- An off-hand summary of what Trump’s done in his first week, apparently working to install an authoritarian police state in America;
- How those who think the president should solve egg prices don’t understand capitalism, and Vance admits grocery prices aren’t coming down soon;
- How Trump’s definitions of male and female are nonsense, and useless;
- How Trump’s war on the “deep state” means dismantling the government that has kept our society running, for a century;

Apparently Trump – or the Project 2025 architect – was smart enough to understand that by opening his presidency with a volley of executive orders, some substantial and some silly, no one would be able to keep up, and a lot of them would slip through without notice. Just for future reference, let me see if I can compile what has happened this past week, mostly off the top of my head, without links. Then some links.
- Trump freed 1500 criminals, those convicted of various crimes during the insurrection against the Capitol on Jan 6, 2021. Even those who assaulted police. Police groups have complained. Even some Republicans are horrified. The irony: Trump is always complaining that other countries are ‘sending’ us their criminals and refugees from mental asylums as immigrants, while in fact it’s now Trump who is loosening criminals, many quite violent, on the American population.
