Donald Trump loves to talk. But last night he avoided talking about his own real actions.
He avoided talking about his Medicaid cuts.
He avoided talking about Musk firing thousands of veterans.
He avoided talking about his tax cuts for billionaires.
We will make sure Americans know the truth.

In today’s hellscape news, the Trump administration is planning to cut 80,000 jobs from the Department of Veterans Affairs.
The VA is already short-staffed and wait times are abhorrent.
Veterans will die because of this move.

As a journalist who covers extremism at the local level, I think it’s a mistake to view Trump’s Napoleonic statement as solely about presidential power. Consider if it’s interpreted as a wink and a nod for any extremist to act outside the law to “save” the country as they see fit
