In 2017, the Trump administration had turnover in 2 cabinet positions & 35% of senior staff posts. In 2025, there have been no cabinet changes & 29% senior staff turnover. That’s still much higher than other recent administrations, according to a Brookings analysis. www.npr.org/2026/01/20/n...

One perverse aspect of Trump calling up the D.C. National Guard while crime plummets to a 30-year-low: Trump REFUSED to call up the D.C. Guard on Jan. 6 to counter an insurrection that he himself incited. If Congress won't give D.C. statehood, at least give us control over our National Guard.

No, it's not only the US who will suffer from RFK Jr cancelling vaccine research. 1️⃣ You can't just instantly teleport research projects. Cancelling US projects slows global progress. 2️⃣ Preventing pandemics will always be a group project. The US is letting the team down & putting the world at risk.

Some folks haven’t spent decades fighting a GOP-dominated government and it shows… The GOP always lies. They are corrupted by big donors. They cover up both lies and corruption. They never admit to any wrongdoing. They project their illegal activity on to the other side. Rinse. Repeat.

If you actually support Trump, just a reminder that it still won't save you. For him this may be a subtle threat to deport Musk, but it's still a threat Eventually, whenever you finally disagree with him, he'll turn the alligators on you. It's a dictatorship. No one is safe.
