I contributed to a children’s Bible with The Bible for Normal People. While I often hold my co-religionists’ feet to the fire for their nonsense (and worse), I do my best to also make constructive contributions where I can. I’m proud of this and if it’s up your alley you can pre-order now.

Totally agree with this. Flying a person to a third country that they may never have been to, directly into a prison where they are going to be forced to do hard labor, is not a deportation; it's something else entirely.

My thoughts are that Trump doesn’t care about midterms, and he certainly doesn’t give a flying fuck about the Republican Party. He got his get out of jail free card - that’s all he wanted. GOP Reps and Senators are already borderline panicking about midterms, if that makes you feel any better.

This fight isn’t over. 👀 The Senate and House still have to sort out their differences. 💰 Then comes the budget resolution with actual numbers. ✂️ And after that, the appropriations process, where they have to spell out exactly what they’re cutting.

This is exactly how Hitler talked. It's not even a comparison or analogy, as people claim. It's a direct connection in ideology as well as a similar approach to governance and relationship to democracy. This needs to be how we talk about it. They are the ideological descendants of Hitler.

Again, I think it’s worthwhile to help out with these. Even one seat makes the GOP’s legislative agenda harder to deploy. I recommend phone banking—easy to get started and it helps to talk to folks and at this point the argument for why folks should vote is clear.

Yes, and yet. The danger is worse than this. In short, we are in a fast-moving coup using pretend-legal means. If we do not stop them, it is very likely US science will be ended. Along with US democracy. Start there: “It’s a coup.” More from us later today as well.
