So denaturalize and deport Elon Musk and Peter Thiel, both of whom are public charges and security risks who undermine domestic tranquility and routinely promote radical foreign ideologies incompatible with America's pluralistic, scholarly, and secular traditions.
Trump: “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries … denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.“

More and more elite Republicans are realizing that their interests and Donald Trump's are diverging, which is why we'll see more of them breaking with him in the coming days.

I'm SO very tired of the "Americans don't even notice anymore" narrative from the talking heads.
Americans DO notice.
And we're fucking. Furious. Daily.

Don't confuse what media picks up/highlights, or the duration it stays in the news cycle, for what Americans notice and/or care about.
If Joe Biden had claimed that he redesigned the hulls of Coast Guard cutters, we'd be way over in 25th amendment territory.
With Trump, it's so common that most Americans don't even notice it now.
Trump during his Thanksgiving call with service members: "We're ordered a lot of Coast Guard cutters. Brand new, beautiful, the best machines in the world. I'm a looks person. I wanted the hull to be perfect. You know, I sort of redesigned the hull a little bit. The hulls. But we ordered a lot."

The FBI wants to interview six Democratic military veterans who urged servicemembers to follow the law. Here’s a radical idea:

The Democratic members should simply refuse to cooperate with such madness. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Federal law enforcement has taken an interest in the “illegal orders” video. Should the relevant lawmakers cooperate with the probe?

Such classic gaslighting it's an instructive moment. The question is not whether generic is better or worse, it's that a list with more expensive brand names is not the same as a list with cheaper generics. Perverting that truth into an attack on those calling it out is Manipulation 101.
Hassett: "On one of the Sunday shows, the anchor criticized the fact Walmart said the Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper by about $10. Then he said, 'Oh yeah, but they substituted generic stuff,' as if having a generic something is a crime for ordinary folks! It shows how out of touch these people are."

What happens when someone defies an order, reports it to the office of Senator Mark Kelly who assured them of their protection on national television, and then it turns out Mark Kelly disagrees and decides it is legal because the person isn’t charismatic enough to be used for media attention?

The military has a duty to refuse unlawful orders, but Congress has a duty to remove from office a president and secretary who would issue such orders. There is something off about members of Congress talking about the former while refusing to say the latter, the part that's actually their job here.
