The [14th} amendment’s authors, they argue, “hoped not only to prevent a resurgence of secessionism but also to protect future generations against insurrectionism.” It was intended “to bar anyone who has betrayed an oath to uphold the Constitution from becoming President of the United States.”

Good pod with noted historian & Harvard prof #JillLepore this week on Preet's show
She talks about Jefferson Davis and how not prosecuting him & others set the stage for today.
And how the 14th Amendment Section 3 - the disqualification after insurrection stuff - was written by people explicitly worried that Jefferson Davis would "run for president again", so yes it quite clearly IS ABOUT THIS EXACT THING

Why I love Jill Lepore:
“Twitter never has and never will be a vehicle for democratic expression. It is a privately held corporation that monetizes human expression and algorithmically maximizes its distribution for profit, and what turns out to be most profitable is sowing social, cultural, and political division. It’s participants are a very tiny, skewed slice of humanity that has American journalism in a choke hold.”

Eat dirt, users of #facebook and #twitter. Historian Jill Lepore of Harvard fame is not on Facebook or Twitter and says: “I think the social networks will be looked on as having been fairly catastrophic.” #histodons #JillLepore #FutureMediaHistory #MediaHistory #Historiography #FutureHistory

#Krononauts from 1982 in Baltimore MD US (our group) mentioned 4 decades later in season 4 of leading podcast "The Last Archive" by Ben Naddaff-Hafrey and #JillLepore. The podcast examines modern history and truth, and in this episode, a landing party for #TimeTravelers (aka, a #KrononautMoon #celebration).
This is a 2-minute audio teaser for the podcast coming out any day now.

Jill Lepore on the link between WWII Psychological Warfare and Mass Communications
A lot of [psychologists] worked both in the study of voting behaviour in the US and in the study of propaganda in third-world countries trying to prevent them from becomming Communist.
Those things are closely related. They’re both the study of how you get inside someone’s head and change their mind? You have to know what they’re thinking, what you want them to think, and then you have to figure out what message will move them from what they’re thinking now to what you want them to think. This used to be called “psychological warfare”, and after the 2nd World War people were like, we shouldn’t call it that any more, we’ll call it “the study of mass communications”.-- Jill Lepore, 2020
