The question today is the same as it was during the first Gilded Age: Will we fight for an economy and a democracy that works for all rather than a wealthy few?

It was a warning that some future President could easily become a dictator or king.

Can someone with a military background explain why this isnโt an act of war? The victim is a โUS-flaggedโ vessel โat anchor in the North Sea and carrying huge amounts of jet fuel for the US military.โ The deliberate attackโs aggressor is a Russian captain.

๐จOFFICIAL 50501 STATEMENT ON VIOLENCE & WEAPONS๐จ
We have a zero-tolerance policy regarding discussions of firearms, violence or any form of incitement on our channels and platforms. You will be banned. 50501 stands for justice, progress, and the power of the people-peacefully. Letโs keep it that way
Being a historian, people ask me if I think the US is living through Germany 1933.
I answer no, analogies are always imperfect but to me it feels more like Russia 1999: a blatant theft of state assets and liberals in a fugue state, refusing to believe the arc of progress is bending against them.
