Hvorfor får ikke dette større oppmerksomhet i mediene?
Trump didn’t declare martial law. He built it. His April 28 executive order militarizes police, guts oversight, and punishes dissent. The Insurrection Act report is hidden. Democracy is being signed away—one order at a time. #Resist #Authoritarianism Full Article: www.facebook.com/share/p/16KE...

This has included terminating more than 1,000 grants in areas such as climate change, cancer, and HIV prevention.

This image will go down in infamy: Kristi Noem using abused El Salvadoran prisoners—some of whom she illegally deported in the dark of night, without due process—as props in a Trump ad in which she sports a $60,000 Rolex

These men have already been left in a hole to die—was that not enough for her?

Veldig skarpt fra Philippe Legrain. «there is little point in pining for a lost world order; everyone must adapt to the emerging Broken World era. The threats are huge, but there are also opportunities.»
Broken World
Trump is destroying the post-1945 economic and geopolitical order that the US created and led. What comes next?
