That is exactly what it was like, really hope we have the opportunity to do it in person sometime.

It was such a pleasure to be in conversation with @julieingersoll.bsky.social and @matthewdtaylor.bsky.social for Political Research Associates. You can read our conversation here: politicalresearch.org/2025/10/15/i...

🧵🧵 Texas Republicans have been increasingly open and aggressive about Christianizing America via schools - to, in the words of the state education board chair, center classrooms around "GOD, GOP & USA."

That fight just escalated, and you should pay attention - because your state could be next.

separate from everything, the idea that 2020 was a squeaker but 2024 represents a historical mandate will simply be the death of me

*The Trump administration has defied or frustrated the court in more than one third of the 165 cases where the courts have ruled against them.
*Since April, SCOTUS has granted relief to Trump in all 15 of the emergency applications, writing a decision to explain its reasoning only three times.

No one.

A State Department employee shared with PBS News an image from inside the department. The image includes a piece of paper taped to a mirror with the words, "Colleagues, if you remain: RESIST FASCISM. Remember the oath you vowed to uphold."

Yay! I’ll shoot you an email so we can find a time. (I’m not doing APSA this year.)

Would love to talk with you about this! Maybe we can have a Zoom catch up sometime soon?

Came home to find this had arrived, and I am SO excited to dig in. Massa’s work has been so formative for my understanding of Catholicism in the U.S., and I’m so happy to see he’s written this book.

Read this piece on the "pro-family politics" of the New Christian Right excerpted from @chelseaebin.bsky.social's The Radical Mind, out now from @univpressofkansas.bsky.social. politicalresearch.org/2025/05/15/p...

The @nytimes.com is truly reaching new lows.First, with this article, and secondly, with this sorry attempt to justify race-baiting the Democratic candidate for NYC major that relies on a “tip” from a eugenicist.

I wonder how a fact-based, non-sensationalist media source might report on the man who “tipped” off the NYT…oh, I see…like this: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... US natalist conference to host race-science promoters and eugenicists | US news | The Guardian

ICE is now changing tactics and arresting people who have been granted asylum hearings.
 
This is both a violation of US & international law that demands immediate attention from all New York elected officials & underscores the urgent need for legal service providers to be at all of these cases.

“No right is safe in the new legal regime the Court creates.” –Justice Sonia Sotomayor.

One of the most chilling sentences I have ever read.

What the SCOTUS ruling amounts to is a blank check to an already lawless regime to do whatever it wants with the rest of us. We no longer have even the pretense of meaningful recourse.

If the Supreme Court thinks universal injunctions are unconstitutional, to wait until *now* to say that, in this of all cases, with this of all presidents, is a devastating indictment of both its impartiality and its prudence.

Today I learned they made an audiobook of my book The Radical Mind. You can get it on Audible and GooglePlay and maybe some other places. www.audible.com/pd/B0F3R2MZH...
