"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...

Duckworth on if she's open to voting to confirm Mike Waltz: "I think everybody on that Signal chain needs to be fired ... he's failing up ... I'm not open to voting for him, no, because he's already demonstrated he's incapable of doing the most basic thing, which is handling classified information."

This isn't hypothetical. The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

I love John Oliver, and I loved Sunday's episode, but one nitpick: It grated on me badly when Oliver referred to David Geier as a "vaccine skeptic." Geier is not a skeptic. He is a longtime antivax activist and producer of bad science and pseudoscience regarding vaccines and autism.

Trump’s first 100 days: * performative illegal EOs * melting down the US government, US standing in the world, science, and the economy * deporting US citizen children with cancer, among others * losing and losing and losing in court * triggering a huge domestic and global political backlash

Virginia Giuffre, one of the most prominent Epstein victims who also alleged she was sexually trafficked to Prince Andrew, has died. She was 41. Her family on Saturday issued a statement confirming she took her own life at her farm in Western Australia, where she had lived for several years.

Virginia Giuffre survived Jeffrey Epstein’s trafficking network, fought for justice, and became a voice for so many. Today, that light is gone. The toll of abuse never truly ends, even when the headlines do. Honor her by fighting for those still unheard. Rest in power, Virginia.

If we’re serious about more efficient government and better everyday life in America - which we all should be - that means actually improving government, not cutting health care for poor people and slashing support for veterans.

I'm not sure if every single one of NYC's 8.2 million residents would make a better mayor than either Eric Adams or Andrew Cuomo. But I bet half of them would. Which is to say if there were a ballot with ranked choice voting for candidates 1 to 4 million, I'd still leave both of them off my ballot.

Pete Hegseth was never qualified to lead our military—and he never will be. Sharing strike plans in a group chat with his wife and lawyer is reckless and dangerous. Trump must fire him now. Our troops deserve competence, not a walking national security risk.

This Hegseth thing is funny and all — but the unprecedented incompetence, frivolity, and treachery of the entire cabinet puts us all at very real risk.
