Well done timeline for the end of the 250yo democratic Republic experiment. This ongoing coup was tolerated by the cowardly Biden DOJ/FBI/AG from its beginning on Jan 6, 2021. Tramp and Co. should have been arrested and held for trial on charges of "seditious conspiracy" and "insurrection" on Jan. 6 and Jan. 21, not allowed to run home and carry on an "alternative" federal government from Merry-lag-Oh. As the folk song goes: "It's all over now, Mary Jane." ONLY God can help us now, as climate collapse extinguishes all life on the planet. USA RIP. Have a blessed day.
Jaw dropping. I'm thinking that the drafters of Project 2025 had to have worked 24/7 for the last 4 years to create the detailed, step by step plan that is unfolding daily. I'm past believing that protests and civil disobedience will restore democracy to America. It's going to take a coup d'état by the people. The planning needs to start now. Retired military brass need to lead the coup. They will still have the loyalty of the troops. It's either that or never have another fair 'election' again.
Orwell envisioned something like a nuclear war to bring about the world of 1984! Apparently, it's not needed! …while the democrats are rearranging deck chairs! … and seriously, Chuck Schumer …. not the guy for the moment… HELP!
That is the most depressing list I have ever read. Trump holds all cards in the mission to overthrow the government and install himself as acting king. I anticipate one or more murder attempts in the coming months from people who can’t wait for “Congress to act.”
A couple of things that caught my interest. First, included in the list are the little speed bumps that slowed the rush to dictatorship. Court action and examples of some resistance.
Second, the democrats were mentioned once: several of them confronted a locked door at the department of education and were stopped by a single guy who wouldn't even talk to them or identify himself. I wouldn't even call that a speed bump slowing the loss of democracy. It is a example of the effectiveness of the democratic party right now.
Here's an idea. As many progressives in congress as really want to stop the madness should consult with their constituents and then take over the Green Party. Even half of the progressive wing of the currently ineffectual and emasculated democratic party could overwhelm the Green party and take it over. They should then immediately make sure the Green Party is on the ballot in all of their states. They should declare themselves members of the Green Party and start working to get their voters to register Green.
Once that is completed, or at least once it is underway, that group of progressive lawmakers should meet with the so-called leadership of the democratic party. They would point out that the democratic party won't win another election if it doesn't accept them as part of a political coalition. (Here's the big secret for anyone concerned that some bad republicans might win future elections over some good democrats - the "good" dems aren't going to win those elections anyway with the current structure of the democratic party, and the current structure of the democratic party isn't showing any signs of changing anytime soon).
People need to consider environmental issues, labor issues, economic fairness, and frame the threats to our national security and the immediate destruction of our democracy in those terms. The current democratic party doesn't have any issues. The current democratic party is mostly acting in ways that give even more air time to Trump.
A separate party would be able to change the focus of the conversation. And I'll bet that progressives/Greens fighting against the current government takeover would be received by the people in this country much better than the same old and tired compromisers who wouldn't take a stand on supplying weapons to Israel while seeking corporate money to support their egotistical lifestyles.
And I'll bet they would appear as speed bumps and more as this post progresses through the coming year as they organize and protest and make some real noise.
Someone please please included in their reporting that federal employees have a constitutional right to their job as that authority flows directly from the President that comes from the constitution. So there is no authority to fire this many people at once for arbitrary reasons.
This post absolutely freaked me out. It's not a nightmare.....it is real.
Excellent work, as usual. This is such important info. Any way to share it publicly?
Please copy the link to this page (or use the share button) and share as far and wide as possible. Thanks
Thank you, Zeteo, for creating this. It’s truly a staggering amount of stuff to keep up with.

Hoping you get laid today.
Good work.

I really appreciate this!
Has anyone done a day by day comparison of what Biden did his first few weeks compared to Trump?
My memory of that time was that he immediately put into place orders to help alleviate the COVID pandemic.
That's what a flooded zone means. We can't remember most of them, much less act on them.
Missing from the list is that on Feb 7 the National Institutes of Health drastically cut the financial support of biomedical research at universities and non-profit institutes. https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-25-068.html
Yes, first salvo fired at higher ed, important to include. Thank you.

Great summary of Trump/Musk actions. Sad there isn’t a longer list of Democrats in opposition.

No, he is mostly holding Tarot Cards--interpreting them the way he wants to.

Thank you for keeping my head spinning! We need a tax revolt. How can we get one off the ground?
Trump and Elon have had a busy week! The world is watching the US implode and suck everyone else in as it does!
