"Get out Trump" - Canadian Anti-Trump Song

Feb 24, 2025 | "Get Out, Trump" is a Canadian protest song set to the melody of Bella Ciao, the iconic Italian anti-fascist anthem. The lyrics express strong opposition to Donald Trump’s influence, condemning his tariffs on Canadian goods and his suggestion that Canada could become the “51st state.” With the repeated chorus “Get out, Trump! Get out, Trump! Get out now, now, now!”, the song defiantly asserts Canada’s independence, justice, and resistance to authoritarianism. It serves as both a political statement and a rallying cry, emphasizing that Canada will stand strong and free against any external threats.

The Trump Administration Is Descending into Authoritarianism

THE OBSERVER: From media to culture and the arts to the refusal to abide by court orders, we’re nearing ‘Defcon 1 for our democracy’, experts say

Entering the magnificent great hall of the US Department of Justice, Donald Trump stopped for a moment to admire his portrait, then took to a specially constructed stage where two art deco statues, depicting the Spirit of Justice and Majesty of Justice, had been carefully concealed behind a blue velvet curtain.

The president, who since last year is also a convicted criminal, proceeded to air grievances, utter a profanity and accuse the news media of doing “totally illegal” things, without offering evidence. “I just hope you can all watch for it,” he told justice department employees, “but it’s totally illegal.”

Trump’s breach of the justice department’s traditional independence last week was neither shocking nor surprising. His speech quickly faded from the fast and furious news cycle. But future historians may regard it as a milestone on a road leading the world’s oldest continuous democracy to a once unthinkable destination.

Eviscerating the federal government and subjugating Congress; defying court orders and delegitimising judges; deporting immigrants and arresting protesters without due process; chilling free speech at universities and cultural institutions; cowing news outlets with divide-and-rule. Add a rightwing media ecosystem manufacturing consent and obeyance in advance, along with a weak and divided opposition offering feeble resistance. Join all the dots, critics say, and America is sleepwalking into authoritarianism. » | David Smith | Saturday, March 22, 2025

Donald Trump’s Imperial Presidency Is a Throwback to a Greedier, Pernicious Age

THE OBSERVER – OPINION: His attempts to bully and exploit the weak hark back to an era when the US emulated the worst aspects of the British empire

Donald Trump’s imperial presidency is a tawdry, threadbare affair. The emperor has no clothes to cloak his counterfeit rule. Lacking crown and robes, he resorts to vulgar ties and baseball caps. His throne is but a bully pulpit, his palace a pokey, whitewashed house, his courtiers mere common hacks. His royal edicts – executive orders – are judicially contested. And while he rages like Lear, his critics are publicly crucified or thrown to the lions at Fox News.

Yet for all his crudely plebeian ordinariness, a parvenu imperialism is Trump’s global offer, his trademark deal and most heinous crime. He peddles it against the tide of history and all human experience, as if invasion, genocide, racial inequality, economic exploitation and cultural conquest had never been tried before. If it wasn’t clear already, it is now. He wants to rule the world.

Trump’s menacing claims to Canada, Panama and Greenland revive the elitist fantasies of Elon Musk’s grandfather and Technocracy Inc, a 1930s rightwing populist movement that sought to unite North and Central America under US suzerainty – the “Technate”. The mindset feeding such pretensions is rooted deep in the national psyche. It’s a mix of Monroe doctrine, “manifest destiny” and the white man’s burden. It’s evil, it’s pernicious, and it’s back. » | Simon Tisdall | Saturday, March 22, 2025

Trump Threatens to Send Tesla Protesters to ‘Slave Prison’ In El Salvador

Mar 22, 2025 | On Friday morning, Donald Trump sent out a post on Truth Social where he threatened to send anyone who vandalizes a Tesla vehicle to what has been called a "slave prison" in El Salvador. Sending Americans overseas to serve prison terms is certainly prohibited under the Constitution, but that doesn't matter at all to Trump. All he wants to do is make sure that people who are mean to his benefactor as punished as harshly as possible, as Farron Cousins explains.

Democracy Now! "Grand Theft Government": Federal Workers Send SOS over Musk's DOGE, Mass Firings & Service Cuts

Feb 20, 2025 | Amid the indiscriminate dismantling of the federal government by the Trump administration's Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency, federal workers, thousands of whom could lose their jobs, are fighting back. "All of us do something not only essential, but also mandated by Congress," says union organizer and Army Corps of Engineers employee Chris Dols. Dols is part of a growing movement of federal workers and their allies staging mass protests to "Save Our Services" and warning of the long-term consequences of these extreme cuts to the bureaucracy. "They're trying to immiserate the working class, and they're doing it through the federal workforce," says Dols, who is also a national coordinator with the Federal Unionists Network. "It's about gutting the services that create a safety net in this country, because the more miserable we are, the easier it is for them to exploit us." He calls on the larger public to join the worker-led movement resisting these radical cuts. "The whole public sphere is at stake."

It seems pretty clear to me that Trump, Musk and henchmen are making a bloody mess of the American economy. This is all going to end in tears for so, so many people. The only ones who will be laughing are those that will profit handsomely from this, and they will be laughing all the way to the bank! America is in the process of being gutted and ruined. These people should be in jail, not allowed to be free to vandalise the economy like this, and ruin people’s lives. – © Mark Alexander
