Hit with higher insurance premiums? Trump is making them even higher.
Forced into bankruptcy by medical debt? Trump doesn’t care.
Worried that’ll impact your credit score? Trump wants it to.

"It’s a wild assault on state sovereignty, bringing us ever closer to the brink of civil war. This is despotism, & whatever chaos & violence is about to be unleashed lies squarely on the robed shoulders of Roberts, Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, & Barrett."

Surreal moment for America. Needless to say, if the normal police ever pulled something like this — pulling every single person out of an apartment building and handcuffing them to run warrant checks — they would be sued into oblivion.
Yet ICE is going to get away with it entirely.

I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

Yesterday we learned that Trump micromanages the prosecution of his enemies and that the head of his secret police was filmed accepting a $50k bribe in a paper bag. Still, for the editors of NYT, the sanctification of Charlie Kirk, saint and martyr is a bigger news story. This paper is soulless.
