From Pulling Our Politics Back from the Brink:
The goal of American politics should not be “a world where everybody agrees with you,” [Danielle] Allen, [a Harvard politician scientist] said. “That will never be the reward of life in a constitutional democracy. The reward is the chance to participate in free self-government. If you love that, then you can tolerate the hard work of ongoing, routine contestation with people who disagree with you.”
An ongoing list (updated monthly) of everything President Trump has done (based on what I could find, anyway).
My 2024 reading marathon included my favorite genres of fiction, fantasy, and sci-fi, a smattering of religious history, and several audiobooks and graphic novels. This year, I broke the list down into my favorite books of the year, plus the runners up, followed by the whole list with highlights on my recommendations. I hope you find at least a couple that you can add to next year’s list!
