🔴 Breaking: DOJ Moves to Strip Gun Rights from Trans Americans
As we went live, news broke that Trump's Department of Justice is exploring ways to ban transgender people from owning firearms. This echoes Putin's early power consolidation tactics—testing authoritarian boundaries by targeting marginalized communities first. The irony of Second Amendment absolutists suddenly discovering exceptions to their ideology isn't lost. Today it's trans Americans; tomorrow it could be any group labeled "enemies from within."
⚠️ Florida Becomes Ground Zero for Public Health Collapse
Florida announced plans to eliminate all childhood vaccine mandates, with Surgeon General Ladapo calling basic public health protections "immoral" while aligning with RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine crusade. We're watching the deliberate dismantling of decades of medical progress that prevented polio, measles, and other deadly diseases from devastating American children. Meanwhile, RFK Jr.'s congressional testimony devolved into incoherent shouting matches—a man who doesn't even know basic COVID statistics now controls America's health infrastructure after purging every qualified expert.
💀 Trump Orders Assassination of 11 People at Sea
The administration incinerated a Venezuelan boat in international waters, killing 11 people they claimed were drug traffickers—without evidence, without warning, without legal justification. Defense officials are now scrambling to fabricate a legal basis for what Colombian President Petro accurately called murder. Even Russia, as Olga pointed out, at least prepares cover stories before committing war crimes. This administration shoots first and can't even coordinate their lies afterward.
🗳️ DOJ Attempts Seizure of 2020 Voting Machines
Trump's Justice Department tried seizing Dominion voting machines from Missouri counties that were used in 2020. County clerks courageously refused, citing state law and chain of custody rules. With Trump vowing to ban all voting machines and preparing executive orders to reshape elections, this is clear groundwork for claiming the 2026 midterms are "rigged" if Democrats gain seats. Steve Bannon already revealed their plan: armed agents at polling places to intimidate voters.
👨👩👧👦 Guatemalan Documents Expose Child Deportation Cruelty
A leaked Guatemalan government report shattered the administration's propaganda about "family reunification." Of 115 families whose children the U.S. tried to disappear last weekend, 59 explicitly wanted their children to remain in America. These families called the forced returns what they are: intimidation. A federal judge stopped the deportation plane on the tarmac, but the fact that masked agents were grabbing sleeping children for forced removal tells us everything about this regime's moral bankruptcy.
We're witnessing the systematic dismantling of democracy, public health, and human rights—each vector of attack carefully calibrated to test how far Americans will let authoritarianism advance. From manufactured narratives about child deportations to extrajudicial killings abroad, from election infrastructure seizures to the weaponization of public health, Day 15 shows a regime moving at breakneck speed toward tyranny.
