Lotta folks here at No Kings, Orange County NC.

Lots of American flags, a fellow in an inflatable dino costume asking everyone if they've read the Declaration of Independence and handing out copies.

No kings in North Carolina.

What about the US response to Russia attacking Poland?

The death of every person killed in school shootings and the assassination of Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband deserve the same national attention and flag at half-mast honors as the awful murder of Charlie Kirk.

This critique of RFK Jr’s incompetence is vastly understated. It’s not just that his views are “unscientific” but the conspiracy theories and “survival of the fittest” approach to public health that he endorses is likely to lead to the death and illness of many Americans.

It is, in fact, astonishing that the USA has twice voted in a man who for his own glory will repeat directly to the American people lies that the head of an enemy state has told him as if they were important truths.

The White House directive for the Smithsonian to "align messaging" with a political task force is a sanitized term for creating a ministry of truth. This is how democratic erosion accelerates. We must not be silent.

Having served on the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Council and the President’s Committee on the Arts and the Humanities, I can tell you that state control of historical narrative is a bright red line.

"Since the first messenger who told Tigranes that Lucullus was coming had his head cut off for his pains, no one else would tell him anything, and so he sat in ignorance while the fires of war were blazing around him, giving ear only to those who flattered him."

-- Plutarch, ≈ 100 A.D.

Next January I'm attending my first APA meeting in over a decade. I'm presenting a paper on "William James, Mysticism and Theosophy". I've been immersed in James's writings during the past year, and this is my first paper about his work. #philsky

The Nature and Purpose of Public Dissections in Early Modern London Abstract. Modern scholarship on the early modern European anatomy theater has long argued that public dissections were theatrical, carnivalesque affairs ch

I don't talk about it much but part of my work in the history of medicine focuses on medical and scientific imaging. For this work, familiarity with the history of anatomy is critical (if you aren't sure why, I recommend Foucault, The Birth of the Clinic).

This looks so interesting!

I have been working on a global health ethics project for three years that may be coming to fruition sometime in the next couple of months. There remains some uncertainty about it now, but if things work out, I'll have a major announcement to make by the end of September. #medsky #philsky #bioethics

Honored to be part of this symposium! Your book is an important contribution to the field, Josh. Thank you for the opportunity to respond to it and to be in the company of this wonderful cast of contributors!

Congratulations!

4/ I hope a third political party will emerge that will capture the moderates in the Democratic and Republican parties that I think still make up the majority of Americans, and restore the notion that cruelty is a vice.

3/ the increase in funding for ICE to increase deportations (and expand Trump’s secret police force) all exemplify a rapid turn away from the vestiges of liberalism remaining in the US and towards totalitarianism.

2/ The GOP are not just cruel and ignorant people, they are misologists prone to excessive sentimentality. The horror and absurdity of the Alligator Alcatraz concentration camp; the massive funding taken away from an already inadequate social safety net;

1/ Cruelty is one of the worst vices in societies that value freedom and equality (a point from Judith Shklar). The disregard for the poor, sick, and vulnerable and the hatred of compassion that dominates the culture of MAGA is a “re-evaluation of values” that regards cruelty as the highest virtue.

Opinion | Trump’s Deportation Program Is About Control. Even if You Are a U.S. Citizen.

“You cannot control outsiders (immigrants or would-be immigrants) without controlling insiders (citizens). The more vigorously you try to control immigration, the more you end up limiting the freedom of your citizens and violating equality and the rule of law.”

Take note.

The US Constitution, specifically Article I, Section 8, Clause 11, grants Congress the sole power to declare war. The President cannot unilaterally initiate a war; only Congress can formally declare it.

Such sad news

2025: we must go to war to eliminate the weapons of mass destruction in the Middle East

2001: we must go to war to eliminate the weapons of mass destruction in the Middle East

Just another war to try to drum up political support at home for a radical conservative agenda .
