Is there a comprehensive plan to both highlight the danger of authoritarianism AND articulate an alternate vision of the future? The right wing had a plan - Project 2025 - and used it as a framework for getting elected. What kind of future will people vote for? What does the majority care about? It doesn't seem that fighting against the oligarchy and kleptocrats is enough.

The ICC (International Criminal Court) can designate chump and his cabinet as a terrorist organization and can charge him and his cabinet for crimes against humanity, as well as war crimes for what he has done to UKRAINE and GAZA, LET ALONE HOW HE HAS TREATED IMMIGRANT DETAINEES

We ALL need to contact them demanding they be charged as a terrorist organization and Warrants issued for their arrest.

"The Hague court" typically refers to either the International Court of Justice (ICJ), the principal judicial organ of the United Nations, or the International Criminal Court (ICC), which prosecutes individuals for genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity

I just happily became a paid subscriber to LincolnSquare. But what happened to Reed Galen? Sometimes with you folks, people disappear without explanation and that's not a good look.

Here's an idea for your consideration. I think that it's extremely important to start a conversation with the public, to illustrate just how this authoritarian administration is permeating State and Local governments. Fact: state of Floriduh legislature now has bill infront of them to: override local and county government decisions regarding development. Our state government knows Nothing about the small towns throughout this state. Our elected officials only see how they can ursurp the existing laws, to find a profit for themselves.

Trumps boldness has given red state governors, think DeSantis, the mindset that he can do whatever he wants and pass laws that take away even more individual freedoms. What his gop majority want to do is nothing short of paralysis Floridians so they have no voice in local matters.

The tricked down from this unlawful administrations is already having devastating effect locally.

Your voice COUNTS!

A National Call to Action: Unite to Defend Democracy and Stop the Rise of American Authoritarianism

Fellow Americans,

The United States is under siege—not from a foreign adversary, but from within. The rise of Trumpism and the radical authoritarian movement behind him threatens to dismantle our democratic institutions, erase our fundamental rights, and place unchecked power into the hands of a corrupt oligarchy.

This is no longer about partisan politics—it is about the survival of democracy itself.

We must act. Now.

This is a movement for all who believe in truth, justice, and the American ideal of government by the people, for the people. We must engage locally and nationally, leveraging every available tool to resist the rise of authoritarian rule.
