It's funny how the sinister features on this phone from North Korea are pretty much the same as Microsoft Recall, but with less frequent screenshots.

Commuting and pardoning political allies and supporters is a sign of #authoritarian and #despotic rulers. Why should any individual be allowed to commute or pardon people, who have been convicted in a proper trial? #democracy #authorianism #despotism
There is not even an attempt to conceal the motivation: ""This is far worse than what George Santos did, and at least Santos had the Courage, Conviction, and Intelligence to ALWAYS VOTE REPUBLICAN!" Trump wrote."

"Control is the goal, amassing power in the hands of the president and removing or neutering any institution or person that could stand in his way. That is the guiding logic that explains Trump’s every action, large and small, including his wars on the media, the courts, the universities and the civil servants of the federal government."
Step back and take it in: the US is entering full authoritarian mode

#NationalGuard troops on #DC streets for #Trump’s #crackdown will start carrying guns
President Donald Trump on Thursday visited law enforcement and National Guard troops in Washington Thursday evening, praising them for their role in his crime crackdown and saying he’ll seek congressional funding for his DC intervention and beautification plans.
By KONSTANTIN TOROPIN, MATT BROWN and CHRIS MEGERIAN
Updated 5:21 PM EDT, August 22, 2025WASHINGTON (AP) — "Defense Secretary #PeteHegseth has ordered National Guard troops to start carrying firearms while patrolling the streets of Washington for President Donald Trump’s law enforcement crackdown, the Pentagon said Friday.
"The Defense Department didn’t offer any other details about the new development or why it was needed. Hegseth referred to it as 'common sense' on social media.
"No troops have been spotted yet with firearms around the city in the hours after the announcement. But the decision is an escalation in the Republican administration’s intervention in the nation’s capital and comes as nearly 2,000 National Guard members have been stationed in the heavily Democratic city.
"Some local officials were harshly critical, with D.C. Councilmember Charles Allen saying Trump’s actions are 'not of a president, but of someone on the march to an #authoritarian #takeover.'
"Trump initially called up 800 members of the District of Columbia National Guard to assist federal law enforcement in his bid to crack down on crime, homelessness and illegal immigration. Since then, six Republican-led states have sent troops to the city, growing the military presence."

"Plans are already in place to construct detention camps at military bases around the country to house hundreds of thousands of people detained by ICE. To pretend this won’t actually happen on U.S. soil is to deny history itself."

"Trump has pardoned the ultra-violent January 6th rioters (if you want to call anything a riot or an attack on police, start there), has routinely threatened violence against his rivals, his enemies, and the press, has turned the federal government into his own personal vendetta machine, and arguably is making his second term a revenge tour against America for rejecting him in 2020."

To those who want to cluck tongues at the ostensible "violence" of anti-ICE protestors, Rebecca Solnit has this to say:
"The Trump Administration is a huge surge of almost every kind of violence: Trump is an adjudicated rapist who put a man in charge of the military who himself paid a settlement to a woman who charged him, credibly, with rape;"
