If Democrats take back the House in 2026, it better not be to enable them to do deal making with Trump but to give them a better club to unceasingly hit him without mercy. 😡

It’s difficult to estimate how much damage and loss we’re going to experience in the next 3-1/2 years. Trump has managed to bring this country so low in just over six months. If people don’t stand up and push back…a general strike, mass civil disobedience etc. our quality of life is doomed.

Remember when Trump fired thousands of IRS workers for "performance"? Turns out they didn't even CONSIDER performance in their decision. These firings just make it harder for the IRS to go after tax cheats. Want to fire people for bad performance? Start with Trump’s cabinet.

During their meeting in Alaska, Putin brought up election integrity, and after the meeting Trump renewed his attacks on mail-in voting & voting machines. This shouldn't be news to anyone paying attention, but expect Russia's active measures to target trust in both voting mechanisms going into 2026.
