I'd stopped posting these because they were getting lost in the Second Term of Trump thread - hence their own thread. I'll try to keep on top of these in the future

The authoritarian takeover is escalating, but so is the resistance. ?️?

From city halls to state highways, local leaders are drawing lines in the sand to challenge every federal power grab. This Labor Day, the May Day Strong movement is mobilizing to send a clear signal from the people: we see this takeover, and we will not let it go unchecked.Don’t leave truth to the algorithm.

Today’s events represent a coordinated, multi-front assault.

We're forced to watch a spectacle of shameless grift, from the massive crypto payday for the Trump and Witkoff families guaranteed by a self-dealing arrangement to the nation's highest honor given to Rudy Giuliani. The noise covers for the quiet sabotage of our ability to function. They are gutting public health and scrapping climate data. Giuliani is the perfect symbol of this cynical game. He’s a COVID denier who took the special care denied to others, now rewarded for helping dismantle the very systems meant to protect us all.

He was disbarred for lying about the 2020 election results, but he probably won't mind as he receives the Medal of Freedom.

Congress is back in session this week. Tell your representatives to do their job and stop the rot.

The long weekend is over, and so is the quiet. ?

Trump came back swinging, threatening Chicago with troops and ordering military strikes while his allies pushed Christian prayer in schools and smeared a top CDC official who quit to protest the administration's public health policies. But the pushback is just as fierce, from the courts blocking his illegal firings to the grand juries rejecting his prosecutors.

This fight is happening everywhere at once. Saddle up and get on the phone with your representatives.

?⚙️? The showy stuff sits in plain view while the real power grabs are offstage.

Petty political theater like a White House flyover billed as a diplomatic tribute and a Rose Garden tech dinner without Musk is the distraction. What can’t be ignored is the machinery making it stick, from new Jan. 6 rewrite committees to new rules to jam nominees to fresh deportation gambits.

Call your reps, tell them to back the court fights, and push your local officials to reinforce the guardrails now.

US considers banning Iranians from shopping at Costco during UN meeting​

By MATTHEW LEE / Updated 8:18 PM GMT-5, September 4, 2025
HOUSTON (AP) — The Trump administration already has denied visas for Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas and his large delegation to attend a high-level U.N. meeting this month and is now considering ramping up restrictions on several other delegations that would severely limit their ability to travel outside New York City.
Potential travel and other restrictions could soon be imposed on the delegations from Iran, Sudan, Zimbabwe and, perhaps surprisingly, Brazil, which has held a traditional place of honor during the high-level leaders gathering at the U.N. General Assembly that begins Sept. 22, according to an internal State Department memo seen by The Associated Press.
While the potential restrictions are still under consideration and the circumstances could change, the proposals would be another step in the Trump administration’s crackdown on visas, including a wide-ranging review of those already holding legal permissions to come to the U.S. and those seeking entry to head to the U.N. meeting.

Mr. President,
have you forgotten your recent summit conference you chose to host in Alaska, entertaining mass murderer Vlad Putin? That's OK with you, but those dastardly Iranians are the problem?

Trump seeks to rebrand the Department of Defense as the Department of War​


note:
The War Department existed for 158 years, from August 7, 1789, to September 18, 1947, when it split into the Department of the Army and the Department of the Air Force under the National Security Act of 1947, joining the Department of the Navy to form the National Military Establishment (NME).
In 1949, the NME was renamed the Department of Defense (DOD). More from Wikipedia

It’s not your imagination; reality is warping.

This is the day the gaslighting went into overdrive. All organizations spin facts, but Trump and his allies are building an alternate reality where science is buried, military history is rewritten for a slogan, and top officials invent fictions on national TV.

They're using 1984-style New Speak that is designed to confuse and exhaust. Their goal is to bend truth so it becomes what they say it is. We must be the ones who hold the line. Be that person in your community because others are warping reality. Some are complicit, but many are just good people who are exhausted.
