President Trump has swiftly waged his war on the federal bureaucracy, defying norms and legal limits. He has terminated most of an estimated 200,000 government employees, and more layoffs are expected in the weeks ahead. These are the cuts and temporary removals we've confirmed. nyti.ms/4i6n9w4

That Trump is now calling Pres. Zelensky a β€œdictator” and it talked the U.S. into spending $350 billion (a lie) for a war Ukraine started (another disgusting lie) should remind you the White House occupant is mentally deranged and must be opposed at all times.

Are any other of my transgender family and friends all of a sudden getting notifications from the Selective Service? I don’t think that Musk was only after financial information. Gender markers and changes could also be accessed. Stay safe. He won’t stop with immigrants. I worry for you. I love you.
