We don’t flood you with panic-inducing headlines or race to be first We focus on being useful to you — breaking down the news in ways that inform We rely on readers like you to fund our journalism Will you support our work and become a Vox Member today His administration is great at breaking things — but it’s failing in its bigger goal by Zack Beauchamp his administration has proven exceptionally good at breaking things The Department of Government Efficiency’s total demolition of USAID Kennedy Jr.’s depopulation of America’s public health agencies the total chaos at Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon — there is little doubt that the Trump team has accomplished policy vandalism at an unprecedented scale it can feel like Trump has been stunningly successful in achieving his aims But when it comes to perhaps his administration’s most ambitious task — removing checks on Trump’s power transforming democracy into something more like an authoritarian regime — the evidence suggests a surprisingly hopeful conclusion There is an established playbook for turning a democracy into an authoritarian state used in countries ranging from India to Hungary and he has sold it all to the public as evidence he’s getting things done Trump is facing effective and mounting pushback And he is losing support among the elite as his poll numbers plummet While their approach broadly resembled foreign authoritarians’ it was a poor copy at every level — a strategically unsound campaign with poorly thought-out tactics that were executed incompetently “We should thank [our] lucky stars that Trump chose to do this in the most stupid way possible,” says Lucan Way a political scientist at the University of Toronto who studies democratic backsliding None of this is to say that American democracy is safe Never before has a president been so committed to breaking the constitutional order and seizing power We do not know whether America’s democratic institutions will hold when the pressure has been mounting for years rather than months But the events of the first 100 days give us reason to hope To understand what Trump is attempting — and why it’s failing — it’s helpful to understand how Viktor Orbán successfully demolished democracy in Hungary. This is not only because Orbán is perhaps the most effective modern elected autocrat, but also because there is good reason to believe that the Trump team is self-consciously borrowing elements of his strategy Orbán did not immediately or openly claim dictatorial powers he made a blizzard of incremental moves — each one technical and confusing these policies might not have seemed like a big deal they added up to a quietly comprehensive assault on democratic institutions and civil society Orbán’s first and most impactful moves targeted the guts of democratic society forcing out unfriendly judges and replacing them with his cronies He attacked the free press’ economic foundations developing financial tools to force independent media to sell to government allies He began the process of stacking the electoral deck by gerrymandering Hungarian electoral districts through obscure legal tweaks and quiet abuses of regulatory powers that even sophisticated observers of Hungarian politics had trouble tracking Jennifer Victor, a political scientist at George Mason University, recently combed through a database of 2,714 different policies and initiatives from the second Trump administration — looking specifically for attacks on voting rights She found that two-thirds of the events fell into at least one of these categories with the rule of law and civil liberties the primary targets She found few attacks on free elections and almost no efforts to curtail voting rights is because of the way authoritarians sequence their attacks: typically going after the rule of law first to pave the way for other violations “Consolidating power by overpowering the other branches of government is a necessary step to corrupting elections and restricting civil liberties — in other words compromising the rule of law is the first step in creating a fully autocratic state,” she writes This is indeed how democracy died in Hungary: Orbán consolidated political power and then wielded it against more and more targets But the mere fact that Trump is trying something similar does not mean he is succeeding Trump has certainly had some successes. He has managed to destroy USAID, acting as if he had broad power to redirect congressionally appropriated funds in the process. He illegally sent Kilmar Abrego Garcia to El Salvador, and so far has refused to comply with court orders to bring him back But Hungary shows that the key question is not whether a would-be authoritarian wins specific fights it’s whether they can force widespread acquiescence to their policies Without courts routinely ruling in his favor Orbán would not have been able to get away with everything he did key alternative power centers are standing up and fighting According to data from the legal news site Lawfare, there are currently 255 lawsuits against various Trump administration policies; 108 of those cases have yielded temporary pauses or permanent orders ending Trump administration policies The Trump administration has only received favorable orders in about 30 The ideas and trends driving the conservative movement Each of these orders represented a significant curtailment of Trump’s assault on the rule of law the White House has complied with the rulings Trump has not engineered the kind of compliant judiciary that paved the way for Orbán’s rise The story is similar with the press. While he has certainly attempted to intimidate reporters into silence — by, for example, punishing the Associated Press when it refused to use the term “Gulf of America” — it’s clear from the headlines that most of the American press is not running scared Since Trump took office, there has been a constant stream of negative coverage — including the sort of exposés that are most likely to hurt his standing with the public Trump has not been able to scare the New