As voters turn against the administration, Trump is openly working to rig the 2026 election to guarantee Republicans win.

Heather Cox Richardson: Politics Chat, February 3, 2026
If Republicans lose the 2026 election bigly, the Democrats will launch investigations into the most corrupt president and criminal administration in USA history. Trump is also worried about the Epstein Files. Most USAmericans spend 4 minutes per week on politics. If you believe in democracy, you need to stand up and say, We don’t want ICE, etc. Being visible on this stuff matters. It does matter if you show up for a march. Make sure you are registered to vote. Stay engaged.

Heather Cox Richardson: 1 February 2026
On February 1, 2026, as we mark the fiftieth anniversary of the first Black History Month, government officials under the administration of Donald J. Trump have just removed an exhibit on enslavement from Independence National Historical Park in Philadelphia. The exhibit acknowledged nine people enslaved at the President’s House Site when President George Washington lived there. Curators intended the exhibit to examine “the paradox between slavery and freedom in the founding of the nation,” but it conflicted with Trump’s March 2025 order that national historic sites should “focus on the greatness of the achievements and progress of the American people.” In his order, Trump called out Independence National Historical Park for promoting “corrosive ideology,” teaching visitors that “America is purportedly racist.”
The administration is openly working to replace American multiculturalism with white nationalism, launching raids by federal agents to terrorize Brown and Black Americans as well as white Americans who reject MAGA ideology.

Heather Cox Richardson: 31 January 2026
[V]oters flipped a district that Trump won in 2024 by 17 points to Rehmet, electing him by a 14.4-point margin. After removing the minor-party candidates in the vote, the swing from the Republican in 2024 was 32 points toward the Democrats. In Texas.

Heather Cox Richardson: 30 January 2026
As the American people continue to express their fury over the violence of federal agents in Minneapolis and elsewhere, officials from the Trump administration today tried to shift the public narrative to shore up their softening base and silence their opponents.

Paul Krugman: “American Democracy Will Not Die in Darkness. Which means that it might — might — survive”
So it’s just being realistic to say that MAGA will try, somehow, to prevent voters from having their say. Will ICE try to prevent blue districts from voting? If that fails, will they reject the results, in a midterm version of Jan. 6? Call me alarmist, but remember: The alarmists have been right, and the people telling us to calm down have been wrong, every step of the way.

Paul Krugman: “Talking with Chad Brown About Trump, Tariffs and More” (31 January 2026)
We built a system that was very much in our image.
We’re a litigious society where lawyers rule almost everything. And we built a world system where there are all these lawyers. And now, for the time being, it’s all just whatever the president tweets. Business hates that.

Paul Krugman: “A Bad Heir Day at the Fed: No, Kevin Warsh isn’t qualified.” (30 January 2026)
It’s a humiliating day for the Federal Reserve, which has always prided itself on its professionalism and has been hugely respected around the world. But even the Fed can’t insulate itself from the derangement sweeping America.
