I’m waiting for parenting to get easier. In the meantime, I love books, pop culture, faith, law and politics.

How many years is an anxiety attack supposed to last?

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Ohh, what’s the word? Is everything super cool over there? They happy? I open my NYT app and some eyelashes fall out.

The thing is that people who care about the law realize how goddamn fragile it is.

No one should want to live in chaos. JFC. Places where law is determined by who has the most money or power are far worse than anything you disagree with in the US.

It’s better to pay taxes than bribes.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

I’m gonna listen again tomorrow I laughed so hard, and also threw up a little.

Composure, Saints! This is a vital witness to our faith in Christ in any era of chaos.

Upon waking, let us meet with Jesus and trade our fear & anger for his courage & compassion.

Rely on God.
Read Scripture.
Be brave.
Pray valiantly.
Act like grownups.
Help the hurting.
Love defiantly.

Oh, one more thing.

Healthy leadership isn’t mean. It doesn’t make people pawns in a self-centered, self-absorbed power game.

Jesus would never.
