HEADS UP! We need to give this story more attention. This is the next phase - investigations of those who criticize Trump, Musk or SCOTUS. It’s already started. It is a campaign of intimidation designed to silence criticism. wapo.st/3X8d75G

To know whether you are being scammed, you need to learn how manipulation works so you can recognize it when you see it, and you need the skills to figure out what would motivate someone to try to take advantage of you. This view of education is something we should all be able to agree on.

Captain Obvious: Allegiance to one person is the exact opposite of what the Constitution is about. It's about allegiance to laws & principles, not kings or idols. The US founding documents reject all-powerful rulers. Anybody who says different seeks to enrich themselves, not the country.