York Times and Washington Post away from the sort of hard-hitting stories on the administration they publish daily And the same is true for other power centers in the business world and civil society it seemed like Trump might be winning Hungarian-style compliance including Silicon Valley’s biggest companies Columbia University and big law firms like Paul Weiss made major concessions to Trump amid pressure Orbán’s success at grabbing power depended on an ability to force or win compliance from democratic watchdogs and civil society Trump has tried to the same — and he has failed repeatedly Orbán-style authoritarianism cannot ignore public opinion: It depends crucially on enough people actually buying what they’re selling. In Hungary, that critical mass can be relatively small in number. Election rules are so stacked in their favor that Fidesz can win two-thirds majorities in parliament fairly easily even while alienating major segments of the population But Trump has not yet been able to do rig elections or win enough support from key institutions to pass laws that would do so His ability to maintain enough power to keep attacking democracy depends critically on public support Trump has seen mass discontent in the weeks following his “Liberation Day” tariff announcement The New York Times poll average shows that his support is weaker than every 21st-century president at this point in their presidency save one — Trump himself during his first term. Another poll average shows Trump, from the data journalist G. Elliott Morris, shows him performing even worse than at this point in 2017 one of the most respected in American politics suggested voters are reacting to a perception of overreach While they may have once looked at Trump’s blizzard of executive actions and seen a president getting things done they now see a president who is dangerously exceeding his powers to make changes they don’t want The tariffs have also played a central role in his collapsing support — among both business elites and the mass public Threatening to tank the economy does tend to produce a political backlash This damage can be seen as a kind of byproduct of Trump’s authoritarian vision Trump has a bizarre view of tariffs’ effects on the economy one that he could not fully implement in his first term he could indeed put this reality into power — following other elected autocrats like Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez and Turkey’s Recep Tayyip Erdogan whose idiosyncratic economic policies created major problems for their regime down the line Trump’s authoritarianism is sowing the seeds of its own failure Simply put: Trump is doing Orbánism all wrong Most Hungarians in 2010 wanted their country to be a democracy; recent polls suggest they still do Had Orbán simply announced an intent to go after the press’ financial independence or get rid of unfriendly judges he would have encountered mass opposition — not just from the public but also from Hungarian elites and the European Union the electoral system is so compromised that he may not have any real chance to unseat Orbán Trump’s weakness can be exploited — but that depends solely on American society’s commitment to doing so Trump has not displayed the patience or strategic acumen for such a subtle accumulation of power Instead of taking the time to quietly weaken the courts and systematically marginalize the press he bull-rushed ahead with flamboyant moves like stripping billions in research dollars from Ivy League schools and sending alleged criminals to a Salvadoran gulag He was acting as if he had already attained absolute power; that nothing the courts This big-picture strategic error — a version of putting the authoritarian cart before the horse — was compounded by poor tactical choices “A lot of the plans are rushed and poorly thought out,” says Robert Mickey a political scientist at Michigan who studies anti-democratic politics in America “Given that public opinion and the midterms have a big effect on at least short-term successes You can see this clearly in the way that his war on law firms and universities is increasingly going south threatening punishments produced compliance But then the Trump administration began making additional demands — threatening to reimpose sanctions if the targets did not submit and resistance appear a more reasonable option “The Trump administration is playing its hand very badly,” the political scientist Henry Farrell writes “If Trump had been more willing to accept defectors into his camp by sticking to deals that gave them something worth having he would be in a much stronger situation than he is at the moment.” There is also a problem of simple incompetence. Reportedly, Harvard’s leadership desperately wanted to make a deal with the Trump administration along the lines of Columbia’s concession. But then the Trump administration sent them a list of demands so extreme amounting to putting the university under direct federal control does that mean that everything will sort itself out but possible — that Trump could become more savvy as the term goes on He could correct some of his own most obvious errors by (for example) fully backing down on the tariffs There’s also a possibility that he makes a naked bid for power The failure of Trump’s assault on democracy is not inevitable of American society’s willingness to fight: its sense that resistance is not only feasible but necessary His weakness can be exploited — but that depends solely on American society’s commitment to doing so Understand the world with a daily explainer plus the most compelling stories of the day Auto workers supported tariffs to protect their jobs The most surprising consequence of Trump’s trade war Today, Explained podcastMay 4Love on the Spectrum stars call on RFK Jr. to resignTwo cast members of the hit Netflix reality TV show on what the HHS secretary misunderstands about autism The Gray AreaMay 3Did our politics fail us during Covid?Political scientist Frances Lee examines the “noble lies” and truth-seeking failures of the pandemic.

