Series Journey to American Democracy
![The hard lessons ot history seem to be repeating themselves In the U.S. these days, and with the nation’s 250th anniversary approaching, friends and I got to talking about how we could make our real history more accessible...we have come up with Journey to American Democracy: a series of short videos about American history that we will release on my YouTube channel, Facebook, & Instagram. They will be either short explainers about something in the news or about an important event or issue in American history.
Journey to American Democracy explores how democracy always required blood & sweat & inspiration to overcome the efforts of those who would deny equality to their neighbors. It examines how, for more than two centuries, ordinary people have worked to make the principles the founders articulated in the Declaration of Independence the law of the land.
In late April, interview, Moran..calling attention to the Declaration. …asked Trump what the document [Declaration of Independence] meant to him.T: “Well, it means exactly what it says, it's a declaration. A declaration of unity and love and respect, and it means a lot. And it's something very special to our country.”
The Declaration of Independence is indeed very special..But it is not a declaration of love and unity. It is the radical declaration of Americans that human beings have the right to throw off a king in order to govern themselves. That story is here, in the first video series of Journey to American Democracy.](https://media.mstdn.social/media_attachments/files/114/648/245/985/233/227/original/855b2eafdd2ab898.jpeg "The hard lessons ot history seem to be repeating themselves In the U.S. these days, and with the nation’s 250th anniversary approaching, friends and I got to talking about how we could make our real history more accessible...we have come up with Journey to American Democracy: a series of short videos about American history that we will release on my YouTube channel, Facebook, & Instagram.

Also can’t help but wonder if he thought the Attack on Pearl Harbor was part of D Day given his gross ignorance. If he did, he got that off by a day June 6th.

Creation of a Police State
Meanwhile, government raids against immigrants are escalating and seem designed to provoke conflict. Today, masked officials in tactical gear, apparently from the Department of Homeland Security, carried out a number of raids in Los Angeles. Agents pepper sprayed and arrested David Huerta, the president of the Service Employees International Union California (SEIU).
In a statement, the union called for “an end to the cruel, destructive, and indiscriminate ICE raids that are tearing apart our communities, disrupting our economy, and hurting all working people,” adding: “Immigrant workers are essential to our society: feeding our nation, caring for our elders, cleaning our workplaces, and building our homes.”
Andy Craig, who studies election law and policy, noted today that “Im]ass deportation and immigration enforcement in the interior requires a police state, and the more of that you want, the more obviously it will look and act like a police state.”
Aaron Reichlin-Melnick of the American Immigration Council agreed. He wrote: “In order to build a mass deportation machine to round up and deport 4% of the entire goddamn population, you must first build the police state.”](https://media.mstdn.social/media_attachments/files/114/642/521/365/157/016/original/197cb58bd4a17955.jpeg "Heather Cox Richardson 5/6/25
