When Team Trump and allied media leak the names of FBI agents involved in the search the day after an attack on the FBI, it's worth remembering--violence and threats are organic to the Trump movement, and they have been from the beginning: https://t.co/IijXhIipoh
I've taken a look at the bipartisan Electoral Count Reform Act and have reached the following sophisticated and nuanced conclusion:
We're complete idiots if we don't pass this thing.

@Skarpantre It was definitely interesting to read a cross between zombies and Star Wars 😆 But, I'm a sucker for the whole "derelict in space" trope, which was the main reason that I picked it up.
@CynthiaDawnRoy Is... Is this spy talk? Are you secretly signaling someone? Oh no, I left my one-time code pad in my emergency off-site grab bag--what's the proper way to complete the challenge-response???
Uh... "My cat's hat looks debonair"?
Every American adult should watch this.
Tens of millions, however, *still* don't understand the reality of January 6 in large part because the news outlets and personalities they trust are deliberately lying and/or withholding the plain truth about Trump and that dreadful day.
Context: Some framing SBC sexual abuse investigation process as a progressive takeover. When protecting the sheep from predators is liberalism, the world’s gone to hell in a handbasket.
Lemme tell you how this works: all you have to do to thwart change in conservative Christian ranks is to frame it as a progressive takeover. “The liberals are coming! The liberals are coming! Woke alert!” When our fear of liberalism exceeds our fear of the Lord, our god is power.
If you still refuse to believe facts stacked Himalayan high before your eyes and insist the independent group hired to conduct the investigation is part of a (liberal!) human conspiracy or demonic attack, you’re not just deceived. You are part of the deception. If you can go on
I’m reading through the SBC report from Guidepost. I expected it to be bad, but I’m stunned at the sheer scale of the evil it exposed. It’s staggering. Read every word of this, from @drmoore: https://t.co/LGy0SlmoXQ
When Jeremiah and Ezekiel and Micah condemn those who say “peace, peace” when there is no peace, they are talking about people who see abuse and injustice in their communities and say “but look at all the good we’re doing.”
Never describe the view of an opponent in a way he or she will not own. Rather describe their view so they say, "I couldn't have put it better myself." Only then should you proceed to refute the view. If instead you caricature your opponent-- you persuade no one.
@CynthiaDawnRoy That's awesome 😁 In college, that was a common question I asked / was asked; it prompted me to reflect on the Holy Spirit's work in my life and heart.
I miss having that regular reminder. I think I'd be slow to adequately form an answer, at present 🤔
