A special archive edition of the Hive [View in your browser]( | [Update your preferences](newsletter=vf) [Vanity Fair Hive logo image]( Can We Celebrate Democracy as It Hangs in the Wind? Happy Fourth of July. It may seem like a strange moment to celebrate democracy, what with democracy itself hanging in the balance this election cycle. But as Vanity Fair has chronicled over the years, preserving the American experiment has never been an easy task. It was tested greatly during Watergate, which remade the public’s conception of government corruption, as Michael Beschloss [recounted]( for the magazine in 1992. The costs of capitalism, too, have left their scars, as we saw decades ago with Marie Brenner’s 1989 [feature]( on Michael Milken, Wall Street’s infamous junk bond fraudster. But few have revealed the defects of democracy more powerfully than Julian Assange, whose legal saga, as [covered]( in 2011 by Sarah Ellison, finally came to an end last week, reminding us of the devastating consequences of America’s military misadventures abroad. The country has come a long way since then—and yet still has a lot of growing to do. After all, the long shadow of white supremacy, as Jeff Sharlet [reported]( in 2020, continues to loom over the GOP, thanks in large part to Donald Trump. For some, the former president’s demagoguery has even brought back fears of a civil war, which, James Pogue recently [wrote](, is fueling a new movement of fringe frontierism that harkens back to ideas of freedom from days past.
