- L’administration Trump met "en œuvre une politique qui vise à détruire les instruments permettant de produire des énoncés objectifs. Faire disparaître la réalité pour ne plus laisser les faits porter préjudice à la volonté du chef : c’est exactement ce que l’on attend d’une politique fasciste."

- Reposted by Romain LachatFascinating paper on where 6000 global elites went to college. Billionaires, CEOs, heads of state, central bankers, etc. In a word: Harvard. Fully 10% of global elites went to Harvard. Elite US schools are over-represented (23% IvyPlus), but nobody comes close to Harvard. 🧵

- Reposted by Romain LachatI was invited to speak about the upcoming Trump era and share some lessons and optimism. I declined politely. After more than 25 years of researching the far right, I have no more (new) lessons and optimism to share.
- A blog post on our working paper "Quality not quantity: how a VAA affected voting behavior in three large-scale field experiments", with @fresejoris.bsky.social and @simonhix.bsky.social. VAAs do not increase vote switching, turnout, or knowledge. But they improve the quality of vote switching
