Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency are clamping down on Social Security, the Department of Education, healthcare research, environmental protection, airline safety, NPR, foreign aid, nuclear security, and more.
Much of it is likely illegal, and virtually all of it happens behind closed doors and without any Congressional oversight, creating unimaginable potential for self-interest and corruption.
Our message to Elon: No more.
The Intercept is suing DOGE under the Freedom of Information Act to demand that it turn over documents the public has a right to see so we can finally figure out exactly what's going on, who's in charge, and what laws they may be breaking.
But we need an urgent influx of funding to ensure we have the resources necessary to wage this fight.
Why does Paramount need trumps approval? That's not normal, is it? Why don't these corporations, news outlets,law firms , universities, judges, etc, stop cowtowing to this administration!!?? Don't they understand that caving to this wannabe dictator will only boost him up to continue his "games"?? I'm so frustrated. These are supposed to be intelligent people!! It's basic elementary school playground bully stuff! If you give the bully your lunch $, or your lunch or do his hw when ever he demands it, HE WILL NEVER STOP!!!🤨 AGH!! So frustrating!!!
Trump filled a $20 Billion lawsuit against paramount claiming 60 Mins “edited an interview of Kamala to win dem votes” and despite the lawsuits being weak af, paramount folded. This is why he thinks he can bully people to get what he wants. Bc of spineless and weak corporations more concerned with $$$ than morals
I think major mergers (kind of hmmmm…creating monopolies) need governmental approval and TRUMP IS THE ENTIRE GOVERNMENT. It all comes down to what else…$$$$$$.
Major mergers in journalism absolutely don't need trump's approval. That's a ridiculous thought. Major mergers in anything don't need trump's approval, or they didn't. Maga elected this asshat because they didn't want big government in anything. What do you call trump's thumb in everything, if not big government? Amazon, was going to put the price of the extra tariff price on all their goods. trump wanted these tariffs, sounds like a great plan to me. He bitched and moaned to Bezos, Bezos folded like a cheap suit in less than an hour after news broke. It's called authoritarianism. Hungary is trying to oust Orban because they want democracy back. They're tired of authoritarianism. Look the story up. Look up the protests they have every Tuesday. The US is in for a world of hurt if this is allowed to continue.
Hmmm. I must have been misinformed. I thought Paramount Global and Skydance Media merger (or any merger) needed government approval under the Hart-Scott-Rodino (HRS) Act. Under this act it was my belief that a premerger notification must be filed and then companies wait for the government to review the potential deal. I also thought the FTC and the Department of Justice are responsible for reviewing mergers to ensure they don't lessen competition - hence my reference to the term monopoly. In the case of Paramount Global merging with Skydance Media I think the FCC is supposed to step in because it has something to do with television licenses held by CBS, whose parent company is of course, Paramount. Now the FCC IS controlled by a Trump loyalist and naturally they need to make sure all those pesky DEI policies go bye bye. I’m sure Trump would *want* to take credit for it if a merger were to ever need governmental approval bc yes indeed, he’s an authoritarian maniac. Anyway, if this has all disappeared under the new regime and if any or all of this is not true, I absolutely stand corrected. I was a business major and have never forgotten some projects I worked on and one was a “faux” merger. This was a long time ago.
Also I agree - Bezos folded so fast I wondered what Trump threatened him with. Deporting Lauren Sanchez’s plastic surgeon? Well we know Orban has undoubtedly given Trump many, many lessons in dictatorship. Listen I was naive - I truly thought millions of people would be in the streets In February or March. I was running around screaming this was going to happen for so long the second he started his day on January 20th I couldn’t believe so many people in my life acted like this is a “normal” presidency - and continue to act this way over the last three months bc they are so spoiled, checked out, oblivious. THEY terrify me. They’re going to sit in their asses when every DAY protests need to happen.
FCC Approval. This is completely different. This is trump's approval. Not just his loyalist he installed at the FCC. trump. trump has to have his nose in everything. I don't think trump cares what the FCC says because it's all about trump. What does trump want.
