Reuters reached out to everyone that Trump or his subordinates singled out publicly for retribution, and reviewed hundreds of official orders, directives and public records. The result: the most comprehensive accounting yet of his campaign of payback.

God the conclusion here is so righteous
Really valuable and honest piece by friend and comrade @nikeshshukla.bsky.social about the anti-immigration protests at hotels this year.
There's a danger in trying to "understand" someone's hate if it's based on the faulty assumption that there's anything to understand in the first place.

Good reading from @rebeccanagle.bsky.social. A moving reflection on how we got to where we are, what it cost and still costs, to create memories that are comfortable for some. As a newly-minted citizen I’ll take this as my Thanksgiving meditation. 🦃

The “punching Arius” story is probably apocryphal, but man, is it a good story!
The more historical legends about Nicholas of Myra are pretty good. Like the story where he punched another priest over heresy.
