I'm here to learn how to survive in a dystopian Trump autocracy.
The editorial board of a publication in Sen. Mike Lee's home state of Utah called on him to apologize for his posts about the Minnesota shootings, writing that they โwere unacceptable for anyone, let alone from a member of the Senate.โ

People gathered on public property to speak out against an unjust detention. They were met with armored vehicles, riot gear, and chemical agents. It was excessive. It was avoidable.

In Trumpโs first administration, he was surrounded by buffers and filtersโnow he has amplifiers. Thomas Friedman joined @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social on Washington Week to discuss how leaders are viewing the instability, and Trumpโs feud with Musk:

Gavin Newsom slams feds for deploying 2,000 National Guard troops to Los Angeles amid immigration protests, calling it โpurposefully inflammatoryโ and a move to create a spectacle, not solve law enforcement needs.

Theyโre slashing coverage for millions, because they call poverty a scam.
This isnโt about waste. Itโs about blame.
Are you worried about your retirement savings going down in flames?
Did you know that Donald Trump just called you "Weak" and "Stupid"?
There's something weird happening where The Discourse about the tariffs is about how Trump is trying to return us to 1950's and 1960's, the manufacturing heyday of America, but he's not! He' been very very explicit about this. He wants to return us to the 1890's. That's a different project!

โMake a dealโor face a very bad day.โ
Iran just fired back:
โWe donโt negotiate with a gun to our head.โ
No allies. No backchannels.
Just Trump, the bomb, and a countdown.
Saturday could be diplomacy
or detonation.
Musk's "deferred resignation" contract is a TRAP.
Anyone who signs it WAIVES all rights to pursue legal action against the government -- including TO ENFORCE THE RESIGNATION AGREEMENT ITSELF.
So Musk and Trump can just break the contract, and there's nothing you can do.
If Biden wants access to classified materials he'll have to book a tee time at Mar-a-Lago like everyone else.

And now the press can't even bring itself to use *that* term.
The top agent at the FBIโs New York field office vowed in a defiant email to his staff to "dig in" after the Trump administration targeted officials involved in the investigations into the Jan. 6 attack โ and praised the bureauโs interim leaders for defending its independence.
