I’m a pissed off woman, mother, and grandmother about the people who vote without knowing what they’re voting for. Research people! That’s it. But … Smooth Jazz keeps me sane! No DMs!

Strong statement by retired Rear Admiral Mike Smith, President of NSL4A: "National Security Leaders for America strongly condemns the removal of senior military officers without just cause. ... Removing experienced leaders with meritorious records weakens the force and emboldens America’s enemies."

Seems legit.... We don't want to be a nation of underachieving Americans.

The military is going to miss out on so much talent because of stupid decisions like this. themindshield.com/its-fcking-r...

I do not feel comfortable knowing that this Supreme Court is the last thing standing between us and full blown constitutional crisis.

King Musk-Trump removed the Black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour (without cause) and trying to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander. Yep, being Black is a crime.

Hegseth’s biography is on the left, General Brown’s on the right. Go read these to someone without telling them who they are and then ask them to choose who is better qualified to hold the positions of SECDEF and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.

Hegseth’s firings yesterday prove why we needed DEI in the first place.

Governor of Maine tells off Donald Trump to his face:

Please for the love of Dog get off X, people. You're not resisting. You're supporting a fascist.

The EU stepping in when the Russian compromised leader of the United States won't.

Rep. Jason Crow: “The purge of senior officers at DOD is deeply troubling, but purging JAG officers worries me the most. “JAG officers interpret law for our commanders. They help determine what's lawful and constitutional. “Replacing these military lawyers with Trump loyalists is so dangerous.”

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

who’s gonna do it, who will be the hero we needed

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

"Six weeks ago, we had the strongest economy, employment, and stock market in history. ..All gone in 30 days."

House Republicans who were willing to hold town halls back home this week got an earful. At events from Georgia and Wisconsin to Oklahoma and Oregon, many of them faced hostile crowds furious about the sweeping budget cuts & mass firings of federal workers that Trump and Musk’s DOGE is carrying out.

Ukraine has shown all of us around the world, what passion and patriotism looks like. For the past 3 years, they have stood tall and strong in the fight for democracy, sovereignty, freedom and humanity. Ukraine is all of us.

Yup!

This is a drug addict who can barely put together a sentence.

72 million Americans are on the chopping block to lose their healthcare if Republicans pass the budget that came out of the House. AOC (D-NY) voices her concerns daily telling her colleagues on the other side of the aisle that people are yelling Don’t Cut My Medicare. AOC has no fucks left to give.

Did you know that 72 MILLION Americans rely on Medicaid for healthcare? The Trump Administration and MAGA Republicans in Congress want to take it away to give tax breaks to billionaires. Don't let them take away our healthcare. Let them know you didn’t vote for this shit.

The police misconduct database has been eliminated by the Department of Justice on Trump‘s order. America just became a much more dangerous place, particularly for people of color. As we know that they are disproportionately affected by police brutality. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...
