Re the nation’s 250th birthday: the American founders would weep to see what has happened to our republic.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last wk.Trump: "Please right your right hand. I pledge to the greatest president in the history of the United States. That loves us so much he can't even breath. That I will go out with my family, my friends, I'll do it any way - I don't care if I'm registered or not, I'm going to try to cheat like hell..."
George Washington abhorred self interested, unprincipled, demagogues.
Yearning for the day, which existed for most of the nation’s history, when Presidents did not suffer from diarrhea of the mouth.

David W. Congdon@dwcongdon.com · 2w agoGreat to see the inimitable @stephenknott.bsky.social at the APSA conference in Boston. His book is on sale here, along with many others. Come stop by and say hello.
An insult to a republic celebrating 250 years as a nation.
The best and the brightest at the helm of the American government.
Each day brings a fresh assault on the few remaining vestiges of national honor.
A portion of my interview with the former Archivist of the United States, Colleen Shogan, on presidents and conspiracy mongering — those who succumbed to the temptation to exploit conspiracy theories and those who did not…. Our current president is the reigning champion.

The new ‘60 Minutes’ hire is having a hard time making a distinction between who is good and who is bad. If you’re struggling with this distinction under Trump, then anything you have to say about the current scene is worthless.
A conversation on presidents and conspiracies with Jeffrey Rosen Emeritus CEO of the National Constitution Center and a contributing writer at "The Atlantic." It's always a pleasure to speak to someone who has closely read your work. youtu.be/ljcTO-GFAyM?...

This criminal act of election interference was allowed to go unpunished by the Supreme Court in ‘Trump v. U.S.’ A stain on the rule of law that should forever tarnish the reputation of the Roberts Court.
This is antithetical to everything a republic stands for….
Only if it’s a Rushmore of presidential losers. He can join Andrew Johnson, James Buchanan, and Dick Nixon.
My 20th year teaching in the Masters in American History and Government program at Ashland University. These educators are engaged in teaching civics and history, and I am truly grateful for their vital work in our nation’s classrooms. Increased civic awareness is essential to saving our republic.
A good review of my latest book from the ‘Washington Independent Review of Books.’
