Will MAGA realize Trump is-more interested in glorifying himself than looking after their welfare?

Trump devastates farmers with tariffs then offered a handout to keep MAGA afloat? Not my kind of POTUS.

I think it's funny how much time and effort we spend trying to create warnings for future civilizations about radioactive waste dumps, as if any of us actually heeded the warnings on ancient tombs. Humans do not heed warnings unless deeply tied to religious dogma. And even then!

It’s vital that Jack Smith’s evidence in the 2021 attempted coup be presented publicly.

In the likely event that Trump tries to use the presidency to overturn the results of the 2026 midterms and keep his GOP puppets in power, the courts and public need to know the bigger picture.

We have a 25th Amendment for these moments. If only we had a Congress.
1. A blockade is an act of war

2. The idea that Venezuela has stolen land from the United States is so laughably stupid on its face that even some of his base is like 🤨

3. It’s always about oil.

This is the most important political, legal and democracy story right now. Yet, it has garnered relatively little coverage from legacy media outlets. The outcome in these cases may decide whether we have free and fair elections in 2026. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/as-...

On expiring ACA subsidies:

Donald Trump, Senate Majority Leader John Thune and House Speaker Mike Johnson are about to get a lesson on what “consent of the-governed” means.

Do SCOTUS’s Roberts, Alito, Kavanaugh, et al realize how purely evil Trump is, or do they just not care?

There hasn’t been enough appreciation for how thoroughly BENNIE THOMPSON humiliated FBI official GLASHEEN after he tried to sell the lie that ANTIFA is the top domestic terror threat.

The claim collapsed because it’s a cover.

There are winners in Trump’s policies and they’re not Americans.

Tired of losing yet?
Tyson is shutting down its Lexington, Nebraska plant in January 2026. That’s 3,200 workers gone in one shot, the largest plant shutdown in company history.

Blame Trump’s tariff chaos and the lowest cattle inventories in decades. Tariffs jack up costs. Supply shrinks. Plants close. Towns hollow out.

Trump’s administration is doomed after less than a year. Why?

Because no matter how under water he is in the polls, or how incompetent his policies, he’ll refuse advice and fly his presidency into the ground.

If you haven’t figured it out yet, Trump’s in it for the money … and the cruelty.

How long before the neofascists in the GOP move to sideline Trump to prevent his increasing instability and irrationality from endangering their gains so far?

SCOTUS is pushing the unitary presidency at the very moment a psychopath in the White House is Hoovering up and abusing executive power.
The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed.

Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it.

When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

TRUMP: THE DRUG TRAFFICKER’S FRIEND

Why is he blowing up boats with low-level drug runners,
and letting the kingpins go free?

Despite his anti-drug rhetoric, Donald Trump has issued more pardons to drug dealers than any president in history.

Yo, Samuel Alito:

Is this what you signed up for?

To be on the SCOTUS that hands over irrevocable power to a corrupt lunatic and his fascist henchmen?

Is this the person who embodies your idea of a unitary executive?

Things Dinald Trump will never achieve:

Come to think of it, Pete Hegseth just admitted openly that they're committing extrajudicial murders in international waters partly in order to please MAGA influencers that want retribution for political attacks on Pete Hegseth:
Sadism is the lifeblood of MAGA politics. Hard to overstate how disgusting and embarrassing for our country it is for the US Secretary of Defense to be doing this:
