The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Trump Admin public affairs shops are openly trolling. Now they're posting white nationalist messages and the target audience is hearing it loud and clear. As a former Army spokesman I find it incredibly dangerous. My latest dives into the meaning in DHS's most recent 'Manifest Destiny' meme.
That's not a dog whistle
It's clear that white supremacists are currently running the social media and public relations shops of Federal agencies and that's dangerous for all of us

i don't mean to come off as rude but we cannot sustain ourselves on outrage and anger forever. i think it's even more important now to post about other things too. even if it gets less engagement. you never know who will find it cool and interesting.
It’s a real mindfuck when most ppl wanna post about their latest failures/successes, or weird shit they saw in the wild or cool stuff they made…but the country is a cesspool so cool/weird shit seems trite.

This is not normal. A sitting president refusing to call the governor of a state after two elected officials were shot, one fatally, is beyond words. A typical president, regardless of politics, would pick up the phone. Offer condolences.
