"The 20th century taught the world what the death of democracy looked like: tanks in the streets, generals on television, the sudden and violent overthrow of elected governments. But in the 21st century, a new, more insidious model has emerged. Democracies today are rarely demolished by a single, decisive blow. Instead, they are dismantled piece by piece, not by breaking the law, but by systematically weaponizing it.
Princeton sociologist Kim Lane Scheppele has given this phenomenon a name: autocratic legalism. It is a process where leaders use the democratic mandate from their elections to systematically dismantle the constitutional order they inherited. This strategy, Scheppele explains, replaces the "rule of law," where the law constrains the powerful, with "rule by law," where the law becomes a weapon for the powerful. The strategy is tragically elegant, not unlike a retrovirus that hijacks the body’s own immune cells to destroy the immune system from within. Aspiring autocrats no longer move to suspend the constitution; they rewrite it. They don’t shut down the courts; they pack them with loyalists. They don’t cancel elections; they rig the rules to ensure they can never lose.
This global playbook provides the essential context for understanding the “unitary executive theory” (UET), the legal engine behind Project 2025 and a series of alarming Supreme Court rulings. UET is not a principled theory of constitutional law being applied in good faith. It is a political weapon, wielded with partisan selectivity, designed to achieve a concentration of power that is fundamentally at odds with American democracy. It is the American face of autocratic legalism."

Questa immagine mostra caratteristiche sorprendenti. Un solco lineare si estende verso nord-est e poi termina bruscamente (o si trasforma in una stretta cresta). Nel punto in cui termina l'avvallamento, un canale sinuoso ha una direzione est-sud-est, con un andamento quasi ad angolo retto rispetto all'avvallamento. Che cosa è successo per formare queste caratteristiche?

Nel laboratorio dell'Università di Milano stanno crescendo piante che sfidano ogni logica: alte 10 cm, senza terreno, e ruotano su se stesse ignorando la gravità. Non è un esperimento bizzarro, ma il futuro dell'alimentazione spaziale: il progetto Moon-Rice dell'Agenzia Spaziale Italiana sta sviluppando il primo riso per Marte.

Da Milano al lago di Como con la locomotiva a vapore del 1900
Ne ho fatto uno simile qualche anno fa ed è stato figo, purtroppo i bimbi erano troppo piccoli e quindi ho fatto solo poche fermate perché poi se no si annoiavano troppo.

Trenord amplia il suo patrimonio di mezzi storici: è stato completato il restauro della locomotiva a vapore 240-05, costruita nel 1908 dalla Società Anonyme des Ateliers de la Meuse. Dopo l’ultima fase di test e l’abilitazione del personale, tornerà a viaggiare alla fine del 2025 su tratte turistiche. La 240-05 è una delle undici unità a vapore surriscaldato della serie originaria, acquistate da Ferrovie Nord Milano e utilizzate inizialmente per il trasporto merci. Grazie alla sua potenza e versatilità, fu poi impiegata anche per i passeggeri. Su linee come la Milano-Saronno e la Milano-Meda era in grado di trainare convogli da 650 tonnellate a 40 km/h e fino a 870 tonnellate a 30 km/h. Ritirata dal servizio nel 1976, è tornata nelle mani di Ferrovienord nel 1981 ed è oggi un prezioso pezzo di storia ferroviaria lombarda.
Intanto sono già in vendita i biglietti per le corse del treno storico – con locomotori elettrici – in programma tra settembre e novembre 2025. Le partenze sono da Milano Cadorna verso destinazioni suggestive come Como, Laveno Mombello, Asso e Novara. Tutti i dettagli sul calendario delle corse e sull'acquisto dei biglietti sono disponibili su trenord.it e tramite l’app ufficiale.

"Trade letter for the Heard and McDonald Islands" from the White House posted (and written by?) by Justin Wolfers.
🤣 🐧 🐧 🤣
trump's newly announced 50% tariff rate for Brazil has little to do with economics (none of the tariffs or his policies do), it is driven by intimidation and for protecting and promoting fellow authoritarians around the world, in this case ex-president Bolsanaro.
The rate was was 10% in the April 6 salvo of tariff rates.
U.S. has a trade surplus with Brazil, not a deficit, $7.4 billion in goods in 2024, $410 billion in goods & services since 2009.
It's a racket.

Awkward silence after #Trump praises “good English” of Liberia’s president – #video
#IdiotInChief Trump, said Joseph #Boakai, the president of #Liberia – where #English is the official language – had spoken “such good English”during a meeting with African leaders.
Boakai was advocating for US investment in his country & a joint approach to peace & security in the region. Trump asked him where he had “learned to speak so beautifully,” - what an idiot.
