Trump wrongly indicted me. I’ll rightly impeach him.
Impeachment isn’t just an option, it’s a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent — but is it working?

In other words, you can be sure:
IF 900-page Project 2025 mentions a law, govt agency or protective measure,
THEN the Christian White Nationalist overhaul either fully eliminates that law/agency/measure or redefines it to the point of being unrecognizable.
This is what White America chose for us.

As foremost Project 2025 expert, I can confidently confirm: the Christian White Nationalist overhaul permanently dissolves and rewrites all law and govt mentioned.
The recent recategorization of “mandated reporters” of child abuse from what’s left of the Department of Education, is a recent example.

Over a quarter of Trump's proposed $1T military budget would go to just four companies who have spent $103B in taxpayer dollars on stock buybacks and dividends over the last decade.
He wants to use your money to make the military-industrial complex even richer.

Getting big money out of politics.
Strengthening unions and fighting for higher wages.
Medicare for all, paid family leave, universal childcare...
This is the progressive populist agenda we need in America.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.
The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.
Where is the MAHA outcry?

Sadly, it’s easier to find examples of media organizations capitulating to Trump than standing up to him. The press should not make itself complicit in its own denigration at the hands of Trump.

2) Use their monopoly power to gouge consumers.
3) Take a portion of their profits to make political donations.
