Montage of clips of Trump “guaranteeing” that he will end the war in Ukraine within 24 hours of taking office, that “it wouldn’t even be tough” for him to do, and that “everyone will be happy” with the end result.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it.

The past several days have proven without a shadow of a doubt that Project 2025 is real and underway.

And those who warned America about it were right.

Just a reminder that in December I warned that Donald Trump would pardon the Jan. 6 defendants and that some of them would form the core of a new pro-Trump militia movement.

My stomach is churning right now as I’m reviewing images for my floor speech this afternoon on the violent felons Trump pardoned.

Here’s David Dempsey beating officers with a flagpole. He got a full pardon and is being let out jail.

We can’t let this feel normal.

A reminder Monday that there will be an avalanche of executive orders.

Mass deportations will start.

Meanwhile, the House and Senate will try to ram through a bunch of bad bills.

Do not get lost in a sea of despair.

That is what they want.

Prepare yourselves now.

In a mostly bleak election for American women and their rights, New Mexico was an unexpected bright spot.

Even as Harris lost her bid for the White House, NM voters elected 60 women to fill the legislature’s 112 seats, giving New Mexico the largest female legislative majority in US history.

Again, Trump is a symptom of a much larger disease. The wealth class’s power grab has left Americans terrified and retreating further and further into a fantasy world that’s going to get so many people hurt. And it’s not just MAGA now. It’s media. Liberals. It’s growing and spreading.
