Progressive Presbyterian pastor from Williamsville, NY. I'm interested in getting to know folks who are searching, wondering, questioning. I like exploring the human condition and learning from all perspectives. I'm comfortable with life's ambiguities.

For the Tompkins County DA to go from "I recognize the reality that it can take years of therapy & healing for victims of sexual assaults to fully process & understand what happened to them" to "the evidence did not support the filing of criminal charges was legally correct" makes my blood boil. 1/

25th Amendment? We can’t even get network news to air it or even mention it. It’s a massive national media coverup to hide the fact the we have an addled president.

If the 1st rule of the courtroom is "Don't ask a question you don't know the answer to," the 2nd rule is likely "Don't smear a witness as a perjurer and a dirtbag because you don't know the difference between the Hawks and the Hawkeyes."

My grandparents survived the terrible abuse of the Federal Indian Boarding School Era. That trauma wasn't isolated to the past—it was carried down through my family all the way to me. And there are so many families like my own across Indian Country.

The detention system in the United States has grown faster than anyone planned for it. Since January 2025, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, ICE, has driven its capacity up at a pace that basic order could not keep up with.

American health care creates no incentive for pharma companies to cure diseases. When you cure a disease, the customers go away. There's no money in that. Curing patients is not a sustainable business model, per Goldman Sachs. news.slashdot.org/story/19/02/...

This is an entirely new phenomenon because before the vaccine, most women who survived measles were immune because they had it when they were young. But now, idiots who refuse to get vaccinated are giving birth to babies with measles. Two babies have died. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
nbcnews.com
America had wiped out measles. Now babies are infected at birth.
Congenital measles has rarely been seen in the U.S. That’s changing as vaccination declines and more pregnant women become infected.
