Man, @donmoyn.bsky.social's substack remains one of the best places to get concrete political science insights into our authoritarian consolidation. His guest authors today talk about secret police. I will definitely be getting their book open.substack.com/pub/donmoyni...

The level of organizing & engagement happening in communities all across the US on a daily basis is beyond anything I have seen in my lifetime. (This is not counting actual protests, whose volume these days is also unprecedented).
