Trump’s Campaign to Defund the Arts—and Rewrite History "The campaign to defund the arts, capture our museums, and rewrite our history is a prelude to silencing dissent."

Just days after I warned in TIME about the authoritarian playbook to defund the arts and rewrite history, the White House fired the entire Fine Arts Commission—6 members who review presidential construction projects, including Trump’s new ballroom. This isn’t coincidence. It’s confirmation.

That wasn’t reckless
It was intentional
He was directly threatening the good people of California

He wants to be a dictator
And unfortunately
The military has shown they will not be a guard rail of civilian protection

Dangerous days

Oh it’s not appropriate for your program to air the president wearing a crown and shitting on American citizens?

You’ll talk about it in euphemisms? Maybe call it the “crown video” and ignore the shitting part? Because that’s appropriate?

Tell me, was it appropriate for the president to do it?

This is a blatant attempt to silence and isolate us. He’s stopping the trains, closing the freeways and firing live rounds into California. We will not be intimidated. We will not be silenced. #NoKings

Millions of people continue to sleep through the takeover of America. Meanwhile, Trump is trying to silence anybody that is sounding the alarm. Fear, chaos, and our military in the streets is NOT normal.

"some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily execute civilians" says today's New York Times, continuing their long tradition of whitewashing fascism

Absolute all-timer sentence in today's @nytimes.com

"We are asking the Department of War to deploy to our cities" should be a statement that ends any Governor's political career.

People of Illinois, we need your help.

Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors.

We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

She is my Appalachian queen and I have loved her my whole life

Please explain

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it?

If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say?

Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

Another big tech company capitulated today as YouTube agreed to pay $24.5 million to settle a bogus lawsuit brought by Trump.

Here's what I can promise you: Democracy Docket will never bow down. It will never compromise. It will never obey.

You could do some serious good trouble here

All the tea should be spilled
For the sake of the nation

Quick update for those of you tracking the rise of autocracy...

The Trump Administration's DHS officers appear to be carrying large weapons around downtown Chicago in camouflage and masks.

This is not making anybody safer — it’s a show of intimidation, instilling fear in our communities and hurting our businesses.

Millions spent by Hegseth on…a pep rally talk to the generals?

FDA approved the abortion pill mifepristone 25 years ago.

So why is RFK Jr. raising questions about it now? He's trying to roll back abortion access nationwide.

I'll keep fighting against attempts to restrict access—because medication abortion is safe and effective. Period.

This shouldn’t matter. But also - it can’t only matter when it’s not right-wing violence.
