"Billionaire #ElonMusk gave what appeared to be a #fascist #salute Monday while making a #speech at the post-inauguration #celebration for #President #DonaldTrump at the #CapitalOne Arena." #PBSNews wrote in a #post on #X.
@Susan_Larson_TN perhaps if Garland had done his job we wouldn't have a traitor as prez
@Susan_Larson_TN I’m not surprised. It took less than 24 hours and one executive order to bring me to tears.

Re: New Trump Executive Order re: transgender people - evaluation
Possibly even revoking documents that have been issued in the past, e.g. passports (see Sec. 3e).
Also concerns visas, work permits etc. meaning foreigners entering the US must comply as well.
Can of worms.
