The neo-reactionary blogger Curtis Yarvin’s call for a monarch to rule America once seemed like a joke. Not anymore.

Fearing reprisals from the smallminded bigot Donald Trump, corporations are withholding hundreds of thousands of dollars from Pride events this summer. This proves that their "support" was never genuine. Pride was just seen as another opportunity to advertise. www.edgemedianetwork.com/story/339627

Wisconsin's Supreme Court race is now the most expensive court race in U.S. history — largely due to donations from out-of-state billionaires. As Justice Louis Brandeis said, we can have great wealth in the hands of a few, or we can have democracy, but we can't have both.
