“Enemies of the People” - important piece from #JeffSharlet …
“I’m not going to spend much time on what NYT, WaPo, & cable news get wrong. That’s important work, but more pressing now than identifying the unwitting biases & banalities of news media that is mostly in rapid retrenchment, is boosting the work that’ll help us grasp this frightening moment—the better to stop #fascism & imagine democratic futures.”

@GreenFire Speaking of Nixon, Robin Young’s excellent (& quite moving) interview yesterday with Nixon’s deputy assistant, Alexander Butterfield, who revealed the White House taping system's existence during the Watergate investigation, is very much worth listening to…

“The idea that 🇺🇸 must become a Christian nation has apparently led Barr to accept the idea that a man who has called for the execution of those he sees as enemies should be president, apparently because he is expected to usher in an authoritarian Christian state, in preference to a man who is using the power of the government to help ordinary Americans.”

The sweetest little Pacific tree frog (a.k.a. Pacific chorus frog) took up residence in our Purple Heuchera plant a few days ago, and hops out from beneath their favorite leaf to greet me (and/or to enjoy a shower) every day when I water it. (Not sure when I’ll get a chance to clean up the poor plant, which is looking pretty raggedy-ass after the winter — but that’s okay, my froggy friend doesn’t seem to mind!)

“…the strategy [in Ukraine] that matters most for the Kremlin is not the military strategy, but rather the spread of disinformation that causes the West to back away & allow Russia to win… In this case, in addition to seeding the idea that Ukraine cannot win & that the Russian invasion was justified, the Kremlin is exploiting divisions already roiling U.S. politics.”

“A tyrant must put on the appearance of uncommon devotion to religion. Subjects are less apprehensive of illegal treatment from a ruler whom they consider God-fearing & pious.
On the other hand, they do less easily move against him, wrongly believing that he has the Gods on his side.”
~Aristotle, “Politica” bk v (ca. 340 BCE)Trump (who’s composed of cynical artifice, malignant narcissism, greed, & petty vindictiveness) has grafted this grift onto an even bigger one. #TaxTheChurches

#HCR: “Timothy O’Brien of Bloomberg notes that Trump’s desperate need for 💵 makes him even more of a #NationalSecurityThreat than his retention of classified documents made it clear he already was. ‘[T]he going is likely to get rough for Trump as this plays out,’ O’Brien writes, ‘and he’s likely to become more financially desperate with each passing day,’ making him ‘easy prey for interested lenders—and an easy mark for overseas interests eager to influence US policy.’”

“I was not a great student in college. I liked learning, but not on someone else’s timetable. It was this story that woke me up and made me a scholar. I found it fascinating that a group of ordinary people from country towns who shared a fear that they were losing their democracy could figure out how to work together to reclaim it.”

Cozy & rainy here, a perfect evening to try this lasagna soup recipe for the first time. Won’t be the last! 😋
