The authoritarian script:
1) Court rules against leader
2) Attack judges as biased/dangerous
3) Delegitimize judicial system
4) Create permission for threats
5) IF NO MASS RESISTANCE → Purge the courts
6) IF MASS RESISTANCE → Forced to retreat

And DOGE invaded Peace Corps headquarters on a Friday. Please don’t let them gut the Peace Corps! Are our people in Congress really too powerless to stop this?

For the record, the Peace Corps costs about $400 million out of a federal budget of $1.8 trillion - 0.02% if my math is right. But hey, just ignore the $850 billion DOD budget and target the peace guys for cuts!

The Peace Corps is antithetical to the President's America First policy.
The official policy of the United States is now "We don't do shit for anyone but ourselves."
The unofficial policy is "We don't do shit for 98% of Americans either."
