If the US president threatens to take away freedoms, are we no longer free?

Donald Trump’s dramatic escalation in threats to deport or arrest citizens – from the world’s richest person to Democratic lawmakers – should be taken seriously, experts say

#UniversityOfToronto hires three prominent Yale #professors worried about Trump

#Fascism scholar #JasonStanley and #historians #TimothySnyder and #MarciShore have taken jobs at the University of Toronto amid concerns about the second #Trump administration

by Allison Smith, Mar 26, 2025

"U.S. President Donald Trump’s reelection has spurred several high-profile Yale #professors to leave New Haven for jobs at the University of Toronto.

"Bestselling author Timothy Snyder and historian Marci Shore are on leave from Yale and joined UofT earlier this year.

"Snyder and Shore, who are married, will begin teaching courses at the Munk School of Global Affairs & Public Policy this fall.

"Shore told TorontoToday they plan to stay at UofT 'for the long-term.'

"Snyder is the New York Times bestselling author of #OnTyranny and The Road to #Unfreedom, and an outspoken critic of the #Trump administration.

"UofT began recruiting her and Snyder two years ago, Shore said, 'and we were seriously considering the offers long before the November 2024 presidential elections.'

"'Both Toronto and the Munk School were and are very attractive places unto themselves, even bracketing the American descent into fascism,' she said in an email.

"'All that said, yes, of course our #AmericanCatastrophe played a role in our final decision.'"

Unfreedom at the Washington Post. How an editorial line fosters authoritarianism, by Timothy Snyder.
"Jeff Bezos: "We are going to be writing every day in support and defense of two pillars: personal liberties and free markets." The use of these terms in this way demeans the concept of freedom and pushes the country in the direction of tyranny."
