MAGA TURNS on Elon Musk, DISASTER
The MAGA movement is facing internal turmoil over H-1B visas, with figures like Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy supporting their expansion while MAGA loyalists fiercely oppose them. Musk argues the U.S. lacks enough skilled workers, making the visas vital for innovation, but this has triggered backlash from Trump loyalists like Laura Loomer, who see it as undermining "America First" policies. This conflict reflects a deeper identity crisis within MAGA.

OH NO: Trump sides with Elon Musk over MAGA
Donald Trump has sided with Elon Musk in a MAGA dispute over H-1b visas but appears to misunderstand the program. In a New York Post interview, Trump claimed to use H-1b visas at his properties, though his clubs actually rely on H-2b visas for seasonal workers. This highlights Trump’s confusion about immigration policies he once restricted and now supports. His flip-flop and factual errors undermine his credibility on the topic that he has made central to his agenda.
From over the weekend:
Republican problems are only JUST beginning
As 2024 ends and Trump’s second term looms, the Republican Party is showing deep internal cracks. MAGA factions are clashing, and Trump’s disruptive actions, like pushing for a shutdown, preview chaos ahead. Republicans remain divided and unprepared for Trump’s costly agenda, setting the stage for potential fallout over the next four years.
From over the weekend:
The blue state revolution that MAGA is completely missing
Blue states outperform red states in economic growth, health care, education, and social progress through investments in innovation and inclusive policies. Despite claiming success, red states face brain drain, poor health outcomes, and reliance on federal funds generated by blue states. Culture wars and resistance to progress in red states deepen inequality, while blue states drive advancements like climate action and healthcare affordability.
