I'd add that Vance has repeatedly insisted that the GOP welcome Hitler-lovers like Nick Fuentes, who continually bashes Vance and his wife, into the party.

This has been reported almost exclusively as him expressing "unity" and trying to avoid infighting.

Again, the man who’s next in line for the presidency after this walking corpse has said he’s deeply influenced by this outright Nazi, so maybe we could get a little more attention on that?
Curtis Yarvin, JD Vance’s friend & ideological influence, ended 2025 by claiming “only Hitler spoke the truth” about “too many subjects” & “Hitler was a genius.”

Extremism isn’t fringe on the right. Once marginal online extremists like Yarvin are influential at the highest levels of government.

Stephen Miller's argument that the U.S. shouldn't take immigrants from "failed societies" overlooks the fact that the failure of other societies is what drives people to seek a better life here. It's what Miller's own ancestors did.

This snippet perfectly illustrates why we need to completely reform the Supreme Court

Because it was a SCOTUS packed with MAGA judges-chosen by Trump himself-that shamefully deprived America of its rightful justice by granting him immunity and destroying any chance Jack Smith had to prosecute him
Jack Smith: I believe we had proof beyond a reasonable doubt in both cases.

It’s worth saying out loud that this is Nazi propaganda. They’re not winking and nodding. It’s pure unadulterated lebensraum.
DHS now says it's aiming for 100 million deportations. In an amazing coincidence, there are 104 million Black and Hispanic people living in the U.S. right now.

It’s obscene that this has continued so long without a full-on press meltdown. It’s really not any different than if they were posting pictures of Hitler and captioning them “Join ICE. Finish the job”

Smith: He was getting calls from people he trusts, people he relies on—and he still refused to come to the aid of the people at the Capitol. That’s very important evidence for criminal intent in our case.

It is kind of wild that no big media outlet has busted open the story of who is making DHS' posts on X. Whoever that may be is certainly plugged into hardcore white supremacist internet propaganda with a harder edge. "Groyper" would be underselling it. This is Daily Stormer-tier sludge.

The notion that Donald Trump can direct the DOJ to investigate Jack Smith regardless of whether Smith committed any crime should make everyone in America ill
“Would you be surprised if President Trump directs the DOJ to indict you?”

Jack Smith: “No.”

Jack Smith: “Our case was built on, frankly, Republicans who put their allegiance to the country before the party.”

Trump also had a “pattern” of rejecting information that didn’t fit his false narrative.

Institutional knowledge and the collective memory of how things are supposed to work deteriorate FAST.

One year of this and we'll spend the entire next administration repairing the damage. After three to five years, restoring the Republic would take decades. Ten years and you start from scratch.
2025 was a year where many of our worst fears came to pass.

We watched a madman get back into the White House, who let billionaires hijack our federal government, slash our benefits to fund their government handouts & tax cuts, while stealing our data to feed their Orwellian surveillance systems

NEW: Jack Smith seemed in total command of the details of his probes and used his deposition to forcefully rebut claims of weaponization and reiterate his belief that Trump was guilty of historic crimes.

Even kings who thought they were deities or chosen by deities didn’t behave like this.
Democracies cannot function like this. The President is a public servant of the people, not a diety who doles out government services based on perceived personal slights.
In his veto letter, President Trump blamed the Miccosukee Tribe for having “actively sought to obstruct reasonable immigration policies that the American people decisively voted for when I was elected.”

On Jack Smith deposition, now released:

100% obvious why GOP refused to allow this as open testimony, aired live. It's damning.

Testimony from John Dean or Alex ("wiretaps") Butterfield in Watergate days would have 1/10th the impact if just in print.

What Smith says is far more incriminating.
