Heather Cox Richardson's "Letters from an American" August 23rd is worth a read (listen if one can get her podcast).

History, history, history.

How little we seem to remember :-)

Patience ... and a sense of humor.

I would call it fascism, as we are witnessing the merger of corporate and state power, just as Mussollini described it. CEO's, billionaires and corporations are lining up to demonstrate their fealty to Dear Leader. Trump may be the figurehead, but Project 2025 is the blueprint for replacing our democracy with a fascist theocracy. It is the product of the Heritage Foundation and the Federalist Society and the GOP is all in.

Fat Donny isn’t on ANYBODY’s side except his own. But the old school conservatives are starting to realize they’r gonna have to choose a side themselves. You can have Trump, or you can have America. You can’t have both, because they’re mutually exclusive.
