This episode is a rundown of headlines and a warning. The MAGA movement isn’t just extreme, it’s coordinated, calculated, and already reshaping the country in dangerous ways.

I break down how Trump’s team is staging mass deportation theater for campaign optics, using human lives as political props — even as Biden quietly outpaces him in deportation numbers. We look at Project 2025, page 555, and its blueprint for militarized immigration enforcement already being implemented on the ground.

We also talk about the silencing of dissent — from ABC firing veteran journalist Terry Moran for criticizing Trump, to the broader chilling effect rippling through the press. And we examine the assassination of Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, a political act of domestic terrorism inspired by MAGA extremism — and enabled by a Republican Party that refuses to confront the violence it fuels.

If that weren’t enough: Trump made over $600 million last year — off crypto, NFTs, Bible merch, and licensing deals — while building a movement rooted in fear, exclusion, and authoritarianism. This isn’t governance. It’s grift at the expense of democracy.

I close this episode with a personal tribute to Melissa Hortman — a leader who embodied decency, courage, and conviction. Her legacy is a reminder of the kind of public service we should demand — and the stakes of what we stand to lose.

This isn’t about left vs. right. It’s about democracy vs. dictatorship. And the time to speak up is now.
