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.
Mandate my ass.

A lot of folks are giving up in advance. Capitulating before a single skirmish.

Well, not this old warrior. I’ve seen much worse from the U.S. government in my day. I’m concerned for our country, but not a bit scared of these miscreants. I’m ready to do my part.

Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone who is ready to break open a huge pack of "I FUCKING TOLD YOU SO" to the selfish assholes who insisted on electing an authoritarian convicted felon with dementia because eggs weren't cheap enough.

The insanity has already begun. 🍿

BREAKING: Trump is expected to nominate RFK Jr. as Secretary of HHS.
The Senate should not confirm RFK Jr.
Pass it on.

Good news: Twitter is collapsing.

And this chart doesn't even show the last two weeks—which have seen the largest exodus in site history.
