One man’s temper tantrum to feel powerful is having devestating consequences

One man’s temper tantrum to feel powerful is having devestating consequences
And if you can’t see this, you might also be both.
Pretty simple rule of thumb when wondering why the Trump administration does anything is to ask two questions:
1) is it racist?
Or
2) are they stupid?
Tends to cover most Trump administration stuff.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.
Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law
Time to do things that make him react to you.

Trump has canceled Biden's ethics rules. Critics call it the opposite of 'drain the swamp'
Donald Trump took office eight years ago pledging to “drain the swamp” of the dominance of Washington influence peddlers.

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position.
You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

One thing Democrats need to be careful about when criticizing DOGE is not defending the system. The government *is* broken. There *is* wasteful spending—but there's a right way and a wrong way to do it. What Trump and Musk are doing is absolutely the wrong way. It's reckless and makes us less safe.

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.
