Freedom to think or believe is something entirely separate from freedom to impose your thoughts or beliefs on others. If freedom is to mean anything, then government should protect not the right to impose, but the freedom from that imposition.

College freshman today were 6 years old in the 2012 election.

A student of mine (age 20) told me after class that he appreciates when I explain how US politics and media were different before, because the Trump era is all he’s seen.

This is what young Americans think politics is. It’s normal now.
I think that folks aren't seriously thinking about the implications of young adults who know nothing other than a country which has normalized MAGA politics, God help us all.

This election result isn't about Dem messaging.

Kamala Harris and Tim Walz formed a balanced ticket filled with character, intellect, and genuine love for this country, and they delivered their vision beautifully and eloquently.

I’m going to say something historians rarely say.

We haven’t been here before.

We haven’t had a near-authoritarian takeover of our government.

Admittedly, we don’t know what comes next.

There’s a wide array of options.

But know that in the US, this is new ground. And none of this is normal.
