Pre-ordering for my book “Julian Augustus: Platonism, Myth, & the Refounding of Rome” is now available! For yourself, if you can afford it, or for your university library. The more hardcovers get sold, the more likely @oxfordacademic.bsky.social will do a print run of more affordable paperbacks!

I saw someone post, "It's too late to save America." No it's not. Not even close. We will NEVER stop fighting the lawlessness, the unconstitutionally, the tyranny. The time is NOW! In fact, "THE TIME IS ALWAYS NOW." (Artist: Peter Tunney)

Only a mentally ill person would think they can be a draft dodger, consistently insult veterans, active duty military, and dead heroes, and think they deserve to have a military parade in their own honor… Just sick!

@markhertling.bsky.social tells a bittersweet tale here. A tragedy that kills 4 US soldiers, our European friends and allies mobilize to help find them and honor them, the whole situation handled with respect and love. Once we were a country like that. @thebulwark.bsky.social

It’s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything that’s happening right now wasn’t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.

One way to think of what’s going on is that Trump & his gang are trust fund kids spending down the reservoir of U.S. power & influence without understanding or caring where the balance in that account came from. They treat it as just a fact of nature that there will always plenty there.

Just saying: if Lloyd Austin had done this, every GOP lawmaker would call for his resignation by close-of-business the same day, and they'd probably have it.

Applebaum warned: “Democracies often fail not with coups, but when elected leaders manipulate state institutions.” Applebaum also explained this is “how most democracies fail. Elected leaders unlevel the playing field, not with coups—but through manipulation.”

I’ll repeat — if the goal ISN’T to specifically and deliberately weaken and isolate the United States as quickly as possible, how would a plan to do that look any different than what they are doing?

Don't mean to be sensationalist or hyperbolic, but if the ultimate outcome of this is the federal government is permitted to extraordinarily render unidentified people without evidence or charge to a foreign mega-prison and refuse to answer a judge's basic questions about it, that's it, it's over
