Steve Bannon is the most influential person in the MAGA movement — what he says goes.
And he just promised ICE would be at the polls this November.

The message couldn’t be clearer: Republicans are planning to steal the midterms. It’s time to stop living in denial, Marc Elias writes.

One month into 2026 and Republicans are losing their minds
If Democrats win the majority, Trump’s authoritarian plan will be foiled — and he knows that.

Science discarded,
The art of critical thinking flayed,
Fools weave their insubstantial dreams,
Brittle, and as smooth as new ICE,
Ever eager to please the Orange waste on the throne,
Demanding only the dullness of unremarkable subservience.

With all the vile disgusting things trump is doing and saying, why are republicans still silent.

Trump needs to be removed ASAP. Republicans are putting party before country while knowing the cost is the country itself.
