All my life I have studied democratization and autocratization. My 1st field trip was to newly democratic Argentina. I then added autocracies to my portfolio: Cuba, Ven, etc. I think I can recognize the stages of transition to authoritarianism. Here are the boxes Trump has already checked off.

We were heartbroken to learn of Dr. Jane Goodall's passing. She changed the way we understand animals and has inspired millions, including each of us on Team MUTTS.
Thank you, Jane, for being a bright light, an incredible role model, and the embodiment of humanity's connection to the natural world.

Soooooo.... now the effed up government is airing commercials during MNF here in Chicago trying to lure Chicago cops into leaving the force and joining ICE and getting 50k and student loan forgiveness in return (to start). Just wow.

Did you know? Fostering can exponentially increase a pet's chance of being adopted. Outside of the shelter, pets can decompress, let their true personality shine, and improve their social skills! Not only that, it can clear a space in the shelter for another pet in need of being rescued.

But your government has chosen to do this to you. As of this morning, markets are down and inflation is set to rise dramatically."

Treasury Department officials admitted today that the agency “mistakenly” and “briefly” gave a member of Musk’s DOGE team the power to alter a sensitive federal payments database. The disclosure undercuts the Trump administration’s repeated claims that access was limited to a “read-only” basis.
