His followers are like, “Surely there must be some mistake, he said only THEIR lives would be ruined. I’d better message the president and let him know.”

We’re in the denial and bargaining stage folks.

I would not be surprised in Gregg was involved in trying to locate my brother in Mt. Rainier. My heart goes out to him and all the federal workers suffering under this ruthless attack on our communities.
Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.

100% of his salary is paid by WA state.

Elon fired him. Share his story.

"Unlike Donald Trump, Elon Musk, or J. D. Vance, I have had children serve in uniform in wartime," writes @eliotacohen.bsky.social. "The parent of a service member looks with a particularly keen eye at who is in command."

“We fired all the guards at the bank so they’re not roadblocks to anything that happens.”
Hegseth says firing of top military lawyers was about making sure "they don't exist to be roadblocks to anything that happens."

If members of Congress—like Rep. Grothman —are this clueless about what the man who is dismantling our government is saying and promising, they don’t deserve to keep their jobs!

This woman is in his face, begging him to wake TF up—and he just walks off. Pathetic.

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

Guarding a concentration camp isn't the kind of thing most people want to sign up for.

Along with a racist effort to purge officers who aren’t white, military recruiting is going to tank and the ensuing national security crisis will be entirely self-inflicted

General CQ Brown, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, wasn't fired by Trump because he "supports woke policies." He was fired because he's a Black man in the nation's top uniformed military post.

Why do you think Trump fired Admiral Linda L. Fagan as Commandant of the US Coast Guard and abruptly kicked her and their family out of the Commandant's residence?

Usually when states go to court alleging federal coercion in violation of the 10th Amendment there is not a literal video of the President doing it.
TRUMP: The NCAA has complied immediately. That's good. But I understand Maine -- is the governor of Maine here?

JANET MILLS: Yeah I'm here

TRUMP: Are you not gonna comply?

JM: I'm going to comply with state and federal law

T: You better do it bc you're not gonna get any federal funding at all

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu

“Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

I have solved Bird Flu. Give the chickens ivermectin. Have the chickens practice Earthing. The problem with their immune systems is they are not touching the soil enough. Coffee enemas for all chickens. Also we must stop reading them Ibram X. Kendi. Eggs will be back and most importantly not gay.
