Footage from last year is now resurfacing of Trump promising to “end inflation” starting on “day one.”

— Egg prices are up.
— Gas prices are up.
— He is promising tariffs that will raise prices even more.

If you're more upset with Biden being forced to consider the extraordinary step of peremptorily pardoning his own officials then you are about Trump appointing someone who’s promised to use the federal govt to exact personal retribution for Trump, then you need to think a little more critically.

"The real-life American revolutionaries were avowed enemies of monarchy, while today’s wannabe revolutionaries have as their leader and hero Donald Trump, the most arrogant, monarchical president in U.S. history."
The MAGA Crowd May Venerate 1776 But They Idolize a Would-Be Monarch
The Patriots of the American Revolution believed no man was above the law. Donald Trump’s followers are sure he is.

Mikhail Zygar explains why Trump's victory is being celebrated in Moscow. Not just because of a change in Ukraine policy, but because "to many in the Kremlin, a Trump presidency might bring about the collapse of the American state"

"To yield now to these appointments would be a normalization not just of Trump as a wannabe authoritarian but as an actual, governing authoritarian."

So the GOP is just currently covering up potential sex crimes against children by one of their members and instead of releasing the report, they are trying to make that person the Attorney General of the United States? Do we have that right?

Mike Johnson reminds me of the guy in the movie “Red Dawn” that gives away the hiding position of the wolverines to the local Russian commander.

Time to thwart Trump’s fantasy of an authoritarian regime, the stock market is starting to reflect what a social and economic disaster that would be. The word is getting out and people are taking notice.
