Gov. Beshear: “The president has both the funding and the authority to fund SNAP during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.”

They use govt accounts, employees & resources to make partisan political messages.
They make partisan political speeches attacking the opposition party to troops routinely.
They get pardoned when they commit crimes.
They ignore the laws.
There is zero congressional oversight.

The people running this country have zero respect for the Constitution, laws, rules of ethics and professional responsibility, traditions or norms. They are lawless gangsters drunk on power and nobody in their party outside the admin has the courage or integrity to stop them.

Our federal tax dollars are being used to fund a network of government social media accounts that pump out disinformation 24/7. Even during a government shutdown. It’s definitely not essential work.

This is a profoundly absurd show of force that could put Californians directly in harm's way.
Flying live rounds over a busy highway without coordination between state, federal, and local partners isn't just wrong — it's dangerous.
