Civil war is a shorthand for the varied threats of violence that MAGA deploys in response to its political, legal, and cultural failures.
last week with Donald Trump, Tucker Carlson repeatedly asked Trump if “they’re going to try and kill you.”
It’s only natural to focus on the word “kill” in that query, a word that Carlson employed to conjure visions – and perhaps the reality — of political violence. Carlson, after all, is in the demagogue business, for which hatred and bloodshed are profitable lines. But the operative word in Carlson’s question was not “kill.” It was “they” – that pervasive yet curiously unspecific constant in the rhetoric of political degenerates and con artists.

How one man fought a patent war over turmeric : Planet MoneyBack in the 1990s, Dr. Raghunath Mashelkar was in his office in New Delhi when he came across a puzzling story in the newspaper. Some university scientists in the U.S. had apparently filed a patent for using turmeric to help heal wounds. Mashelkar was shocked, because he knew that using turmeric that way was a well known remedy in traditional Indian medicine. And he knew that patents are for brand new inventions. So, he decided to do something about it – to go to battle against the turmeric patent.But as he would soon discover, turmeric wasn't the only piece of traditional or indigenous knowledge that had been claimed in Western patent offices. The practice even had its own menacing nickname - biopiracy. And what started out as a plan to rescue one Indian remedy from the clutches of the U.S. patent office, eventually turned into a much bigger mission – to build a new kind of digital fortress, strong enough to keep even the most rapacious of bio-pirates at bay.This episode was produced by Willa Rubin with help from James Sneed and Emma Peaslee.
