"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...

Chasten and I are relieved that Governor Shapiro and his family are safe. While we wait to learn more, this much is clear: the targeting of a public official and his family - especially a prominent Jewish official on a major Jewish holiday - is unconscionable and has no place in our country.

It's been a rough week for the NOAA family, including feds, contractors, and scientists across this country / world. I need to say something very important. It is my motivation to get you the weather, water and climate data you need, regardless of what has, or will happen to us.

How bad is it out here for writers? From the WGA: According to Guild data, approximately 37% fewer WGA-covered episodic TV series aired in the 2023-24 season, and the season’s series had 1,319 fewer writer jobs than the prior season. The decline in the number of jobs impacted writers at all levels.

Dr Peter Marks, "Vaccines have been studied very extensively for being potentially associated with autism" "That theory has been debunked" "One study in Denmark, over 600,000 children. It shows that if anything, children had a lower rate of autism than unvaccinated children"

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie). Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

Once again, I called my reps with @5calls.org re: The SAVE act, you should too: 5calls.org Call them even if they're Republicans. ESPECIALLY if they're Republicans. Let 'em know you're pissed!

trump’s lawless reign is a dumpster fire, and Dems are too polite to fight back effectively. Blame him for EVERYTHING! My latest FREE Substack is a must-read rant for every liberal! brooklyndaddefiant.substack.com/p/wake-up-de...

The President of the United States engaged in insider trading, and laughed about it. He is not exempt from the law. Where the fuck is Congress?

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to own, buy, and sell individual stocks. We need to ban congressional stock trading—and I've got a bill for that.

After massive public backlash, the Social Security Administration is rolling back its disastrous cuts to phone services. This is a huge victory for the public against DOGE's rampage. Keep up the fight.

Ya know, if it were proven that what happened today truly was planned, it sure seems to me like "risking global economic calamity for the betterment of a few billionaires" certainly meets the high crimes threshold.

An actual opposition party would be all over TV for the next 10 days reminding people of this tariff bullshit, letting people know that Congress has the power to end this, and getting to work on doing just that. Instead all that exists is the Democratic party so none of this will happen.

do I have this right? Donald Trump is just going to crash the world economy every three months — and then pretend to save it, over and over, while his cronies rake in untold billions on his shameless market manipulation, is that it? fucking hell

Sometimes, when he fails badly enough, Trump can be forced to do the thing he says he never does: back down. Today is just one more turn on the roller coaster - but it is more evidence of why we can't give up or let up.

When I was a librarian our local gov threatened to cut our funding over a very stupid reason an the way we got out of that was just HOW many people showed up to town halls to shout about it. They just got exhausted of having to deal with people. That lesson holds today -- show up for your library!

1) Do something autocratic 2) Wait to see how people react 3) If they don't push back hard enough, carry on 4) If they do push back hard enough, "pause" it 5) Illegally consolidate more power 6) Repeat

I cannot overstate the importance of reading books, particularly novels by respected authors, for critical thinking skills and reading comprehension. If the big gun novelists don't interest you, start small and work your way up. Or read whatever interests you. Just read. Or listen. It's all books.
