Before taking office, Trump pressured Republicans to kill a bipartisan immigration bill. Now, despite GOP majorities, no immigration legislation has been advanced. For the president and his supporters, immigration is not a challenge to compassionately resolve but an opportunity to cruelly exploit.

Don't congratulate John Roberts or the Supreme Court. Congratulate Rick Woldenberg, the Chicago-area leader of Learning Resources, an educadtional toy company that had the courage to sue the president of the United States to save his family business. As well as everyone else who stepped up.

Crazy that 40% of White evangelicals still think Trump acts ethically in office (though I'm glad it's now below the majority). But just as damning is that White evangelicals have the highest % of folks who support Trump despite doubting his ethics. "Who cares about character if we can win?"

A word to myself: keep resisting ICE while also staying open to mercy towards the human beings behind the masks. Their dehumanizing efforts do not justify my own dehumanization of them in return.

Alex Pretti's gun is like Renee Good's car: irrelevant to the central fact that they were murdered by ICE. ICE wants us to debate whether Pretti should have been carrying because that avoids the central fact. Pro-carry, anti-carry--that has as much to do w/ his murder as his fashion choices. Zero.

Possibly unpopular opinion, as an Army veteran, who never once drew my .45 in anger: The two Federal agents who shot people dead were not brave but cowardly in those moments. True bravery involves discipline, restraint and self-sacrifice, not what they did.

I agreed with very little that Scott Adams had to say through his various platforms, and I feel a lot of what he put forth was outright harmful. That said. I am not loving people crowing gleefully about his death. Stop. Just, stop.

I think the worst thing about being an evangelical Christian in today's USA is the feeling of isolation. It's so hard to understand why the people that claim Christ are nodding along with everything going on. It's not preached against, not called out, not stood against.
