Had great intvw w/former Senator Ben Nelson (D-NE) on his book “Death Of The Senate.” He once joked w/@HillaryClinton at their swearing in that she had to have scripture reading prepared. GWBush used to call Ben Nellie and Obama called him Bennie @usafmc https://t.co/fBqR1wdqeY

Madeleine Albright used to say that autocrats and fascism often come to power through elections. But in Turkey, we are seeing a challenge to autocracy brewing through elections. Not a bad thing for other autocrats in waiting to see. @semafor https://t.co/InibpSXMAm

The whole George Santos situation reminds me of the movie Catch Me if You Can starring @LeoDiCaprio and based on the real life story of Frank Abagnale. Read more from @kadiagoba in today's @Semafor Principals. And in OGT @RepAdamSchiff goes off on Lebowski https://t.co/JLtDDCjl3w https://t.co/O04COaxWUS

Megathreats: Ten Dangerous Trends That Imperil Our Future, and How to Survive Them

Nouriel Roubini
Steve ClemonsSteve Clemons

So I have read every word of this new book MEGATHREATS by ⁦@Nouriel⁩. It is not for the faint hearted, and there are no promises of good endings. Policy realists need to read this. Policy fantasists just ignore this note. https://t.co/jMAhgn0LAf

This is funny. Disney’s @RobertIger & composer John Williams were Queen Elizabeth’s last knights. But she died in process. Iger will be ‘knighted’ in a ceremony by her son King Charles III. https://t.co/QXArgKpZue
