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

A full-on purge of the military leadership, targeting women and people of color. This perfectly captures where we are: An escalating authoritarian takeover of the state, combined with an aggressive program to re-segregate the spheres of influence and power and restore complete white male dominance.

It's surprising to me that in reading Truce by @nycsouthpaw.bsky.social and @hunterw.bsky.social they didn't ask the Progressives, why are you leaning on the White House for a Congress problem? Maybe do your Congressperson job?

Over on X, simple tweets by my colleague Greg Bluestein of the Atlanta Journal Constitution have been blocked. They were nothing but video of a town hall held by Rep. Rich McCormick R-GA where he was asked questions about DOGE

It's sad when someone voted for Trump without knowing anything about him. He constantly talks about himself. Sad that someone would ignore it and vote carelessly.

This is wrong. Trump is always transparent. This was always his plan, he talked about it all of the time. This is what Trump voters wanted and voted for.
