We are seven months away from the most consequential midterm election in the history of the United States. Meanwhile, we are fighting a war. These are the structural conditions for a coup attempt in which a president tries to nullify elections and take permanent power as a dictator. If we see this, we can stop it, overcome the movement that brought us to this point, and make a turn towards something better.

Senator Whitehouse is right, and this clip really shows what’s going on.
Here we have four nominees for the bench, people who want to become judges, and they’re not able to say that Biden won the 2020 election, for fear of being disapproved of. Think about that. Over 60 judges said the election was free and fair and that Trump lost. Even AG Bill Barr and Voter Czar Chris Krebs, who were appointed by Trump, said he lost.
Do you understand the level of dissonance required for someone committed to the law, someone who wants to be a judge, to not be able to state that basic fact? It’s really sad. Orwell's 2 + 2= 5 if Big Brother says so.
But I want to reinforce something important: brainwashing doesn’t erase a person’s core self. It creates dissonance. But they will still have to face their family, their friends, and their law school classmates.
What do you think about this? Put your comments below.

The charter designates Trump chairman for life, independent of his US presidency.
He pledged $10 billion at the first meeting. Congress had authorized zero dollars and was not consulted. Foreign governments received the charter before lawmakers did.
He skipped Senate ratification entirely. Every major international organization the US has ever joined - UN, NATO, World Bank, IMF - went through Congress. This one didn’t.
At the inaugural meeting he said: “Once this board is completely formed, we can do pretty much whatever we want to do.”
Chairman for life. No Senate vote. No appropriation. Continues past 2029.
Fairchild’s point is that grifting is a hustle. This is a different category.

The lead article in #LePoint from #France (“The Great Heist”)is an extensive investigation into the intersection of Trump’s second term and his and family’s private business interests. The report argues that the White House under Trump has shockingly been transformed into a "cash machine" for the #Trump family and their associates.
Key themes of the article include:
1. The "Crypto-President": The report examines how the administration’s shift toward pro-crypto policies coincided with the launch of Trump-branded digital assets and "World Liberty Financial," alleging that regulatory decisions are being influenced by the President's personal holdings.
2. Insider Trading Allegations: Le Point investigates "troubling" market fluctuations that occur immediately following the President's social media posts or policy announcements. It suggests that a small circle of "insiders" may be profiting from prior knowledge of these shifts.
3. Real Estate & Private Clubs: The article details how foreign delegations and lobbyists continue to frequent Trump-owned properties (like Mar-a-Lago), creating a system where access to the Commander-in-Chief is effectively a commercial transaction.
4. The "Trumpification" of Washington: Beyond the money, the article describes an "aesthetic of power," where the President’s personal brand—symbolized by the gold coin shown on the cover—is being merged with the official symbols of the American state as the country approaches its 250th anniversary.
The tone of the piece is highly critical, framing these actions not just as ethical lapses, but as a systematic "heist" of democratic norms for private gain.

The company behind the January 6th rally that led to the attack on the U.S. Capitol has collected over $22 million of your taxpayer dollars. And the federal government made sure nobody else could compete for it.
Welcome to Episode 11 of the Corruption Chronicles.
Event Strategies Inc., a firm packed with Trump insiders, has been handed contract after contract through no-bid loopholes, including exemptions meant for wartime emergencies, to cover food, drinks, and AV equipment at Trump events.
Before Trump's second term, they had $186,000 in federal contracts, and in the last year, they got $22 million in contracts.
This is your money. You should know what they are doing with it.

Instead of going to Easter mass, Donald Trump called into Fox News and threatened Iran with war crimes, took a presidential motorcade tour of the area where he plans to build an arch honoring himself, and golfed. thedailybeast.com/trump-skips-ch…
