Beating Trump in court reminds people that there's still a system in place that's supposed to stop him from becoming a dictator. Will it ultimately work? I don't know, but on the pod, @normeisen.bsky.social suggests one way it might.

8. It is difficult to overstate what a catastrophe this will be for the US research and education systems, particular in biomedical fields.
It is deliberate and wanton devastation entirely out of scale with any concern about DEI activities on campuses.
The goal is destroy US universities.

Preparing for a fascist regime can feel scary and paralyzing. This seems like an area where people can take control w/ concrete steps.

I honestly thought this tweet was disproven when he lost in 2020, when he was convicted on the 34 felony counts, when the other indictments came down, etc.
I was wrong. @jessefarrar.com wrote our collective epitaph.

There have been tens of thousands of news reports and opinion pieces written about Trump but you could just put this tweet in a history book and it would cover the last 8 years
