New from me: Project 2025 is the most dangerous agenda in American politics. It poses unprecedented risks to democracy itself if implemented, and make no mistake about it: this is Donald Trump’s plan. youtu.be/aQ77UOZwb0c?si…

Oh good. The Project 2025 guy

Stefanik at the UN will probably be a shitshow, but maybe Dems will be able to pick up her House seat. 🤷‍♂️

Republicans are currently saying the election they just won was stolen, but only for Senate seats they lost. There’s no reasoning with this level of dumbfuckery.

Marco Rubio, Trump’s Secretary of State pick, explicitly said yesterday that he would NOT call for a ceasefire in Gaza. Great job to all the protest voters who snubbed Harris over Israel - you guys are really playing 6D chess here.

One thing I think people need to be aware of is the absolute torrent of bullshit we are about to see. Pay attention to what else is happening when the big distracting things - deportations, etc. - start. They’re going to try to flood the zone and ram it all through at once.

@ironhorsetucson I don’t think we’re too screwed. It’s going to be a complete shitshow, but I also think once the market starts reacting negatively to these new policies, Republican outrage will force a change. They aren’t going to let Trump crash their precious stock market.

Angry Staffer Since he's not POTUS yet, does Trump have the ability to block FBI background checks on his nominees?

Matt Tilmann Dems need to meet people where they’re at - and where they actually want to get their news. They need to start leaning on their influencer network NOW. The right-wing podcast apparatus is almost certainly what helped get Trump elected. Dems need a (non-Russian funded)

Stealthgirl 🌻 We’re already seeing leaks - I would expect the whole thing to come out, yes.

DrRamblings Recounts outside the threshold are expensive. I don’t know what will happen, but I think it’s too early to definitively say we won’t be getting a recount in at least one state.

Three-eyed Raven I’m expecting an even higher level of turnover than Trump’s first presidency. They have all these big plans, but they don’t have the means to do half of the shit they’re talking about. He also wants some of them to fail so he can appoint his “acting” folks like the first time.

HomoConNYC I will not issue an apology because I understand science. We were in the middle of the worst pandemic in a century, and whether or not they prevented infection, the vaccines objectively saved millions of lives. The military gets 1000 vaccines - stop politicizing this one.

Stealthgirl 🌻 I wouldn’t think so, but apparently they’re letting him get away with it so who fucking knows? This is how stuff works in authoritarian shithole governments - it’s insane that Republicans are normalizing this.

Travis McMaster I think so. Trump is going to try to force the recess appointment issue, but Johnson will have to play ball and completely neuter himself in order for that to happen. I know that’s not too big of a stretch, but I think they’ll at least try hearings first.

@jamespagr If he does half of what he’s talking about doing, they’ll figure it out pretty quickly. His base will be disproportionately impacted by his policies. They’ll probably find a way to blame Democrats for it, even though they have complete control right now, but 🤷🏼‍♂️

Heidi Majerik 🍊🧡💙💛🏀 Folks are more concerned about losing their jobs and the massive employment crisis he’s going to cause if he actually cuts large numbers of federal jobs. Putting that many people out of work will tank the economy.

👑Gorillianaire👑 Is Mike Ray an inbred jackass? Oh, I thought we were asking stuff we already knew the answer to!

Dan734🌻 Starting next week, yes. I’ll still be posting here as well, but I will be moving the AMAs over there for a test run.

KempoMaster45 Best: it goes as badly as we expect it will. Blue wave in 2026 and then again in 2028. Worst: it goes as badly as we expect it will. War with Iran. War with China. Much smaller blue wave in 2026 because of nuclear winter.
