When you've lost your job cuz BigBallz cut your agency, when Grandma moves home with you cuz no more Medicaid for nursing homes, and the stock market tanks like 1929, Mr Potter, I mean Elon, will happily exchange DogeCoin for dollars! You'll get a nickel for every buck, but it's somethin'!

I’m a Black higher ed lawyer, formerly in-house counsel at Harvard and top expert on Project 2025.
This is Project 2025 in action, dismantling the Department of Education; no Congressional approval, no public comment periods, nothing.
No coming back from this, folks. It didn’t have to be this way.

The Epstein Files have been on Pam Bondi's desk since February 21, so this shouldn't take 30 days.
Let the countdown begin.

AOC to @pabloreports.bsky.social : A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.

Just to review, in the last week the President of the United States:
- Refused to condemn the rise of Neo-Nazis in his party
- Tried to block the release of further evidence he sexually abused children
- Encouraged the execution of Congressional Democrats
Those are just factual statements.

CNN: If a sailor in the Caribbean is given an order they think possibly could be illegal, what are they to do?
HOULAHAN: If you receive an order you're not sure of, you have a duty to question your commander, the person next in your chain of command. You have a duty to go up the chain of command

Cheers to the person who leaked the initial changes www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
In reversal, Coast Guard again classifies swastikas, nooses as hate symbols
The new order came hours after The Post reported the service would instead classify such symbols as “potentially divisive” under guidelines set for release next month.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Rep. Khanna: Now it is a criminal offense for any career official at the Justice Department or the FBI not to release these files. It's a contempt of Congress. It's no longer, 'we just don't feel like doing it now.' You're violating federal law, and that's something very serious.

An important part of the job for any WH Press Secretary is to clean up remarks made by the president or offer explanation/context or apology when warranted. But Leavitt never does that. She always crafts a response that makes it even worse by adding her own toxic twist.

The President is calling for Democratic members of Congress to be hanged. This is deplorable, un-American, & an open invitation to political violence.
Servicemembers take their oath to the Constitution, not to any president. I stand with my colleagues who have honorably served this nation.
