JD Vance owns AcreTrader, an app that lets wealthy—often foreign—investors buy up U.S. farmland. Guess who’s deliberately tanking farm economies so JD and his billionaire tech buddies can scoop it up for pennies. civileats.com/2024/09/18/j...

The Trump admin claims this is to "comport with market rates." There are no "market rates." All of this research is being done via NIH grants because "the market" won't fund it. But it needs to be done. This is devastating to U.S. science, yet will reduce annual federal outlays by only ≈0.07%.

Russell Vought has been confirmed to lead OMB, over strenuous protest from Democrats. This is the man who said he wanted to put federal workers “in trauma” and to make them “villains.” We live in dangerous times.

I want people to understand this. For many of them, democracy ended when Obama was elected twice and Black Lives Matter rose to prominence. This is them “fixing” a system that felt broken and newly unsafe to them.

America is increasingly run by rich people who have a strong opinion about what the law should be and just act accordingly by breaking the law. You can't impound appropriations or stop payments on contracts because you dislike the spending.

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

I mean just to prevent normalisation: let us never ever forget how incredibly, nuclear-scale cringe it is to have called this destructive and stupid exercise “DOGE”. I am struggling to think of anything more cringe any ruler has done and I include Caligula making his favourite horse a senator.

Every dictatorship and tyrannical regime in history came from a democracy that thought it could never happen to them. Historian Timothy Snider took a hard look at the rise of authoritarian regimes in the 20th century, and compiled 20 lessons on how to prevent it from happening. Pass this on... 🧵

Excellent piece. Modern autocrats arrive at power via elections, and then gradually erode democracy until only a facade remains. Coups provoke mass opposition and mobilization: salami tactics don’t.

The White House didn't say "stop teaching about the Tuskegee Airmen when you do US history." The White House said "stop doing DEI and wokeness," and the military interpreted it as "stop saying the Tuskegee Airmen were heroes, and maybe stop teaching about them altogether." Yeah, that's bad.
