When former RNC chairs are sounding the alarm, you know the GOP's moral compass is spinning faster than the Tasmanian Devil. It appears former RNC officials have gone from the Grand Old Party to being the Glaringly Obvious Party. #gop #trump #rnc www.newsweek.com/michael-stee...

An officer's pledge is to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States and to protect their country against all enemies, foreign and domestic." At no point does it say they swear an oath to a sitting president. Musk needs to understand that. thehill.com/policy/techn...
