One small step. I’ll take it!

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

The goal of this administration seems to be showing that government doesn't work. Appointing incompetents to positions of high authority, firing qualified civil servants, eliminating crucial agencies will bring disasters.

The message from Trump is crystal clear - if you beat the hell of out police, if you threaten to kill FBI officers - I will make sure you get away with it if you are breaking the law to keep me in power.
If you don't see it, this is a message about 2028.

“I could no longer bear to be silent,” says retired federal judge Mark Wolf, who quit his lifetime seat to warn about Trump’s threat to democracy. It’s part of a broader movement which Wolf hopes will “create this tidal wave that will be sufficient to sustain our democracy.” #Velshi
The judge who quit to save democracy and ‘send a ripple of hope’
Former federal judge Mark Wolf resigned his lifetime seat to warn that Donald Trump threatens American democracy. His departure is part of a wider pattern inside government, with DOJ attorneys leaving in record numbers and some National Guard soldiers refusing what they say are unlawful orders. These acts point to a systemic crisis of faith and to a growing movement of judges, civil servants, and citizens determined to defend the American experiment as it nears its 250th year. “I hope I'm sending out a ripple of hope, and it will merge with these other ripples,” Wolf says. “And together create this tidal wave that will be sufficient to sustain our democracy.”
