Pete Hegseth tried to tell me there was "no litmus test" to hire anyone at DoD. Not true.
Why does a WELDER need to share with the federal government what their favorite Trump Executive Order is as part of their job application?
Drop the politics. Hire the best. That simple.

We now know that the GOP's Big Ugly bill would allow for the sale of 250 MILLION acres of public land. 5.4 million in Washington state.
We can't let them jam this through in secret.
Help me say it loud and clear for Republicans: Public lands belong in public hands.

If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way we’re cutting it ourselves — strategically undermining America’s long-term health, wealth, and security — we would likely consider it an act of war.

Kash Patel, the conspiracy theorist that Republicans made FBI Director, came to a Senate hearing on the budget—with NO budget, NO timeline, and NO clue.
It's downright incompetent, and it's making America less safe.
We need serious leadership at the FBI.

MURRAY: It was due last week. By law.
PATEL: I understand.
MURRAY: You're not gonna follow the law? ... And you have no timeline?
PATEL: No
MURRAY: Hmm. We're not having a budget hearing without a budget request. So where is it?
PATEL: I understand.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.
No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.
