“That is why Trumpists are so focused on “ending DEI” in the federal workforce. They see anti-discrimination and inclusion as a ladder of upward mobility for people they do not believe should have one.”

WAIT! The most diverse democracy on earth is threatened BY diversity, or equity, or inclusion? AND all others hoping to follow in the footsteps of the US are too? How could so many politicians be so ignorant of history?
He’s 1000% putting the Elon affect on tweets about Elon Policies because he wants to run for President in 2028
Attacking South Africa as a DEI country makes it absolutely crystal clear which kind of human Marco Rubio is.

Trump must know. His veil of authority is the only power behind Musk’s madness. Musk promised Trump $2 trillion in savings as the only way for Trump to buy off GOP “moderates” who will not otherwise support new tax cuts. This is do or die for Trump…and American democracy depends on the latter.
He has no idea what Elon is doing. He let loose Elon to go wild.
REPORTER: Why is it important for Elon Musk to have access to the payments systems at Treasury?
TRUMP: Well, he's got access only to letting people go that he thinks are no good, and it's only if we agree with him

I’m with you and I’m a “Boomer” too. It was the Boomers who fought and got Women’s Rights, Civil Rights, safety consumerism, quality controls. etc - Boomers have NOTHING to be ashamed of. The majority of us side with young people today - except the few boomers who sold out! There’s always one.

Only AOC sounds at all human. The other three are examples of why Trump's people say he 'doesn't sound like a politician' and 'he tells it like it is'. Careful, measured syllables that commit to nothing and that can be quickly retracted if there's blowback. Honest to God most Democrats are ass.

This is why we are where we are. Democrats tried to treat the last election as if it were normal. Some of us saw Project 2025 as the war plan it is. A war on Democracy with daily direct, terroristic attacks on the structure of our Government and the Constitution itself. It was not normal.
