Classic authoritarian move. Along with suppressing a free press, which is also on their agenda.

Republicans Want to Reshape the Courts to Propel Trump’s Agenda — Even If It Could Cost Them
What Happened: GOP lawmakers are pushing legislation to limit federal district courts’ ability to issue nationwide injunctions. Bills introduced by Rep. Darrell Issa and supported by Sen. Chuck Grassley would restrict injunctions to apply only to parties involved in the lawsuit.

Why It Matters: This is an attack on the courts—the last line of defense against authoritarianism. This would weaken judicial oversight and undermine checks on Trump’s executive authority.

FCC Chair Threatens ABC’s Broadcast License Over Disney DEI Practices

What Happened: FCC Chair Brendan Carr announced an investigation into Disney’s hiring practices, warning that ABC’s broadcast license could be at risk. Carr said evidence suggests Disney and ABC may have violated FCC equal employment opportunity rules by basing employment decisions on race and gender under their DEI policies.

Why It Matters: Trump is weaponizing federal agencies to silence media. Threatening to strip ABC’s license over “DEI” is an attack on the free press—and an authoritarian move.
