    Trump scrambles in the hopes of delaying his Jan. 6 civil cases

    Broadly speaking, Donald Trump’s legal troubles can be broken up into two categories: the former president’s criminal cases and his civil cases.

  • Trump's vow to release the Jan. 6 insurrectionists should terrify everyone

    Dictatorships tend to consolidate their power very quickly. So quickly, in fact, that a population may not fully comprehend the magnitude of what has happened to their society. This “shock and awe” is employed to underscore—as immediately as possible—the dictator’s power and to intimidate opposition by convincing people to believe that opposition is futile.  In the United States, Donald Trump has freely acknowledged his intent to become a dictator on “Day One” if he is reelected.
