White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt is starting to crack under the pressure of her job, and even when sharing "good news" with the country she is visibly irate to the point where she's almost shaking as she yells. This could be her conscience trying to break free and make her stop lying to the public, and she's using all of her inner strength to suppress the voice that's telling her that what she's doing is morally wrong. 

Donald Trump's latest order regarding H-1B visas immediately caused panic, chaos, and confusion among foreign workers and the businesses that employ them. Trump is now charging companies $100,000 to obtain the visas, making it incredibly expensive to bring in the level of expertise needed to run their companies. When the rule was announced, foreign workers were instructed to not leave the country out of fear they'd never be able to return, and one Emirates flight even delayed their departure to allow people to get off the plane when the order was given. 

Lawyers at the Department of Justice are being warned that they need to get malpractice insurance because they will likely need it due to their work for Trump. This is a terrifying warning that serves as an admission that the DOJ is engaging in activity that is definitely not ok. These lawyers now have a choice - Work for a man that is going to force them to do legally dubious things, or resign with dignity and find work elsewhere. 

Just hours after Donald Trump and his clown car of quacks announced that they "feel" like use of acetaminophen is tied to an increased risk of autism, Trump's own FDA released guidance to medical professionals that completely undermines every lie Trump told during that press conference. The FDA is apparently still trying to prevent the perversion of science and data that is rampant in this administration, but the people who put out the guidance are likely going to have to find new jobs in the very near future. 

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is all about image and not substance. This is why the portrayals of her in the media, especially on shows like South Park, have rattled her so much. According to new reports, the mockery and embarrassment recently became too much for her to take, and she allegedly started profanely screaming at her staff over the barrage of negative stories about her in the press. And it isn't just about mockery - she's also angry about people learning that her department is completely dysfunctional.
