We are in the midst of an administrative coup the like of which we have never seen - or even imagined - in our lifetimes.
Every day brings new abuses, new scandals, which can’t just be undone or fixed.
We are in a very dark place as a country and as a constitutional republic right now.

Exactly what both Putin & Trump want.👇

DOGE staffer Marko Elez was linked to a now-deleted X account that advocated repealing the Civil Rights Act, backed a “eugenic immigration policy,” & wrote, “You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity." Elez has just resigned. However he already had access to the Treasury Dept database..
