MAGA rhetoric is not based in politics, reason or American values. It is hate verbalized, aiming to distract us from truth and drag us into chaos. @therickwilson.bsky.social answers your questions about MAGA, the future, and much more on the latest episode of the LP Podcast: youtu.be/ot-qr0En66Y?...

Our institutions don’t defend themselves, we do. Don't be distracted by Trump's chaotic appointee picks, focus because there's a long fight ahead.
