So the President not only fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. He also fired the top JAGs at the Army, Navy and Air Force. Those are the lead people who determine what is a legal order and what is not. So if you're planning to do things that are illegal they're the most obvious obstacle.

Another dataset I like is from the National Atmospheric Deposition Program, which has maps of the US that show we fixed the acid rain problem by implementing stricter emission controls on power plants. nadp.slh.wisc.edu/maps-data/nt...

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

As a Navy Veterans Daughter I condemn the firing of admiral lisa franchetti first woman to lead us navy special operations You fired another high ranking woman in the us military #StandwithAdmiralLisaFranchetti #ProudBlueVet #WomeninTheMilitary 👇👇 www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

He nails it.

Hypocrite says what?

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.

Perhaps the most shameful aspect of this moment in our country's history is the sheer cowardice of the GOP 👇 Read more here: bit.ly/41pxP3k #TraitorTrump

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

When I see Steve Bannon doing a Nazi salute to cheers it means only one thing: 420,000 U.S. troops died defending our country from Nazi assholes and 77 million people voted for them to be in power. MAGA betrayed our country voting for this nightmare.

I'm starting to think that the Russia thing wasn't a hoax.

Nick misses the old days when the Nazis were more competent.

it is shocking the extent to which they openly sneer at morality

General Charles Q. Brown Jr., Faithfully and Honorably served the Constitution and The People of the US for 41-years in the USAF. His last posting was as the 21st Chairman of The Joint Chiefs of Staff. He was unjustly fired by the dangerously unqualified SECDEF. I proudly stand with Gen. Brown.

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

I think it would make a big difference in our health if we banned Pharma ads from America like the rest of the world does.

Another bullshit pie in the sky claim from Elon Musk. This guy is exactly like Donald Trump. Promise crap, FAIL and make a new promises tomorrow. finance.yahoo.com/news/musk-cl...

Last I checked there was a federal criminal statute on extortion that’s enforced by the United States Department of Jus— … oh wait, never mind

New in PN: AOC shows how to fight back and stand strong "Prominent figures standing up can undermine the climate of fear that MAGA relies on to impose terror. AOC’s work on behalf of her constituents and refusal to be intimidated are models of resistance other Democrats would do well to imitate."

Recognize fascism for what it is. The current administration’s anti-information bent, idiot appointees, and mass firings are all part of the same authoritarian plan. Loyalty cannot come with caveats. He wants simps and sycophants; anyone capable of being more is a threat.

This is real

Yes, I would be shunned and reviled by the so called Christian community.

Good morning #Resisters ☕️ Happy Friday!! 💫🤜💙🤛💫

📌NYT Headline: “Trump flips the script on Russia, blames Zelenskyy” Sorry, but what the fuck are we supposed to do with crap like this? 📌”Trump betrays Zelenskyy, surrenders to Russia” There, fixed it.

Lying about his weight is funny, but this is Trump’s most outrageous lie: "I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

As former GOP Congresswoman Liz Cheney so eloquently said in a January 6th Committee hearing, “To my Republican colleagues who are defending the indefensible: There will come a time when Donald Trump is gone. But your dishonor will remain.” #ResistTrump

In 2028 this is what a Democratic president needs to do. We will win if you all vote blue this time.

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

The Senate just voted on a simple idea: If you make $1 BILLION in a year, you don't deserve a tax handout. Democrats voted yes. Republicans voted no. Republicans are planning huge tax cuts for the rich, but they’re not the ones who need a break — working people do.
