Mussolini and his regime went about not only controlling the government but every aspect of Italian society. He also plastered his image on everything and cultivated a macho, aggressive strongman image. anntelnaes.substack.com/p/me-me-me

In the first few months of 2025, the Trump administration attempted to cancel around $267 million in federal spending on legal aid for migrants. For legal aid groups all over America, recovery from the tumultuous early months of the second Trump administration has been excruciating.

First Trump came for immigrants. Then he came for their lawyers.
How legal aid groups survived the administration’s attacks—barely.

Maria Ressa was awarded the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize (with Dmitry Muratov) for "their efforts to safeguard freedom of expression, which is a precondition for #democracy and lasting peace." She is the first Nobel laureate from the Philippines. Happy birthday @mariaressa.bsky.social 🥳
A color photograph of Maria Ressa, born October 2, 1963, the pioneering Filipino journalist, co-founder of Rappler, and co-recipient of the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize. She is standing at a dark wooden podium, captured from the chest up. Smiling broadly with an expression of joy and animation, she looks slightly to the right of the frame. She wears thin, rimless eyeglasses, a black turtleneck, and a textured, patterned blazer in shades of cream and light pink or soft orange. Her right hand is raised forward with her palm open and fingers extended in a welcoming, expressive gesture, while her left hand grips the flexible neck of a black microphone attached to the podium. The warm, soft-focus background suggests a grand indoor lecture hall or auditorium with architectural details. The bright, direct lighting emphasizes her optimistic and commanding presence, reflecting her historical significance as a fearless champion of freedom of expression and democratic resilience.

Her new book, "The Fight Back: A Citizen’s Guide to Standing Up to Dictators" (coming Oct 13): a practical field guide & resistance manifesto. It outlines a roadmap for protecting global democracy in the modern age, specifically focusing on the threats posed by AI & digital disinformation. #BookSky
The book cover for The Fight Back: A Citizen’s Guide to Standing Up to Dictators by Nobel Peace Prize laureate Maria Ressa, scheduled for publication on October 13, features a bold design on a textured, off-white background. The title dominates the upper half, with the word "FIGHT" rendered in large, distressed black block letters, and the word "BACK" positioned directly beneath it in an equally large, heavily weathered crimson red font, creating an urgent, revolutionary aesthetic. The subtitle, "A CITIZEN'S GUIDE TO STANDING UP TO DICTATORS," is centered in clean black sans-serif text between two thick horizontal black divider lines. Below the lower line, the text "AUTHOR OF HOW TO STAND UP TO A DICTATOR" introduces the author’s name, "MARIA RESSA," printed in prominent, slightly distressed black capital letters. At the very bottom, a final line in red states, "WINNER OF THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE." The minimalist, striking layout conveys a somber yet defiant mood of resistance.

Similarly, people keep asking me if immigration will get much better if Democrats retake Congress and the answer is "probably not." ICE is largely insulated from Congressional pushback (the 2026 budget reconciliation bill funded them through 2029) and hearings and subpoenas can only do so much.

The price you pay at the grocery store shouldn’t depend on how much a corporation thinks it can squeeze out of you. With surveillance pricing, companies can use AI and your personal data to calculate how much you’ll pay for what you need.
