Very much this, from Dan Drezner. He focuses a lot on universities, but rightly so. U.S. educational, scientific and technological preeminence are closely linked — and all have a lot to do with the past openness of our society 1/ open.substack.com/pub/danieldr...

And the governor of Texas amplified it also: www.instagram.com/p/DC2kGixNr6... It’s wild that there are still people out there who think Elon actually cares about the truth, and that this DOGE department will be anything but an excuse for unfathomable corruption.

People have been puzzling over Scott Bessent's claim that tariffs can't be inflationary — which is, by the way, completely different from Trump's claim that foreigners will pay. The thing is, there is a kind of model here — one that is clear, consistent, and totally false 1/

Donald Trump will impose tariffs that raise prices. It is now cheaper to purchase Thanksgiving dinner in years thanks to President Biden. The difference could not be clearer.

When bin Laden attacked this country, we hunted him for 10 years and vowed to never forget. When Trump attacked this country, we RE-elected him president with a $400,000 salary and dropped the charges. We PAY him to hate this country no less than bin Laden did.

“The federal government has nothing to do with public schools curriculum” Fact-check: True. And it’s actually this incoming administration that is most likely to try to change that by interfering with their own agenda of indoctrination and privatization. Listen:

In Hungary, a key Orbán tactic in dismantling their democracy was that his allies bought media outlets that were critical of the regime and turned them into loyal cheerleaders for the regime.

France and UK are currently in talks about deploying troops to Ukraine. With the US more unreliable than ever under Trump, a European coalition of the willing is forming to help thwart the Russian invasion.

If you have fewer than 1000 people following you, it's more important for you to repost this than anyone. My friends from the other place will eventually find me one way or the other. Let's make sure YOU find your friends and comrades and make sure you don't feel isolated and give up.

Everything that is happening with the new Trump administration is to scare you. To make you want to put your head under the covers and never surface. Do not. You are needed. Because they are going to face a resistance they were not prepared for. No more playing around. 🖖

Remember when being a woman was a pre-existing medical condition? Insurance companies could actually deny coverage for pregnancies. MAGA Republicans have promised to repeal the Affordable Care Act and leave every person in the US with a pre existing condition vulnerable again. We will stop them!

the reward Dems get for allowing - contrary to the explicit letter of the constitution! - insurrectionist Republicans back into Congress in 2021 is that the Republicans are now basically refusing to allow a duly elected Democrat into congress because she's trans.

This should terrify every American. It doesn’t matter where you stand on immigration. Using our military as a domestic law enforcement tool at mass scale will destroy its core purpose, turn the American people against them, and damage the institution for decades.

When right-wing scum tried to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer, Republicans made excuses. When a lunatic beat Paul Pelosi with a hammer, they made jokes. And when Trump sent a mob to attack the Capitol, they made up lies. Don’t lecture us about condemning violence.
