Disabling the Russian bots that make up the majority of online MAGA right before the U.S. election arguably did more good for democracy and Ukraine than anything else could've. Thank you, Ukraine! www.tomshardware.com/tech-industr...

That is slander. Israel finances health coverage through a combination of an income-based health tax, general government state budgets, and private out-of-pocket or supplementary insurance payments. The US could have the same system if Americans didn’t elected ruthless Republicans and libertarians.

Publishers Weekly listed A Resistance History of the United States today with a 100,000-copy first printing. Maybe we are finally ready to reckon with how America was actually built, who built it, who resisted it, and why the orthodox story has always worked so hard to make all that disappear.
