It’s sad that today’s young people never got to experience America when ..

* we could talk to strangers without worrying if they were Dems or Republicans

* we didn’t fear being named in phone books next to our addresses

I'm a reporter at NBC News and I'm interested in speaking with people who are familiar with the specific technical details of onboarding DOGE staff at the federal agency level — USAID or CFPB or wherever. You can reach me on Signal at: davidingram.77. I can honor requests for anonymity.

Trump has signed an executive order eliminating all funding for diversity and inclusion in the federal government, sending home DEI staff who will then be laid off. The historical echo for this is when Woodrow Wilson resegregated the federal government in 1913. We have reached the second nadir.

Trump being sworn in as president is illegal according to the Constitution 14th Amendment Section 3.
Booked Law is a ship that sailed unless one brave voice stands up and calls the vote.
