Why would anyone who is a patriot and loves this country do this?

Because Trump isn’t a patriot and doesn’t love this country. And together we must stop him.
Three things that make the U.S. the envy of the world:

1) Professionalized military with strong norm of civilian control

2) Higher education and cutting-edge scientific research

3) Ability to welcome immigrants and attract the “best and the brightest”

All three are under threat.

This is direct theft of taxpayer money for political purposes. It is literally stealing.
$200 million taxpayer dollars spent on “tell me I’m pretty” ads to stroke his own ego, while he fires people to “save money.”

Sociopathic.

Reading the suit filed by three #Quaker yearly meetings (including mine!) and two monthly meetings, challenging recent ICE/CBP raids on houses of worship. The highlighted line below struck me as especially powerful.

Please remember that this administration is not “the government.” They are not governing. The government is not the bad guy. Trump and the oligarchs are the bad guys. They are dismantling “the government.”

Dems please take note.
This is how you say “go fuck yourself sideways with a porcupine” in inspector general speak.

Going to be interesting to see how the administration responds

Biden’s presidency concludes tomorrow, but his final week has been nothing short of historic: 2,500 commutations and a ceasefire deal between Israel and Gaza mark the end of his consequential term.
