Here is my best guidance, rendered beautifully by the great John Lithgow. I first published these lessons nearly nine years ago, in late 2016. They open the twenty chapters of "On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century."

This is excellent. In three minutes she explains how democracies become dictatorships. It's happened so many times, yet in each country, most people said, 'it can't happen here'
#StaceyAbrams explains how to achieve an #autocracy in 10 steps.

We're at step 9.

Thanks to our Ag budget, Minnesota continues to test milk for highly pathogenic avian influenza, even after the Trump administration cut federal funding for testing.

Protecting public health and Minnesota’s dairy is the right thing to do. #WorldMilkDay #avianinfluenza #birdflu

None of the minerals in the proposed mines near the BWCA come primarily from China. But Rep. Stauber wants you to think they do. My latest for the DNT.
Local View: Allowing mining near BWCAW won't stop China

These are the people who monitor and publish Lake Superior's conditions every day. Minnesotans along the North Shore rely on NOAA to know whether or not it’s safe to go out on the water.

These agencies and their staff do real work that keeps us safe, it just goes unnoticed - until they’re gone.
