More proof this is entirely unnecessary & serves #Trump’s interests alone.
• Distract you from his many other #illegal activities, his ineffectuality geopolitically, & his tanking of the #economy.
• Finally achieving his long coveted goal of creating an #authoritarian #MilitaryState in which no one is allowed to criticize him or even say they don’t like him.

With each passing day, the #unitedstates sinks deeper in the #cesspool of an egregiously #corrupt #fascist #authoritarian #state. #Rights are mere illusions under #Trump.
According to Vox, Trump has asked #SCOTUS to disregard the Convention Against Torture.

The giant #Trump banner at the #USDA is another sign the US is sliding into #autocracy
It may be small & petty, but these changes are part of the erosion of democratic norms, softening people up for potentially more #authoritarian behavior.
