Back on twitter during the first Trump admin I speculated that Sarah Kendzior was being Cassandra-ized. Her predictions weren’t just being ignored - they were being suppressed out of fear she was right and by people in power who wanted to shut her up. And here we are. She knew!

I wish there was some solace for those of us who called this for what it was years ago, but there is not. This is a terrible and devastating time.

Mark Kelly: "For most of Donald Trump's career, bullying people has worked out for him, but not now, because I won't let it happen. President Trump is trying to silence me, threatening to kill me for saying this true, & he sent his secretary after me, & it's not going to work."

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression
The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.

Last weekend, I was thrilled to spend an evening with Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz, Anya Schiffrin and a group of brilliant policy minds they gathered to discuss a range of issues facing our city.

People missing an important point about folks getting fired for whatever they said about Charlie Kirk: Americans are being conditioned to be snitches on their fellow citizens who don’t toe a party line on what is “allowed” to be expressed. And employers are going along. It’s the new secret police

Taking me a while to get through ‘The Last American Road Trip’ by @sarahkendzior.bsky.social because I’m zooming in on Google Maps at every location that the book journeys through. Also had to order ‘Mark Twain’ biography by @ronaldchernow.bsky.social (I was also on a Thai road trip this last week).

Why it’s almost as if the Dems do not actually object to Trump but function as controlled opposition! Maybe people will finally believe it now that they’ve put it in writing…
What’s remarkable about this memo from a prominent Dem data guy is that it…
1) advocates for Dems to not publicly challenge Trump’s deepening descent into authoritarianism
2) gives Trump suggestions on how to better message this dangerous consolidation of power
If you’re mad about Dems avoiding talking about DC, you can blame the Democratic quants, as demonstrated in this memo from David Shor’s Blue Rose Research

Kendzior is properly a writer, but her style's akin to song lyrics, visual art, videography. The best art is undefinable.
