Obama: Imagine if I had done any of this. Imagine if I had pulled Fox Newsโ credentials. Imagine if I had said to law firms that you will not be allowed into government buildings.
Itโs unimaginable that the same parties that are silent now would have tolerated behavior like that from me

It gets worse.
This Signal situation is just the tip of the iceberg of incompetence in this administration.
The latest crazy just proves what we all know. They are discussing everything on Signal to avoid any discovery or FOIA or archival laws. So illegal but here we are.
Undocumented immigrants pay nearly $100B in taxes and receive no benefits or representation. Trump is about to explode the deficit by using the SSA to find and deport them. www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/20...

Why would anyone who wasnโt an asset of the Russian government do this?
Why would any decent human being do this?
โI served in the US Navy for 25 years-I spent 15 years at NASA, risking my life flying the space shuttle. And the only oath I can think of that maybe Elon Musk has sworn is an oath to his own checking account, to his pocketbookโan oath, maybe, to ruining the lives of Veterans.โ Sen. Mark Kelly

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"
The Trump administration has begun firing several hundred Federal Aviation Administration employees, upending staff on a busy air travel weekend and just weeks after a January fatal mid-air collision at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.
The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?
This is what oligarchy looks like.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS IN CASE OF ICE: CONOCE TUS DERECHOS EN CASO DE ENCUENTRO CON ICE:
DO NOT OPEN YOUR DOOR. ICE cannot enter your home without a warrant signed by a judge. Tell the agents to show you the warrant by sliding it under the door. NO ABRAS TU PUERTA. ICE no puede entrar a tu casa sin una orden firmada por un juez. Diles a los agentes que te muestren la orden deslizรกndola debajo de la puerta.
ASK THEM TO LEAVE. If ICE doesn't have a warrant, tell them you do not consent for them to enter your home and ask them to leave. At work, ICE cannot enter employee-only areas without permission. 2 PรDALES QUE SE VAYAN. Si ICE no tiene una orden judicial, diles que no das tu consentimiento para que entren a tu casa y pรญdeles que se vayan. En el trabajo, ICE no puede ingresar a รกreas exclusivas para empleados sin permiso.
REMAIN SILENT. You have the right to remain silent. If the agents ask you questions, tell them, "I wish to remain silent." PERMANECE EN SILENCIO. Tienes derecho a permanecer en silencio. Si los agentes te hacen preguntas, diles: "Deseo permanecer en silencio".
It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.
EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.
