[This article was originally posted to ThreeWayFight.org on March 20, 2026.] by Matthew N Lyons Fourteen months into Donald Trump’s second presidential administration, the political situation in the United States of America looks both more horrifying and more hopeful than it did, say, last summer. Since returning to the White House, Trump has pursued a drive toward dictatorship with a speed, scope, and effectiveness arguably beyond anything in U.S. history.

For some fifty years, Chip was a dedicated opponent of both far right politics and state repression.

In 1987, Chip Berlet and Jean Hardisty cofounded Political Research Associates, which quickly became one of the best sources of information and analysis on...

But it also points to a crisis of strategic direction for the US ruling class. The Heritage Foundation, arguably the most important think tank in Trump’s orbit, is losing about fifteen staffers, including the heads of its legal, economic, and data analysis divisions, all of whom are moving over to a much smaller think tank founded by Mike Pence in 2021, called Advancing American...
