Author of "The Shocking Disconnect" book & study guide - available at Amazon.com/books
Founding Father, James Madison, one of the early American leaders I refer to in my book - The Shocking Disconnect - penned these potent words in "The Federalist" #57: "The aim of every political constitution is, or ought to be, first to obtain for rulers [those] who possess the most wisdom to discern, and most virtue to pursue, the common good of the society, and in the next place, to take the most effectual precautions for keeping them virtuous while they continue to hold their public trust.” Let's apply this in Election 2024!
Here's a full recap of the first day of the 2024 Democratic National Convention.
My latest article with Europinion discusses the lengthy battle within the House Republican Conference to elect a new speaker, including details on the background of the new speaker himself as well as the challenges he will likely face.
🇺🇸 On the 25th of October, ultra-conservative and outspoken Christian nationalist Mike Johnson was sworn in as the new Speaker of the United States House of Representatives. In this article, Lance Moore examines the controversy surrounding the new House Speaker and his radical politics, arguing that “GOP-inspired chaos” will likely continue with Johnson as Speaker. However, Moore hopes that under the weight of the role, Speaker Johnson could become more flexible and move away from his radical politics. Will Johnson hold fast, or will he cross party lines? #usa #mikejohnson #gop #republicanparty https://lnkd.in/dnxv6x9k

Media: In @TheAtlantic's new issue "on the threat a second #DonaldTrump term poses to American democracy": ► Here is the landing page for this special edition, If #Trump Wins. New articles are being added as published. https://bit.ly/3RCItzb ► And here is @JeffreyGoldberg's editor's note, in which he writes: "#TheAtlantic, as our loyal readers know, is deliberately not a partisan magazine. 'Of no party or clique' is our original 1857 motto, and it is true today. Our concern with Trump is not that he is a #Republican, or that he embraces—when convenient—certain conservative ideas. We believe that a democracy needs, among other things, a strong liberal party and a strong conservative party in order to flourish. Our concern is that the Republican Party has mortgaged itself to an antidemocratic demagogue, one who is completely devoid of decency." https://bit.ly/3Teb9PZ
