Tom Holland: "Over the course of my writing about Rome, my understanding of the fall of the Roman Republic was massively affected, I now realize, by the events of 9/11 and the wars that followed, and now... by the anxieties around Donald Trump’s presidency." www.rollingstone.com/culture/cult...

"In terms of Barack Obama’s influence on the world, on the destiny of the American Republic, on American political culture and all those things, he seems a tiny figure compared with Donald Trump. Donald Trump is colossally consequential." Interview ↓

All this was foretold when Trump gutted USAID. “We just don’t know how many people have been exposed,” Dr. Tessema said. “We don’t know where they are. They have three weeks — they could travel and we’d never be able to find them.” www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol... via @rollingstone.com

For Rolling Stone, @barackobama.bsky.social writes about how the power of song has shown the country the way forward. "Music has always had the ability to speak to us, and for us, in a way nothing else can."

“Woody Guthrie wrote ‘This Land Is Your Land’ in response to Irving Berlin’s ‘God Bless America,’ arguing that this country belonged to the struggling and the marginalized as much as it did to the privileged and pedigreed.”

"Since the missiles starting flying in February, Trump and his Cabinet members have portrayed the war as a kind of modern crusade, ordained by God through some communication that only they can hear." www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Is Trump creating an American "theocratic republic"? By framing the current war as a divine crusade and casting himself as a "Christ-like healer," he’s embracing the same theocratic absolutism he claims to fight in Iran. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

While Donald Trump threatens, repeatedly, to obliterate the Iranian state, he seems increasingly inclined toward creating his own theocratic republic right here at home. Read @mattbaidc.bsky.social's commentary: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
