I've spent years reporting on how democracies die. And I've noticed something: by international standards, Donald Trump is really, really bad at destroying a democracy.
And that should give us real reason for hope. www.vox.com/politics/410...

Trump is losing his war on democracy
Trump’s power grabs are dangerous. But he’s going about them all wrong — and facing effective resistance as a result.

I wonder how long before the scammers get a AI online to try and scam this anti-scam AI? Then they can waste each others time and consume mobile bandwidth for no value whatsoever. What a time to be alive...

NU KAN VI INTE VETA VAD MUSK EGENTLIGEN TÄNKER…
This is Musk's new pinned tweet.
