Trump’s America

Leader of the Coast Guard. Three hours to vacate her house. Cruelty is the point.
 

“President Donald Trump's administration evicted former Coast Guard Commandant Linda Fagan from her home with three hours of notice on Tuesday — not even enough time to gather her personal effects — according to two people familiar with the incident. 

Fagan, a four-star admiral and the first woman to lead a branch of the military, was removed from her post as the Coast Guard’s top officer on Trump’s second day in office. Officials at the Homeland Security Department — which oversees the Coast Guard — cited border security issues and an “excessive focus” ondiversity, equity and inclusion among the reasons for her dismissal.”

It so ironic that the maga idiot thought she was addressing misinformation when in fact she’s spreading it.

What a paragraph 

 

"Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on social media that he would not attend a meeting of foreign ministers from the Group of 20 in South Africa later this month, days after President Trump made false claims about land seizures in the country. Rubio cited what he called South Africa’s focus on diversity, equity and inclusion, and climate change."

Jesus, little Marco is such a spineless worm.

Yeah, that screed was ridiculously false, starting with the "world court" bullshit.  Good work.

Much of the pain is actually hitting the gravy seals and as long as he’s like ‘look over there!’  And points to some executive order that really doesn’t even carry weight, the gravy seals will just take the pain and move on.  It’s hilarious seeing it.

Last week, regional managers for the General Services Administration, or GSA, received a message from the agency’s Washington headquarters to begin terminating leases on all of the roughly 7,500 federal offices nationwide, according to an email shared with The Associated Press by a GSA employee.

 

Saw this, and started thinking about how many post offices are leased.

The Postal Service maintains more than 25,300 leased spaces in its facilities inventory nation wide. Below is the current national listing of leased postal facilities which includes all fifty States and U.S. Territories.
 

 

FYI, my wife's agency is in a leased space owned by a major  Trump donor.  I'm pretty sure that lease will not be cancelled.

how the fuck are they supposed to return to office when there's no office to return to?

Plenty of office space in the DC area available. Just got to pay a premium. Lerner will be buying an English soccer team soon.

This is a full out attack on the government’s ability to do anything. Laws are words on paper- they have to be implemented and enforced by people. These attacks are intended to destroy our government’s ability to function. It’s sabotage and will be costly if not impossible to undo

True snowflakes won't be watching the Superbowl because they might see Taylor.

My kid codes super bowl ads for broadcast, and the price for an ad is almost double from last year because people might see Taylor. The fix is in at a $1m/ half second.

Yuge surpise. Trump selling out our elections to Russia & China.

Trump’s Justice Department shutters specialized FBI team combatting foreign election interference threats

The shuttering of the FBI Foreign Influence Task Force and planned reassigning of team members follows a directive from incoming US Attorney General Pam Bondi dissolving the team.

Their focus, per their mandate is mainly domestic. they already closed down the State Department group that did that.

That office got reorganized but will likely get killed completely.  And the FBI under DJT is also not going to go after FARA violations or pursue criminal charges for export violations. They also disbanded the unit for national security corporate enforcement.

Well, it appears the election interference came from inside the house this time so I guess we've got that going for us ...

It makes sense if there won't be any future elections in which to interfere.

There will be elections, but any state that goes GOP for governor, SOS, or on the Supreme Court is never going back at this point. Look at NC, the GOP retook the state Supreme Court and is now in the process of throwing out votes to give a Republican a seat they lost. This is why the Democratic holds in the 2022 midterms were so important. 

Hold key Governor, AG, SOS, and Supreme Court positions in WI, MI, PA, AZ, and NV in 2026 and you live to fight another day. The path to 270 at least exists in 2028. Lost them and it's over.
