“Questioning government, politicians, and the media are all signs of a healthy democracy, one that values free and critical thinking. Trump’s exhortations do the opposite… he is closing his followers’ minds to disconfirming evidence and arguments.” ~@cultexpert

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work.

When I watched March of the Penguins with my dad, we learned that they take turns being on the inside & outside of the huddle so everyone gets a chance to warm up. My dad said “sometimes, animals are better than humans.” #Penguins are exactly the mascot we need to remind us to care for one another.

Teslan-Americans have reached protected status faster than any minority in American history.
DC Metro Police have announced they're investigating the defacement of Teslas as potential hate crimes.

Bishop Mariann Budde gave us a masterclass in holding political leaders to account. In her sermon at the National Cathedral, she didn't prescribe policy, but proclaimed what Christians believe & called for those values to be upheld. More of this! Kaitlyn Schiess on 🎙️Holy Post 654

You bet I read Bishop Budde’s book over the weekend. I have so much respect and appreciation for her vulnerability, caring & humble heart, and taking her calling so seriously.

Inspectors General are key public servants tasked with holding our government accountable. They’re independent, nonpartisan whose work is identifying fraud, waste, & importantly, abuse. Trump just fired them all. Make no mistake: he's purging those who will protect the rule of law.
