Dear America,
You know how I know you don’t know how to run the whole government and you need experts to do most of it for you? I can’t even get a handful of people in the entire country to *read their municipal budget.* And that’s fine, until we let morons carve up your government.

Yep, that pretty much sums it up.
All DOGE accomplished was purging critical government staff, handing private data to outsiders, and sentencing thousands in developing countries to death by gutting USAID.

The Founding Fathers required Senate confirmation for key appointments for a reason. Donald Trump doesn’t like that reason. It’s to ensure high ranking government officials are loyal to the country not just the president. That’s not what Trump wants. joycevance.substack.com/p/explanatio...

There is so much wrong with the statement from the department formerly known as Defense it’s hard to know where to begin. The biggest, imho, problem is the suggestion individual servicemembers cannot honor their *individual legal obligation* to refuse illegal orders.
The Trump administration is abusing the military justice system to target its political opponents. A despicable new low for a group that strives everyday to find the moral bottom.

Imagine any job, where one person demanded death for their coworkers from the branch office for simply posting a video about maintaining lawful conduct.
They’d be fired.
Now imagine that same person was already a felon, and associated themselves with a convicted pedophile.
They’d be fired.

This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

The “deal” deprives Ukraine of everything it has won by withstanding Russian aggression and defending the borders of Europe.
It rewards Russian lawlessness—and makes America complicit in the lawlessness.
It’s the end of post WWII American power.
