The Social Contract with Joe Walsh

Donald Trump sicked the Justice Department on the Fed chair because the baby in the White House wants lower interest rates. ICE doubles down on their cruelty, and…could someone let me know if they find Congress? That branch of government has been missing for almost a year.

2026 must be the year of the resistance. With a mad, dangerous king in the White House, this must be the year we stop reacting to everything he does, but instead lead the charge by protesting, boycotting, informing, organizing, and voting. My conversation with long time Democrat Edwin Eisendrath.

Trump wants there to be violence, chaos and death on our streets. Because he believes it will help him politically. Pretty astounding thing to say about an American president, huh? But it’s true. He wanted Jan 6th to be violent because he wanted the election overturned. He wants violence on our streets in 2026 because he thinks it’ll help him win the midterms. Don’t give it to him.

I confess to being surprised that so many people and so many leaders here and around the world STILL haven’t accepted the truth about Donald Trump. After all these years, so many people still don’t want to acknowledge who Donald Trump is. I know it’s a scary truth, but people better accept it. Because he needs to be stopped.

Five years ago today, our Capitol was attacked. Not by foreign armies. By American citizens. In a violent attempt to overthrow an American election. These Americans were led and inspired by the lies of a traitor to this country. That traitor, that enemy of democracy, is back in power 5yrs later. We will never be the same.

Invading Venezuela and kidnapping its leader was illegal, unconstitutional, and immoral. Trump had no legal authority to do it. It was just wrong. But every day for the past ten yrs, Trump has done illegal, unconstitutional, and immoral things. And we’ve NEVER held him accountable for any of it. So who’s to blame him for thinking he can do whatever he wants?

An American president committed crimes trying to overturn an American election. And the American people put that president back in power. The problem isn’t Trump. The problem is us. The problem is the American people. If we don’t care about our democracy, we’ll lose it. Happy New Year.
