JD Vance blames Chuck Schumer for the fact that the White House mistakenly laid off key public health officials, including those dealing with measles and ebola.
The Trump regime's message is: We demand total power, but we're not responsible for anything.

BRENNAN: CBS confirmed the Trump administration rescinded the layoffs of CDC scientists. Some were involved with the federal measles response. How does a mistake like this happen?

VANCE: The govt shutdown inevitably leads to some chaos. It happened because of Schumer

B: But this was a WH decision

So now the Administration are saying that the mass firing of CDC scientists, including many responsible for preventing outbreaks, was an “error” and many will be brought back.

Whether by intention or incompetence, dismantling public health will kill people.

Pope Leo quotes Hannah Arendt:

“The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction and the distinction between true and false no longer exist."

When you comply with illegal orders it is very likely to continue.

Deeper you go and it occurs to you.

DOJ’s indictments against Trump were built on months of investigation and pages of hard evidence.

Trump’s new indictments against Comey and Tish James? Six pages. Contrived counts. No case.

Justice must come from the facts and the evidence — not Trump’s feelings.

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

How many times did Trump go bankrupt?

How many contractors and lawyers did he stiff?

These layoffs are illegal and will be challenged in court. Keep resisting, Democrats.
Tweet from The Washington Post reads: “Breaking news: The Trump administration began laying off federal workers while the government is shuttered, fulfilling threats from President Trump to take advantage of the closure to shave off more parts of the federal workforce he dislikes.” Below is an image of Donald Trump speaking. Caption: “Trump administration begins laying off federal workers…”
