PRESSURE SYSTEMS — LATEST EDITION
June 22, 2026
The Trump administration is repurposing federal agencies into tools of patronage and surveillance, evidenced by a multi-billion dollar DOJ settlement for political allies and the FBI’s attempts to recruit informants from within anti-ICE protest movements. These maneuvers signal a shift toward farcepolitik, where institutional mechanisms like the IRS and border enforcement apps are weaponized to reward loyalty while criminalizing opposition. This consolidation of unaccountable executive power marks the transition from traditional governance to a system of automated policing and financialized grievance.
