Скачать или смотреть This New Trump Plan Will Scare You w/ Miles Taylor

Miles Taylor, former Department of Homeland Security chief of staff and author of the anonymous op-ed critical of Donald Trump during his first term. Taylor reflects on the erosion of institutional resistance within the Trump administration, expressing concern over what a second term might look like without legal and moral guardrails. He discusses Trump’s pattern of authoritarian behavior, including misuse of federal powers for personal and political retribution, the symbolic and literal transformations of democratic spaces, and the chilling effect of fear-driven compliance across major institutions. Taylor draws parallels to early Putin-era Russia, warning that Trump’s revenge-driven agenda is quietly transforming American governance, diminishing civic courage, and warping public and private institutions. The conversation underscores the urgent need for early and collective resistance across civil society to safeguard democratic norms before they are irreversibly undermined.
