I’m happy to see almost everyone on this platform angered by the attempted implementation of Pike’s death penalty. Lethal injection is one of the most barbarous methods on the dock for this outdated practice. I encourage everyone to keep learning about capital punishment in this country; start here:

In a stunning twist of events, Tennessee failed to execute #ChristaPike tonight - a second botched execution (or attempt) this year. The same physician who presided over the botched execution of Tony Carruthers earlier this year, was also involved in tonight's fiasco.

New at @jssreligion.bsky.social. We asked Christians what actions help build the Kingdom of God on earth: we find the more Christians affirm Christian nationalism, the more they deprioritize charity & justice while prioritizing Christian statism & evangelism. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

The Senate will cast a crucial vote today to advance the CLARITY Act, a massive pro-crypto bill. Crypto is a giant Ponzi scheme that fuels tax evasion, money laundering, and fraud. Call your Senator and tell them to vote NO: (202) 224-3121.

NEW: DHS's Inspector General releases a scathing report about the Everglades detention camp known as "Alligator Alcatraz." The OIG finds that the now-closed camp, violated multiple ICE standards. The OIG also confirms detainees were punished with placement in a metal cage in the Florida heat.🧵

OFFICE OF INSPECTOR GENERAL
U.S. Department of Homeland Security
Staff also reported that time spent in the small metal enclosures is closely monitored, and
detainees are not locked in, even though we observed locking mechanisms on the enclosures.
Figures 11 and 12. Small Metal Enclosures; Observed January 21, 2026

Underneath is a picture of a metal cage that is 4 feet 3 inches wide by 4 feet 3 inches long, and 7 feet 9 inches high. The cage itself is placed on a tiny spot of fake turf, and then surrounded by another chainlink fence with razor wire on top. The cage is covered by a roof, but it's entirely exposed to the outside otherwise, meaning mosquitos and no air conditioning.

We played our worst game of the tournament and Belgium played their best game. But the truth is also that they are just a team with a wider, deeper, more dynamic pool of talent. Been the story of American soccer for many years and still the story today. Gap is closing, but it’s very much still there

What an utterly disappointing way to bow out. Proud of this team for a lot of reasons but questions need to be asked about roster and starter picks. Hopefully this energy translates into actually investing in development and growing the MLS to attract talent because we are going to need it.

this is a great illustration of one of the fundamental insights of democracy — that there is no such thing as "the people" and that majorities are elusive and ever shifting. no election, no decision, is final and treating an election as a final decision is profoundly undemocratic.

This administration never cared about helping people - it has cut food benefits and tax credits, and will now sacrifice legislation to make housing more accessible - all for a perverted "election security" bill that will restrict your access to the ballot box and boost their failing grip on power.

Reminder that Florida voters passed a Constitutional amendment in 2010 banning gerrymandering with 62% of the vote and the Florida GOP just stole the courts and ignored it. By contrast retaliatory gerrymanders in CA and VA passed with the approval of voters. Yet media portrays them as equivalent.
