The damage caused by Trump’s Administration will probably not be repaired in my lifetime. Some of the damage, like children dying from preventable diseases cannot ever be undone.
The Trump administration has tapped a former Louisiana health official who ordered a stop to promotions of mass vaccination events last winter to be the CDC's new principal deputy director.

The draft dodging idiot posted a pic of this West Point plaque. It contains these words:
“Our American Code of Military Obedience requires that, should orders and the law ever conflict, our officers must obey the law.”
That is precisely what Senator Mark Kelly told officers to do. #NoSedition

When my father died, I received this flag from the VA to honor his WWII service. As my Navy retirement approached, this flag flew over the USS Constitution on 19 January 2017. The date was carefully chosen.

Stop the threats of execution, hanging, and sending a mob before someone gets hurt.

Trump is now amplifying posts calling Members of Congress “traitors,” “communists,” and “domestic terrorists.” His amplification of “get all those traitorous sons of bitches” is an escalation that increases the real-world risk to the people he is targeting. This is how political violence is primed.

Trump shared a QAnon slogan—“the military is the only way”—and imagery calling for “military tribunals.” Combined with calling for the execution of Members of Congress, this is an extraordinary authoritarian escalation and a grave threat to constitutional rule.

The move to strip whistleblower protections is the latest step in weaponizing the state—replacing neutral guardrails with fear and retaliation. Civil-service neutrality is a cornerstone of nat’l sec. Gutting whistleblower protections pushes the U.S. further toward a loyalty-based state.

President Donald Trump's administration is close to implementing a rule that would end long-standing legal protections for whistleblowers among senior federal employees, according to documents reviewed by Reuters, prompting backlash from lawyers representing government workers.

During Trump’s first term, some cabinet members were competent. They did not tend to last long. Now, I cannot name a single cabinet member who a reasonable person would call competent or trustworthy.
