Now he’s threatening “war” on Chicago. This is authoritarianism in action.

Today the court reminded him: retaliation isn’t leadership. It’s authoritarianism. #InformedAF Source: @npr.org04 Sep 2025 12:02 +0000at://did:plc:szhozjcr4yv4pl7v3k5fvls4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lxz3ymebe22ehttps://bsky.app/profile/informedaf.bsky.social/post/3lxxq4cwdr22fThey’re saying the quiet part out loud: Trump’s allies want to use “emergency powers” to control elections — with the military as enforcers. Authoritarianism isn’t coming. It’s here. #InformedAF @democracydocket.com03 Sep 2025 22:56 +0000at://did:plc:szhozjcr4yv4pl7v3k5fvls4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lxxq4cwdr22fhttps://bsky.app/profile/informedaf.bsky.social/post/3lxaz63of3k2yTrump appointed Heather Honey, a leading election conspiracy theorist to a DHS role overseeing election security and disinformation.

Nicole Collier to take a state trooper escort every time she left the Capitol. She refused — and is now effectively locked inside the House chamber. This isn’t procedure. It’s political surveillance and coercion. #InformedAF #DemocracyinCrisis19 Aug 2025 04:11 +0000at://did:plc:szhozjcr4yv4pl7v3k5fvls4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lwq2a4svmc2vhttps://bsky.app/profile/informedaf.bsky.social/post/3lwpgshy3yc2yTrump says he’ll ban mail-in ballots + voting machines. With Congress? Possible. Without? Red states could fall in line anyway. This isn’t democracy — it’s the plan to dismantle it before 2026. #InformedAF #WTFDidHeSay18 Aug 2025 22:23 +0000at://did:plc:szhozjcr4yv4pl7v3k5fvls4/app.bsky.feed.post/3lwpgshy3yc2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/informedaf.bsky.social/post/3lwp4si76rs2yTrump says he’ll scrap mail-in ballots and voting machines. Translation: millions lose their vote + chaos takes over. This isn’t democracy.

Next, it’s marriage equality. More than half of states already have bans ready to go if the Supreme Court overturns Obergefell v. Hodges. This isn’t hypothetical.
