Episode 124: January 26, 2025: Welcome to It!

We are back with a new episode as Donald comes back into office and starts to implement Project 2025.

Kamala for POTNE 2024!

Kamala for POTNE! https://haikuthenews.io/response/2024-07-25T21:07:35.123Z I’m very sad to see Joe go. But it’s impossible to miss the vibe shift.
