Only by acting promptly can Congress bring our nation into compliance with the Constitution and international law, reduce the risk of hostilities with neighboring countries and assure that similar abuses of Presidential power do not expand to American shores. bit.ly/3KVqX84

We at The Steady State have studied the indicators of authoritarianism for decades — usually dry words in intelligence reports. But sometimes, a single photograph says it all.

Authoritarianism doesn’t arrive all at once. It creeps in under cover of “order,” cloaked in uniforms, justified by fear.

“Knowledge is Good.” — Emil Faber

Democracy depends on facts -- the Congressional Research Service is a treasure — nonpartisan, deeply researched analysis to Congress (and, to the rest of us).

It’s free. It’s factual. A reminder that knowledge still is good.
