A ham & cheese sandwich in Spain & Latin America, “mixto” also refers to anything mixed like my TX/PR heritage - also my life philosophy and ramblings.
The Megan Kellys of this regime assumed that their narrative playbook of max disdain would work again, as it has for the past 9 yrs. But it collapses when you have a common knowledge moment like this. Like Biden’s debate, we all saw what we all saw, and the courtiers are exposed.
This is not immigration reform or tightening our borders.
This is our American democracy imploding.
Forget performative flag burning.
This is incinerating our Constitution by unrestrained, violent - worse, sanctioned - gunfire.
This is madness.

The parable of the Good Samaritan speaks to us first about God’s way of seeing us, so that we in turn can learn how to see situations and people with his eyes, so full of love and compassion. https://t.co/2ISYXYVHKU
This “leftie mask debate” feels like diversion.
We don’t mask because it’s our identity - we mask because we understand SarsCov2 better than the average person. That’s all that needs to be said.
On one hand, we already know who is (or who is likely to be) on “the list.”
On the other, we need to prepare ourselves to lose some heroes (or guys we thought were better than this).
🧵1/ What did the DoD learn after giving > 1.3 million troops mRNA COVID shots?
Spoiler: the vaccines were safe, highly effective, and kept units mission-ready.
Let’s dive.
Guadalupe.
This river begins northwest of San Antonio (my hometown) and runs southeasterly until it empties into the Gulf of Mexico. From Kerrville to Gruene to Victoria. Austin just to the north; San Antonio to the south.
Those of us from the San Antonio area were baptised as true Texans in this “hidden river,” fed by hill country rain. Ben & I, along with family & friends, tubed the Guadalupe the day before our wedding. My aunt & uncle, who raised my cousins in Gruene, hosted our river rat crew.
Our societies are too enslaved to market logic, and everything risks being subject to self-interest and the quest for profit. Volunteering is prophecy and a sign of hope, because it bears witness to the primacy of gratuitousness, solidarity, and service to those most in need.
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
This tweet attempts to criminalize, legislate, and adjudicate by tweet.
Zero due process.
If you wonder how far is too far, this is it (again).
The freedom to speak & assemble is righteous and the cornerstone to ... everything.
