Ignoring the Supreme Court.

Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?"

Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

The great thing about fighting back against this stuff is that if you end up losing anyway you get the same outcome you’d have gotten from complying but you don’t have to fucking hate yourself too.

Republicans have the numbers to impeach Trump in the House and convict him in the Senate. From here on out, they are complicit with everything he does.

I mentions this now because we need to make sure every American knows that Trump/Musk's DOGE isn't intended to improve critical government services (e.g., by cutting "waste"); the goal isn't efficiency - it's evisceration.

The ominous question is how many people do realize that...and approve.
