I admit it. This made my jaw drop. This total piece of shit has the audacity to try to mansplain what happens in a woman’s mind. To a woman. In an interview. That will be seen by everyone. I’m taking a break now to indulge in at least 5 full minutes of revenge fantasies.

Tim Snyder on Trump's fixation with Putin: If you believe in countries, the United States is a much more powerful country than Russia. But if you just believe that it’s gangster on gangster, well then sure, Putin is a much better gangster than Trump.

When they get back in power, Democrats need to go all-in on higher education. We need a campaign of reinvestment in public universities across the country that makes the Morrill Land-Grant Act look like nothing by comparison *and* a GI Bill of Rights-style program of tuition grants.

This is absolutely correct, but I worry that "truth and reconciliation" will sound too foreign to Americans who have long been allergic to truth and/or reconciliation. I'd just say "we're finally going to hold people who broke the law and violated the Constitution accountable for their crimes"

Wow!!
In the current moment of rising extremism, not all polarization is equivalent nor undesirable. Historical experience underscores this asymmetry. Normative appeals to civility and harmony, when applied indiscriminately, can obscure the moral distinction between domination and resistance—condemning confrontational opposition even in contexts where democratic survival or basic human dignity is at stake. Under conditions of systematic persecution, conflict is not a pathology of democracy but one of the few remaining mechanisms through which injustice can be resisted.

Freedom of the press has traditionally been one of the things that distinguishes our system from China's authoritarian model. Instead of showcasing that difference, an American president is generating headlines by undermining it.