President & CEO Yehi Zichro Baruch - May Tom's memory be a blessing Writeup from the Washington Post (for Wash Post site click here): a philosopher and ethicist who helped codify boundaries on medical research involving human trials and sought to strengthen protocols on animal testing to recognize moral concerns such as pain and cognition The cause was complications from a pulmonary embolism Beauchamp pursued work that encompassed scholarship as a leading expert in the 18th-century Scottish philosopher David Hume and the rule-defining discipline of applied ethics Beauchamp (pronounced Beech-am) was called to put his studies — and his own views — into practice as part of a landmark treatise on American medical research that effectively set the framework for the modern field of bioethics lawyers and others in a special panel authorized by Congress in 1974 The group — known as the National Commission for the Protection of Human Subjects of Biomedical and Behavioral Research — was a cornerstone of legislative action prompted by disclosures of the Tuskegee Syphilis Study Public Health Service and other agencies had denied hundreds of impoverished Black men treatment for syphilis for decades to study the disease’s ravages on the body Beauchamp was brought in after the commission crafted a broad set of principles — “respect for persons justice and beneficence” — during meetings that included sessions at the Belmont Conference Center in Elkridge ‘And exactly what does the commission mean by these principles?’” Dr ‘I think they’re looking to you to tell them that.’” agencies and was widely considered one of the foundations for bioethics including guidelines for informed consent and the creation of independent committees to review research plans “That word [bioethics] had just barely come into use,” Dr Beauchamp recounted in a 2016 interview at Columbia University medical ethics was largely set by standards under the Declaration of Helsinki drafted in part as a repudiation of the abuses and deaths by Nazi doctors conducting experiments on Jewish prisoners and others Beauchamp “is a key figure in the foundation of the entire field of bioethics,” said Arthur Caplan a professor of bioethics at the New York University Grossman School of Medicine “No one else was as instrumental in creating the basic principles of American bioethics.” Beauchamp expanded on the Belmont Report in the book “Principles of Biomedical Ethics” (1979) co-written with philosopher and theologian James F in what was regarded as another seminal text in the field Beauchamp and Childress spelled out the ethical duties of physicians and other health-care workers with their patients With medical advances such as gene therapy Beauchamp became increasingly outspoken on the need for greater oversight as more research moved into private biotech companies “The highest levels of uncertainty often attend the most inventive and untested work,” Dr wrote in an essay in the Baltimore Sun in March 2000 “Some must bear these risks that science and society ultimately benefit … Practical import is that we owe those who assume risk of harm for our benefit a system of protections free of ‘serious deficiencies.’” He developed similar tenets around medical research using animals building on views about human morality toward animals by Australian philosopher Peter Singer in the 1970s such as “Principles of Animal Research Ethics” (2020) co-written with philosopher David DeGrazia sought to address the added ethical complications of conducting tests on creatures incapable of giving consent or articulating their concerns Beauchamp acknowledged that animal testing was sometimes crucial for studies on new drugs and other medical innovations he urged researchers to be mindful of pain thresholds for animals and recognize that primates and other species are aware of what they are experiencing He also encouraged more efforts to seek alternatives such as computer modeling or lab-grown cells there should be an upper limit to how much we can harm animals regardless of the benefits of the science,” Dr “No animal should be put in a position of experiencing severe suffering for a lengthy period of time.” Tom Lamar Beauchamp III was born in Austin on Dec His father was an insurance company executive he began religious studies as a source for social change — receiving a bachelor’s degree in theology and philosophy from Southern Methodist University in 1963 and a bachelor of divinity degree from Yale Divinity School in 1970 He also earned a doctorate in philosophy that same year from Johns Hopkins University I had a dilemma: go into religious studies or to go into philosophy And I chose to do something that was in between,” he said in the Columbia interview He joined the Georgetown faculty in the early 1970s and later took an added position as senior research scholar at the university’s Kennedy Institute of Ethics His works on Hume include “Hume and the Problem of Causation” (1981) co-written with philosophy scholar Alexander Rosenberg and he was co-editor of “The Critical Edition of the Works of David Hume” (1999) Beauchamp’s other books include “A History and Theory of Informed Consent,” (1986) co-written with Faden