I am very much in favor of merit-based hiring and high standards for jobs with life and death implications. Which is why I oppose confirming Pete Hegseth, RFK JR, Tulsi Gabbard, and Kash Patel.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.
With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.
You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

New in PN: RFK Jr. is a massive public health threat
"Kennedy has articulated a vision that will, if enacted, lead to the deaths of untold numbers of people, many of whom have not even been born. It's difficult to overstate the long-term danger he poses."

Jarvis: His generals called him fascist. Joe Scarborough called him fascist, and now the fascist is in charge and it is journalism's job to cover it that way, not to back off and say okay, well that's it, we lost. Let the fascism happen. No

The President of the United States will come into office with his own social media platform.
That, combined with X, means Trump will have turnkey state-run media.
I don’t think the media has fully grasped that yet.

The point of bringing in Hegseth, Gaetz and Gabbard is to burn it all to the ground. Senate: You must recognize this and stop it.

It is little known, but the first book burnings in Nazi Germany didn’t target Jewish writers. It was the burning of the library of the Institute of Sexual Research, which was a safe home for trans people.
It is no accident that fascists today walk that same dark path by targeting trans people. /5

Folks, I'm seeing a rise in bots/trolls in my replies, so if/when you see them, remember:
1. Don't engage with them;
2. When I see them I'll block them, and then their comments will disappear forever;
3. You can block them too if you want, obviously.
They want attention. Disappoint them.

"Musk and Ramaswamy seem to think they’re the first people to try to streamline the US government. They’re not even close."
It will be darkly comical if DOGE becomes the least effective department in the government.
