Trump wants full control over both the federal and state governments and the executive, judicial, and legislative branches without any legal oversight or restrictions.
In other words, he wants to be king of the United States.

The dangerous result of anti-vaccine leadership: the US will lose its measles elimination status because of unchecked outbreaks. Trump's HHS pick Kennedy helped fuel this crisis by undermining public health.

NEW: The Trump administration's new National Security Strategy is worse than you may have heard. It turns Trump's racism, corruption, and appeasement into official US policy. For my OUR LAND newsletter, I gave it a read so you don't have to.

This entire article is positive about Trump Gold Cards. It contains positive quotes about it from Trump, Lutnick and a CEO. It contains no quotes from the many critics of the program. This is sandwiched between 6 posts about Erika Kirk. CBS is lost.

Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell just voted against extending health insurance tax credits, choosing to let health care premiums skyrocket for thousands of Kentuckians.

They are hellbent on lining billionaires’ pockets over making health care affordable for Kentuckians.

🎉 BREAKING: WE DID IT! 🎉

After days of intense pressure from D.C., the Indiana Senate REJECTED the mid-decade gerrymandered map!

This victory belongs to every Indivisible member, every activist, and every Hoosier who called, emailed, and showed up.

In case you missed it, Governor @andybeshearky.bsky.social is now Chair of the Democratic Governors Association. He's proven that Democrats can win in red states by focusing on what matters to families. Congratulations, Governor. Kentucky is behind you.

The Trump regime is pushing for Austria, Hungary, Poland, and Italy to leave European Union, this is the latest ploy by MAGA to weaken support for Ukraine and help Russia. Trump's inner circle is hoping to plunder Ukraine's territories and dissolve the EU for financial gain.

Wild that even in Indiana the GOP finally found a line they couldn’t cross. If your gerrymander is so extreme that a Republican Senate says ‘absolutely not,’ you know you cooked it. Democracy wins today.

All the threats from Trump and his henchmen to Republican state senators in Indiana failed. Mid-decade gerrymandering rejected. This is no small thing. Maybe some other Republicans will finally start to stand up to the Mob Boss.

If I were an Indiana congressperson this would really piss me off. I'd be more determined than ever to stand up against something I knew was wrong. The mob boss approach works best on people you have kompromat on, not people just trying to do their jobs.
Republicans announce the entire state of Indiana will be defunded if they do not obey Trump by gerrymandering their state.

This supposedly high-level convo gets stupid *immediately*.

After Emily explains that presidents ALREADY have the power to fire commissioners FOR CAUSE, David says Humphrey's Executor must be overruled so they can fire for corruption or incompetence—i.e. FOR CAUSE. And Emily says, good point!

A Democratic lawmaker just laid down a brutal ultimatum to DHS Secretary Kristi Noem: resign, get fired by Trump, or face impeachment for lying with impunity and blatantly ignoring the rule of law. This is a direct confrontation over unchecked authoritarian behavior.

Three more years of Trump could reshape America into an authoritarian state with mass deportations, crippled public services, and militarized cities. The midterms and Supreme Court will decide if we face this grim future or can still fight back.
What Will America Look Like After 3 More Years of Trump?
Trump has drastic changes in mind, but he could still be constrained by the midterms, the Supreme Court, and other outside factors.
