The sheriff Bull O’Connor’s wolf dogs; the massacres of protesters at Kent State in 1970 and Orangeburg in 1968. The attacks on Lincoln, John and Robert Kennedy, Malcolm X, and Martin Luther King Jr. The tragic deaths of Renèe Good and Alex Pretti. The dark side of American politics—repression, the use of force, social hatred—returns ominously in the days of ICE in Minneapolis. The use of force against citizens, weapons, and the radicalisation of language from President Trump’s White House are tearing public opinion apart and worrying Europeans. The Atlantic speaks of “US fascism”. Trump beats a retreat, ditching the hardliner Bovino and calling for an honest investigation into Renèe and Alex. How will the 2026 midterm elections go, caught between the Trumpist activist base, undecided voters, and those who fear an authoritarian drift?
