Tanks in the streets. A $45 million ego trip. And a dangerous slide into authoritarianism. The Big Picture has two must-reads this week, one on Trump’s birthday travesty, and one on how we can stop it. Now’s the time to get informed. buff.ly/DbA0NVk

The East Coast has shown up, 2.4 million and counting, with massive turnouts in small towns across the country. Shoutout to the Carolinas, Georgia, and Ohio for showing up strong!

A 34 felony convictions man, who pardoned all the insurrectionist, is telling us he wants to go after the criminals and calls himself a "law and order" president.
