@chrischirp.bsky.social I love the tracker but I feel like some of the items you track need some context to support the claim. This one comes across as “we just assume this dude is going to eff up the immigration courts.” Even one sentence explanation of how this undermines democracy would help.

The lede nails it, Europe doesn't just don't have to worry about political interference from Russia and China, but now it has to worry about it from the US via MAGA and Elon Musk. A very worthwhile read. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/13/w...

I’ve had a lot going on, pulling my attention from political news, which can be anxiety-ridden. Just read a great summary and commentary by @hcrichardson.bsky.social of Biden's speech yesterday. This paragraph stood out. heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/december-1... #SupplySideEconomics

1/4 Not super thrilled about Hunter pardon. Hunter was guilty of multiple crimes and deserves some punishment in line what any other person would have received.

This is fantastic and something that I hope other news organizations adopt. It is critical that legitimate news using journalistic practices become accessible to all (not behind paywalls) to combat disinformation.

I’ve never even been in a book club, let alone started one, but I'm thinking of starting one. Would any other Utahans be interested in joining - “Democracy Dialogues” - A book club exploring the forces that shape & threaten democracy, informed by history & global perspectives?
