What Was the American Revolution For?
Amid plans to mark the nation’s semiquincentennial, many are asking whether or not the people really do rule, and whether the law is still king.

the symbolism of “Trump destroying the White House for a overpriced luxury vanity project, during a government shut down, days after a historically-large mass demonstration against his regime called “No Kings”’ would be rightly viewed as laying it on a little thick if it was in a work of fiction

Congrats to @juliaioffe.bsky.social on today’s publication of ‘Motherland’! It’s a terrific book that helps explain why Russia is the way it is today, and you should read it and see why it’s already a finalist for the National Book Award…

This is a huge scandal, one of the worst in modern law enforcement and something that is astoundingly unconstitutional and illegal.
