Especially because Miller knows the specific ways to manipulate Trump - it's how he's embedded himself so deeply already, effectively controlling domestic law enforcement, immigration and DOJ policy, despite that he still had layers of people separating him. Now by controlling access, he can decide exactly what Trump hears and therefore thinks.

I think we got lucky in 2026 with ICE not at polls, but I think this is the earliest signal to not take a victory lap yet, and that they will try a full coup in or by 2028. It will be VERY hard with them losing the House and Senate, but I still think Miller will try.

I've been uncharacteristically optimistic all week, I haven't used any drugs since before election day but I am riding high on a sudden newfound optimism for the future of America, im really excited to see how 2028 plays out, I feel like MAGA is in for a quick demise, and yet there is still a cynical part of me waiting for it all to come crashing down any day now, I worry I'm in for a dangerous crash at the end of this high

Like the god-damned villain in a horror movie that just won't die

We need some prosecutions to make it harder for the MAGA nazis to return

  1. Post only links to articles. Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing other users of being bots or paid actors.
  3. No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
  4. No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have comments or posts removed, weaponize reports, or violate the code of conduct, will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.

That's all the rules!
