The rank corruption of this administration is absolutely gobsmacking. Accepting a $400 million private jet from Qatar? What are the national security concerns? What is Qatar getting in return? Trump is a crook, and this is the most corrupt administration in American history.

If Congress valued the Constitution, it would impeach Trump for bribery. The Constitution bans US officials—explicitly including POTUS—from accepting things of value from foreign govts. Ben Franklin famously gave up a gift from France as ambassador. US institutions now see blatant bribery as ok.

Why do both Americans and political scientists see American democracy on the decline? Because we elected a man with no appreciation for our history or ideals who ran on a platform of remaking the country. Gift link: wapo.st/44piphI

I keep seeing Canadians asking why Americans aren’t taking Trump’s threats seriously, and the answer is not really Trump related, in my opinion. I think it’s because Americans have an intense historical amnesia to international happenings that has been deeply cultivated in our society.

They had lawyers, trials, most were given pretrial release, allowed to testify in their own defense, got discovery, could call witnesses, could cross-examine witnesses, could present mitigation at sentencing, and had a right to appeal.

I signed this letter because I’ve lived it. Chris Krebs & Miles Taylor are friends & former colleagues who chose country over politics—truth over fear. Now Trump is targeting them for it. This is authoritarian retribution—plain & simple. Over 200 of us are speaking out. Please read & share.

Can confirm that my NSF grant "How False Beliefs Form & How to Correct Them" was cancelled today because it is "not in alignment with current NSF priorities" Shocking that understanding how people are misled by false information is now a forbidden topic.

Just finished reading "Patriot" the other day, the posthumously published memoir of Aleksei Navalny, the opposition leader killed in Putin's prison. Such a powerful account in the long tradition of gulag literature and a reminder of what Putin's Russia has become. Worth reading.

Being snatched off the street for your opinions. I'll say it again. We are deciding, right now, whether the aspirations we hold for this country are finished.

It’s worth stating this simply: For literally anyone in the US Govt from 1945 to 2025, Signalgate would require an instant resignation—and a criminal investigation. It would be a matter of personal honor to resign. The fact Mike Waltz & Pete Hegseth are choosing to fight it out is a terrible omen.
