Serious question, because this is where we’re headed… Who’s going to hold Donald Trump and Elon Musk accountable if he defies court rulings? Who’s going to stop him?

I realized today that Trump, Musk, DOGE, Vance, Miller, Vought and their many collaborators have broken so many laws already that they know they have to destroy our government and entire way of life to stay out of jail. This is all or nothing. We should respond accordingly.

Hypocrite! Republicans of today have no sense of decency... no shame. When those are gone, the society does not have a basic tool to "force" people in power to change their ways. Without "shame" public opinion is toothless.

Trump’s new order isn’t about justice, it’s about reviving apartheid-era policies. Cutting aid to South Africa and prioritizing white Afrikaner refugees is white supremacy in action. This is “Making Apartheid Great Again.” We’ve seen this before. History can’t repeat itself. #StopTheHate

NEW: Trump describes Gaza as a “demolition site” whilst sitting next to the indicted war criminal who demolished it. He then explains he wants to clear Gaza of Palestinians and find them somewhere else to live. Presumably to hand Gaza to Israel. It’s US-backed ethnic cleansing.

I can not get over the fact that we would have RFK Jr become head of HHS when he mislead a measles outbreak in Somoa that killed people by his ant-vax stance. He’s been paid millions of dollars to stroke fear and mistrust in vaccines. He is a danger to American Health.

Tariffs are apparently on the way. The reason is stated to be increased fentanyl surveillance at the borders. That goalpost will move. "Agriculture, automobiles and energy suppliers, pillars of all three economies, would be upended by blanket tariffs."
Trump at his desk.  

Nyt headline: 

"How Could Trump’s Tariffs Affect the U.S., Canada and Mexico?
While much about the threatened tariffs is still unclear, experts predict they would be bad news for all three economies, with few winners."
