I hate when I go to bed early on a Saturday night and wake up Sunday morning only to discover we’ve gone to war in the Middle East without the consent of Congress. 😡

I see more criticism here of Democrats in Congress than I do condemnation of Republicans.
And yet it is the GOP who are enabling Trump.
It tells me a lot when I see you regularly bash our side but say nothing, ever, about the other.
Reflect on your choices. You may be helping the fascists.

I’ve received word from multiple FAA employees and partners that they’ve been directed to halt all comms. Seems like an admission of guilt.

Don't confuse them.
He is flooding the zone. He knows that media will cover everything he does. Getting people upset. Which helps give him more coverage of the upset people. All just talking about him.
Dems need to be strategic.

In her first week, Biden FTC Chair Lina Khan pledged to "protect the public from corporate abuse."
In his first week, Trump FTC Chair Andrew Ferguson announced that "DEI is over" at the agency.
One agenda to protect people.
The other to distract from corporate plunder.
