Some state legislatures now openly defy federal authority, proposing bills that nullify national law. This echoes the Confederation-era chaos Jay warned against—and reveals how disunion isn’t theoretical. It is creeping into our legal and civic reality.

Economic Fragmentation: “State vs. State” battles (e.g., Florida and California’s opposing laws on LGBTQ+ rights, education, and COVID-19 policies) weaken national cohesion, undermining America’s ability to compete with China’s centralized economic strategy. #PubliusRewritten

Foreign Mediation in Polarization: Authoritarian regimes like Russia amplify domestic discord via social media, exploiting divisions over race, guns, and elections. A “divided America invites foreign manipulation” echoes in the 2016–2024 election interference scandals. #PubliusRewritten

Yet vigilance also means resisting democratic fatigue. Democracies do not fail solely because of coups or invaders—but also because citizens retreat from responsibility. In an age of outrage and overload, reasoned participation is a radical act of preservation.

Rejecting populist demagoguery: Leaders who incite violence or promise “easy fixes” to complex issues (e.g., immigration, inflation) mirror Hamilton’s disdain for those who “flatter prejudices to betray interests.”

Misinformation: Social media’s viral lies threaten the “enlightened electorate” the Framers envisioned. In an era where deepfakes distort reality and entire networks profit from falsehoods, the foundation of rational self-government erodes.
