I'm no expert, but this seems like a good sign. Some power sharing now happening in #Syria

Amazing what has happened since a severely weakened Russia stopped propping up Assad. Some credit goes to #Zalenskyy , #Biden and all the other nations supporting #Ukraine fight against Putin's war machine.

The first #Trump admin & the #Biden admin characterized #China as the greatest threat to the #US & postured the force to prepare for & deter conflict in the Pacific region. But #Hegseth’s guidance is extraordinary in its description of the potential invasion of #Taiwan as the exclusive animating scenario that must be prioritized over other potential dangers—reorienting the vast US #military architecture toward the Indo-Pacific region beyond homeland defense.

During the #Biden admin, the #US military & #NATO had both started to treat #GlobalWarming in the Arctic as a matter of real #military concern. Whether that will continue under #Trump is an open question [is it?]. Even as Trump has tried to erase US-govt action on #ClimateChange, when he talks about #Greenland, he’s tacitly acknowledging that rising temperatures are rapidly changing that part of the world—& US interests there.

#Republicans continue to support #tariffs and #tax on benefits with zero evidence their methods will produce any positive effects.
In fact, the evidence pointing to historical errors are profound.

All this hope based on nothing is awesome. I only wish Democrats had half as much hope to invest US national security on. #Biden and #Obama handed Trump a stable economy and Republicans are hell bent on economic destruction.

I thought they were trying to save money 🤔

Under #Trump, the #Consumer #FinancialProtection Bureau #CFPB has dropped nearly a dozen enforcement cases brought during the #Biden admin, ending lawsuits against #banks & #lenders for a variety of financial practices that the #watchdog agency no longer considers #illegal.

But on Wed, the bureau went a step further: It is seeking to GIVE BACK $105k that a #mortgage lender paid to settle #racial #discrimination claims….

Russell Vought, the acting director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, criticized the case against Townstone Financial, which the agency had brought during President Trump’s first term.

Guess who did know… Did you guess Obama? Did you guess Biden?

“The plan, apparently backed by the Biden administration and involving US oil giant Chevron would in effect seal Palestinian energy dependence on Israel.

The US approach is consistent with a strategic framework described in a December 2014 report published under the Obama administration by the US Army War College’s Strategic Studies Institute.”

Finally #Trump responds to a question about the #Signal group chat, but pivots to #propaganda about the success of his admin & the attack — oh & of course finds a way to blame #Biden.

Then “Witch-hunt” “Witch-hunt” “Witch-hunt”

Trump even says “what does #Hegseth have to do with it? He’s doing a great job.”

Oh & then he blamed Signal saying it was broken, didn’t blame his #NationalSecurity ofcls for using it though.

"A list circulating inside the #Energy Dept suggests cutting funding for the development of 4 hydrogen production hubs in mostly Dem-leaning states while maintaining funding for 3 hubs spread across mostly red states...

The cuts, if carried through, would politicize the federal funds that #Congress and the #Biden administration awarded to 7 regional applicants as part of the bipartisan #infrastructure law."

Trump found the limits to the federal executive as #Republicans face more than 60 court injunctions in their first 100 days.
#SCOTUS
"#impeachment is not an appropriate response to disagreement concerning a judicial decision. The normal appellate review process exists for that purpose,” #Roberts said.
"President Barack #Obama 12 injunctions during his administration. #Trump administration 64 and President Joe #Biden 14, according to a study by Harvard Law Review."

#Trump’s crackdown on #lawyers is having a chilling effect on his opponents’ ability to defend themselves or challenge his actions….

#Biden-era ofcls said they’re having trouble finding #lawyers willing to defend them. The volunteers & small nonprofits forming the ground troops of the #legal resistance to #Trump admin actions say that the well-resourced #LawFirms that once would have backed them are now steering clear.

Much is being said about the #Signal group chat in terms of #opsec and #nationalsecurity.

But little notice has been given to the contents of that discussion. The mystifying hatred of #Europe, the relentless focus on what Pres #Biden did or did not do — I’m no expert in these things but that cannot be normal.

Professionals involved in a serious business — say, planning the #bombing of another country — focus on the matter at hand. This sounded more like a locker room conversation among a bunch of teenaged boys.

Even setting aside the #security aspects, the sheer #incompetence and #unprofessionalism on display should disqualify every one of them from any serious job, in or outside the #government.
