🚨 Trump’s America, 2025: The Fascism Is No Longer Creeping — It’s Here.
18 Signs We’re Living Under an Authoritarian Regime. This Is Not a Drill.
By NIKA | CEO | Entrepreneur. Rebel With A Cause Proud Loudmouth.
Let’s stop pretending. We are not “headed toward” fascism.
We are in it — right now. This is Trump’s second term, and we are watching the country unravel in real time.
You can feel it in your gut. You can see it in every headline. You can hear it in the silence from media giants who’ve been bought, bullied, or buried.
If you think this is politics as usual, you’re not paying attention. This is the American authoritarian playbook, page by page, being executed live.
Here are the 18 undeniable signs we’re already living inside Trump’s regime — not hypothetically. Right. Now.
🔻 1. Journalists Are Being Fired for Telling the Truth
Terry Moran? Gone.
Jim Acosta? Blacklisted.
Stephen Colbert? Silenced.
Trump has made it clear: Criticize me, and you’re done.
And the networks? They’re complying. Fear sells. Silence protects stock prices. Fascism wins.
🔻 2. The Press Is Being Sued into Submission
Trump’s suing CBS, The Wall Street Journal, and 60 Minutes, claiming “defamation” for any coverage he doesn’t like.
He doesn’t care about winning — the lawsuits send a message: Report on me, and I’ll bankrupt you.
Welcome to state-sponsored censorship — Trump-style.
🔻 3. Elections Don’t Mean Anything Anymore
Trump never conceded 2020. He’s still claiming he won in 2020. And in 2024, he made damn sure he wouldn’t lose again — by rigging state legislatures, intimidating election workers, and installing MAGA loyalists in key certification roles.
Now, it’s not about who votes. It’s about who counts.
🔻 4. Peaceful Protest = Criminal Behavior
Demonstrators are being arrested for holding signs near federal buildings.
ICE is being used against protesters under “public disorder” pretexts.
Trump’s DOJ is building an enemies list — and we all know how that ends.
🔻 5. He’s Militarizing Deportation
Over 11 million undocumented people are now under threat as Trump executes his promise to carry out military-led mass deportations.
Families are being torn apart again — this time with no intention of reuniting them.
This is ethnic cleansing through bureaucracy and brute force.
🔻 6. The Courts Are Being Intimidated
Trump doxxes judges.
He attacks jurors.
He threatens prosecutors with revenge.
In his words: “If you come for me, I come for you.”
This is how justice dies — not with a bang, but with a Trump post.
🔻 7. “Enemies of the State” Are Anyone Who Disagrees
Whistleblowers are being prosecuted.
Government workers fired under “Schedule F” — replaced by MAGA loyalists.
This is a purge of the professional civil service.
🔻 8. LGBTQ+ Americans Are Under Direct Attack
The Trump administration has banned federal support for LGBTQ+ programs.
Books pulled. Clinics closed.
He’s pushing national bans on gender-affirming care and trans participation in public life.
This isn’t policy. It’s persecution
🔻 9. Science Is Being Gutted
He’s defunded NIH.
Cut climate research.
Reversed pandemic preparedness protocols.
Trump doesn’t believe in facts. He believes in control.
🔻 10. Women’s Rights? Dismantled.
Roe is gone — and Trump is backing a national abortion ban, enforced through DOJ power.
Women are being criminalized for miscarriages, for crossing state lines, for having a body.
🔻 11. He’s Praising Dictators and Attacking Allies
Putin? “Strong leader.”
Xi? “Brilliant.”
But Germany, Canada, France? “Weak,” “pathetic,” “leftist losers.”
Trump is actively destroying global alliances and replacing them with handshakes from strongmen.
🔻 12. He’s Rewriting History in Real Time
According to Trump’s “Patriotic Education” initiative, schools can no longer teach:
America’s history of slavery
Systemic racism
Trump’s impeachments
January 6th
They’re replacing truth with propaganda.
🔻 13. He’s Turning the Military Into His Personal Force
He’s said the quiet part out loud: “Next time, they won’t stop me.”
