Week 96 — The Return
This week, as we passed Labor Day and head into the final stretch before midterms, Trump and his regime were frantically trying to find ways to impact voting. The regime filed two emergency applications with the Supreme Court, and ginned up involvement of federal agencies, including continual attempts to prove Trump’s baseless claims of widespread voter fraud, and efforts to have a presence at polling places on Election Day.

Week 95 — The Return
This was one of the longest lists of broken norms during Trump’s second regime, despite it being late August, with Congress still out of session. I encourage you all to read through the list in its entirety, because there are so many important, shocking, and disturbing subplots all at once — the U.S. is at great risk both internally and externally.
After another senior military departure, the U.S. Army finds itself without a single Senate-confirmed civilian or military leader, at a time when the country is stuck in an endless war with Iran. Reporting indicates a mix of poor planning and mismanagement has left the U.S. homeland and our forces abroad at risk, with munition stockpiles low. Trump continued his strange bromance with Russia, even as Russia directly aided Iran, and Russian President Vladimir Putin openly encouraged other countries to challenge the U.S. — it is simply inexplicable.

Week 94 — The Return
This week Trump continued his inexplicable targeting of what were formerly some of the strongest U.S. allies, while coddling and cozying up to former adversaries. In what the WSJ Editorial Board dubbed “the dumbest trade war,” Trump escalated tensions with Canada, including threats to rename Lake Ontario to Lake America, while Vice President JD Vance mused that “Canada is a state.” Unlike during his first regime and earlier in his second, now countries are pushing back against his antics rather than being bullied into submission.
