"It seems worth asking whether America250 will celebrate the ideals of the country’s founders—or those of the monarch they rebelled against," writes @dfriedman.bsky.social and @noturtlesoup17.bsky.social in @motherjones.com.
I'm quoted in this in-depth story about how Trump uses history to support his authoritarian agenda and to go after his enemies. As I put it, the "enemies that matter [to Trump] are in the present: us, history professors, journalists." tinyurl.com/32n7948b

But as we report in the new piece, Trump has seized full control of the anniversary planning by creating a new public-private org, "Freedom 250," which is now organizing all the high-profile events the president wants to hold this year, nominally to mark the 250th, but really to celebrate himself.
