Killing Democracy—And Not Bothering to Hide It The assault is happening in plain sight, from the Epstein case to Texas reapportionment to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

"We’ve reached a new stage in the attempted authoritarian takeover of American democracy. It’s not just that the assault on the truth, the rule of law, a free society has picked up steam. The assault, from our own government, now proceeds openly and unashamedly."

Wall Street Journal headline and deck: "New York Shooting Puts Mamdani on the Spot Over Policing Views: The killing of four people in a Midtown office building rattled a city where mass attacks are rare and violent crime has declined."

“Trump is creating his own personal paramilitary force — an amalgamation of border cops, ICE agents, Homeland Security, sheriff’s deputies, Guardsmen, and military (and probably soon, militia and extremist groups).”

Immigration officials release Portland children detained near border The children had new passports and were presumably preparing for a flight out of the U.S., according to a family friend.

Debunking All the B.S. About Zohran Mamdani Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic nominee for mayor of New York, is facing a wave of Islamophobic misinformation attacking his character and politics
