I already know in advance that a handful of people will complain about me posting a screenshot from The Emperor, but that is outweighed by the fact that I think people need to know about authoritarian threats. Sorry in advance to those who don’t want to know what’s happening.

Makes me sad re-reading this amazing letter from ex-Watergate Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox sent to high school seniors in 1994 after they asked him “What should Americans learn from Watergate?” 20 years later in ‘94.
His answer is remarkable—unfortunately things didn’t work out so well in 2024.

What a gut punch.
Never again can it be said that “In America, no one is above the law”

“In 2022, YouGov asked “What percentage of Americans do you think are ___?”
The results were hilarious.
Trans: 21%

Jewish: 30%
Black: 41%
Live in NYC: 30%
Gay or lesbian: 30%
The errors are off by orders of magnitude. The trans estimation by 2,000%.”
