Wonder how MAGA folks feel now that Trump is outsourcing good quality white citizenship positions to outside countries

Trump proposes a bill where there's no tax on tips, senior social security, and overtime.

Underrated part of this presidency is that he just completely throws everyone else in his administration under the bus. First time around was “we can’t get anything done well because they won’t support our coalition” now it’s “we can’t get anything done well because our coalition is f***ing rětardẽd”. Just fantastic messaging all around

new FEMA head, another stellar hire from the merit-only guys
look at this obvious villian ffs

"The new head of the federal agency tasked with responding to disasters across the country warned staff in a meeting Friday not to try to impede upcoming changes, saying that 'I will run right over you' while also suggesting policy changes that would push more responsibilities to the states.

David Richardson, a former Marine Corps officer who served in Afghanistan, Iraq and Africa, was named acting administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency on Thursday just after Cameron Hamilton, who’d been leading the agency, also in an acting role, was fired.

Richardson has been the Department of Homeland Security’s assistant secretary for countering weapons of mass destruction. He does not appear to have any experience in managing natural disasters, but in an early morning call with the entire agency staff he said that the agency would stick to its mission and said he’d be the one interpreting any guidance from President Donald Trump.

Prefacing his comments with the words 'Now this is the tough part,' Richardson said during the call with staffers across the thousands-strong agency that he understands people can be nervous during times of change. But he had a warning for those who might not like the changes — a group he estimated to be about 20% of any organization.

'Don’t get in my way if you’re those 20% of the people,' he said. 'I know all the tricks.'

'Obfuscation. Delay. Undermining. If you’re one of those 20% of the people and you think those tactics and techniques are going to help you, they will not because I will run right over you,' he said. 'I will achieve the president’s intent. I am as bent on achieving the president’s intent as I was on making sure that I did my duty when I took my Marines to Iraq.'"

...

"Homeland Security has not said specifically why Hamilton was removed from his position. But his dismissal came one day after he appeared before a House subcommittee where he was asked about plans to eliminate FEMA and said he did not believe the agency should be eliminated."

...

"'This individual testified saying something that was contrary to what the president believes and the goals of this administration in regards to FEMA policy. So of course we want to makes sure that people in every position are advancing the administration’s goals,' [White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt] said."

Stephen Miller: "The writ of habeas corpus can be suspended in a time of invasion. So I would say that's an option we're actively looking at."
