It’s important to remember WHY Trump/musk (Trusk? 🤔) are doing this. It’s to “prove” government doesn’t work & should be privatized. Thats why republicans are silent, this is their wet dream & if we all lose our rights, who cares? They have their money.

Gee @wsj.com I guess this is what happens when you endorse an idiot for president
Wall Street Journal Editorial Board:
“Who decided to leave Robert F. Kennedy Jr. home alone at the Health and Human Services Department? Without adults to supervise the Secretary, he’s damaging public trust in immunizations, and now the CDC has been conscripted into his anti-vaccine campaign”

I've had a missile blow up next to my airplane, been shot at dozens of times by anti-aircraft fire, and launched into orbit — all for my country. I never thought I'd see a President call for my execution.

This is the law. Passed down from our Founding Fathers, to ensure our military upholds its oath to the Constitution — not a king. Given Stephen Miller is directing much of a military policy, he should buff up on the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

In Texas, rumor has it that the existing & new “GOP seats” are lean Republican vs. solid republican which means there is room for flipping more seats if there’s a blue wave. I’d guess it’s the same in other states.
Trump's corrupt scheme to rig 2026 is suddenly falling apart:
*Court strikes down Texas GOP gerrymander
*Indiana GOP lacks votes to redraw map
*Big Dem win in Virginia could give Ds more seats
