It was 1986. Reagan begged Congress to give $100M to the Contras, a right-wing paramilitary. Then he struck Libya. Reagan tried to link the two interventions, to justify it all. And he found that language in a book by a young diplomat: Benjamin Netanyahu. zeteo.com/p/40-years-a...

Red States really dislike colleges and universities because they consistently produce people who don't vote Republican anymore. So they've moving to degrade them, converting them into institutions much more like high schools. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...

The US is not about to have a free and fair election. The state has put its thumb on the scale to favor the ruling party in multiple ways. It's a mostly free, somewhat unfair election. But still one where the ruling party can be overwhelmed by numbers. Hence the term "competitive authoritarianism."
It is atrocious we have to operate under this constant credible and explicit threat from one political party, the fact we keep calling it a “free and fair election” needs some light revising
