Trump is a convicted felon, on 34 counts.
Trump is now supposed to be the new Commander in Chief of the military.
However, felons with multiple convictions cannot be in the military -- and they are ineligible for a waiver.
So how can Trump legally be the Commander in Chief?

A reminder that when the cynical and now MAGA-friendly Mark Zuckerberg makes claims about alleged Biden administration pressure on FB over Covid misinformation, and screams 'Censorship!', he's also the guy who admitted his *uncensored* company played a big role in inciting a *literal genocide*:
Facebook Admits It Was Used to Incite Violence in Myanmar (Published 2018)
The company, citing a human rights report it commissioned, said it was moving to prevent further abuses of its platform in Myanmar. Critics said they were unconvinced.

Flashback to 2020:
CA official: "If we ignore the science and put our head in the sand... we're not going to succeed together protecting Californians."
Trump: "It'll start getting cooler. You just watch."
"I wish science agreed with you."
Trump: "I don’t think science knows, actually."

An absolute no brainer for DNC chair is @benwikler.bsky.social . Thanks to what Ben built at WisDems, when the country swung ~6 points to the right this cycle, Wisconsin only swung 1.5 points to the right, while actually *adding* seats in the state legislature and holding onto Tammy Baldwin's seat.

What Does It Mean That Donald Trump Is a Fascist?
Trump takes the tools of dictators and adapts them for the Internet. We should expect him to try to cling to power until death, and create a cult of January 6th martyrs.
