The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

Let's say there's "waste" and "fraud" in the government. Well that’s why every department had an inspector general to find and stop it. But guess what? Trump fired most of these independent auditors who should be insulated from politics. None of this is about waste and fraud.

I think maybe some new Trumpers like Ms. Leavitt need a reminder: when the President orders you to do something illegal, it is still an illegal act. He may be immune from prosecution, but you are not.
