This is how it’s done.
Gov. Mills: I’ll comply with the state and federal laws

Trump: We are the federal law. You better do it because you’re not going to get any federal funds.

This would be completely illegal. But you wouldn’t know that from reading this post, the headline, or the lede. Unbelievably bad.

Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Mitch McConnell voting no on terrible cabinet picks because he doesn’t have to run for reelection is all the proof you need that we must have term limits. You shouldn’t only have a spine because you don’t have to run again. We are breeding chicken shit power hungry electeds.

I know it’s overwhelming to see Trump waging war on civil servants and replacing with loyalists, but remember we’ve seen this before. It was called the “Spoils System” when Presidents in the 1800s rewarded “their people” with jobs. Guess what happened…corruption exploded. THREAD
