The law protects street vendors’ personal data by barring local jurisdictions from inquiring about their immigration status or requiring fingerprinting when applying for local permits.

Americans have wondered several times over the course of President Donald Trump's term how the 25th Amendment could be used to transfer his powers.

In a stark warning, Dr. Jason Stanley says America is entering a dangerous period with President Trump’s growing rhetoric against the so-called “radical left” and “domestic terrorists.” “I think we are facing the moment in which a coup is happening,” Stanley warns. “This is the moment,” he says, and adds that what’s needed now is full-scale, nonviolent resistance.

Authoritarianism doesn’t begin with tanks in the streets– it often begins with a story. We break down a dangerous new disinformation campaign from the White House designed to turn “radical left violence” from a talking point into a political weapon. Donald Trump is using a manufactured narrative of crime to justify sweeping power grabs, including deploying the National Guard to Democratic-led cities, threatening to invoke the Insurrection Act, and labeling critics, including journalists and Democratic mayors, as enemies. It’s a tactic straight from the authoritarian playbook, now being weaponized to dismantle civil infrastructure.

America is built upon the principle of federalism, a form of government in which power is balanced and responsibilities are shared between the states and the federal government. The Trump administration, however, is increasingly undermining it by using the levers of the federal government to impose its ideology upon the states. “These efforts to try to insinuate federal control in areas where it’s not supposed to be operating is sort of breaking down this really important barrier that we have against a truly authoritarian government,” Vox Senior Correspondent Zack Beauchamp tells Ali Velshi.

President Trump escalates his calls to deploy National Guard troops to Portland, which he calls “war ravaged” and “under siege.” Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield is fighting to stop him, calling his threats “un-American” and “a very dangerous precedent.” Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof, who grew up in Oregon and was just in Portland, says Trump’s characterization of the city is “absurd,” and protesters there are determined “to mock” the president.

While Paul Thomas Anderson's film is being heralded as a masterpiece by many, some conservatives accuse it of potentially inspiring left-wing violence.
