INCOMPETENCE OF NUCLEAR PROPORTIONS

Trump officials fired nuclear staff not realizing they oversee the country’s weapons stockpile. Now, they are rushing to rescind their terminations.

Warren is the ranking member on the Senate Banking Committee. Wyden is the same on the Senate Finance Committee. They need to go to the Treasury building with crews from CNN and NBC and demand to be let in. As soon as they're not, hold a press conference right there and explain what DOGE is doing.

REPEAT THIS:

👉 “The GOP is owned by billionaires who get richer while you get poorer.”

👉 “Your rent is high because corporations price-gouge and Republicans let them.”

👉 “They want you mad at immigrants, not at the billionaires outsourcing your job for more profits.”

The freezing of federal grants, the firing of all inspector generals, the immunization of political violence - does everybody not see what’s happening?

In a blitzkrieg, Trump is trying to collapse our democracy - and probably our economy - and seize control.

Call it what it is.

At the EPA, employees hired within the past year have been notified that “the agency reserves the right to terminate you immediately,” without justification. Reports suggest that demonstrating loyalty to the current administration’s agenda may improve the chances of retaining employment.

Elon sent out another email tonight to federal employees, urging us to resign by February 6. The memo was similar to the one received on Tuesday. As with the previous message, this latest communication fails to address concerns about pensions.

I love this. If we are to survive as a society and thrive as a nation we must have empathy.

Holding these words in my heart and summoning bravery and action: " It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope."
Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

The HHS nominee is a dangerous science-denying conspiracy nut.

The FBI nominee pleaded the 5th to his involvement in criminal conspiracies and has fund raised for violent insurrectionists.

The DNI nominee is a Russian asset.

...and here we are, doubtful if anything can be done to stop them.
