I scanned the transcript as I can’t listen right now…I do like that DOGE becomes “doggy” when reading! 😆

Kim, I pronounce it "douche". 😁

DOGEverything is illegal. NO DOUBT. The courts have spoken. Civil contempt findings are next.

So, when is Trump going to start tossing all his loyalists under the bus? Everything Trump touches dies. The Constitution only matters if it is enforced......

Aren't Mr. Trump's actions and activities considered some kind of tyranny against the US government ?? The man is seriously unhinged..."doggie" and it's handler should be "put down"

for distemper, also.

Well, yeah, they sure are, some kind & all kinds of wrong! The criminal being granted immunity leaves way too much open to interpretation, it's like giving an arsonist unlimited gas & a flame thrower. Of all the intolerable things he's doing, threatening our very lives, I don't know why, but him taking documents bothers me a lot. These are not his personal property, our lives are not his property, this country is not his! Put them down, I wholeheartedly agree.

Dear Heather, As many people, I am desperately worried for Ukraine. What do you think about finding a way to support the sort of War Bonds we had during WWII?

Stacey Jenkins's avatar

Thank you Heather. Just watched Politics Girl asking where all our past presidents, vice presidents, Generals and former heads of state, I do wonder as well. It is bonkers both parties need to come together.

A few questions come to mind ; where’s Amy Gleason, why are we paying for golf outings while firing people, why is Congress “asking” Musk for money, why aren’t the tariffs helping and why is Trump not looking at the stock market ? Enjoy the weekend 🥴

Thanks you for another excellent update with context. The best.

We like reading Heather’s email - don’t need the extra email about listening to her! Thanks!!

June Fong's avatar

I love listening to her and generally also listen the day after I've read her posts....

Then don't listen. Not that big a deal in the whole totality of life.

You can change notifications in your settings. I have to go to Substack in an external browser, not the app, to manage subscriptions, it's probably not something handled here in comments. Substack has tech support, too, but probably you want to shut off the audio in subscription settings.

The extra email is more updated info that is not in the newsletter.

Furious that Trump may remove TPS status and deport 240,000 Ukrainian refugees- all here as financially independent, tax paying, and had already paid about $2000 of fees, plus receiving an affidavit from an

American to come here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What legal avenues are there to prevent this? Please advise.

Thank you

Another crazy story emerging this morning. In a bid to remove all references to DEI from Pentagon records, 26,000 images that have been flagged for removal across every military branch. They include an image of the B-29 aircraft Enola Gay, which dropped the world’s first atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan, during the second world war - 'Gay' being the trigger word! What next? - https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/mar/07/military-images-trump-dei

Isn't that upsetting, that they're screwing up our records of history? Unreal.

Stalin was pretty good at this. Just imagine what he could have accomplished with AI -

majority /mə-jôr′ĭ-tē, -jŏr′-/

a number more than half of the total.

2024 Election Results

Trump 77,302,580 49.8%

Others* 78,324,188 50.2

There was no majority for Trump. There is no mandate.

There is only chaos.

*Democrats, Greens, Libertarians, Independents, Others

The total was 156,300 +. Trump can say he won the most of any single candidate but not the majority of the votes. He won a plurality of the votes, but almost half- which counts for something. Also the Harris votes, a hefty majority of the rest counts for something too. Harris won nearly 75% of the rest. So Democrats and others should definitely not keep quiet. The chaos needs to come from those who did not vote for Trump andeven those who did not vote.

I was going to add "plurality" but didn't want to confuse some non-criticaly thinking voters. There was no "landslide" even in the Electoral College. Yes he got more votes and yes he took all the swing states that are not filled with crossover voters who f'd around and found out voting is a practical matter, not an emotional one.

The chaos is already here but some of it is not helping i.e. torching Tesla dealerships. That helps no one.

Great reply Potter, thanks.

Lies upon lies! Anyone who believes anything that comes out of this regime as reliable is doing so at their own peril!
