I turn to literature in these times to steady myself with the words of writers who were scared. Or enraged with righteous indignation. Or saddened by our country’s inability to live up to its potential.
Words to help me resist. I hope they help you.

Despite Trump’s knee-jerk decision to blame the New Orleans terrorist attack on an immigrant, the suspect is actually a 42-year-old US Army veteran who was born and raised in Texas. He was apparently radicalized online.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but the terrorist in the New Orleans attack was an American citizen born in Texas, NOT an undocumented immigrant, and he was even a Veteran of the U.S. Army.
It's only the FIRST day of the New Year, and trump is already saying dumb shit.

In this age of increased terrorist threats and actions, we strongly need an FBI run by seasoned and competent leaders, not political hacks like Kash Patel.

Happy New Year, friends! Remember: That which does not kill us wins reelection and tries again.
Be vigilant and keep a good humor about your every day and spread laughter and good will. It’s the best inoculation against autocracy and idiocy.

Why wasn't Sen. John Kennedy, LA ready to raise "fresh hell" after Jan 6, 2021? Where was the senator when children were murdered at their schools? He is grandstanding at the New Orleans presser to shed doubt on the FBI and Homeland Security. Did he get his marching orders from Russia this morning?

Not looking to politicize what happened in New Orleans in any capacity, however the lead in the investigation is none other than the outstanding men and women of the FBI. The same organization that Kash Patel is nominated to lead and wants to abolish. Think about that for a moment.

Evangelicals overwhelmingly chose Ronald Reagan over Jimmy Carter — a literal Sunday school teacher.
There is no reason to think they will ever return to sanity…
