Jesus is strong, good, kind, and trustworthy. Francophile. Fan of Weird Al, the U.S. Constitution, and dolce far niente. "Be curious, not judgmental." Ex-GOP, politically homeless. Pastor, but not the angry, faux-macho kind.

"Criminals posing as US immigration officers have carried out robberies, kidnappings, and sexual assaults in several states"
Apparently these crimes are to be distinguished from the illegal things the masked secret police are doing with government sanction.

Of all the problems and concerns with this Administration - and there are many - the extrajudicial killing of foreign nationals with no evidence or oversight has to be near the top of the list.

When the work of shepherding leads us to pride, judgment, superiority, or deception, we have forgotten that we are a lamb. A shepherd who is not first a lamb is a dangerous shepherd and has ceased to follow the Good Shepherd.

I'm not saying people who have committed immigration offenses (overstaying visas, entering illegally) should never be taken into custody. I'm saying it should be done without terrorizing the community, and prioritize people who actually pose a threat to the community.

People voted supreme executive power to some of the most ignorant, corrupt misanthropes in our nation's history. And most people just keep shrugging their shoulders. It will never make sense.

It’s incredible that the VT State Senator wrapped up in this hasn’t resigned yet — every major GOP leader in the state has called for his resignation. Fixing democracy requires restoring shame to public life. And accountability. Lots of accountability. vtdigger.org/2025/10/14/v...

My wife just unlocked a new level of chicken pot pie.
Her recipe is already great, but this time she slow-cooked the chicken in a crock pot, shredded it, then baked it into the pot pie. The combo of slow-cooking + shredding saturated the chicken with amazing flavor and juiciness.
