My argument is we need to focus on building functional Deweyan ("improvement of the methods & conditions of debate, discussion & persuasion") publics and counterpublics which share the same set of principles, that make them legible to institutions, & that institutions need to be responsive to that.

Putin told Iran the locations of our warships. Today, Trump rewarded him by lifting sanctions and allowing American dollars to fuel Russia’s war machine. Our troops are in harm’s way, and the President cut a deal with the adversary putting a target on their backs.

Free weekend out. The big story is that Donald Trump is now free to be what he always was--strong supporter of Vladimir Putin and an agent pushing for Russian victory. He no longer has to pretend he cares at all about Ukrainian dead or Russian War crimes. phillipspobrien.substack.com/p/weekend-up...

Been worried about that for a while but there must be a reason that hasn't happened yet. Maybe it's a further step along this direction. I would hope some people in the IC would be extremely resistant to that, especially while Russian intelligence is continuing to help Iran target US forces.

Will Hutchinson 🌻 @unnamedwill.bsky.social · 10/10/2026

It's a BFD in the acceleration of Trump's betrayal, but this may not practically help Trump at all as it's too little diesel and comes too slowly. And I don't think Trump can stop Ukraine continuing their campaign against Russia's energy infrastructure.

Zelenskyy: While our teams are meeting in Florida, US President is having conversation with Kremlin leader responsible for this war. I believe they are simply using our team as a cover...clearly not acting in good faith as a partner. And this, in my view, is a weak decision from strong partners.

Thinking about it, what will probably happen if they really want to try to overturn the House election results is they will send a bunch of candidates that lost their races and claim they are the real Member-elects.

Mike Johnson might pretend to still be Speaker and act like he can refuse to seat members and some people might follow along and we'll have a crisis, sure. But this isn't like the still-VP certifying an election of someone else January 6 before they become not-VP at noon on January 20.

Will Hutchinson 🌻 @unnamedwill.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

I don't understand why people talk about it this way. At noon on January 3, 2027, Mike Johnson is not Speaker, he is not even a Member of the House. No one is. 435 Member-elects show up and all have equal power and need to elect a Speaker to then get sworn in as actual Members.

But none of this addresses why people are seeking out what's considered to be disinformation. It treats it as a supply side issue, where if we can filter out the bad information, people only see good information, and democracy wins, but we know people seek the information out.

I also think discourse around disinformation keeps falling into the trap of treating it as a supply side issue, rather than examining the demand side and what to do about that. That is a far more pressing, and far more complicated, problem.

I recommend people read this to get a sense of the president's grave cognitive impairment. Trump is either unwilling or unable (or maybe both) to answer the questions he's actually asked, so he just rants and raves while the interviewers do their best to provide structure to his random brain firings

Trump now says "If I weren't president, Saudi Arabia wouldn't be here right now ... They'd be wiped off the face of the planet." 🙃

Yes, there were reports after the Houthi attacks that Saudi Arabia wasn't pleased that the U.S. didn't come to its defense. What's your relationship like with the Saudis right now?

Good, good. I've done a lot for Saudi Arabia. I protect Saudi Arabia. If I weren't president, Saudi Arabia wouldn't be here right now. Neither would Israel. They'd be wiped off the face of the planet. I do a lot for Saudi Arabia. My relationship with them is very good. I like the crown prince. My relationship is very good. But remember, if I weren't here, there wouldn't be a Saudi Arabia. There wouldn't be an Israel. There wouldn't be various other countries also.
