"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...

Presumably Trump will respond by raising tariffs on China again from 145% (I think. I've kind of lost track.) to something even more ludicrous. No doubt his friends already have the short trades lined up. bsky.app/profile/kyle...

Slotkin is often talked about as the future of the Democratic Party. I really hope not, because she seems extremely xenophobic. Strong Blue MAGA vibes. bsky.app/profile/slot...
