Tim Snyder is correct: If Democrats want to regain working people, they must disavow Big Money and tackle our corrupt system. There’s no way the party can speak for or represent the working class in America if it's beholden to corporate interests.

We need people like Abdul El-Sayed in congress. He was trained as a systems scientist. His doctoral dissertation was in epidemiology. MAHA is a response to distrust in corporations that bring science to our daily lives. Eg. people are paying more for insulin to stay alive. 🧪 archive.today/9ElCc

Power to the People Festival was awesome!! You can replay on YouTube. Really inspirational. I realized I should have listened more to rap, not just what made it to radio. Those men are truth tellers! Don't like the misogyny stuff, but all rock of a certain era has that problem. Great freedom themes

Russia has imposed strict limits on the freedom of young men in a move that paves the way for mass military mobilisation, a leaked document suggests. Conscription laws require ­men aged between 18 and 30 to sign up with enlistment offices so they can be called up to fight if needed.

"Empire of Grift” by @anneapplebaum.wsocial.eu
Slowly, the Brazilians were learning the same lesson as other American allies around the world: The United States of America is no longer the entity they knew. And American power is no longer deployed solely by trained diplomats and reliable officials, working through state channels. Informal envoys, private companies, online grifters, and hardened ideologues both inside and outside the government matter more. Unlike their predecessors, these people do not talk about spreading democracy, and don’t want to build long-term relationships. They don’t care about America’s reputation. They are deploying the tools of American diplomacy and government for their own purposes, to promote their own business interests or their own ideological goals, because, suddenly, they can.

The Watergate hearings were on network TV all day, five days a week. It was inescapable. If Nixon had been "couped out of office" it was by mortified Republicans because - again - it was all on TV, and they didn't want to go to prison.
