Redoing 2020? – TPM – Talking Points Memo
Hello, the weekend. This weekly ☕️
There is a story about Trumpists about 2020.
The mass protests of that summer were an abducted opportunity; Trump, who was prevented from calling the army, was very kind. The left took it as an opportunity for rebellion. In Maga Cosmology, violent protesters burned cities; Biden continued by spreading a poisonous ideology bent to divide and humiliate the country.
A version of this story has now begun to explain why the White House sent troops to Los Angeles this week. Take a look at the following quotation from Axios attributed to an anonymous Trump confidant:
“What directs the president is how the 2020’s uprising suffered in the brain and how to send it to the troops to end it.”
Aside from totologies (Trump’s brain-cork causes driving, or does it cause driving brain-cork?), This can explain some of what is happening. True, it is true that George Floyd remembers the summer 2020 protests as a defeat. Scare people can help prevent future mass shows – the Black Lives substance can help avoid damage to the first period of protests. In 2025, it remained to activate the army and go to administration for years, and accustoms the country to the use of early armed forces as a way to respond to protests. People get used to things; The bar of the ugly grows further.
However, this accepts a lot for Spin: Stephen Miller and others, such as the White House officials are only in the position of responding to what they define as the excesses of the left. In this narrative, these people would not have imagined the idea of using the army to intimidate protesters if it were not for mass uprisings.
The truth is that this for a long time is on the Trump agenda. It is another direct way to use the clear force shown when it occurs most in a space. We can laugh at the marine pies called to “defend ına a calm federal building in the West, but it is a precedent that is a precedent because of the absence of any sedimentary incident outside the right -wing media. The result is not really about the so -called rebellions or 2020 bad memories; It takes this logic backwards.
They do this because they want to use the army against their enemies at home.

Here is what else in TPM’s tap this weekend:
- An update about Trump’s attempts to inject him into election management before the 2026 midterm exams so far.
- Extreme right Senate Republicans may be withdrawing their demands for spending more than expenditure deduction than those in the reconciliation package of the house.
- RFK JR. tries to explain the decision to change its policy of US policy on Covid vaccine proposals… Unpublished, controversial data.
Let’s dig.
Another federal judge prevents Trump’s attempt to take over
On Friday, a federal judge claimed that President Trump’s executive order took over the elections and said that the constitution did not give to the President of this power.
The decision comes in one of the similar cases that have returned to this order by democratic lawyers. A judge in DC had previously prevented the sections of the order: “The president has no constitutional power on the election regulation to support this unilateral authority application. The Constitution only supports power in the states and Congress.”
Trump is trying to add a documentary proof of citizenship requirement to federal voting forms and prevent states from counting the ballot papers that are late but marked before the election day. Even in a sympathetic judgment, Gambit will be a stretch; The presidents were largely celebrated from the election administration.

A new opening level
We report on a few poison pills that can force the Senate Republicans to change or interrupt some of the legislation, and probably change how destructive the bill of reconciliation can be. One of them was a call for more expenditure deduction from an extreme right member, including Sens Ron Johnson (R-WI) and Rick Scott (R-FL).
However New reporting Republican senators and the White House are now Sens. Johnson does not see Scott and Mike Lee as a threat to Megabill. As a reminder, the Senate Republicans can only lose three votes from their meetings and still cross the bill.
Johnson softened his tone after threatening to tank the invoice last month.
“We all want to see that President Trump was successful, Johns Johnson said, according to Politico this week. “Everyone is trying to help. So if I seem to be hitting a more hopeful tone, this is because I am more hopeful.”
Johnson’s change in tone, apparently tells him to talk to him more positively and proud to sell the public to President Donald Trump comes shortly after his speeches.
“The president said, ‘Ron, you stayed very negative, it is not just useful,’ I want to help, Pola said Polatıco,“ It has made the good one insignificant in the draft, ”he said.
The Senator’s 6 trillion-dollar expenditure interruptions did not take long after a big question-Trump had a conversation.

RFK JR uses Anti-Vax Disinfo to try to prove children, pregnant women do not need Covid vaccine
Secretary of the Ministry of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr., sent a letter to the deputies to explain. decision Removing COVID vaccine from the recommended vaccination program for healthy children and healthy pregnant women.
However, just like most of the conspiracy theories, reasoning was full of scientific studies that were not published or under dispute, and other works that were clearly characterized.
A specialist speaking with the NPR described the note as “deliberate medical disinformation ve and hit the HHS president because they provided such disinformation to MPs.
He is an Obstetric and Gynecology professor at Baylor College Medical College. Mark Turrentine said, orum I see that the congress members actually insult that they will give such a thing. The congress members are relying on Dr. Mark Turrentine, who is an obstetric and gynecology professor at Medical College, to give valid information to these agencies. According to NPR.
This is what you put an anti -vaccine lawyer responsible for the public health services of the country.
