Oh… Stop overreacting! More trump loyalists do the Nazi salute This time Steve Bannon at CPAC

Trump abruptly fired Air Force Gen. CQ Brown as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff on Friday, sidelining a history-making fighter pilot and respected officer as part of a campaign to rid the military of leaders who support diversity and equity in the ranks. apnews.com/article/trum...

Civility doesn’t seem to be working either.

The Trump-Vance-Musk regime is not only undermining democracy in the US. It is laying the foundation for undermining democracies around the world. The emerging battle will be global democracy vs. a global oligarchy. The US is emerging on the side of global oligarchy.

Trump fired Gen. CQ Brown as Joint Chiefs chair, ousting a key leader after 40+ years of service. Brown, known for backing diversity efforts, played a major role in Ukraine and the Middle East. His removal signals Trump’s push for military leadership aligned with his policies. (NYTimes)

While Trump is out there doing everything he can to stuff Elon's pockets and other billionaires...

We have your back Governor Mills.

Trump administration is planning to use polygraphs to assess federal employee loyalty. There are ways to manipulate polygraph results, and we will provide guidance to coalition members. Polygraph results are not admissible in court due to their potential for false positives and negatives.

A small government team at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, responsible for regulating autonomous cars—which Elon Musk claims are the future of Tesla—is being cut nearly in half by Musk. Conflict of interest?

Something odd just happened—an article that had been widely published on media sites has suddenly disappeared without any retraction or explanation. Many may have come across it on Reddit.

The Pentagon will fire 5,400 civilian workers next week.

At the end of Trump's first month back... • The Dow has stumbled • More Americans disapprove than approve of Trump's handling of the economy and don't believe Trump has done enough to lower prices • And a majority of Americans believe Trump's tariffs ( #TrumpTaxes ) hurt the economy

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

Donald Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987 and goes by the nickname ‘Krasnov’

musk's private security deputized by u.s. marshals service -- potentially clearing the way for his personal bodyguards to be carrying weapons on federal grounds. um... www.cnn.com/2025/02/20/p...

President Musk’s private goons are the only non-public safety officers allowed to carry weapons on federal grounds. The White House, Congress, Federal office buildings... He gets perks never allowed in the past in addition to profiting directly from what he changes #Voices4Victory #Musk

Janet Mills is a #Maine example.

Governor Janet Mills from Maine told Trump to POUND SAND! This is the kinda energy Democrats need.

BRAVO to Maine Governor Janet Mills for slapping petty tyrant trump in the face with her calmly defiant "see you in court." THIS IS HOW IT'S DONE. 🔥🔥🔥

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

BREAKING: The Associated Press sues three Trump administration officials over access to presidential events, citing the First Amendment.

NEW: The Associated Press is suing Trump Administration officials in federal court for banning AP reporters from events over the organization continuing to use the name 'Gulf of Mexico.' AP says the ban violates the First and Fifth Amendments.

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

Trump pardoned the sentence of arguably the single biggest drug trafficker in American history on his second day in office!

If we have enough people with the knowledge and moral fortitude of Maine Governor Janet Mills, and the Associated Press- we might be able to save our Democracy

This is madness: Kash Patel confirmed as FBI director. Trump is completely dismantling our government and filling it with sycophants and bootlickers. Every warning sign from history is blinking red. If you'd like to see the playbook...

Hey John Thune – remind of us why, exactly, along with six other Republican senators and a Republican House member you were 'visiting' Moscow on July 4th 2018?
