Steven Cash warns Trump’s proposed January 6 "settlement" resembles the kind of state-funded loyalty network or private militia support system often seen under rising authoritarian regimes overseas.
Two court moves in 24 hours put a spotlight on a dangerous pattern. Steven Cash discusses Trump’s DOJ trying to erase January 6 convictions and Judge Williams reopening the closed Trump-IRS case behind a massive taxpayer-funded settlement. youtu.be/6VWV0qwmb4Y?...

Lawyers, Guns & Money: Look at this and Rhodes dismissal case together: a coordinated effort to create a billion-dollar funding stream outside appropriations and oversight rewarding and sustain networks personally loyal to Trump, including those same organizations. zurl.co/puc1q
Blurring the line between public office and private enrichment until the state becomes a family business.
In 1976, the Bicentennial felt like a national moment. In 2026, the Semiquincentennial is already being pulled into the gravity well of one man’s ego.

86? Began my career as a prosecutor in the NY County DA's Officer (think Law & Order), serving in both the Trial and Racket units. I have never heard the term "86" used by criminals to mean kill. I do know it is a restaurant term. I don't think it appears in any mob movies/TV shows.
Do you follow me? Well, I have a better idea: bsky.app/profile/thes...

1/ “Blasting Iran into oblivion” and “back to the Stone Ages” is an open threat to bomb civilians (a war crime). Trump appears to be making this decision without a congressional declaration, even as he refuses to call this a “war,” though his language here makes clear that’s exactly what it is.
