Quick Glance: The Parallels Between Ancient Rome and Modern U.S. Politics
- Special prosecutors’ investigations of Joe Biden and Donald Trump do not mark the first time political tensions spilled into the justice system.
- Resembling Caesar’s time, conflicts between populist politicians and the conservative establishment could lead America towards autocracy.
- The Romanization of the American political landscape could result in a transition to authoritarianism, where sharp differences are settled through autocracy.
- While the Roman Republic serves as a worrying precedent, the U.S. military's reluctance to support dictatorships offers hope for democracy.

Trump's latest 2024 campaign fundraising report shows him lagging behind Biden in cash
apnews.com/article/trump-campaign-fundraising-numbers-f365b31b5c82e4134c103a436d032c26
Quick Glance: Trump Trails Biden in Fundraising Amid Legal Bill Challenges
- President Biden's campaign maintains a significant financial edge over Donald Trump, who faces the challenges of fundraising for his potential return to office and settling his increasing legal bills seven months before the general election.
- Federal Election Commission reports revealed Biden's clear financial advantage over Trump, with Biden having $71 million in cash on hand compared to Trump's $33.5 million - more than double his rival's reserves.
- The reports highlight how Trump's legal issues are straining his campaign. Save America, the PAC used by the Trump campaign to cover legal expenses, spent more than it raised in February, with the majority of funds going towards legal costs.
- While trailing Trump in early polls, Biden's campaign and allied groups are surpassing Trump's fundraising efforts and the cash amassed for the general election.

Quick Glance: ANC Supports Duma, Blames Buthelezi After Royal Microphone Incident
- The KwaZulu-Natal government rallied around Economic and Tourism Minister Siboniso Duma and ANC Chair, apologizing for stopping Zulu traditional Prime Minister Thulasizwe Buthelezi from speaking in front of King MisuZulu ka Zwelithini.
- Duma received support from the cabinet and the ANC in the province for his intervention to prevent Buthelezi from criticizing the ANC at a government event honoring King DinuZulu ka Cetshwayo.
- Buthelezi's actions were seen as an attempt to embarrass the king and the provincial government, leading to fears of renewed tensions in the province, known for past political violence and recent targeted killings of political figures.
- The incident has raised concerns about potential unrest in the region, with calls for accountability from all parties involved in the controversial royal microphone incident.

rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/trump-migrants-not-people-animals-1234989117/
Quick Glance: Trump Defends 'Bloodbath' Comment and Claims Critics, Media Misinterpreted
- Former President Donald Trump accused the media and Democrats of misconstruing his warning of a 'bloodbath' if he loses the election to President Joe Biden - emphasizing he was speaking about the fate of the auto industry, rather than threatening political violence, as his political adversaries and some pundits have suggested.
- Trump wrote on Truth Social Monday that 'the Fake News Media, and their Democrat Partners in the destruction of our Nation . . . fully understood' he was referencing the auto industry when he told a crowd in Dayton, Ohio, over the weekend: 'if I don't get elected it's going to be a bloodbath for the whole—that's gonna be the least of it.' But some went further, with Biden's re-election campaign calling Trump 'a loser who . . . doubles down on his threats of political violence' in a statement in response to Trump's use of the word.
- Trump expanded on his statements on Truth Social Monday, alleging that 'imports allowed by Crooked Joe Biden' are 'killing the automobile industry' while targeting the president's push for more electric vehicle manufacturing in an appeal to auto workers concerned about job loss from the transition to EVs.
- Former Vice President Mike Pence, who said last week he would not endorse Trump's 2024 bid, defended Trump's 'bloodbath' comments in a CBS interview on Sunday, stating that 'the president was clearly talking about the impact of imports devastating the American automotive industry.'
