@leahsottile.bsky.social, thanks for the great talk at @willametteu.bsky.social! Ran into a quote today that I think you would appreciate: "Between superstition and fraud there is but a thin line..." It's on page 5 of Mattis' The Theory of Magnetism, which discusses a bunch of magnet superstitions.

More like they know that if they go after domestic terrorists it's only a matter of time before they have to drag people that Trump already pardoned in front of television cameras.
Getting rid of immigrants is obviously more important to them than national security and protecting the public.

📌I can't stop banging this drum: Democrats had a spectacular Tuesday at the polls, the wind at their backs, and basically punched themselves and their voters in the face five days later.

This is political malpractice at best, and out and out brazen capitulation to their billionaire donors at worst.

If Chuck Schumer can't keep his caucus in line when the Republicans are getting absolutely hammered in the court of public opinion, he needs to go. Get on it @merkley.senate.gov and @wyden.senate.gov !
