“Whatever you say at the beginning will sound alarmist but likely prove inadequate in the end” -Stuart Stevens in “Conspiracy to End America” Dear Lincoln Loyal, It’s not an exaggeration. It’s a blueprint. As 2026 approaches, Donald Trump and his allies are actively building the conditions for a crisis no one thought possible here: a Trump-led move to seize control of our democracy. This isn’t about politics as usual. It’s about the deliberate dismantling of the two essential pillars that protect our republic: the independence of our military and the integrity of our elections. 1. Silencing the Military’s Voice of LawInside the Pentagon, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is systematically tearing out the legal guardrails that have kept the U.S. military accountable to the Constitution, not a single politician, for generations.
2. Rigging the Rules of Our ElectionsAt the Department of Homeland Security, Trump has installed election-denial activists in key roles. Reports from The New York Times confirm that these allies are planning how the president could declare a national emergency in 2026 to “federalize” elections—wresting control away from state officials who actually run them. Voting-rights groups call this exactly what it is: “a federal strategy to control elections and rig our democracy.” This is not reform; it is a power grab disguised as one. The Crisis is Now
This is how democracies slide: slowly, legally, one rationalization at a time. The guardrails are replaced. The rules are rewritten. By the time the public fully wakes up, the mechanisms to stop it will be gone. Lincoln Square Media exists to say it out loud right now, before it’s too late.
