or must have previously overseen a military service or a combatant command. Caine did not serve in any of those positions. This requirement can be waived, however, if the president “determines such..."

It’s easy to be loud and proud during the campaign, when you’re convinced there’s no way Trump will win again. When it counts the most, though…is when he’s back in power, is unleashed and you’re scared. Don’t you dare go quiet now. This is when your nation and fellow citizens, need you the most.

It breaks a part of me that I too stand on my convictions this strongly, and refuse to allow anyone to escape accountability. No more excuses, no more justification. The line has been drawn in the sand. If you're not calling it out, you are part of the problem.

Germany’s general election is Sunday. Elon Musk, Trump’s Nazi-saluting billionaire bro, is continuing to amplify enthusiastic support for Germany’s AfD — a political party rife with neo-Nazis. Chapters of the AfD are considered right-wing "extremist" groups by Germany's…

"Only 34% approve of what Musk is doing Only 26% are OK with him shutting down govt programs And a whopping 63% don’t like Musk’s marauders gaining access to federal government databases containing Social Security, Medicare and tax information" www.azcentral.com/story/opinio...

The essence of it all: "Trump and Musk represent a global white supremacist ideology that would rather destroy everything than let this happen ever again." THIS. Of course they'll come for Social Security, Medicare etc. Whites getting govt benefits mean Blacks also getting benefits, & that won't do.

My mom helped run a Social Security field office for most of my childhood. The population that these locations serve is overwhelmingly disabled, elderly, poor or some combination thereof. That’s who they’re looking to deny services and resources.

Trump & Musk are teeing up their biggest target yet: Social Security. They're using "fraud" as a political tool to justify the attack. Social Security has long been the rock of the welfare state. It comprises 40% of income for older adults. It's so popular, the GOP loves it just as much as Dems 1/

Still, the DOGE team landed at the Social Security Administration this week, with Musk drawing attention for his outlandish claims that large numbers of 150-year-old “vampires” are receiving Social Security payments. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

When the U.S. Nazi Party says they’re cutting mandatory spending, they’re talking about slashing Medicare, Social Security, Medicaid, and paying less on the national debt. These programs are funded by our tax dollars- they’re not handouts. Cutting them is the same as taking money out of your pocket

STAND UP TO MUSK Despite Trump’s campaign promises, Musk is coming after your earned Social Security benefits. Demand that every member of Congress stand up to Musk’s cynical efforts to steal our earned Social Security benefits while giving himself and other billionaires a hefty tax cut.

They continue to tell this debunked lie 🤥 for a reason: so when they cut social security to pave the way for their tax cuts for the rich you think they had an actual reason to do it.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Sure Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the CNO....but they fired the top JAG's in the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Why would you fire the top lawyers in the armed services at night on a Friday? That's the part you should be freaking out about.