Now he’s using National Guard deployments as political theater, and promoting generals who pledge loyalty to him, not the Constitution.
🔻 14. The DOJ Has Been Hijacked
Trump’s DOJ is going after his enemies — from prosecutors to political rivals.
Meanwhile, allies like Bannon, Flynn, and Stone get pardons and plush gigs.
Justice isn’t blind. It’s wearing a red hat now.
🔻 15. Protesters Are Being Tracked
Digital surveillance laws expanded.
Activists monitored.
Face recognition deployed at rallies.
Trump’s DHS is now a domestic intelligence agency — with a MAGA mission.
🔻 16. He’s Promising “Day One Dictatorship”
That’s not a paraphrase. That’s his exact wording on national TV.
And people cheered.
If you think he’s joking, you haven’t been paying attention.
🔻 17. The Media Isn’t Just Compliant — It’s Complicit
ABC. CBS. CNN. NBC.
All of them have bent to the pressure.
Because when a network faces $20M lawsuits and FCC threats, it folds.
They’ve turned from watchdogs to lapdogs.
🔻 18. The People Are Afraid to Speak — And That’s the Point
People whisper now.
They hesitate before reposting.
They wonder if their job is safe if they speak out.
That’s how fascism works — not just through control, but through fear of the consequences of being free.
🚨 THIS IS NOT EXAGGERATION. THIS IS AMERICA IN 2025.
You don’t need a dystopian novel. You just need to look around.
If we don’t call it what it is — fascism — we’re complicit.
If we stay silent, we’re already conquered.
✊ So What Now?
Speak.
Share.
Name the fascism.
Refuse to comply with fear.
Because Trump may control the White House…
But he does not control your voice.
Firing Journalists. Suing the Press. Silencing Comedians.
This isn’t a warning. It’s a reality. And it’s 100% Trump’s America.
If you’re waiting for fascism to arrive with jackboots and flags — you’re missing it.
It’s already here.
And Donald J. Trump brought it.
This is what fascism looks like in 2025:
ABC fires Terry Moran for calling out Trump advisor Stephen Miller — the same guy who designed family separation and ICE terror raids.
CNN pushed out Jim Acosta, one of the last journalists who dared to challenge Trump live.
CBS pays Trump $16 million to settle a lawsuit over a “60 Minutes” interview — then cancels Stephen Colbert for mocking it.
FOX News lies about the election, pays $787.5 million, and Trump still praises them.
And now Trump is suing CBS, WSJ, and anyone who won’t bow to his fantasy world.
This is not politics.
This is textbook fascism — complete with media suppression, manufactured enemies, and corporate obedience.
🔥 The Trump Playbook: Silencing America
Let’s break it down:
1.
Terry Moran – Gone
ABC cut ties after he called Stephen Miller what millions of us know him to be: a white nationalist. The official line? “Violated objectivity.” The real reason? Trump’s grip.
2.
Jim Acosta – Silenced
In 2018, Trump had his press pass revoked. CNN sued. They won. But eventually, Acosta was pushed out anyway. Challenge Trump too hard — and your days are numbered.
3.
CBS & Colbert – Bought and Buried
CBS paid Trump $16 million to make a lawsuit disappear. Then axed Colbert after he joked about it.
A late-night legend — taken out by corporate cowardice.
Why? Because Trump’s team reportedly threatened to “open up” FCC scrutiny if CBS didn’t play ball.
This isn’t “cancel culture.”
This is state-influenced censorship.
💣 FOX News? They Paid the Price — But Trump’s Still in Control
Fox aired knowingly false claims about Dominion Voting Systems.
The result: $787.5 million settlement — one of the largest in history.
And still, Trump treats them as his propaganda arm.
No apology. No reform. Just business as usual.
Because when fascists lie, they never need to say sorry. They just double down.
📂 Now Trump’s Suing the Free Press
Trump is now suing:
CBS over “60 Minutes”
Wall Street Journal for reporting a story involving Epstein
Rolling Stone, Vanity Fair, and others are next
Social platforms are bracing for legal fights if they don’t censor on his terms
Trump doesn’t need a government censorship board —
He uses litigation as a weapon.
