Much media coverage: These Pentagon moves are unusual but Trump's within his rights and wants supporters of his America First agenda. The truth: How is removing the JAGs relevant to any agenda? New, Hegseth-selected JAGs are needed for total loyalty to Trump and finding all his orders lawful.

I've noted some of the procedural things Democrats could be doing in Congress, but this point from @edgeofsports.bsky.social's great piece in the Nation deserves emphasis. This is basic politics, and it's baffling that every Democrat isn't doing it every day. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

They're using fear to bully you into compliance. Fear of losing your job, your savings, your Medicare/medicaid, your rights, your freedom. They're using fear to bully our allies, to break our alliances and promises. What do they have to fear? Nothing so far. That needs to change.
