Mexican-looking, man with a cap, kneeling in a zucchini field, 2 baby marrows in his hand, looking into the distance.
"So, on January 20, we leave. Then, we drink tequila in #Mexico for two weeks. Then we watch the #MAGA|S
try to do our jobs, and we laugh our asses off.
Then we come back and ask for three times our old wage, since we do the work of six MAGAS.
Sounds like a plan!"

White House: Trump Team Still Hasn’t Signed Transition Docs
"Crucially, the FBI also remains unable to conduct any background checks on the president-elect’s prospective cabinet, raising alarm over the possibility that senators may be rushed into voting on his nominations without the appropriate due diligence having been carried out. "

White House: Trump Team Still Hasn’t Signed Transition Docs
Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Jeff Zients, Biden’s chief of staff, has “consistently reiterated” a desire to work on ensuring a “smooth” transition of power.Will Neal (The Daily Beast)
"These are people who make more than $35,000 but less than $58,000 per year, but don’t currently qualify for #overtime; to oversimplify, bosses have reclassified many of these #workers as managers, exempting them from federal overtime protections. The #Biden rule would make them eligible...
Guess who managed to block this rule that would have provided those people with relief? #MAGA #Republicans allied with #business interests, that’s who."

Break it.
Crack its bones.
Tear the skin off, leave the innards.
Maim and disfigure and destroy the thing until onlookers, sickened by the sight of it, beg to see it banished, removed forever.
This is how fascists destroy democracy.

Authoritarianism Expert Delivers Chilling Assessment On Trump Cabinet Picks
It's not “just that these people are not qualified enough" or even "totally unqualified," warned Timothy Snyder, who said their selection aims to do one thing.Lee Moran (HuffPost)
Truth Social investors hoped to get ‘very rich’ after Trump’s win. Not quite. John Viaud, a retiree in South Carolina, knew he was taking a big risk when he poured his pension money into the stock of his political icon’s social media company. But Viaud was hopeful a #Trump win would rocket the stock into the stratosphere, posting, “Come November all of us are going to be very rich!” In the days since the election the stock has fallen.
Jokes on you #Maga 😜🤣
☝️THIS 🧵☝️ is exactly why I do not trust #BlueSky . This recent push of so many accounts joining at once and the INorganic feel of the movement, combined with the #MAGA money funding the platform and the #Crypto scammer who owns it...
It all just adds up to trouble down the road-- for all of us, on or off of BS
BlueSky's MAGA owners are making it seem like a "safe space" for Liberals now, but I am dead certain the plan is to use it to spread political disunity and disinformation down the road.
I am especially worried abt disunity beginning there & working its way across #SocialMedia . Republicans and MAGA only win when we do not unify and vote together. It's how they won in 2016, how they won this year, & how they plan to win in the future.
Trump did not make huge gains between 2020 & 2024. The problem was a lack of unity behind Harris.
If they can sow enough discontent on the Liberal side, then MAGA can walk in the door unchallenged.

...sogar die 3. Säule (#Repräsentantenhaus) noch dazukommen könnte, ist grundsätzlich alles möglich.
Ich hatte seit mehreren Jahren ab und an mal darauf hingewiesen, dass #Polen unter #PiS ein "Testmarkt" für die international stark vernetzte Rechte ist. (#Orban ist bei #MAGA Conventions ja ein "Superstar".)

*Politisierung und Intrumentalisierung des #US-Justizministerizums durch #Trump und die #MAGA-Bewegung*
Ich bin kein Verfassungsrechtler, aber der Artikel deckt sich mit der seit der ersten Veröffentlichung des #MAGA-Amtsübernahmeplans #Project2025 durch politisch informierte Kreise gehende Nervosität. Sie geht bei Karrierebeamten zwischenzeitlich Richtung Panik. Wenn man 2 von 3 Säulen der Regierung fest im Griff hat und...
I just posted this valuable statement by Noah Berlatsky on Facebook, and Facebook immediately took down the posting:
"It may not be safe to remain friends with MAGA. Trump voters have told you they will hurt you. It’s reasonable to believe them. …
I’m not saying everyone in every case has to cut their MAGA family out of their life. Different people are in different circumstances; you can’t make blanket rules."
Ben Wittes:
"In contemplating the dangers of the second #Trump term, the damage he can do with perfect legality actually looms more ominously than his ultimately-inevitable criminality... the simple truth is that if we are going to protect #democracy, the actions of the state matter more than the criminal actions of the man."
