A longtime
Republican who voted for
Donald Trump in 2020 won't be doing so again in 2024, in part because he is "trying to be king" of the United States. Eileen, a former Trump voter from Mississippi, recorded a video for Republican Voters against Trump. The group recently announced an ad campaign to highlight the voices of former Trump voters, including Darin, who cited Jan. 6 as the reason he left the former president's team.

"Trump tends to be a bully, somewhat of a dictator, trying to be king of the
United States and that really scares me a whole lot.” She also said she wants what's best for "everybody" in the country. "And I don't see that happening with Donald Trump." Eileen goes on to describe the former president as a "narcissistic toddler." You can watch the full video below or click the link here. During an appearance on MSNBC, longtime
Washington insider Jonathan Alter claimed that Donald Trump's gag orders are especially important to watch. Alter, a contributor for MSNBC who has covered 11 presidential campaigns and recently secured a seat at the ex-president's hush money trial in
New York starting April 15th, appeared on the network on Saturday. He was asked about the upcoming trial, which he will be observing. "What to expect to see in court? What kind of evidence you expect to be featured?" the host asked.

"We do not know whether Trump will take the stand in his own defense. It is less likely, given the steamy details of this case that he does. You cannot rule it out," he added. "In the meantime, something quite extraordinary happened at the end of last week." "Judge Reggie Walton, a federal judge not connected to the case, took extraordinary action. He went on television and denounced Trump for his comments, which led to the gag order that Judge Merchan has applied in this case," he said. "And Judge Chutkan applied a gag order in the past." He continued: "Gag orders normally are for hardcore criminals who cannot restrain themselves. The idea that a former president of the United States needs a gag order not to attack our judges and system of government and court employees and relatives of the judge. It is shocking and we should not lose our sense of outrage about how horrible former president Trump's conduct is in this legal realm." Watch the full MSNBC interview below or click the link here.

Trump campaign adviser is out to debunk the ex-president's latest "lies" about President
Joe Biden and Easter. MAGA influencers raged Saturday against Biden and the White House, claiming that the president has declared Easter to be "transgender visibility day." The Trump campaign joined in parroting this line, and it was reported on
Fox News. But A.J. Delgado, formerly a senior adviser to the Trump presidential campaign in 2016 who worked for the Trump transition team after the 2016
election, is taking a blowtorch to the MAGA claim. ALSO READ: ‘It’s on my ID’: Presidential candidate Literally Anybody Else explains legal name change Conservative Matt Walsh, who has been referred to as a "wingnut" who says the quiet part out loud, called Biden a "demon." "I have as low an opinion of Biden as you can possibly have and yet this is so outrageously evil that I had to check to make sure it was real. It is," Walsh said Saturday. "Our 'catholic' president has chosen the highest holiday on the Christian calendar to celebrate transgenderism. This man is a demon." Former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy also repeated the argument: "Joe Biden just proclaimed that 'Transgender Visibility Day' is on Sunday, March 31st," he wrote. "I wonder how he came up with that date." But all of that is nonsense, Delgado explained. "For those of you with an IQ higher than 50 (this excludes much of MAGA), or ethics higher than a con-artist (this excludes much of MAGA), let me explain to you their latest bullshit re [Easter]," she said. "You'll see a lot of liars or low-IQ influencers shrieking that Biden has declared Easter as 'transgender visibility day,' linking to a
White House statement acknowledging March 31st as Transgender Visibility Day." The attorney goes on to explain that the date is a mere coincidence. "This year, Easter happens to fall on March 31st. (It falls on a different day each year -- sometimes in March, sometimes in April)," she said. "They're taking this and claiming that Biden has turned Easter into a day to celebrate trans. After all, he picked to make this 'March 31st = trans day' proclamation on the one year where March 31st is the day Easter falls on. OK, let's explore that." That, too, "leads you to the land of the stupid and/or liars," she added. "Because, a five second
Google search reveals Biden didn't choose 'March 31st' as trans day. Rather, that tradition started a DECADE ago." "But wait, it gets better," she said. "Not only did 'March 31st = trans visibility day' start a decade ago (and no, it wasn't Biden and his advisors sitting around, deliberately picking the day on which Easter falls this year)... but also...Biden has issued these March 31st proclamations every year he's been in office." "Was Biden supposed to ABSTAIN from issuing a [statement] in support of trans-visibility THIS year (even though he's issued the [statement] every other year, for March 31st), just [because], randomly, Easter happens to fall on March 31st this year?" she asked.

"A deliberate push for his extreme policies," declared Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson (R-NC). "They must be stopped," warned
Donald Trump Jr . "Disgraceful," claimed Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY). The cause of their moral outrage? A flyer and an international holiday that has existed since 2010. Specifically, the conservatives were angry over a White House invitation inviting children from families of the National Guard submit artwork to appear on the traditional holiday event eggs kindly refrain from using religious symbols. It also asks kids not to submit artwork that is disparaging, defamatory, hateful, discriminatory, unlawful, or promoting drugs or firearms. While the White House does not make any distinction toward a particular religion, the far right leaders who expressed their outrage felt the restriction was an insult to one in particular. "Joe Biden has taken it upon himself to disrespect our Christian values," said Robinson. "He bans Christian symbols," said Stefanik. The trio also were particularly outraged that the White House decided this year to acknowledge the Trans Day of Visibility , which normally falls on March 31 and this year, on Easter.

" Today, we show millions of transgender and nonbinary Americans that we see them, they belong, and they should be treated with dignity and respect." Trump Jr. responded with the statement, "This is the left's new religion. They want people worshiping the trans flag instead of God." Religion was pushed to the forefront of the political discussion this week when his father, former President Donald Trump, decided to hawk $60 Bibles amid financial woes that include legal fees linked to civil and criminal trials and dwindling campaign coffers .

Trump also managed to pull artwork into the 2024 presidential race debate by sharing images of Biden hog-tied , raising concerns that his increasingly aggressive rhetoric could result in violence against elected officials . “No one is saying Trump can’t campaign or that he can’t criticize Biden,” former prosecutor Joyce Vance said in her plea for greater restrictions against the former president. “What he can’t do is suggest Biden should be kidnapped, knocked out & bound in the back of a pickup truck. I can’t believe that I have to write that out—there is no universe in which that’s acceptable.” CONTINUE READING Show less
