Grim reality of America’s steep decline that MAGA will surely blame on Biden.
When you are partnered with America's enemies, this is what you do: you reveal war plans against a country to an individual tied to that country; and you place the US military in the hands of an incompetent.
"If a foreign country was to learn how the United States planned to fight a war against them, it could reinforce its defenses and address its weaknesses, making the plans far less likely to succeed."

Trump can call me names but the truth remains. He is an unhinged wanna be dictator who is angry that I beat him in court and won't cower in fear. Now he is weaponizing the federal government against his political opponents.

I will not back down.
I will not bow or scrape.
I will never obey.
Trump name-checks Marc Elias and says he tried to turn American into a communist nation (big, if true)

“Wettin up the land.”
Trump's word salad on releasing the water in California shows you how dangerous it is to have a commander in chief who knows nothing and cares less about agriculture.

As your Lieutenant Governor I'm going to fight like hell every day for our farmers.

Manager: "What's this milestone 'Living on a prayer' ?"
Me: "That's the documentation deliverable."
Manager: "What's the status of that?"
Me: "We're halfway there"
Manager: "Why is progress so slow?"
Me: "You fired Tommy"
Manager: "So?"
Me: "Tommy used to work on the docs"

Government watchdog organizations are calling on the Senate to demand answers about Trump's firing of 18 inspectors general.

"The removal of multiple IGs at once raises significant concerns about maintaining the integrity and continuity of oversight."
POGO and Partners: The Senate Must Demand Answers on IGs
POGO is a nonpartisan independent watchdog that investigates and exposes waste, corruption, abuse of power, and when the government fails to serve the public or silences those who report wrongdoing.

“America First” is lethal, ugly and UNAMERICAN.
A 71-year-old woman and others have died after oxygen supply was cut off and hospitals shuttered after Donald Trump announced a freeze on aid funding.
US aid freeze claims first victims as oxygen supplies cut off
Seventy-one-year-old woman dies after being sent home from USAID funded hospital. Others die after hospitals close in refugee camps

We were promised transparency—they classified everything.

We were promised efficiency—they put everything under the control of one man.

We were promised less bureaucracy—they privatized it.

This is the most corrupt and lawless administration in American history.

“It’s a constitutional and national crisis of the highest order.”
Why are Dems waiting for the courts to fight? Is there a plan for when the regime rejects the courts?
Why are some Dems confirming ANY of the despicable cabinet picks?
Yesterday, I attended the Elizabeth Warren rally/photo op at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and got so mad, I stompy-stomped off in mid-rally.

This is why.

Elon Musk, who no one voted for, is in control of the federal government and is destroying it agency by agency.

It’s a coup.

Lord knows I’m not a constitutional scholar not even a lawyer (and I’ve yet to check in with @kateshaw.bsky.social) but a legal regime in which “you can do crimes if you’re buddies with the president or praise him publicly” is *on its face* a violation the equal protection of the laws.

#BSV Trump's repeated attacks on diversity initiatives, criticisms of "woke" ideology, have been accompanied by a disturbing rise in overtly racist rhetoric and sentiments.

He targets diversity programs and demonizes those who advocate for inclusivity.

We’re already in the middle of a constitutional crisis as this administration is blatantly ignoring judges and is gearing up to challenge their authority in totality.

Again. We need to be ready for collective action. Our institutions will not save us. This is heating up in a hurry.
