β€œEvery authoritarian who successfully destroyed judicial independence did so because civil society failed to unite in time,” Bonica writes. β€œThe key difference? Whether people mobilized.” Heather Cox Richardson open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

Bonica notes, something different happened in Israel in 2023. When Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition tried to destroy judicial independence, people from all parts of society took to the streets. A broad, nonpartisan group came together to defend democracy and resist authoritarianism.

Bonica goes on to illustrate how this pattern of authoritarian attacks on the judiciary looks the same across nations: 2009, Italy’s Silvio Berlusconi.
In 2016, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan of TΓΌrkiye. Zimbabwe’s Robert Mugabe.
In the Philippines in 2018, Rodrigo Duterte.
In Brazil in 2021, Jair Bolsonaro.

Maybe men would understand consent better if their parents didn’t en masse cut off their foreskins without their consent as infants.

Now that the lawsuits are rolling in, the White House position is that Musk isn't actually anything, and DOGE isn't an agency? So then, what exactly is this entity doing to all these actual federal agencies with absolute impunity?

Wisconsin lawmakers pit neighbor against neighbor with every school referendum | Opinion Like some James Bond movie villain, the Legislature has set up a diabolical game for citizens to play every election cycle with school referendums.

We need to fix the broken state funding system. Don't believe the lies. If Wisconsin was adequately funding public schools, we wouldn't have to constantly raise local taxes to keep the lights on.
