NEW: A new documentary, "Antidote," recounts the harrowing tale of a Russian hit squad targeting Christo Grozev after he uncovered the plot to kill Alexei Navalny. It exposes Putin's regime of terror. I spoke to Grozev about this for my OUR LAND newsletter. link.motherjones.com/public/39722...

A strong, independent media is essential in a free society. However, the oligarch controlled media is not going to protect us. The billionaires sitting on stage with Trump are not victims. They will profit from his lies and cannot be trusted to safeguard democracy.

Jon Meacham (total history stud) just quoted a former Speaker of the House. "Any jackass can kick over a barn, it takes a carpenter to build one." Doesn't mean you can't fix the barn, but you don't have to burn the place to the ground just because you can. That's what we're doing.

The premise of American foreign policy to Ukraine, today, is one of grievance. It is worth patiently considering the proposals. They reveal little about Ukraine, but much about America in February 2025. snyder.substack.com/p/recoup-the...

This was the first time in their lives, I realized, that these boys and girls had been in an actual classroom. The Russian invasion began as covid was ending. Two years of covid seclusion had been followed directly by three years of war. The kids were buoyant. snyder.substack.com/p/my-favorit...

“The USA is on a crime spree against foreign civilians and against its own people. Self-inflicted wounds are nothing new. The US government long ago justified them by deeming the targets — Black Americans, indigenous peoples, different ethnic groups at different times — as not truly American.”

Some analysts estimate that the risk of serious domestic unrest (not necessarily full-scale civil war) could range between 10-20% over the next decade, based on current trends. This is what Putin wanted with his MAGA psyop. The indoctrinated are too far gone to ever realize they're in a cult.

Trump alone didn't beat the justice system. He had help. It took Oligarchs relentlessly amplifying his lies on their media platforms. Ethically compromised members of the Supreme Court. 70+ million willing to vote for a convicted felon. There's a lot to fix. But it can be fixed. It must.

This moment in Bluesky is a great example of how joy itself can be defiance and resistance. We are just hanging out, shitposting, being silly, happy, and normal. It is being treated as if it is transgressive, opting out of the endless negativity. Because in a way, it is. Joy is my favorite weapon.