and “The Human Use of Animals” (1998) Among his honors was the Henry Knowles Beecher Award from the Hastings Center in Garrison Zack Beauchamp and Karine Fiore; and six grandchildren Beauchamp’s views on the use of animals in spaceflight research — a practice revived by the Soviet Union in the 1980s under an international program called Bion that used rhesus monkeys reptiles and other animals for medical tests in zero gravity Some of the animals did not survive the missions Beauchamp at NASA helped inform the space agency’s Sundowner Report in 1996 which set stricter standards for animal welfare in NASA studies by declaring that “vertebrate animals are sentient” and that minimizing pain and distress for animals was a “moral imperative.” winds up with something pretty good,” Dr CHAT (Communication Health, Advocacy & Therapy)310 South Main Street, Suite D, Lombard IL 60148Web:

of others he inspired former chair of the Section of Surgical Sciences at Vanderbilt University Medical Center making important cancer research discoveries throughout his career that advanced colorectal cancer treatment and laid critical groundwork for future investigations mentees and other members of the VUMC community gathered for a symposium in his honor highlighting research conducted by the Medical Center’s surgeon-scientists who served as chair of the section for 17 years collaborated with or advised as a physician who not only served his patients at the bedside but also pursued translational research to guide improved treatment for cancer patients As he viewed the more than 100 research posters displayed in the Langford Auditorium lobby highlighting a wealth of investigations during the event Professor of Surgery and chair of the Section of Surgical Sciences said Beauchamp’s legacy had been well honored by the symposium “I’m just overwhelmed with all the posters and all the enthusiasm,” Karp said I’m really happy that some of the other non-section departments also participated “Having this day for every level of people in our system — the medical students fellows and even the junior attendings — this is our DNA We want to encourage investigation to take care of not just the patient that we’re taking care of today but the patient we’re going to take care of tomorrow and the patient that everybody else is going to take care of tomorrow This is the pipeline you need to develop to do that.” Karp announced at the symposium that the Beauchamp Research Day now has an endowment in perpetuity due to the generosity of many of Beauchamp’s colleagues and friends in attendance and he was also impressed by the quality and depth of the research presented at the symposium He recalled when his lab and the lab of Hal Moses where Beauchamp worked as a fellow when he first came to VUMC they ate their lunchtime sandwiches together leaning against a hallway wall as they discussed their research there’d be two or three of these research posters — now He’d be the happiest man alive because of this.” professor of Surgery and Pharmacology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill She detailed research in identifying molecular subtypes of pancreatic cancer through genomic analysis of tumors By better defining pancreatic cancer subtypes and assessing their responsiveness to therapies so that the most effective treatments are chosen Pancreatic cancer is a lethal disease with a five-year survival rate of just 12.8% according to the National Cancer Institute it is the third leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States There are currently few therapeutic options Yeh discussed tumor and tumor microenvironment classifiers developed by her team and UNC collaborators to quickly identify tumor components and subtypes One classifier is now in use in clinical trials to identify the tumor subtype from a pancreatic biopsy to quickly select the best therapy “I hope I’ve shown that over time that you actually can bring things from the bedside to the bench and back to the bedside,” Yeh said “There are many directions that your research can go and we’ve been lucky enough that all of those different branch points have converged into an opportunity to bring our findings back to the clinic We’re always looking for new approaches and new ways to treat pancreatic cancer.” Yeh also discussed a novel iontophoretic drug delivery method that has demonstrated tumor regression in mouse models Iontophoretic drug delivery uses an electrical field to deliver drugs to their target One of the difficulties in treating pancreatic cancer is effectively and safely delivering targeted therapy to the tumor and this could prove to be an improvement over standard intravenous delivery Clinical trials of the iontophoretic drug delivery device are expected to begin in 2026 She acknowledged challenges in developing a commercially viable iontophoretic drug delivery device including the need for venture capital funding as work to improve treatment for pancreatic cancer continues was deeply evident at a recent symposium highlighting basic research conducted by numerous surgeons and physician-scientists all of whom were closely associated with the noted physician-scientist Section of Surgical Sciences
