Important:
Now that #Trump's second term is approaching inexorably like the hands of an analog clock, it is time to study Trump's #TransitionPlan spelled out by the #FederalistSociety et all in detail.
To do so in a fun way, you can revisit the June 20th, 2024 episode of #LastWeekTonight:
"#JohnOliver discusses #DonaldTrumpβs plans for a second term, why it could be much worse...

The "#DeepState" beaurocrats that corrected some of the #OrangePeril's severest assaults on the American system will quickly be replaced by 100% loyal MAGAT|s, which were vetted by the #Project205 taskforce put in place by the #FederalistSociety.

The next president will also alter the courtsβ #racial, #ideological & #professional makeup. Under #Trump, 76% of judicial nominees were #men, & 84% were #whiteβ¦.
