It seems almost unavoidable at this point that we are headed for a deep, deep recession. Just based on 200K+ federal firings & pullback of contracts, the March employment report (to be released April 4) seems certain to show bigger job losses than any month ever outside of a few in 2008-9 and 2020.

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

Sad news. Jack Smith is a man of integrity. I just hope the reports are released, so his hard work leads to the truth coming to light.
POLITICO reports: “Special counsel Jack Smith has completed his work on two criminal investigations of President-elect Donald Trump and resigned Friday from the Justice Department.”
Jack Smith resigns from DOJ
The special counsel's departure was disclosed in a court filing submitted Saturday afternoon to U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon.

Are people forgetting that in November 2023, a Colorado District Court ruled that Donald Trump "engaged in insurrection" against the United States, and under the 14th amendment of our Constitution is ineligible to hold office?

I, like many of you, have been contemplating our predicament since election night.
We are in a losing war for our democracy and I'm not sure we collectively know who our true adversary is.
It's not the voting blocks...white women, Latinos, Gen X. It's not MAGA. It's not even Trump.

For the Magaidiots in the back, here are some facts:
- Donald Trump did not win this election in a “landslide”. He does not have a “mandate”. He won by one of the smallest margins in our history.

PLEASE REMEMBER:
trump's win percentage is shaping up to be the third SMALLEST in history.
He does NOT have a mandate, no matter what he says.
That means we push back against every single batshit crazy policy he tries to pass.
EVERYTHING.
