We wanted them to have healthcare and a high paying job and a planet to live on and freedom. They want us to suffer. The parties are not the same.

Black excellence: Twice as qualified, half as respected, and still passed over or labeled as a ‘DEI hire.’ Black folks have always known this because we’ve seen it happen to our own family members. I know I have.

The NFL has a racism problem. Now it won’t say “END RACISM!” Trumpism wants this and it is OUTRAGEOUS! Just the pretense of acknowledging it exists and is wrong cannot be allowed to be normal! I WONT WATCH!

This is possibly the most astonishing thing I've read from the last week. DOGE re-writing air traffic control. DOGE gutting USAID & raiding its SCIF. DOGE hoovering up OPM. All of it madness. But this one is worse. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

Remind me when George Soros or his son Alexander Soros shut down government agencies, hijacked the Treasury Department, and stole our social security numbers?

The word “weaponization” out of MAGA is a tell. It signals lying about the hard fact that Trump is a criminal. How far will they push the lie?

Trump's promise to dismantle the Education Department will likely be more costly for red states than blue. Trump states, on average, use more federal funding in their education apportions than states that voted for Vice President Harris. www.axios.com/2025/02/05/t...

James Madison wrote of the necessity of the separation of powers: “The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive & judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elected, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.”

Where the hell are any Republicans who are willing to stand up to what is happening to our democracy? How low can you go to stand for this -- the wholesale takeover the U.S. government and its operations?

I couldn't agree more, George. The Republicans are sitting back and doing NOTHING, they are allowing. Allowing the coup to fully materialize. But with whom will the spoils be shared, if at all?

NEW: DoJ employees asked for guarantees in writing for the deferred resignation Fork in the Road plan. They were sent this. It strips the signer of the right to sue, and also says if you commit a felony, you’re not eligible for federal employment. Oh, the irony.

Folks (and this thing has gone around quickly), it's still unclear what has been "deleted"; as many of you have noted DirectFile remains active. Part of the danger of Government-By-Unelected-Nutball is that what's actually true is a moving target. If you RT'd my initial post, RT this as well.

So lets recap: - Trump announces tariffs. - Allies turn against the U.S., launch boycotts on U.S. products and boo us at events. - Markets nosedive. - Trump caves. The "deals": - Mexico agrees to do the same things they always do at the border to help the U.S. (including under Biden) 1/

Remember when Trump called for "termination" of the Constitution in 2022? The New York Times played it on Page 13. Now that Trump's "termination" is happening, I wonder if the Times' editors have any regrets for years of normalization and "both sides" framing that comforted the would-be dictator.

Very few Americans realize just how crazy these men are. We do not have a government. We have an asylum where the inmates have guns. Darren Beattie is hardly fit for civilized society, let alone one of the top positions at the State Department. Men like this will blunder America into a world war.

Musk has as much legal authority to shut down USAID as I do to shut down Tesla, which is to say: none.
