Please repeat over and over: “Bending to the whims of a bully will not end his cruelty. It will only embolden him. The response to authoritarianism isn’t acquiescence. Bullies respond to one thing, and one thing only: a punch in the face.” —Gov. JB Pritzker

They should cancel the Olympics here. The world doesn't need to reward the hate permeating from this once great nation that is no longer great, but run by criminals with no respect for the law. I'm in L.A. and I say this. You may send people who won't return. Just say no the USA Olympics, world

"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...

Tool for local journalists! @climatetrace.org monitors 300 satellites and 30,000 sensors to identify “exactly where greenhouse gas emissions are coming from.” They've begun issuing monthly reports, enabling journalists to track nearby emissions sources and ask officials about the pollution.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.
