Trump's campaign of destruction ... Fake
emergencies ... Pointless and farcical executive orders ... Gangsterism ...
Looting ... Corruption ... Shakedowns ... White rage ... Christian nationalism
... Roger Fitch unloads
"Trump
leaps from one impulsive, uninformed notion to another, unaware or unmoved by
the harm he is inflicting. When reporters challenge him with facts, he often
becomes irate ... The least informed, least curious, least logical, least
credible, least responsible president in history is not about to change. He
cares deeply about acquiring power to inflict harm, knowing nothing about the
victims. After all, the recession won't affect him or his crypto-empire. What
does he care if Americans bear the brunt of his unhinged behaviour?" - Jennifer
Rubin, the Contrarian.

Donald Trump kept his
campaign promise to be a "dictator on Day One". No longer an
incipient fascist, he's an unabashed tyrant. His destruction of the existing order during
his first 100 days has
been described as "Roosevelt in
reverse" and compared to the Chinese Cultural
Revolution. His authoritarian
actions are likened to those of Erdogan,
a mad king or
a Roman emperor (e.g, Augustus,
smashing the Republic).
Powered
by fake
"emergencies", Trump has "gone 1984".
His Orwellian-titled executive orders are
designed to destroy what they purport to protect, through (now) nonsense-named
agencies like DOJ's "Civil Rights
Division", dedicated to eradicating
existing equal opportunities for women and minorities and abandoning
enforcement of police reform consent decrees, while dismissing
voting rights lawsuits.
At Homeland
Security, the "Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties" is stripping civil
liberties from citizens and immigrants alike. The gutted Education
Department's "Office of Civil Rights" is
"rolling back" and "re-orienting", now targeting
minorities.
Trump's
contempt for civil rights, culture, media, lawyers, judges and universities (especially Harvard),
along with unlawful tariffs, DOGE raids,
cruelty (even to native Americans and children)
and ultra
vires deportations, are horrifying.
America's
self-destruction will get as bad as Americans allow; so far, they're responding
as if in a Milgram
Experiment.

Trump's first 100
days have come and gone. The Guardian reported
on the 141 "Executive Orders"
he signed. Law prof Michael Dorf provided helpful "Can he actually
do that?" comments on many of them.
These EO's, and
those that followed, have been, by turns, silly (Ending
Procurement and Forced Use of Paper Straws); propaganda (Reinvigorating
America's Beautiful Clean Coal Industry; false declarations (Ending the
Weaponization of the Federal Government); defamatory (Addressing Risks
Associated with an Egregious Leaker and Disseminator of Falsehoods);
vindictive (Rescinding
Security Clearances …from Specified Individuals); and punitive,
sanctioning Democrats' legal representatives.
Trump's
executive orders directed towards individuals and their past actions are ex
post facto, "Bills of
Attainder" that are specifically
prohibited under the constitution.
Others are also
clearly unconstitutional, such as Directing the
Repeal of Unlawful Regulations, and revising supreme
court precedent.
There's
gratuitous meddling (Protecting
Children from Chemical and Surgical Mutilation (not about male
circumcision); union-busting (Limiting Lame
Duck Collective Bargaining Agreements that Improperly Attempt to Constrain the
New President); and open corruption (Pausing Foreign
Corrupt Practices Act Enforcement…).
EO's are
shameful and deadly (Withdrawing the
US from and Ending Funding to …UN organizations and Reviewing US Support to All
International Organizations); laughable (Eradicating
Anti-Christian Bias); pointless (Designating
English as the Official Language of the US); and alarming (Unleashing
America's Law Enforcement).
There's even
"Restoring Truth
and Sanity to American History".
Imagine, Donald
Trump lecturing on truth and sanity.
Who drafts
these EO's? Trump's "criminal defence counsel" in his felony cases,
the front bench in his Justice Department, are now simply crime counsel,
unscrupulous mob lawyers.
In Trump's EOs,
they have turned on their own tribe, the private bar, with tribute being
exacted and paid, e.g, by big law firms whose business interruption insurance
doesn't cover government libel, extortion and
solicitation of bribes, secondary boycotts or pro bono shakedowns.
