Hey yall! I'm an author, minister, & lifelong Knicks fan. I mostly post about basketball, politics, culture, & theology. I recently wrote a book to give disillusioned Christians a vision for following Jesus that's not bathed in political idolatry, patriarchy or Christian nationalism. a.co/d/0RWk5Gv

It's refreshing to read honest journalism about this man. His actions speak volumes about the idolatry that got us here.

When a sitting president releases a video of himself defecating on the American people, that’s not “satire.” It’s a public humiliation fantasy and an erotic performance of dominance.

Chicago, Illinois, 2025:

"They had the Black people in one van, and the immigrants in another van."

"They was bringing the kids down, had them zip-tied to each other."

"I kept asking, 'What is the morality?' One of them laughed. He said, 'Fuck them kids.'"

📣 OK, with ~3 hours to go before the midnight government shutdown, I'm going to go through ALL 50 STATES +DC ONE BY ONE to remind everyone of how many Americans healthcare Democrats are fighting to save (and this is just #ACA exchange enrollees; don't forget about Medicaid).

Please bear with me.

NEW: Air Force jets are doing ICE flights to Africa with transponders turned off, making them nearly un-trackable.

This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is deporting people to African countries like Ghana on military flights that are nearly un-trackable.

I can't stress enough the importance of local/state elections that can impact you instantly.. ballot initiatives, Senate/House Reps, judges, MAYORS, sheriffs, schoolboards, county executives/councils, etc. Do your research, know who/what you're voting for. #LRP

The Trump administration is not denying the existence of far-right violence; they are telling us it is useful to them.

I wrote about the backdrop for DOJ removing a report on far-right violence from its website days after Kirk was killed—that it is part
of Trump’s efforts to create political space in which far-right violence can flourish. newrepublic.com/article/2006...

It was no doubt inconvenient for the current administration for two of the claims Trump most often deploys to legitimize his hold on power-that immigrants are flooding into the country and voting illegally —were named by a DOJ-funded study as two of the more common narratives that far-right actors use to legitimize their violence. (When asked why this report was removed, a media affairs manager with the Department of Justice responded to The New Republic, "No comment, thanks.")

What's being "protected" is not "free speech" but rather the RIGHT for white men to be white supremacists in public without any criticism or any consequences. I hope that's clear.
