Trump needs a reset. i.e. a very short list: First the quest for Lithium in Ukraine is indefensible given a HUGE US Lithium find, and Musk Firings
From Government Executive we go to the termination of probationary period employees
quote
An independent federal oversight agency has deemed at least some of President Trump’s mass firings of probationary period employees unlawful, creating a pathway for those employees to regain their jobs.?
The Office of Special Counsel, the agency responsible for investigating illegal actions taken against federal employees, issued its decision for six employees, each at different agencies. While the decision was technically limited in scope, it could have immediate impact on all terminated staff at those six agencies and could set a wide-ranging precedent across government. It has not been made public and was provided to Government Executive by a source within the government. OSC, which did not provide the document to Government Executive, verified its authenticity.?

Guaranteed to go to the Supreme Court. i.e. unless one believes in the theory of a unitary executive, whose decisions are MORE important than Congress, this mass firing, violates among other things the 14 Amendment of the Constitution which among other things states
quote
No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
end of quote
And that is the first MAJOR reset
Another one i.e. recently we have this finding, i.e. see this
quote
The?McDermitt Caldera, an ancient supervolcano straddling the?Nevada-Oregon border, may hold the world’s largest?lithium?deposit ever discovered. With estimates ranging between?20 and 40 million metric tons, this find could be a game-changer for renewable energy, electric vehicles (EVs), and global supply chains. However, extracting this treasure buried in volcanic sediments comes with environmental, political, and ethical challenges.
A Hidden Lithium Giant Beneath an Ancient Volcano
Stretching?45 kilometers (28 miles) long?and?35 kilometers (22 miles) wide, the?McDermitt Caldera?was formed?16.4 million years ago?after a colossal volcanic eruption. Over time, lithium-rich minerals settled into clay deposits, eventually transforming into?illite, a lithium-bearing mineral that is considered easier to extract than traditional sources like brine pools in South America.
This potential?lithium jackpot?could surpass the reserves of?Bolivia’s Salar de Uyuni, previously believed to be the largest in the world with 23 million metric tons. If confirmed, the U.S. would instantly become a major player in the lithium market, potentially disrupting?China’s dominance?in battery production.
end of quote
This is a 432 billion Euro deposit of LITHIUM. i.e. well surpassing what Zelenisky and Trump have been arguing over as to Ukrainian Lithium deposits by at least a factor of FIVE. i.e. much bigger
i.e. we have a game changer, right in America. Aside from the neo colonialism issue of Note as to scab picking Ukraine, this MAMMOTH find should be the MAIN focus of US rare Earth deposits.
We really need to stop picking on Ukraine, especially with this mega giant Lithium jackpot
And there you have it, i.e. stop this trashing of the 14th amendment, and lay off Ukraine.
How hard is that ? Simple if you follow the MONEY and THINK
