Trump's wannabe dictator playbook:

1) Create fake emergency
2) Bypass Congress and public debate
3) Grab emergency powers
4) Repeat

(from June)

Trump’s Fake Emergencies Follow Authoritarian Playbook
Trump is using fake crises to grab power, echoing tactics of autocrats. Americans must recognize the pattern and resist.

Regarding the flooding: GOP doesn’t want to fund the programs that predict these things, but they still want to blame the federal government for not predicting this. DOGE has consequences

Sen Bernie Sanders (I-VA) just now on CNN:

"We have a President moving this country rapidly into authoritarianism. He's suing media who criticize him. He's going after law firms that have clients who were against him. He's suing universities who teach courses he doesn't like"

I don’t know how many times we have to say this, but the U.S. government is not a business and shouldn’t be run like one. It’s a service—for the people.

He's granting pardons to get around the court and rule of law - and to extort donations.

He's firing Inspector Generals so nobody is there to call out his corruption.

He's strong-arming his cowardly cult following in Congress to stifle any dissent.

He's arresting judges who dare defy his orders.
