@Faytuks They did not in fact do regime change

@Buster_ESPN I would simply extend the best pitcher in baseball to keep pitching for me. How is that an impossible choice?

@mikealbertus @ForeignAffairs Thank you for this piece, it’s been a great help in my upcoming work on climate change and great power politics

This is what happens when you overprioritize STEM at the expense of the humanities and social sciences

[Zach W. Lambert @ZachWLambert]

I’m listening to Republican strategist Sarah Longwell on NPR talking about public opinion of Trump’s tyrannical posture and she just said:

“When I ask voters in focus groups if they think Donald Trump is an authoritarian, the #1 response by far is, ‘what’s an authoritarian?’”

Talked about this in my civil rights lecture last week

[Chris Towler @blkprofcct]

Black population of said cities:
Philadelphia ~40%
Detroit ~78%
Atlanta ~47%

Black people. He wants to throw out the votes of Black people who swung PA, MI & GA to Biden in 2020, and look poised to do the same for Harris in 2024.

Not sure how this is love of the neighbor

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

Nancy Mace is now describing migrants as "pedophiles"

[The Atlantic @TheAtlantic]

Donald Trump’s accusations about Haitian immigrants in a small Ohio city relies on a web of falsehoods that Christians should reject, @drmoore writes: “We should step back, forget about our dogs and cats for a moment, and ask who abducted our consciences.” https://t.co/fBtGiyzIqi

[kate shellnutt @kateshellnutt]

Pastors in Springfield, Ohio, said the social fabric of the community has been ripped apart, with real-world consequences for locals and immigrant neighbors in their own churches. Most Haitians there are Christians.

Annual reminder that twitter polls are not real polls for numerous reasons

[PatriotTakes 🇺🇸 @patriottakes]

Trump claims he won the debate because of Twitter polls

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

Warnock on Morning Joe: "As a person of faith, I take great offense with the way in which [Trump is] weaponizing the symbols of faith ... the Christian church is going to have to come to terms w/ the fact there is no full accounting of Trumpism without reference to the church"

[Anthony Rodin @SLACIRProf]

Christ is Woke now apparently

[AF Post @AFpost]

Straussian billionaire Peter Thiel blames Wokeness on Christianity, slamming it as a religion that “always takes the side of the victim.”

“This Woke religion, which I would interpret as a certain extreme form of Christianity.”

So we political scientists have to study the treatment effect of this tweet apparently

@Mariners @BJW002 @Bryce_miller9 Sadly, no hits on the album

[Haley Byrd Wilt @byrdinator]

The leader of the free world deciding not to seek re-election as he was facing criticism from members of his own political party is actually the opposite of a tyrant, bent on remaining in power, murdering political dissidents

[Armand Domalewski @ArmandDoma]

both of these are Donald Trump

[Anthony Rodin @SLACIRProf]

Man, I just want one normal week. One.

[Anthony Rodin @SLACIRProf]

First words on the page today, working through the introduction

[Anthony Rodin @SLACIRProf]

I’m going to start a thread on my writing process as I begin work on my manuscript, partly for accountability, partly for posterity.

[Anthony Rodin @SLACIRProf]

Today, partly to distract myself from the news, I’m working on identifying possible publishers. This entails looking at publishers who have works in the same area my book idea is in, reading proposal guidelines, and identifying contacts
