YES. THIS. I’m reading it now. SO TIMELY.
I just finished reading “How to Stand Up to a Dictator” by @mariaressa.bsky.social
If you want to know why the world, especially the U.S. political system, is why it is right now (even though this book is focused on the Philippines) you should read this book.
And then delete Facebook.

Young voters really don't like Elon Musk.
His unfavorability is 54% with all voters. 67% with voters under 30.
Feels important for a party that needs to win a much bigger share of young voters.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau uncovered $21 billion of cheating and returned it directly to Americans.
That little agency is proof that we can make the government work for people.
Trump and Musk want to take that away, but we won't stop fighting to protect it.

NEW: A moment in Munich.
Zelenskyy says Russia is creating 15 new divisions of 150,000 soldiers: "Maybe these soldiers are for Ukraine. Maybe they are for you.”
He ends hoping for peace.
A long, standing ovation.
What a contrast to Vance, met with silence as he torched transatlantic relations.
