Jeffrey Epstein could have played a role in Trump's new government cabinet if Trump hadn't killed him.

Why does America support Ukraine? In 1994, Ukraine signed the Budapest Memorandum, giving up the world’s 3rd largest nuclear arsenal. In exchange, the U.S., U.K., and Russia guaranteed its sovereignty. The logic was simple: disarmament in exchange for security.

We tried to warn. And yet the press “fact checked” anyone who dared to say Trump was going to implement Project 2025—because he said he wouldn’t. Insane.

Media Matters post about Project 2025 architect Russ Vought returning to lead the Office of Management and Budget. Vought is a leading proponent of using Schedule F to fire thousands of federal workers and replace them with MAGA loyalists.

Trump’s proposed 60% tariff on Chinese goods and 20% on all other imports would hurt the economy before any manufacturing gains could be realized. Let me break down how this would affect us immediately. 🧵👇

Here’s what DA Bragg (DANY) did yesterday in People v Trump, which is actually complicated. Requires understanding Trump’s position—which was also more fully revealed yesterday—& the weird & close-to-hopeless posture of case. bit.ly/4ftTgF8 ... 1/12

Now that Nazis and Proud Boys have invaded Springfield, Ohio and Trump won the election (and won the city by 150 votes) their Haitian community is already fleeing. I'm sure the factories will just hire Nazis and Proud Boys.

Trump had a collection of Hitler speeches next to his bed. We can joke that it may be the only book he has ever read cover to cover, but it means he *studied* Hitler’s tools for commanding his audience and bringing them over to his side, tactics he has used successfully over and over again.

Looks like Nate Silvers’s prediction is getting closer as Trump is at 50% now down from 50.2% and about to drop below. This means that more than 50% voted against Trump. It wasn’t a mandate.

🧵Republicans weaponize issues like inflation, border security, and even conspiracy theories to attack Democrats, not to solve problems. They exploit crises or fabricate them to gain power while neglecting solutions that help the American people. Let me show you.

What do Hitler and Trump have in common? Both used similar communication tactics to gain power and influence, though their contexts and outcomes differ. Let’s break it down. 🧵

Just imagine going back in time two weeks and credibly telling people who Trump was going to nominate if he won. You might shave 10,000 votes off his national total!

I am beyond disgusted with the state of the US right now. I cannot believe I have to raise a young family in this hell scape. When everything gets MORE expensive, when we get into actual wars, when women have no rights...I am going to be the worst person to EVERYONE who voted for Trump. Fuck you.
