“The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.” — James Madison, Federalist 47.

Nature sentiment is at an all-time low.
Look at this yippy plant. Bet it’s whining about free trade through the mycorrhizal network.

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024.

This isn't due to luck or skill.

Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you.

Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.

Why is tRump killing the economy? Easy answer. He wants to destroy the U.S. to make us look like the Russian economy so he can impose martial law and enable him to be dictator for life.

A great piece. The only add-on is to think of the resistance movement as a longer term war with many battles, all sorts of tactics, strategic retreats, exploration of all asymmetries and led by excellent, unconventional ‘warfare’ strategists.

Finally, someone gets it. Jonathan Last's fine piece.

Dissident movement. Resistance. Underground. I have started to look at 20th century street art and sloganeering for visual/verbal exemplars.

Oklahoma Republicans are moving to change the state’s Social Studies curriculum to suggest to kids that the 2020 election was rigged.

They want to order teachers to tell students that the ballots are disputed and have “discrepancies.”
