I’m a regular @msnowreports.bsky.social viewer and like @arimelber.bsky.social but this woman he just had on (missed her name) seems 10 years behind in her analysis.

My late 4th of July take: Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the USA” is the core hymn of the religious cult of American Christian Nationalism, an idolatrous movement currently finding its peak in the unabashed worship of the present occupier of the Oval Office.

I will likely get accused of overstating this. That’s fair. But I’ve thought deeply about this over the last week. And, yeah, that headline is a bit of some clickbait, but note the sub headline. open.substack.com/pub/paulbaud...

If there’s one thing I’ve learned since George Floyd it’s that Law Enforcement reports are not facts.

Not even your loyalty to Trump will save you. He will not only throw you under the bus, if it’s advantageous to him, he will drive the damn bus. Kiss his ring or kiss his ass, it doesn’t matter. You are merely a pawn in his egomaniacal existence. If you haven’t figured that out by now’s it’s on you.

Trump said the problem with Iran using nukes would be the “economic pain”. That’s how small, idiotic, and base he is. Any other olds out there remember the movie “The Day After” and all the economic struggles. 🙄

Incredible night at Target Center tonight for the launch of Bruce Springsteen’s “Land of Hope and Dreams” tour. Here’s the intro and song he wrote for us, “The Streets of Minneapolis” youtu.be/XX6l7IuWKSE?...

Same. Absolutely incredible. It was 3 hours of banger after banger, with a powerful connection to the current moment. A truly amazing evening of music and solidarity.

He literally does not know what he’s talking about. He’s clearly uninformed and just knows the rhetoric to spew to kiss the ass of his hateful fearful base. He’s weak, he’s deranged, and he is irreparably harming this country and its citizens.

Irrev. Paul Baudhuin @irrevpaul.bsky.social · 01/03/2026

I just can't get over Trump praising Hegseth for "obliterating" Iran's nuclear program on Feb 24, and the bombing Iran as a preemptive strike on Feb 28. How is there no accountability for these abject and dangerous lies?

All you have to do to get a Presidential Medal of Freedom is be a good men’s hockey goalie and lick Trump’s boots.

Irrev. Paul Baudhuin @irrevpaul.bsky.social · 24/02/2026

It’s all wrapped up in white male culture as a whole through time in this country. The anger and frustration many of us have toward the whole thing is not fake and fabricated. It’s cumulative. Just one more damn brick in the wall of toxic masculinity. 2/2

Irrev. Paul Baudhuin @irrevpaul.bsky.social · 24/02/2026

It’s not surprising to me that the Olympic Men’s Hockey team was so chummy with Trump and excited about the call and invite. It’s also not surprising to me that they laughed at his unnecessary and on brand sexist joke. 1/2

If my followers have been inspired by the fierce resistance the Twin Cities has put up to ICE, you should make it a point to take a trip here (April through October 😬), enjoy the wonderful things MN has to offer and support our small businesses. It continues to be a really tough time for them.

May not be any consolation, but it’s 25 degrees warmer there than when I was marching at an ICE Out protest in Minneapolis a couple weeks ago? 🤷🏼‍♂️

Last Monday I had an amazing time at Unrivaled Basketball League games in Miami. Such a great sports product. Also, as a Minnesotan and born and bred Minneapolis kid, I came prepared. #AbolishICE

ICE going after Minnesota & Maine. What do they have in common? High Somali immigrant populations. Remember what this is about friends. Trump has been going after the Somali community since before he was even elected in 2016. This is an outright xenophobic, racist, retributive attack. That’s it.

I played this on Sunday in worship, but the recording didn't turn out great. I thought I'd play it again. It's a sort of sacrilege to amend Dylan, but I'm not a song writer and had words. #AbolishICE #ICEoutMN www.youtube.com/watch?v=yasv...

It is by no means over. They are still brutalizing people. There is no victory yet. Not until ICE is abolished, this whole operation is shut down nationwide, and the people responsible all the way up the chain are help accountable.
