Looks like Trump forgot to fire this DEI hire.

Good for him!

You can't be this naive...

Trump and Musk have destroyed an entire state agency and damaged several more despite not having any right to do so, and yet they did so.

I guarantee you, if Trump said "No amputee onboard my ISS" or Musk said "No amputee onboard my rocket", no amputee would leave the ground in a New York minute.

They've yet to actually cause any international incidents. The second they actually follow through on any of that rhetoric, I'll believe you.

Sadly, I believe you won't have to wait long to believe me. Vance is working his hillbilly ass off to create a diplomatic incident in Munich as we speak.
