MAGA (2026): “Sure, we can’t afford to feed our families anymore, but at least we got rid of a those foreigners that were destroying our economy!”

We knew what a Trump win would mean: unqualified appointees, disregard for democratic guardrails, and a completely chaotic transition. That's exactly what we got. Watch @TheRickWilson @MayaOnstage on the latest episode of The Breakdown here: www.youtube.com/live/5Q258ia...

Trump says he wants to deport even the children of undocumented immigrants (who are here legally).

Everyone should know about what's happening in North Carolina. Republicans are using Trump's playbook to try to overturn an election. I wrote about it last week:

Friends, It's no mystery that soon things will be changing here in America. The incoming Administration is going to be bringing a vast number of alterations to this nation, affecting people's well-being, human rights, healthcare options and cost, ability to buy a home, make a living, and on and on.

"BREAKING: Donald Trump says he'd 'absolutely' consider taking the U.S. out of NATO. This reckless move would destabilize global security and empower authoritarian regimes.

Trump just upped the ante for people who didn't want him to win but have decided they can sit on the sidelines & ignore what's going on because it won't affect their lives. That's naive-inevitably it will & here's a concrete example in the making.

Oh listen, we aren’t afraid. My response to Trumps threat: adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/bring-it-o...

The combined net worth of America's twelve wealthiest people just passed $2 TRILLION. 12 people. $2 trillion. The bottom half of America collectively holds $3.5 trillion. Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.

Obviously people like Cheney, Kinzinger, Thompson, Schiff, and the witnesses committed no crimes and should be offered safe harbor by preemptive pardons that President Biden has full power to give and that they may accept without admitting they committed any offense when they in fact committed none.

The premise of Trump’s pardon pledge is striking for how divorced it is from what’s actually happening with J6 defendants. Very few are incarcerated in DC jail — and the ones in jail for “years” are almost all convicted of serious felonies (which Trump says he may not pardon).

Donald Trump is trying to bring back the ANTIFA conspiracy theory about J6. "Those people have suffered long and hard. And there may be some exceptions to it. I have to look. But, you know, if somebody was radical, crazy. There might be some people from Antifa there." 🤦‍♀️
