The US as an Authoritarian State: Danger to the Global Rule of Law

“Checks & balances among the three US branches of government are in tatters… It is unclear whether the #US legal system can withstand the Trump administration’s increasingly brazen threats against #judges & #lawyers.” | SLaw: Canada’s Online Legal Magazine slaw.ca/2025/03/25/the-us-as-a #Trump #internationallaw #humanrights #ruleoflaw #DEI #immigration #law #lawfedi /1

Slaw · The US as an Authoritarian State: Danger to the Global Rule of Law - SlawDonald J. Trump’s second term as President of the United States has stunned the world. Commentators increasingly say the US has now crossed the Rubicon into authoritarian territory.

At this point, the only way this admin could announce more clearly that their agenda is #Whitenationalist if not #Whitesupremacist is to simply stand at a podium and say, "We only like able-bodied, straight, White cis men." I mean, they have literally argued over and over that said group are the oppressed rather than the oppressors. It's what they're arguing legally in all the pending #DEI cases.

Stanford University said it found a noose hanging from a tree outside of a residence hall and is investigating the incident as a hate crime. In an email to students and staff, university officials said campus safety authorities immediately "removed the noose and retained it as evidence," after receiving a report late Sunday, May 8, 2022, that a noose was seen outside an undergraduate dormitory.

Nearly everyone, if they live long enough, will have a #disability in some point in their lives.

Sara Nović: The US right is coming for disabled people. Here’s why that threatens everyone: Trump’s administration is dismantling disability rights & education. History has shown this can be a warning sign for all civil liberties:‘Historically, the way a government treats disabled people can be an early indicator of its broader social policy intentions.’

The US threatens to stop funding a Barcelona library over its diversity policies.

The Trump administration anti-diversity policies have reached a library in Barcelona that hosts cultural exchanges with the US.

The mayor, Jaume Collboni, says the city won't end the American Space program: ‘We will not take a single step back in promoting equal opportunities. This order has no legal standing or democratic legitimacy’.

@AnarchoNinaAnalyzes The Trump/Thiel regime is not only cutting fundings to USA"s universities, it also bully other nations universities and research institutions. Although not related to Palestine, here is just one example >

"The anti-diversity policies of the new American government of Donald Trump have impacted the Ignasi Iglésias Library in Can Fabra. As reported by El País and El Periódico and confirmed by ACN, the city council has received a request from the United States embassy in Madrid demanding the application of the Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity order to the facility, which is developing the inclusive American Space Barcelona project, a cultural exchange between the city and the United States, a country that partially finances it. The council has already responded that it will not comply with the restriction and adds that the order is not valid outside the United States."—Línia Sant Andreu [translation]
