We will soon start to see services the government provides for us disappear. Maybe entirely, maybe just crippled enough that it doesn’t function correctly. Take a look at what services you receive from the government and make plans for what you would do if you had to live without it.

A top economics reporter goes off script on national TV: “I am going to say this at risk of my job, but what President Trump is doing is insane.”

A top White House aide calls a Senator who disagrees with Trump a traitor. The Trump administration seizes and tries to deport a green card holder here legally who's been charged with no crime. The Trump administration ignores laws governing hiring, firing, and spending. The path to despotism.

The strength of the dollar is of major concern, particularly as inflation worsens. It may be helpful to store money in foreign currency, and I’ve had success with this app.

NEW — Per Homeland Security & State Department sources, the Trump administration is staking its entire case to deport Mahmoud Kahlil not on whether he broke a law, but on Secretary of State Marco Rubio “personally” deciding Khalil would “compromise” US foreign policy.

“A growing number of Americans have become not just tolerant of, but affirmatively for, authoritarianism. The corollary being: In 2024, some significant portion of voters chose Trump not in spite of his explicitly authoritarian program but because of it.” www.thebulwark.com/p/new-data-r...

Holy shit. The United States was not invited to the NATO summit on Ukraine in Paris on March 11. There’s no other meaning: The United States was just benched for colluding with the enemy.

Now is the time to decide how to protect yourself from the government’s attention and surveillance. Or, if you choose to openly resist, how to prepare for persecution.

The arrest of Mahmoud Khalil is the most openly autocratic action of this administration, done blatantly and in plain sight to demonstrate their power. Whether they obey this judge’s order is, to me, a bellwether for if we’ve completely left democracy behind.

Seems like has been very little coverage of protests happening in the U.S.--not necessarily an intentional media blackout (although possibly), but the result of a longstanding stance in legacy media that protests aren't worth covering, activists aren't credible sources (but somehow CEOs are), etc.

There is this nagging thought in the back of my head that if the government shuts down it will give the president a pretext to declare a nationwide emergency, which would dramatically expand and concentrate his power. I hope I’m just being dramatic but I’d rather be ready.

This is not merely an inconvenience - movement into the US is becoming more restricted each week. It is a distinct possibility that the rules will eventually restrict movement out as well. Stay vigilant.

There is a sneaky factor hidden in the fact that politicians are facing intimidation and threats if they speak out: the unofficial enforcers of the autocrat’s power are active. Lesson #6: Be wary of paramilitaries.
