Yesterday was a bad day for Elon Musk and Donald Trump, and a good day for democracy.

Susan Crawford’s win in Wisconsin sent the message that the people will always be more powerful than an oligarch’s pocketbook.

Someday soon, he'll get his parade. We'll ALL watch it. The whole world will remember where they were. The cheering and applause will be insane. We'll have tears in our eyes, and there will be commemorative merchandise.

The chaos isn’t a side effect; it’s the goal. MAGA wants to overwhelm us with cruelty and confusion, hoping we’ll freeze.

The next few years are going to be tough, but just remember what Anne Herbert said:
