By the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Trump’s a fascist, but no he didn’t disgrace the National Prayer Breakfast. It *is* a disgrace. Yes it’s “bi-partisan,” if GOP dominated. It is also a private Christian nationalist event produced by an organization tied to 1/2 the dictators of the last 80 years. & literal Nazis.
