If you hear ADHD and think "everyone has trouble paying attention" or that people "just need to learn to focus," then you please unfollow me now. It's real, I have it, and I have no patience for the naysayers.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased. Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power. Without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-69d

Five Failures in the Oval Office (video) America hurt itself badly today.

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

When you have eminent investigative political journalist @carolecadwalla.bsky.social discussing eminent fascism & authoritarianism historian @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social, and both of them are telling you it's a coup...

IT'S A GODDAM COUP.

Every opinion piece in the Washington Post must now follow Bezos' new rightwing guidelines. Writers can say that they would have written the same thing anyway, but the fact remains: Their piece was only published because it met his new rightwing guidelines.

Support independent, pro-democracy media.
