Trump’s systematic destruction of American institutions
Inside the insatiable appetite to feed his own ego.
Trump announced the closure of the Kennedy Center for the next two years, framing it as a “revitalization,” but the real story is one of erasure. From ripping out Jackie’s rose garden to plastering his name on one of America’s most iconic cultural institutions, this is about replacing a shared national legacy with a hollow monument to one man’s ego. JFK’s grandson, Jack Schlossberg, responded with a powerful message about what it means to fight back.
Meanwhile, Trump gave a bizarre phone interview to Politico where he repeatedly referred to himself in the third person and made a rare admission about his own mortality. The United Nations is warning it may shut down its New York headquarters because the U.S. owes roughly $2.2 billion. And ICE agents are now leaving behind “death cards” on the vehicles of people they detain. Cards with a history rooted in white supremacist intimidation.

I’ll now be sharing video versions of my nightly posts in addition to the written ones. We are living through a pivotal moment for our country, and my goal is to reach as many people as possible with clear, factual information about what is happening. The more people who understand what is unfolding, the better chance we have to push back against chaos, cruelty, and corruption ahead of the midterms.
Thank you for your continued support. Your paid subscriptions have enabled me to add a video editor and get the message out to more people.
Independent journalism is under attack. You can make a difference with a $5/month paid subscription. Your support allows me to keep telling the truth about the lies and destruction unfolding in our country, defend myself from constant pressure from MAGA extremists, and ultimately spread the message to more people.
I’m fighting to save our country (before it’s too late).
I’ll see you tomorrow,
Heather
