Rather than fascism or single-party dictatorship, the US is sliding toward a more 21st-century model of autocracy: competitive authoritarianism—a system in which parties compete in elections but incumbent abuse of power systematically tilts the playing field against the opposition. 🎁 gift article

The New Authoritarianism

This isn’t single-party rule, but it’s not democracy either.

Musk's latest power grab: your Medicare benefits.

Elon - you're looking in the wrong place. Private insurers in Medicare Advantage overcharged taxpayers by at least $83 billion in 2024 alone.

And yet still no Republicans screaming, "lock him up!"

Republicans are such hypocrites.

Elon Musk is single-handedly causing more destruction to American communities than if an enemy force infiltrated our country.

This is a classic case of cutting off your nose to spite your face. US companies & farmers supply this branch of government with goods and they have now lost this customer.

If you ever wondered what a jellyfish with NO testicular fortitude looks like, this is it👇Senator Cassidy (R-LA) folded like a cheap suit and voted to advance RFK Jr out of committee today, totally defying his Hippocratic oath. MAGA Republicans will never put country over party! Shameful!

I am not sure who I am more angry with: the idiot MAGA cult members who word for Trump or the idiot "protest non-voters" who stayed at home because they couldn't "in their conscience" vote for Kamala...

Prior to Covid it was normal to mask in the NICU. People understood that premature babies are as vulnerable as they come and need to protected.

Now? Gowns & gloves but no masking.

The damage caused by anti mask rhetoric will be felt for years (possibly decades) to come.

It’s perfect. Here Sheryl was, “leaning in,” taking charge, being the front woman and explainer and COO for the terminally vacant, inarticulate, and people-repelling Zuck FOR YEARS, and rather than gratitude, he does this.

How low can you get? But a great cautionary career tale for powerful women.

It really is such masculine energy to blame things on a woman who no longer works at the company www.nytimes.com/2025/01/16/u...

Mr. Zuckerberg was amenable. He signaled to Mr. Miller and his colleagues, including other senior Trump advisers, that he would do nothing to obstruct the Trump agenda, according to three people with knowledge of the meeting, who asked for anonymity to discuss a private conversation. Mr. Zuckerberg said he would instead focus solely on building tech products.

Mr. Zuckerberg blamed his former chief operating officer, Sheryl Sandberg, for Facebook’s culture, according to one of the people with knowledge of the meeting. He said new guidelines and a series of layoffs amounted to a reset and that more changes were coming.
