tim frye @timfrye.bsky.social · 18/02/2026maybe these two stories could have been one story. NYT with a not so subtle choice of article placement. 062
tim frye @timfrye.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Maybe those Mercator Maps were not such a good idea after all. 2374
tim frye @timfrye.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Five years since the January 6th insurrection and a reminder that in the moment many Republicans and Trump voters were appalled, but many also were not. 071
tim frye @timfrye.bsky.social · 27/09/2025So many echoes from this article for US politics.... 201044341
tim frye @timfrye.bsky.social · 22/08/2025"Uneasy Mix?" Seriously NYT? This is lawfare in a particularly pure form and straight from the autocratic playbook. 3163
tim frye @timfrye.bsky.social · 15/06/2025Any ideas why the US Dept of Defense has two small Russian flags in their celebration of US Flag day? 4268

tim frye @timfrye.bsky.social · 21/03/2025Earlier this week five of my senior colleagues wrote a response to the demands placed on Columbia. The link is here. I also post a short note from Senior Faculty in the Department of Political Science who endorse their response. open.substack.com/pub/danieldr... 816453
tim frye @timfrye.bsky.social · 19/03/2025As a Columbia Ph.D. and current faculty member, this would be very disappointing. As a researcher on autocracy, not challenging these charges in court and in public opinion would be a grave mistake. 1398
tim frye @timfrye.bsky.social · 15/03/2025Seriously, Democratic Senators had their first meeting on the CR on Tuesday? 121
tim frye @timfrye.bsky.social · 13/02/2025With all due respect to the president of Princeton, 'Keep Calm and Carry On" is capitulation disguised as prudence.

tim frye @timfrye.bsky.social · 17/11/2024For new followers, here is some of my recent work on how Trump supporters responded to the insurrection of January 6th in real time. Sharp disapproval in the short-run, but it didn't last. Also a piece on public support for aid to Ukraine. Dems moved by normative appeals, Reps by a Trump appeal. 080
