Summary

Trump evicted former Coast Guard Commandant Linda Fagan from her military housing with just three hours’ notice, despite an earlier 60-day waiver.

Fagan, the first woman to lead a military branch, was dismissed on Trump’s second day in office over concerns about DEI policies and border security.

Homeland Security officials cited her termination as justification, though sources called it a “petty” move.

Fagan was forced to leave most belongings behind, spending the night with friends while awaiting relocation of her personal items.

    Why do you think any lawsuits for any of these things would actually get anywhere at this point?

        Right but you seem to be inferring that the totalitarianism sweeping the nation at the moment will just go away or something, and lawsuits on things like this will actually be a thing in, say, 10 years.

          yeah this is just the start. it’s gonna get progressively worse until inevitably the system blows up. that could take decades. i’m guessing it culminates in some sort of unwinnable war
