Thread: This is the GOP's Chernobyl. They've been ignoring norms and testing the boundaries of democracy the last 4 years, and now they're past the point where they can control it, it's just a matter of time before the core melts and everything goes critical.

Really enjoyed the chat on the @lawfare podcast with @jshermcyber & @EugeniaLostri on Security by Design.
The following analogy occurred to me on the topic of defining the difference between Security by Design and Security by Default.
Security by Default is like installing road signs, traffic lights, and guardrails—they guide and protect users during operation. Security by Design is like building safety features directly into every car, ensuring that vehicles themselves are inherently secure.
Since Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is officially being reported as a favorite to become the VP pick for Kamala Harris.
Here he is pictured from his DUI arrest where he was going 96 in a 55. He then lied to police about being deaf in an attempt to avoid his arrest.
We had genuine hopes about @elonmusk. He was equal parts brilliance and altruism. His intellect and his art neigh indistinguishable from one another.
What we’re getting is the new John DeLorean. A shell of his former brilliant self, looking for any dollar to keep him afloat.
a dynamic that probably doesn't get discussed enough is that the media broadly takes for granted that Trump is malevolent & erratic, so when he is those things it's not treated as news. Biden meanwhile is assumed to be competent, so any gaffe or misstep is covered as a big deal.
Trump's encouragement of Putin to attack NATO allies, Tucker Carlson's pro-Putin propaganda tour, and Republican opposition to Ukraine aid are part of an interconnected pro-Putin agenda that empowers far-right authoritarianism globally.
