Primacy of agency. Even though it is beyond the discussion in politics today, I think it’s central to the problems in the division. It’s important to the right wing, and they believe in the myth of their agency propelling them to their current position. They do not see that this is a false belief.

One thing I feel ppl get wrong about Trump to our peril. He is not stupid. He is uneducated and can sound ignorant because he passed through life by bribes with no true effort or education. He is a suave and dangerous manipulator when he needs to be. Then allowed to be ruthless whenever he wants.

Please read the story “Safety” from recent New Yorker - December 8th. How can we be living in a country so wicked, heartless and mean. So afraid of what? Protect immigrants, defend their rights! God dammit.

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

Just got both my android and iOS version of my app to work on Expo SDK 54. Bit of a struggle and helped out greatly by Claude code integration into VSC. I can share details if anyone is interested.

Just finished the upgrade on expo to SDK 53. Took some work, especially if you use expo AV now switched to expo audio. Also helped with the transition for the Google 16 KB page requirement. Somehow got through all that with the help of Claude code.

This morning, MAGA is trying to rewrite history—claiming Reagan was anti-immigrant and pro-protectionism.
But the truth is, Reagan stood for almost everything Trump opposes.
It’d be a real shame if this went viral.

One of the most frightening things about the Trump reign of terror is looking at those large number of people who are willing to commit the atrocities as members of ICE forces. Also, the ready complicity of law-enforcement and the military/national guard. Those are your neighbors and maybe family.

I am reluctant to bring it up but until our politics and our ethics gets beyond ‘I am the greatest’ rather than ‘I am the luckiest’ we have no chance of getting past the bully society. Even if you are not willing to admit that humans have no agency you should read the first half of Determined - >

I know we're desensitized, but it's important to note, again, that today's events would have led to the immediate impeachment & removal of any president from at least Truman to at least Obama. We're hundreds of miles on the interstate past Richard Nixon's high school prank-level crimes compared to 👇
Trump wraps up a speech to military leaders that represented a major escalation of his effort to weaponize the armed forces into a tool he can use to violently quash domestic dissent. Hard to imagine how anyone with a shred of dignity can keep serving after this, which of course is the point.

The American right needs to realize that Trump is trying to incite violence- both foreign and domestic so he has an excuse to use even more violence. We are so over the line of the autocracy playbook.

Can’t believe we have that many generals. The thing Trump and Hegseth don’t get is that peace is made through strength, yes that is true - but it is the strength of character and society not strength of their war machine.
