I still think it’s backwards that every mass shooter owning an AR-15 is considered a right while their victims’ healthcare is considered a privilege.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

200 days into Trump's term, where are we?
In the race between Trump's authoritarianism and efforts to resist it, authoritarianism is ahead. And while there are hopeful signs from the public, the chance of effective resistance is, for now, being fatally undermined by the capitulation of the elites.

The American media have enabled Trump’s behavior by how they sanewash every action he takes after the fact and frame opposition as naysayers rather than as messengers of fact. He expects the media to sell his transgressions in the most favorable light

Resist means resist. It means you don’t go to his White House picnic. It means you don’t attend any of his speeches. It means you don’t work with him on any legislation. If you truly believe he’s a fascist threat to America, you oppose him at EVERY turn.

I’m not going to get any sleep, because it is too much fun seeing all the posts mocking Chris Cillizza.
Over the weekend, someone defaced my Tesla.
I talked about why making EVERYTHING political is dumb -- and why it's driving us further and further apart.

My dad grew up poor in rural North Dakota, fought in WWII, and got a college degree because of the GI Bill. But he never forgot that black veterans were denied the same opportunity.
A colleague at Stanford’s business school used The Stanford Daily to argue—poorly—against DEI. The piece was riddled with historical errors and left one searching for fact, so I broke my public writing hiatus to respond.
I hope you’ll read and share the piece.
