Just a random Chicago sports fan who also happens to be a pastor in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. I usually go by he/him but won't be offended if you just call me "that idiot over there."

Too broke to afford pencils. Tons of cash for a personal army and an eyesore replacing the East Wing.
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

This is racist, eliminationist rhetoric and unbecoming of the office this person claims to fill.
Trump on Somalis: "We're gonna go the wrong way if we keep taking in garbage into our country. Ilhan Omar is garbage. She's garbage. Her friends are garbage."

So on Epstein, the Democratic position should be "Trump should resign." If you are a Democratic elected, practice saying "We demand the president's resignation" in front of a mirror as many times as it takes until the dry-heaving that comes from having a phobia about actually doing politics passes.

So that means this administration is going to move in to Argentina's back yard casita after they "retire," right? Sounds vaguely familiar.
Bessent on Argentina: "The way to think about it is maybe for your first loan, your parents co-signed for it. We basically co-signed."

The thing about the "I voted against this" position Schumer is taking is that either he is trying to mislead Dem voters by implying he didn't support reopening right now, or he has no control over his caucus.

JB Pritzker and Gavin Newsom are doing something new and important: They understand Stephen Miller's theory of fascist power politics, and they've developed a theory on how to combat it. More Dems need to reckon with Miller's understanding of the moment.

Inside Stephen Miller’s Secret Plan to Normalize Trump’s Dictator Rule
He wants to supercharge searing civil tensions to get low-information voters to embrace their inner authoritarian. Exactly two Democrats appear to fully grasp this.

ICE agents are reportedly creeping around high schools in Chicago. And because they are wearing masks, often not wearing uniforms and using unmarked vehicles this means that ANYONE could show up dressed like this and disappear kids off the streets. This is especially dangerous

When I was learning how to be a Pastor, one of my mentors gave me an important piece of advice.
“At a funeral,” he said. “Make sure you always speak last as the Pastor.”
He added: “The Gospel has to have the final word.”
