He/Him, grew up small town, grown up big city. Educated in theology and politics, which explains why he's really quiet in person. Checks most of the boxes for a progressive with far left sympathies. Striving to be kind. Mostly succeeding.

A lot of people really don't understand mental illness, I think.

I love how, from the headline, I can't tell if I should be cheering because the governor is very sneakily turning against ICE, or groaning because he's turning against anti-ICE protests...

I sadly suspect the latter.

As increasing attention focuses on Stephen Miller's unhinged rants, he risks making himself—like Elon Musk—a toxic figure w/o the loyal fan base his boss enjoys.

While 47 blames the left for violence (statistically false), one wonders how long he will let Miller stomp all over his messaging.
Stephen Miller is the Poster Boy for the Rabid MAGA Movement
The more voters see of him, the more repulsed they’ll be

People forget that these things are tools. And you have to *use* them.

Is this peak gaslighting?

From Reuters:

"'I wish you loved Chicago as much as you hate President Trump' — Attorney General Pam Bondi defends National Guard deployments."

I keep in touch with a vast network of old friends and family. I stay on top of current events. I have made many new friends. I have connected people with things they need. I have talked someone I know out of an abusive marriage. Yes, I have done quite a lot of good with social media. It's a tool.
