Illiberalism Is Not Inevitable If Viktor Orbán can lose, then his Russian and American admirers can lose too.

How did Magyar win? A long running grassroots campaign in rural and small town Hungary; a refusal to be distracted by government propaganda; a focus on economic issues and corruption; a central promise to bring back democracy and the rule of law

It's gonna be a big one.

As of today, it's still 12 days until the next No Kings Day on Saturday March 28, but organizers say there are already nearly 3000 separate protests planned in the US:

No Kings
No Thrones
No Crowns
No War

A woman in a light purple wig sits in passenger seat of zamboni, holding a banner which states "no ICE, no more, no kings, no fear" in same font and colors as Minnesota Frost team iconography.

Absolute Queen behavior from the Zamboni Rider today at the Minnesota Frost game.
No ICE
No War
No Kings

No Fear.

No Kings As the president escalates his authoritarian power grab, the NO KINGS non-violent movement continues to rise stronger. We are united once again to remind the world: America has No Kings and the power ...

No Kings. March 28th. Make a plan for where you'll be and bring your family and friends.

Ukraine is holding back Russia and thus fulfilling the entire traditional mission of NATO without any soldiers or sailors from other countries. Trump is meanwhile demanding NATO allies leave the continent they are supposed to be defending to join him in a doomed adventure he chose in the Middle East

Please read this important work. I tried to get at the larger issue in an essay called "Oligarchical Corridor."

Consumptive Capitalism On MAHA and Expensive Suffering -- A Guest Post by Sara Silverstein

Professor @sarasilverstein.bsky.social is someone to whom I listen on issues of health and history. This essay helps us to situate the present American health drama in the history of health care, and thereby to see much more clearly what we face.

I’ve written about this multiple times, but MOST countries aren’t prepared for this kind of war.

I don’t think folks understand how much combat has evolved during the Russo-Ukrainian war.

It’s unrecognizable from other modern conflicts.

We are deciding right now whether we want to be a country with ethnic cleansing and concentration camps.

"Let's not get our knickers in a twist?" What a rapey thing to say about minimizing child rape.

Congress looks to reclaim relevance after ceding power to White House Frustrated lawmakers are looking to 2026 in the hopes that they can reclaim some of the power many fear they’ve ceded to the White House under President Trump. Over the course of 2025, the Trump ad…

This is what I’ve been talking about for months now:

GOP lawmakers are trying to figure out how to reclaim their power after ceding it all to the White House.

The problem? They’re cowards, and most of them are just going to resign instead.

50 States, 50 Fixes A New York Times series looked at initiatives to tackle climate change in each U.S. state.

As the U.S. government reverses course on renewable energy projects and other policies related to climate change, environmental solutions may seem out of reach. But they’re happening all over the country.

Listen to "The Daily."

Strange takes on Mayor Zamdani swearing his oath on the Qu’ran. It has nothing to do with church & state. The point of the oath is for the person swearing in to do so upon some text that is sacred TO THEM. Some Presidents swore in w/o any book. John Quincy Adams was sworn on a law book. His choice.

CNN is lost:

Before Bari Weiss pulled the 60 Minutes segment on CECOT, @propublica.org @texastribune.org & a team of Venezuelan journalists compiled a first-of-its-kind, case-by-case accounting of 238 Venezuelan men who were held in El Salvador.

CBS didn't run the 60 Minutes segment on CECOT, but over here at @propublica.org we've been working on the story since March, including finding out who each and every man sent to that maximum security prison was.
