Of Course The Founding Fathers Would Have Hated Trump Current Affairs

Of Course The Founding Fathers Would Have Hated TrumpThey rejected kings and were sincerely concerned about the possibility of a dictatorship. But we need to move past founder-worship and focus on justice.
By Nathan J. Robinson, filed 04 July 2025 in History
by is marked An AI image, free to useOn July 4th, we can say one thing for sure about the Founding Fathers: they would have fucking hated Donald Trump. Trump may have revived the 18th century practice of capitalizing letters seemingly at random (the Declaration of Independence says He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, while Trump posts things like Iowa voted for me THREE TIMES, because they love my Policies for our Wonderful Farmers and Small Businesses). But the founders were thoughtful about executive power. They detested monarchy. They had long philosophical debates over exactly how the government should keep from turning into a tyranny. Trump, meanwhile, flagrantly violates the Constitution in both and foreign affairs.
Of course, we should approach the founding generation with deep skepticism. For one thing, we know that most of them were morally blind on the most important issue of their day, slavery. Thomas Jefferson kept people enslaved while knowing full well that it was wrong, and ignored the pleas of ex-slave Benjamin Banneker, to beg him to live up to the principles of the Declaration of Independence. The majority of Americans (women, Black people, Native Americans) were excluded from participating in democracy at the founding of the country, which .
Nevertheless, its striking just how far the current presidents view of executive power departs from the original vision of the framers, the men that the American right ostensibly worships and whose original vision they say they want to emulate. Take borders, for instance. Trump recently proudly presided over the opening of a brutal new swamp prison for immigrants. Trump was amused at the prospect that if they tried to escape, the immigrants would be . Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt that Alligator Alcatraz was isolated and surrounded by dangerous wildlife and unforgiving terrain. Thousands of people will be there even in the punishing Florida heat, part of Trumps effort to fulfill his plan to kick millions of people out of the country who have done nothing except work difficult jobs in construction and agriculture.

Its a sad day for journalism, Rather told Variety. Its a sad day for 60 Minutes and CBS News. I hope people will read the details of this and understand what it was. It was distortion by the President and a kneeling down and saying, yes, sir, by billionaire corporate owners.

An advanced civilization must not limit its efforts to science and technology alone, but must give full value and support to the other great branches of scholarly and cultural activity in order to achieve a better understanding of the past, a better analysis of the present, and a better view of the future.Democracy demands wisdom and vision in its citizens. It must therefore foster and support a form of education, and access to the arts and the humanities, designed to make people of all backgrounds and wherever located masters of their technology and not its unthinking servants.

He would say something like but gravity isnt political, and Benjamin Franklin was born in 1706 thats fact, not interpretation. And I would say, yes, gravity itself the physical force isnt political, but how we come to research and understand and then harness it absolutely is political, distributed by human relationships and negotiations of power. And while Benjamin Franklin was indeed born, that we choose to frame the event as such reflects our priorities we could instead note that Abiah Folger Franklin labored long in a period of high maternal mortality to deliver the eighth of her 10 children, whom she named Benjamin. These were the kinds of conversations we had, my dad and I, scientist to humanist, secure in the parameters of a world committed to knowledge.
My father, an early and computer scientist, passed away more than two years ago. Since then Ive been trying to make sense of how rapidly the world that helped make him, and in turn the one he helped shape, is unraveling. Like many Americans of my generation, I have parents who lived their lives in the wake of World War II and all that the wars end meant for the United States what we convinced ourselves we were committed to at home and around the world. An academic, entrepreneur, public servant, and leader, my dad believed as deeply in America as he did in science and in the inexhaustible value of higher education and scientific research for the nation. Child of an immigrant father, he invested wholly in what he was certain made the US great: the historic partnerships among academic, government, and industry institutions that were part of a post-war commitment to expanding opportunity, and to keeping the US at the economic and innovation pinnacle. This sense of national interest and national purpose was just as deeply rooted in an ideal of global collaboration.1
These broad commitments and the structures to underpin them were blown forward from the mid- into the late twentieth century by gale force political winds. As a historian, I loved talking with my dad about that context, and how those winds might change. Now that they have, grieving his death feels inextricably tangled with grieving the catastrophe now overtaking the world he believed in.
From articleThis is a more personal post than most over the last 10 years Ive loved writing here, and learning from and with The Scholarly Kitchen (TSK) and SSP community. It has felt important to speak and write about the humanities for a scholarly communications industry dominated by the needs and interests of STEM research and publication, and its been a privilege to share ideas about the biggest issues that influence scholarship across disciplines. Its not an accident that the conversations I had with my dad about how and why the STEM-ified nexus of US academia, research, and policy looks the way it does echoed alarms Ive raised in TSK pieces over the years. These include questions about industry specifics like monolithic Open Access and the citation metrics game about the landscapes of social media and legacy media and perhaps further afield a failure of attribution culture in historical fiction that nonetheless felt to me like a perfect exemplar of taking humanities knowledge infrastructure for granted.

Freedom Caucus attacks Senate megabill in 3-page dissection
The document circulated Wednesday as GOP leaders sought the hard-liners support.
By Meredith Lee Hill, 07/02/2025, 12:51pm ET
The House Freedom Caucus is circulating a memo sharply criticizing the Senate-passed GOP megabill as Republican leaders work to secure hard-liners votes Wednesday.
The three-page document seizes on more than a dozen modifications to the bill made after it passed the House in May. Some, but not all, were due to Senate budget rules requiring the elimination of some provisions to sidestep a Democratic filibuster.
One issue that cannot be entirely attributed to decisions made by the Senate parliamentarian include the revised bills outsized deficit impact: The bill violates the House framework of $1 of tax cuts for $1 of spending cuts (with 2.6% economic growth), increases the deficit by $761 billion without interest and more $1.3 trillion with interest after changes were made in base text and a wrap-around amendment was adopted, the memo says. This was not what Leader John Thune and Speaker Mike Johnson promised.
The House could be in for another all-nighter
House GOP leadership is optimistic theyll get the holdouts to flip in the coming hours. But once a deal is reached, it could take several more hours to complete the process of sending the bill to President Donald Trumps desk.
Members will have to take a vote on the rule setting up floor consideration of the bill, which provides for one hour of debate. But that could go considerably longer: Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is expected to give an extended magic minute speech which would not be deducted from the official debate time.

This is a tremendous worry since Donald Trump has the other two no-equal branches of the federal government firmly under his thumb. Legislative branch Republicans, WE HAVE BEEN TOLD, are afraid of Trump. The John Roberts court either is not a real Supreme Court or it is by far the worst Supreme Court in living memory - those are the only two choices. We have got big trouble.
