This is a terrific thread on keeping democracy alive.
How to keep democracy alive in 2025: 1. Be Brave. Avoid helpless/hopeless talk. Authoritarians want you to feel powerless because it makes their work easier. Courage, faith, and optimism are essential. Fascism feeds on cynicism and pessimism. Starve it.

A new Senate Judiciary Committee report found that Clarence Thomas failed to disclose two luxury vacations bankrolled by billionaire Harlan Crow — even after he amended his past disclosure filings. He's a national disgrace.

Larry Hogan never shot for the stars as governor, makes sense he still doesn’t know where they are today
Last night, beginning at around 9:45 pm, I personally witnessed (and videoed) what appeared to be dozens of large drones in the sky above my residence in Davidsonville, Maryland (25 miles from our nation’s capital). I observed the activity for approximately 45 minutes. Like
