"There was no legitimate reason for the #FridayNightMassacre in the military. It was the slaughter of our integrity, our values, and our #security.

We’ve watched the #SupremeCourt cave to Trump. #Congress has folded, at least for now. The #press is still trying to appease Trump... We know that courage can be contagious. Now the question is, what will the #military do?"

Friday Night Massacre in the Military

Friday night, the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (who is black) and the Navy's top admiral (who is female) were fired, along with the most senior Judge Advocates General (JAGS) for the Army, Navy, and Air Force.

#FridaynightMassacre #theendofdemocracy #TrumpDictatorship #Thisisntfunnyanymore Tonight will live in infamy. It took 11 days for our deranged president to outdo both Nixon and Hitler. Firing hundreds if not thousands of FBI and Justice Dept personnel is the same as tearing up and spitting on the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, and Rule of Law, the legal backbone of our country. Trump must be stopped, this is a despicable man acting despicably.

Hey, Wikipedians, wondering if beyond-Nixonian #FridayNightMassacre is worthy of a new Wikipedia article; there's one for the 2020 trickle of Friday night IG massacres.

Inspectors general have a new bipartisan caucus in the Senate

The president-elect has a record of removing inspectors general.

@carnage4life there is more to this drama. #fridaynightmassacre is not an uncommon tactic used on those who threaten power structures.
