The truth is there is no secret plan to defend American democracy. But what gives me hope is when people reject the cool cynicism of despair and choose to act rather than surrender. That is what keeps democracy alive, @marcelias.bsky.social writes.

It’s the naivety for me, hosting panels to declare their shock in a country that ripped Black kids away from their families and sold them as cattle during slavery. None of that moved some of you sufficiently to keep them from absolute power in the voting booth.

We do not fully grasp how damaging the SCOTUS’ presidential immunity decision was. What we know is it was a disaster and the huge damage it has caused is being compounded daily. That is because the result is a collaboration between corrupt justices, a supine Congress and a demented President.