He’s weaponizing the legal system to punish facts and erase criticism.
⚖️ The Fascism Formula:
🧠 It’s Not Just the Media — It’s the Message
What Trump is building isn’t a movement. It’s a cult of power, enforced through:
Legal intimidation
Media buyouts
FCC pressure
Billion-dollar hush money
Fear-based compliance
He doesn’t want journalism.
He wants obedience.
🎙️ And Don’t Say You Weren’t Warned
This is how fascism always rises:
Not with tanks.
But with settlements, lawsuits, and silence.
If you don’t speak out now — you’ll wake up one day and realize you’re living in a country where truth is illegal.
🚫 CENSORSHIP = FASCISM
When Corporations Censor for Power, That’s Not “Business as Usual.” That’s Authoritarianism.
Let’s say it plain: This is no longer about media bias.
This is corporate-enabled fascism.
ABC fired Terry Moran for calling Stephen Miller what he is: a white nationalist and policy architect of modern ethnic cleansing.
CNN sidelined Jim Acosta, the only reporter with the spine to challenge Trump to his face.
CBS just paid Trump $16 million to settle a lawsuit over “60 Minutes”… then canceled Stephen Colbert for joking about it.
FOX News paid $787.5 million to Dominion for knowingly lying about election fraud — and kept right on lying.
Let that sink in.
This isn’t theory.
This isn’t projection.
We are there.
🔥 This Is How Fascism Creeps In:
Fascism doesn’t always arrive waving a Nazi flag or marching through the streets.
Sometimes, it’s:
✅ Billion-dollar settlements
✅ Silent firings
✅ Network rebranding
✅ Journalists muzzled by “legal strategy”
✅ Comedy shows shut down
✅ Truth repackaged as “defamation”
This is censorship with a smile — delivered by lawyers and corporate risk officers too scared to lose access, ratings, or stockholders.
The First Amendment doesn’t mean anything if corporate media caves to power.
📺 Colbert Gone. Moran Gone. Acosta Gone. Why?
Because they said what needed to be said.
They told the truth — and in this new media age, truth is now a liability.
And Donald Trump knows it. He’s suing:
CBS
WSJ
Vanity Fair
The New Yorker
Any journalist who still dares to ask questions
He doesn’t need the government to censor the press. He uses threats, lawsuits, and billion-dollar leverage — and the result is the same:
🔇 Silence.
🧠 Here’s What People Don’t Want to Admit:
This isn’t just “bad behavior” by Trump.
It’s systemic fascism.
Fascism =
✔️ Corporate collusion
✔️ Fear-driven censorship
✔️ Manufactured outrage
✔️ Weaponized lawsuits
✔️ A media culture too scared to fight back
“When you silence the press, you silence the people.
When you fire comedians, you kill truth with a laugh.”

🧱 So What Do We Do?
Name it. Don’t be afraid to call it fascism. That’s what it is.
Support real journalism. Substack. Independent media. Whistleblowers.
Stop being polite. Outrage is not just valid — it’s necessary.
Share this post. If they can silence ABC, CNN, CBS, and FOX, they can silence you.
Organize. Vote. Speak. Fight. Every voice matters.
🧨 Because silence is the goal. And if you’re silent, they’ve already won.
Welcome to America in 2025.
🚨 Final Word:
Trump doesn’t need to rewrite the Constitution.
He just needs to scare every network CEO, every editor, every anchor, and every comedian into silence.
And guess what? He already has.
“This is not a drill. This is fascism. And it wears a red tie, not a swastika.”

REBEL, REVOLT, RESIST
— NIKA
One could say even itemized descriptions are restrained. Fear not and don't walk near that vortex. Their warped reich/RIGHT will collapse from its own wrongness.
Soon enough they will target liberal individuals access to financial transferring services such as Venmo, as well as access to social media…we won’t be able to communicate or support, then we’ll be separated, disenfranchised and silenced.
