The article by Thom Hartmann expresses profound concern over the state of American democracy under the influence of Trump and the GOP, arguing that the U.S. is sliding toward authoritarianism. It describes how federal institutions, including the Justice Department and FBI, have transformed into tools for power consolidation and repression, rather than serving the public. The piece cites specific actions, such as political arrests and manipulation of narratives to justify federal crackdowns, as indicative of a broader trend toward fascism. Hartmann calls for active resistance, urging citizens to organize and confront the erosion of democracy rather than wait for institutional help. He emphasizes the urgency of the situation, likening it to historical fascist movements and the responsibility of Americans to fight against these undemocratic forces.
