For an administration that is so by the book on immigration and claims of law and order, why is it defending itself so much in the courts and flaunting laws and procedures? They seem love paying lawyers.
Would like to make America, America again and this isn’t it…

Yes, military troops in the streets will deter crime, no argument. What happens when they leave? Solutions comes from the community which troops will not provide. The administration isn’t interested in solutions, just optics and demonstrations of power.

Has Donald ever been to a Cracker Barrel? What the heck does he care what their logo is? Getting too involved in everyday public life like an authoritarian would. Soon he’ll tell us what church to go to, where to buy gas, what to eat. I bet it’ll all be named Trump-something.

You cannot be serious. How expedited could these plans possibly be?

Before Alice in Wonderland was a children’s story it was political satire about tyranny. “Off with their heads” screamed a displeased queen. Looks like the Colonies hasn’t strayed far from their ancient British parent. Don’t like the data? You’re fired. No matter, we respect you Erika McEntarfer.

The U.S., its agencies and labs were the envy of the world, relied upon for authoritative, timely, and accurate information. Imperfect but without equal. Indiscriminate cuts and poor judgement have destroyed value. This administration is walking away from our very hard-earned global leadership role.

What is impressive about today’s #nokings turnout is the variety of reasons for protest. Tyranny, healthcare, immigration, democracy, graft, due process, education, lies, rule of law, vindictiveness, incompetence. Impressive these have been combined all into one administration in under 6 months.

My understanding now is that a large violent mob invading the US Capitol and trying to hunt down members of Congress is not worthy of Federal action but protestors who are likely doing some property damage is, without the request of state and local government. Do I have that right?

Just announced: University of Michigan Faculty Senate resoundingly votes to support Big Ten academic mutual defense compact. 92.8% of over 3,000 votes.

Federal agents and military, I understand you’re following orders, but aren’t these orders starting to bug you yet? Don’t you feel like you’re doing something wrong yet? Lawyers of the DOJ are stepping aside and resisting political appointees, other branches need to do so as well.

The bully got punched in the nose, several times, and had to backdown each time. Deport without due process, act tough against China, talk tough against Chair Powell… isn’t his nose sore yet?

So incredible the Administration is ready to go after antisemitism! Let’s get to work on the home grown kind.

In the 90’s I believed government should strive for efficiency. I liked the idea of a businessperson as President, e.g. Steve Forbes. This is wrong. Government officials must demonstrate empathy for the people they watch over. Efficiency cannot be ruthless and should err on the side of generosity.

Congress, time for you to do something! Have you not seen enough yet??? OMG

Look at everything this administration has accomplished in a mere 3 months!

Our economic advisors and administration, probably in the age group that would have been in this class with Ferris, must have missed this lecture. That’s what happens when you ditch class and go hang with your buddy Ferris.

Tariffs like these raise prices and don't work. But if you skipped class the day we all learned that – here's a refresher:

Wow, who is advising on this economic policy? When identified, I think POTUS has found the next person to fire. Even if it’s just a negotiation strategy, surely you could have used a less destructive one…

America has never been subject to this level of authoritarianism, and quite frankly, sheer incompetence. Out of the ashes, this moment should radicalize us to embark on an era of new reform — of our economy, our democracy, and our commitment to social justice and the law.

When will the administration’s proclamations end and legislation begin? If the concepts are to endure the test of time, they should be publicly debated by the people’s representatives and made law.

Let’s see, grabbing people off the street, taking people from their homes in the middle of the night, denying basic due process, insulting well respected media outlets, punishing dissent that is sounding a lot like tyranny.

The problem isn’t Waltz adding the wrong person to a chat, it’s Hegesth not understanding that he cannot share that info on a commercial platform as well as using an unsecured device. Literally information handling 101 concepts.
