Donald Trump’s fascism couldn’t exist today if we weren’t a country where George W. Bush could just disappear into cozy, pleasant retirement, make a few public appearances a year, & enjoy 52% approval, as if eight years of lies, crimes, constitutional violations, & policy negligence never happened.

The only appropriate response to this is impeachment and removal from office. Every moment the political press spends spinning out theories about 2026 and immigration polling is a minute they are not spending asking Republicans in Congress about their plans to enforce the rule of law

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

There's a dark truth behind Trump's tariffs: Absolute control.
Trump's tariffs will be a potent and unilateral mechanism for reintroducing systematic corruption into the economy—and total control over its most influential players.
