Thou shalt focus on the current president's throbbing insanity and dementia. The previous president is no longer president and so it no longer matters.

This is the weaponization of government—full stop. If you speak out against them—or in this case do your job—they will come for you. What we’re seeing with @replamonica.bsky.social is a political stunt, and we won’t stand for it.

Our Prime Minister, Mark Carney 🇨🇦 has the rare ability of explaining issues with clarity and in a way that everyone can understand. He answers questions respectfully and does not spin answers, like we've become accustomed to in the past. What a welcome change. #cdnpoli

To be effective, our opposition to today's abuses must run alongside a clear picture of what we are actually for - and how everyday life could be better with different leadership.

🇩🇪 Merz: "My first trip as Chancellor is today to our two largest neighbors: 🇫🇷France and 🇵🇱Poland. Germany is once again taking responsibility. Not loudly, but reliably. Not arrogantly, but in a spirit of partnership."

Imagine if when we invaded Iraq, three years in we only took a sliver of the country at the cost of 800,000 men. Would the conventional wisdom be that we are winning? No? Then why do some think Russia is?

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

“We are all afraid,” Senator Lisa Murkowski said. “It’s quite a statement. But we are in a time and a place where I certainly have not been here before. I’ll tell you, I’m oftentimes very anxious myself about using my voice, because retaliation is real. And that’s not right.”

Built my first 3d wooden puzzle and I love it so much. There's something about the sound of a music box that's just so charming and comforting

The fall of an empire is supposed to be a dramatic thing. But the reality is far less exciting. It happens in the text of legislation nobody bothered reading, in local elections nobody followed, in a thousand tiny disasters that amounted to a thousand little cuts on the body politic.

This is a very important point. Breathlessly vague headlines and summaries of these executive orders created for the executive powers it does not have. This kind of press contributed to authoritarian regime change.
