If community-building is a bulwark against autocracy, then asking after one another might be a good place to start.

In case you thought you were safe bc you aren't one of his currently identified enemies to kidnap and deport, take a look at this line:
"and remove anyone who is not a net asset to the United States, or is incapable of loving our Country..."
No one is safe when a bully is in charge.

Unsure what to do with your Thanksgiving leftovers? Look to the French
Over the years "leftovers" have made the leap from insipid plates for the lower classes to inspired dishes perfected by culinary artists.

Northwestern’s student body simply doesn’t fit what they agreed to. Good luck getting all those highly intelligent, head strong students to agree to any of this.