I think we are all clearly aware that Trump makes EVERYTHING about him and no mergers don’t need *his* approval specifically. I suppose what I stated harkens back to a different world where we didn’t have an egomaniacal dictator who needs to threaten everyone with an iron fist (and often makes good on those threats) and thinks he is not only a King here but that he rules the world (his words about the world, not mine.) This isn’t a battle between us; we should be focused on the sad and horrible fact that 60 Minutes has lost journalistic independence. Once again, he’s forced another legacy media to kiss the ring. Thanks for your observations.
No. But the problem is millions and millions of Americans are, for one reason or other, oblivious to the nightmares happening every day. I know a woman who’s never watched the news. Her thing is “I don’t get into politics.” I’m like lady this has gone far, far, far beyond politics. Others seem spoiled, and literally clueless and don’t realize that yes, this is happening here and we are in the fight for all of our lives. I’m out protesting at a Tesla takedown and these two women in their 20’s just walked by, holding their high end stores’ shopping bags. I think the coming empty shelves and lack of so many countless things on the shelves we rely on might wake people up to the tariffs but who knows. I am 100% continuing to fight and protest but yeah, I expected millions more to care and get in the streets. After each horrible thing he did I thought people would wake up and care more. I’m hoping they do before it’s completely too late.
Wow! There is so much to digest. You all confirmed my thoughts on the subject—it isn't normal at all. I suppose the cavalier way it was spoken made it sound like it was, hence my confusion. I agree with Denise that so many friends and people in general are indeed wandering around as though everything is normal. I have been messaging all my FB people with info on protests and boycotts, or outrageous news posts on the horrible things happening. Some have asked not to because they are "trying to take a break from it all." I have given them all the info I can. I, myself, haven't gotten as much info on the different protests going on since before mid-April, which concerns me. We really can't depend on "the other guy" to do all the work. The whole situation has gone south quickly. I look at the protest crowds in the other countries and feel those are larger... and it's OUR country they are fighting for.
Among the travesties of the past 100 days, it's the threat, the clear and present danger, to our FREEDOM OF SPEECH that is upsetting me most. Because without that, we cannot scream out our protests against all the other evil shit they are doing to us. As a retired person (77), I never thought our FIRST AMENDMENT would be more threatened than the Second Amendment, but here we are.
Make sure you have frequent, moderated online debates with opposing indie journalists (ones that have followers).
Let’s not make the same mistakes that got us here in the first place: MSM echo chambers on both sides where entrenched Americans never heard opposing viewpoints which would have prompted them to think critically about issues.
Avoiding the constant echo chamber model will possibly relax the extremism in this country; and an informed population will have a positive bubbling effect on our elected representatives, prompting them to learn to compromise.
Bring about your own version of The Fairness Doctrine.
We need both sides presented and heard by most of the population more than ever in The Information Age and in the face of the pressures on the Freedom of the Press.
Trump and the Project 2025 goons and thugs are scared out of their pants and the stains they leave behind of media that they cannot control. Too freaking bad. Keep hammering away at them. We are coming up on 250 years and will NEVER submit to this DICTATOR!!! Americans are punching back and will continue to punch back until all these monsters are gone........
The Warning Was Real: Trump's Executive Order Confirms the Move Toward Martial Law
By Tony Pentimalli
On April 1, 2025, I wrote that Donald Trump was preparing to invoke the Insurrection Act. I said it wasn't about immigration. It wasn't about security. It was about power. Many wanted to believe it was alarmism, that the "system" would save us. They were wrong.
Last week, Trump confirmed everything.
On April 28, 2025, Donald Trump signed Executive Order named: "Strengthening and Unleashing America's Law Enforcement to Pursue Criminals and Protect Innocent Citizens." Sounds harmless. It isn't. It's a blueprint for authoritarian control without the need to formally declare martial law.
The order arms local police with military assets. It removes federal oversight from abusive departments. It provides legal immunity to officers who violate civil rights in the course of their "duties." It threatens to punish governors, mayors, and local leaders who resist federal directives. It mandates that DHS and DOJ coordinate the use of Homeland Security Task Forces — task forces created under Executive Order 14159, which explicitly authorizes federal intervention inside American cities.
In other words, it federalizes local law enforcement in everything but name.
Trump doesn’t need to declare martial law. He’s building it brick by brick.
