I only see a person being strong enough to speak the truth. I would have gone further and ask why his murder is more important than the Minnesota politicians or the 100s of schoolchildren. He's not an elected official even though the media is treating this as though he is. Kudos for standing up.

Just want to reiterate it is NOT NORMAL FOR THE WORLD'S RICHEST MAN WHO HAS NO OFFICIAL GOVERNMENT ROLE TO ADDRESS THE PRESIDENT AND HIS CABINET.

And, also, casually joke about accidentally cutting Ebola prevention for a hot minute.

Every single Democratic governor and attorney general needs to do this -- if only to make it clear to voters *right now* that the firings and funding freezes that are about to hurt their states badly are the work of Trump-Musk in Washington.

Get ahead of this now, or get blamed for it later.

So basically, the Department of Health and Human Services is finished. If you want to stay safe from food recalls, viruses, and whatever else is comingโ€”better start looking elsewhere for reliable information.

Most Americans still have no idea about how F'd this country is about to get. I think if they knew it would be too overwhelming to process so they prefer maintaining the delusion, "It won't be that bad."

It'll be very bad, folks. Hold on to your butts.

On a scale of +10 (full democracy) to -10 (full autocracy), the US now scores a 0, its lowest score since the Civil War. โ€œThe USA is no longer considered a democracy and lies at the cusp of autocracy.โ€ [systemicpeace.org]

Trump Muses About a Third Term, Over and Over Again The presidentโ€™s suggestion that he would seek to stay in office beyond the constitutional limit comes as he has pushed to expand executive authority.

Pete Hegseth admitted to the Senate that he paid $50,000 (!!!) to silence a "Jane Doe" who accused him of rape.

But at his hearing last week, he said he was โ€œfalsely accused."

More questions than answers. We can't rush his vote and trust him with our national security.

Anthony Fauci Stripped of Government Security Protection Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, who was one of the nationโ€™s top health officials for decades, had received death threats during the coronavirus pandemic. He has hired his own security detail.

A government run by the most childish and idiotic people.

Hegseth has defended war criminals & rejected international law. Heโ€™s a prominent advocate for privatizing the VA. He was forced to step down from leading two advocacy groups after repeated allegations of financial mismanagement, sexual harassment & alcohol abuse. Iโ€™m voting NO.
