It was yet another week filled with wild and disturbing news from the regime. But seeing the East Wing of the White House, one of the most historically significant buildings in America, fall victim to Trump’s latest egomaniacal desires was particularly hard to watch.
It encapsulated everything that Trump and his acolytes are doing to our country. Their outright disregard for our laws, for our history, for the will of the people, and their embrace of self-serving pro-billionaire legislation, all while taking a wrecking ball to democracy, our rights, and our freedoms.
Harry Dunn, Joel Rubin, and Sam Schwartz from The Siren also discuss prominent Trump ally Steve Bannon’s extremely disturbing interview in which he said, “[Trump’s] going to get a third term ... so Trump is going to be president in 2028. And people just ought to get accommodated with that,” he said in an interview with The Economist.
“At the appropriate time we’ll lay out what the plan is. But there’s a plan. We had longer odds in ‘16 and longer odds in ‘24 than we’ve got in ‘28,” Bannon added.
And of course, this is on top of key Trump officials declaring that Trump will use the National Guard to stop the midterm elections (New York Times), a pro-Trump operative buying Dominion Voting Systems and rebranding it “Liberty Vote,” and the GOP’s attempts to gerrymander and overturn the Voting Rights Act.
The panel also discusses pardoned January 6th insurrectionist Christopher Moynihan’s felony charge after he made a terroristic threat against Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries, as well as the need to support the Democrats running in the upcoming November 2025 elections.
