This week, the Democracy Index team at The Contrarian decided to do a special Independence Week edition, stepping back to take the temperature of the rule of law, which is an important bellwether for the health of our democracy writ large. It is a difficult time, and we think it’s important to assess it head-on, looking for the strengths and weaknesses in our democracy. You can see our top-level assessments of where we are on leading indicators, and drill down by clicking through the links in our interactive temperature graphic for more detail. The Democracy Index is meant for people with less time to devote to following the news, but we’re finding that everyone appreciates the summary. Sometimes, so much happens in a single week that by the end, it’s hard to remember it all. We draw the throughlines that help you focus on what’s most important. Head on over for a look and remember to share with friends. I can’t stress enough that you are a trusted source of news for the people close to you. Show up at the parade, the BBQ, or the fireworks on Friday, prepared to share information with friends, family, and neighbors. We are in a fight for democracy that isn’t about party. Everyone needs to be informed. The Democracy Index is a free feature at The Contrarian, so everyone can read it. Make sure you tell your friends!
