Last Saturday, Donald Trump endorsed a post on Truth Social — his own social media network — by a user who was either calling for or predicting a "civil war" in response to "enemies within" the United States. Exactly a week earlier, an apparent white supremacist terrorist killed 10 Black people in Buffalo. His "manifesto" channels the same basic values and beliefs as the Trump and the contemporary Republican Party.
Even after that event, America's mainstream news media and other public voices, for the most part, still refuse to tell the unfiltered truth about the dangers to American society and freedom represented by Trump and the Republicans.
