Blumenthal: "What world is he living in? It is not only contrary to the facts and the truth but utterly despicable. A disgusting betrayal of a country that has bled and fought and died for freedom ... the president's surrender is pathetic and weak."

I did an event in IN a few weeks ago where I said that on 1/6/21 Mike Pence saved the country (for now) by being one of very very few who stood by his principles under maximum threat.

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.

I swore never to be silent whenever and wherever human beings endure suffering and humiliation.
We must always take sides.
Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim.
Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.
- Elie Wiesel

But we have clothed ourselves with Christ’s grace, with the whole Christβ€”β€œfor as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ” β€”so let us spread ourselves like coats under his feet.

Happy Black History Month/Life to all! With the ridiculous yet predictable attempted erasure of black culture in the United States, I’m stepping into this month with this energy.

We got this if we lean on one another and the ancestors. We have been here before and made it. We will do it again.

Make no mistake about it, if this plan for a concentration camp goes through, we will be sending Christ there 30,000 times.

Picture of a baby crying on the left with text in the upper right saying "Trump Just stole food from 1432254 American babies" and Trump smugly shrugging his shoulders in the bottom right.

here's the thing: true, society wide democracy (including in the public sphere w/ worker co-ops) is hard, responsible, adult work. It takes perseverance, grit, compromise, education (formal or informal), and discipline.

Autocracy is a polity for impulsive babies. It is for spoiled brats.
