#DJT uses #DOJ HQ as a makeshift #Drumpf rally stage today in front of top US #LawEnforcement officials. Pam Bondi intro's him with personal note that dept's sworn officers "will never stop fighting for him". President ranted into the mic today referring to dept lawyers previously targeted his criminality as the "Department of Injustice". He spent his time inside the Robert F. Kennedy bldg addressing hiis personal attorneys who are now the dept's leadership, lambasting #disloyal media figures as "scum" whose comments should be "illegal".

"During a tirade against the FBI, the president touted his actions to revoke security clearances for those who had investigated him and the removal of FBI agents associated with Jan. 6 investigations" then he falsely claimed that the prices of gas and eggs have fallen when they have not.

He called participants in previous #SpecialCounsel #RussiaInvestigation as "violent" and ended on a note referencing the pullout of troops out of #Afghanistan that "the people who did this to us should go to jail, they should go to jail. So, I just want to say, God bless America because we have to say God bless. We're lucky we're still here."

Yesterday a #Federal judge barred parts of an insane illegal heavy handed and chilling childlike #DJT #ExecutiveOrder targeting exclusively employees and clients of a large influential #DC #beltway #lawfirm he doesn't like.

Known as #PerkinsCoie , the 100+ yr old firm
started in #Seattle and has long represented that region's top tech clients including #Amazon & #Microsoft etc, as well as many other #Fortune500 names .

The #RWNJ #HoiPolloi anger at the firm has to do with the fact #PerkinsCoie attorneys helped commission the embarrassing and disputed #SteeleDossier that included allegations against a failed NJ casino operator turned political candidate.who became President TWICE!

The far reaching petty #policestate and draconian #Drumpf overreach would've made it virtually impossible for #employees or any of the 1000+ #attorneys at the firm to do biz in #DC . The order barred firm partners from even speaking to #federalemployees, or to physically enter any govt #property including #courtrooms etc.

#WaPo #editorial by Catherine Rampell who is headed to #MSNBC to co-host the evening edition of "The Weekend" details #Drumpf's petty purges of accessible govt #data that " have been faster and more sweeping — picking off not just select #factoids but entire troves of public information." "deleting #taxpayer-funded data — information that Americans use to make sense of the world. In its absence, the president can paint the world as he pleases."

The Washington Post · How Trump is hiding government data to reshape realityBy Amanda Shendruk, Catherine Rampell

Wonder if anyone on the right is willing to stand up & openly admit their buyers remorse over their #StableGenius #drumpf ?

"Wall Street suffered its steepest decline of the year on Monday, as investors were gripped by angst about the economy a day after President Trump refused to rule out the possibility that his policies could trigger a recession."

CA #AttorneyGeneral updates taxpayers on recent legal challenges he has staff filing against #DJT #WreckingBall operations that are destroying lives students at schools cut off from previously awarded grant money, as well as tens of thousands impacted as US govt workers are illegally terminated through no fault of their own. Their abrupt, pretextual firings have already caused a 149% increase in state #unemployment benefit claims by federal workers in #California alone.

CA's #DOJ secured two important preliminary #injunctions this week against the #WhiteHouse. One prevents the #Drumpf Admin from freezing near $3 trillion in vital federal #funding intended for public #safety, #healthcare, childcare, and #infrastructure projects before the case is heard.

See a list of recent actions of California Dept of Justice has taken to defend citizens from abused of power, unwarranted persecution and firings by federal authorities at their official state website

Watching some videos of the Drumpf drama.

Nebraska voted overwhelmingly in favor of the Orange Shit Stain. Turns out the state workforce is approximately 70% undocumented workers who have now fled the state.

Now there's nobody to work their farms or cattle ranches.

Nebraska is expected to go bankrupt in 6 months.

Great example of #FAFO

As #MelonHusk #SiegHeils up a war on US #GOV employees and departmental missions, his #ElectricCar company share price has been tanking. Tesla's downward spiraling stock price hit lowest point since last #DJT term, as shares have dropped ~28% in February alone.

Overall recent data from late last month showed overall drop in market valuation far exceeds overall Nasdaq avg which was down just 1.5%

CEO's petulant and polarizing presence, #Drumpf import #tariffs, slower sale$ (especially in #EU) and public's steadily sinking sentiment sink #shareprice of once high flying e-car maker.

speaking as a professional clown, i object to this depiction.

clowns are highly trained profesionals, with years of technique and practice, whose job it is to entertain people.

#drumpf and his cronies are feckless clods with no experience or practice, and they do EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE of entertaining people. 😒

come up with some other way to define these shitheads.

real clowns don't like being included with these people. 🤡👎👎
