“NYT reported that in Trump’s first month in office, he has carried out an unprecedented campaign of retributionagainst his perceived enemies, many who worked in his first regime. His retribution has gone beyond high profile individuals to lower ranks of the government and media. Some conservative groups have made target lists public of federal workers. Unlike past presidents, Trump has not been curbed in any way by the Legislative branch. On Wednesday, Elon Musk attacked Reuters after an article saying “DOGE cuts based more on political ideologythan real cost savings so far.” Musk falsely claimed Reuters was getting paid millions in a contract for “social deception.” Trump amplified Musk, tweeting, “Radical Left Reuters was paid $9,000,000 by the Department of Defense to study “large scale social deception.”” The truth was the contract was signed during the first regime, and was for help defending against cyberattacks. On Wednesday, the executive editor of the Associated Press called on the White House to stop blocking its reporters from press events, accusing the regime of violating the First Amendment.”

“In closing, any of the themes this week, on their own, would be front page, top of the hour for weeks on end in normal times. Trump is transforming the country at a dizzying pace, and it is more important than ever to take the time to stay informed and involved. My hope is this project will give you a means to read and digest a weekly summary, see what you missed, and take on the gravity of it all at once. Then use that outrage, anger, disappointment, fright, embarrassment — every, and all emotions — to galvanize yourself to get in gear and push back, in whatever ways you can. I noted a shift a few weeks ago of the awakening Democrats, getting back into gear: taking to the streets, hanging signs over roadways, boycotting, and other mobilization actions. This trends continues, and it is of the upmost importance that we all be the guardians of our young country’s experiment with democracy, because that experiment has gone awry and is failing.”
