“BRING HIM HOME” 🔥

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

From Nov 7:

NEW: Trump said government cuts wouldn’t affect public safety. But staffing changes at the Forest Service have weakened an already strained firefighting force by hitting support staff who play crucial roles in preventing and battling blazes.

Pete Hegseth recklessly disclosed sensitive military attack plans that jeopardized American lives. And previously embarrassed us in front of our NATO allies in Brussels. Why does this guy still have a job?

This hasn’t aged well.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

SCOOP: A WIRED review of public data shows that national security adviser Mike Waltz, White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, and other top officials left sensitive information exposed via Venmo—until WIRED asked about it.

It gets worse. This Signal situation is just the tip of the iceberg of incompetence in this administration.

After the Atlantic published the texts this morning, Tulsi Gabbard is confronted today on why she lied in her testimony to the Senate yesterday. She says she misremembered.

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics. Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

Hegseth, Waltz and company texting war plans to a reporter on signal is just the tip of the iceberg. This whole administration is full of incompetent, inexperienced, and unqualified clowns. Our national security is compromised in ways we’re just beginning to understand.

Top White House officials used disappearing messages on Signal for top-secret national security discussions—violating federal law & risking our security. Even worse? A participant was in Moscow. Congress must investigate. This betrayal cannot stand . adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/the-signal...

Swalwell: Hegseth is still the Secretary of Defense? This moron texts out our war plans, putting our soldiers at risk, and he’s not gone? Every one on that chat—they just fire off texts not knowing who is on the chat? They all should be fired if they don’t resign.

Closing in on 3,000 letters sent to Congress since this morning! Demanding they publicly call for Hegseth's resignation. Help us get to 3,000 here: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

Two friends in gov tell me this is common practice in this admin as Trump & Co try to circumvent the Presidential Records Act and FOIA requests. So much for us plebes that followed the rules!

AOC: It's really because Republicans— they’re very thin skinned and they're very sensitive, and their feelings are very easily hurt. And so they have to vote on censure resolutions.

Yeah, ya think? "They are there to make sure we handle and store these materials in a way that avoids a nuclear chain reaction from occurring..... Losing these folks is concerning.” www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

I’ve been suggesting on TV and podcasts—without actual evidence(!)—that it may turn out that DOJ will wind up not having enough lawyers to defend all the lawsuits challenging this administration’s illegal conduct. Turns out it seems already to be true. 👉

This is so smart. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social , thoughts ? And if you see this. A reminder. This is not Twitter. You can engage here and have thoughtful discussions ! We all look forward to reading your thoughts

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

Just two weeks ago, everyone was screeching about China stealing all of our data through TikTok, but now Elon steals it and the MAGA crisis actors are OK with it? That's some fucking bullshit.

Have I missed any? 🙄

Irony is dead in this moment along with common sense. Trump who squawked “but her emails” incessantly, let Musk (unelected/not a govt employee) send his crew of kids in to review classified information & plug devices of unknown origin into the government computer system, compromising everything.

NEW: The board president of a small WV nonprofit says they haven't received their HHS funding since the Trump/Musk budget freeze. They had to lay off 3 of 5 employees on Friday. An 86-yr-old woman is counting on them to take her dialysis tomorrow. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Trump³⁴ says he is enacting a #TrumpTax (aka #TrumpTariffs) to stop drug trafficking Really?

Kaine: "He let Musk force the resignation of the FAA administrator. He disbanded an aviation safety committee... he's got an OMB director who's pushing a hiring freeze & saying 'I want to traumatize the federal workforce'"... he's got an anti-safety agenda..that's why he went the race-baiting route"

This was one of my favorite accounts! cc: @booker.senate.gov @warren.senate.gov @aoc.bsky.social @jaimeharrison.bsky.social @raskin.house.gov

Fourteen hours before the crash. 👇

Trump wants to distract you from the fact that he gutted the Aviation Safety Committee and ousted the FAA administrator last week. Don’t let him.

Dear @chastenbuttigieg.bsky.social Please please please encourage #PeteButtigieg to join us here on @bsky.app - he is sorely needed. Thank you very much. 💙 #TeamPete

Anyway as they pull bodies out of the Potomac bear in mind that the guiding ethos of Trumpism is that the TSA, NTSB, and FAA should be radically downsized and run by dudes whose main qualifications are loyalty are a willingness to say “cunt” a lot
