The resistance will bring down Musk and Trump. Congress, wake up before your power is gone. The GOP begging Trump to release money to their states is pathetic—stand up to this tyranny. Congress controls the purse strings.

This is the US Courts website. I just pulled this up earlier and took a screenshot. Do you notice anything? Look in the top left corner. See that 9 star flag? Know what that is? It's almost identical to the first Confederate National Flag. WTF?!?!?!

If you haven't actually read Project 2025. I advise you to do so. He's ticking boxes and running down the list. Of course he's ignored the part about NOT letting elitists run and control the government. Imagine that. I wish people had read it BEFORE they voted.

It's happening under the cover of darkness and denials. Hitler did it in 56 days. Velveeta Voldemort & his cronies could likely do it in 30. I wanna commend Mitch McConnell for voting no. This isn't the country I grew up in. I'm terrified for what's coming next.

Inspectors General are key public servants tasked with holding our government accountable. They’re independent, nonpartisan whose work is identifying fraud, waste, & importantly, abuse. Trump just fired them all. Make no mistake: he's purging those who will protect the rule of law.
