I don't really care what the "political consequences" are of fighting for the proposition that *everyone* is entitled to due process before they are removed from the United States and sent to a Salvadoran prison.
It's not really a principle if you only adhere to it when it's politically expedient.

The U.S. will be a superpower emeritus when Trump and Musk are done looting it. Three what-ifs that led to Citizens United and an America in existential crisis. Plus @tiffanymuller.bsky.social on how to fix it, if we can. My latest @thebulwark.bsky.social. www.thebulwark.com/p/the-road-f...
The Road from ‘Citizens United’ to Trump, Musk, and Corruption

If the US had continued to support Ukraine, we may have been months away from the end of the war. The Russians would not have been able to continue to fight for much longer. They were making almost no progress, taking huge casualties.

A few friends of mine expected Democrats to cause riots in major cities after the election and attempt to block the election results.
The orderly process today was the best rebuttal the Democrats could have chosen. It's also a hopeful sign for us all in the long-term. Well done.

Public and political evangelicals seem to associate all forms of "Feminism" with transgender issues, and any other efforts to blur gender differences. Women leading or speaking in church have also been associated with such intentions.
Many forms of feminism, however, are about basic fairness. 1/3

Hey church peeps!
Ahithopel was King David's closest advisor who turned against David and even offered to lead a force to kill David.
Crazy betrayal, right?
Ahithopel was also Bathsheba's grandfather.
Biblical genealogies aren't totally boring. :)

Hang in there. Some days you'll do everything perfectly, and you'll be moving as quickly as physically possible, and someone will still honk at you.

How people who made zillions on innovation couldn't see the huge desire for a platform that provided what Twitter provided, is a bit mindboggling to me.

I purchased Fresh Cauliflower Florets at the grocery store today. The florets were getting black spots already, but cauliflower does that, they were small, and I ate them anyway. Then I noticed the spots looked more like seasoning. Then I magnified the spots with my phone.
At least they were dead.
