Trump and Stephen Miller and Pete Hegseth etal are expecting violence once they call off midterm elections. It's coming or they wouldn't be putting National Guard troops in place. They'll cancel elections base on "national security" reasons. Reasons they've actually created themselves. Buckle up!

This isn't about DC crime. It isn't about keeping the public safe. It's about protecting the seat of power. Barriers around the Whitehouse and Federal checkpoints on DC streets speak more to riot and crowd control than a city's published crime rates. The question is why? What's coming? What's next?
Kris Hillenburg (@hillenburg.bsky.social)
If you think this is only about DC then you've not been paying attention. Trump taking over DC is him sticking his toe in the water to see the reaction. If no one pushes back he'll try it in other places. He'll start with undesirables like the homeless and mentally ill. After that ... who knows?

This immediately conjured up images of Hitler at the 1936 Olympics for me. Trump insinuates himself into everything. Takes credit for everything even when he's not involved and keeps himself perpetually in the news. I can only imagine how this will go. The 2028 Olympics wil be one big Trump ad.

The affect of Trump's trade war is to upend the world's economy. An economy that was set for record growth.

Trump has forced partners and allies to rethink their relationship with the US. They are taking steps to reduce financial and trade dependence with the once dominant and prominent country. This is fundamentally changing the world both politically and economically. He had no idea what he's started.

The rise of populism in the world isn't surprising given the increased anti-immigration, anti-establishment, and anti-anybody-other-than sentiment. Placing blame is a natural human tendency. What's frightening is the fascistic hate filled rhetoric neo-populists are using. It's 1933 all over again.

The American Courts, including the Supreme Court, do one thing and one thing only. They determine what is lawful and what is not based on the US Constitution. They have no power to enforce or legislate their decisions. If you are expecting them to save US Democracy you will be sadly disappointed.