Consider the timing: this order came eight days after the April 20 deadline Trump himself set when he ordered the Department of Defense and the Department of Homeland Security to recommend whether he should invoke the Insurrection Act. To this day, the contents of that April 20 report remain hidden from the public. The administration has refused transparency. But we don’t have to guess what they recommended. Trump’s actions tell us.
This is not hypothetical. This is not a warning of something that "could" happen.
It is happening now.
Militarized policing is here. Trump’s order instructs the Department of Defense to determine how excess military assets, training, "non-lethal capabilities," and even personnel can be funneled into local policing. Already, armored vehicles, battlefield surveillance drones, and riot control weaponry are flowing into local departments.
Civilian oversight is dead. Trump's order directs the Attorney General to review and "modify, rescind, or conclude" all federal consent decrees and monitoring arrangements that "unduly burden" law enforcement. Translation: if a local police department is under federal watch because of corruption, brutality, or racism, Trump now demands that watch end.
Immunity for abuses is guaranteed. If an officer brutalizes a protester or kills an unarmed civilian while "performing their duties," they will have the full legal defense of the federal government behind them. Trump has legalized impunity.
Federal retaliation against dissent is coming. Trump's executive order empowers the Attorney General to "pursue all necessary legal remedies" against any state or city official who tries to protect their communities from federal overreach. If a mayor refuses to allow militarized ICE raids? If a governor defends protest rights? They can now face federal lawsuits, DOJ investigations, and the cutoff of federal funding.
Formal martial law — the suspension of civilian government — isn't declared. It's simply enacted.
This is how authoritarian regimes operate throughout history: by centralizing control over security forces, stripping civilian oversight, immunizing loyal enforcers, and criminalizing local resistance. Trump is following a well-worn, dangerous pattern.
The precedent is clear.
Trump called for "domination" in 2020 and sent unidentified federal agents to snatch protesters off the streets of Portland.
Trump sent federal agents to Lafayette Square to violently clear peaceful protesters for a photo op.
Trump gleefully used ICE and CBP to terrorize immigrant communities, even as courts struggled to intervene.
Trump praised the Supreme Court when it upheld his Muslim ban.
He has never respected dissent. He has never tolerated opposition. And now, he has built the machinery to crush it.
And where are the so-called "checks and balances" now?
The courts? Trump’s Supreme Court majority has already signaled a dangerous deference to executive power.
Congress? House Republicans are in lockstep, and Senate Democrats are paralyzed by institutional cowardice.
The media? Distracted, exhausted, and more interested in covering Trump's photo ops than his executive orders.
The public? Distrustful, divided, and still hoping that someone else will save them.
Trump counts on that passivity. He counts on your fatigue.
That’s why he moves in bursts — a flurry of orders, each more authoritarian than the last, until the norm becomes submission.
We must not submit.
The first time around, Trump tested the waters. Lafayette Square. Portland. Muslim Ban. Family Separation.
This time, he isn't testing.
He's executing.
The streets are being militarized. Civilian oversight is being gutted. Law enforcement is being deputized as the federal government's domestic army. And the groundwork for invoking the Insurrection Act is already finished.
If Trump formally declares it, there will be no need for panic — because the tanks, the raids, the silencing of dissent, and the crushing of opposition will already be in place.
This is not a future threat.
This is a present reality.
Speak. Resist. Now.
Not next month. Not after the next outrage. Not after the next court loss.
Now.
The warning was real. And it's happening before our eyes.
The Constitution won't crumble with a bang. It will be signed away, one executive order at a time.

I literally don’t know where I would be right now without independent journalist like yourself. It’s so painful to see these networks/media conglomerates turn their back on the truth and integrity … It’s left me with feeling like I’m screaming into a void. Thankful for your reporting to keep me updated in a meaningful way. I know you have got to be exhausted, because I don’t think you ever stop working; but know you are making a huge difference! (maybe even bigger than we are yet to realize) ☺️
Thank you for all that you continue to do to bring us INDEPENDENT JOURNALISM

Such truth! Thank you Aaron!
Orange47 is a BULLY. He will lose in the courts, at least until he taints those as well.
I am concerned that the courts cannot contain what is happening. Everything is happening so fast and being enabled all around
