On election day, November 5, 2024, I wrote a post in which I said that our nation was at the beginning of a new era. (https://www.blogger.com/blog/post/edit/3321957526055752851/4388781177987208699?hl=en). I following that with my reflections over the next 9 days. I didn't continue specific NY posts, but I continued to follow and monitor the increasingly alarming events as the Trump Regime took office on January 20 with the signing of 73 executive orders in the first 30 days and additional ones since then.
On March 2, I felt compelled to again record my response to this dangerous regime:
Trump Regime, Day 42
In the 6 weeks since his inauguration, Trump has made a mockery and shambles of our democratic norms and institutions while his collaborators in the House and Senate remain silent and his MAGA cultists cheer him on. The indiscriminate firing and budget cuts by Musk and his minions at DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency - created by Trump) will wreak havoc with people's lives and local economies. The latest offense to Democracy occcurred last Friday when Trump and Vance bullied and insulted President Volodomir Zelensky in the Oval Office, with cameras running, because he did not sufficiently kowtow to them. It is going to get worse before it gets better.
I have renamed DOGE to DOGIE (pronounced dodgy) - Department of Government Inefficiency. Later I learned that others were doing the same.
Even if the courts rule that Trump's and Musk's action are illegal, who will inforce the order, he has dismanted much of the professional staff of the FBI and replaced with his stooges.
How long before his MAGA cultists turn on him?
