Eisenhower: “In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.”
A Palantir billionaire just called for public hangings.
“It's time to bring back masculine leadership to protect our most vulnerable,” writes Joe Lonsdale.

Trump launched a probe into Sen. Kelly because he said the military shouldn’t obey ILLEGAL orders.
Trump is yet again abusing his power to go after his opponents.
This is absurd.
No one should fear a political witch-hunt just for standing up for the rule of law.

Corporate profiteering and subsidies continue. No curbs on corporate welfare.

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone.
Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work.
Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.

In Rhode Island, ICE arrested an intern who worked for a court, and then a judge intervened to say they had the wrong person.
All leading to a scene where ICE agents surrounded the judge's car and "threatening to smash in the windows if they did not comply." www.wfla.com/news/judge-i...

Trump's National Guard deployments have cost over $473 MILLION.
A disgusting misuse of federal resources, taxpayer dollars, and US troops’ service.
Doing this while firing federal workers and kicking millions off of healthcare is just the cherry on top of the dumpster fire that is the Trump admin.
