This Baptist church in Woodstock, Georgia runs citizenship and English classes. Christian churches even in conservative areas continue to embrace diversity. Trumpism is a secular movement.

I hate this condescending whataboutism. Yes Bret, if the interior minister of Japan was a right-wing religious zealot using US taxpayer money for ethnic cleansing, they would probably be better known.

One of South Florida's most prominent pols, @ShevrinJones, defends @AngieNixon and lays into @CBSNews for its original characterization of her remarks.
Shame on you, @CBSNews! You misrepresented @AngieNixon’s answer, then offered an editor’s note instead of an apology. You demand accountability from everyone you cover. Hold yourselves to the same standard. Angie deserves an apology. Your audience deserves accurate journalism.

It’s somewhat hilarious to me that people point out the 🏳️🌈 in my bio as a “gotcha.” I know it’s there. I put it there. Why? Because I want the LGBTQ+ community to know that I—a Christian pastor—am an ally. That is more important to me than any “gotchas” from the theobros.

Even after CBS News(max) deleted their tweet mischaracterizing this @AngieNixon answer about Cuba, @Fla_Pol publisher @PeterSchorschFL attacks her and accuses her of a “walk back” 🤔

Some Brazil elex notes (1/2)
• Flávio Bolsonaro has withdrawn his legal action against the election result
• Flávio's party has officially conceded
• Brazil's electoral body (run by a Bolsonaro ally) has declared Lula the winner
•.Lula won by 4.4m votes
• Only 40,000...

Yesterday was another stronger-than-expected day for Democrats in Florida's in-person early vote. The electorate will continue to get more Republican as the GOP did backload its turnout (moving from R+6.9 to R+7.6 yesterday), but the question is just how much further right it gets.
At this point, I think we're probably looking at a high-single-digit final Republican electorate by total party registration (after considering mail, IPEV, and Election Day votes). Nothing insane like what we're seeing in North Carolina for Democrats, but still a meaningful improvement relative to 2024.
That would keep Jolly within striking distance; he has a tough path, but certainly a plausible one. It would require a really strong performance with independents and other swing voters although he'd be helped by the national environment.

My own novel, Nuremberg, Mississippi, reminds me that Dietrich Bonhoeffer would have had some thoughts on pastors like @howertonjosh. Just last week, he demanded that Texas Christians “grow up” and vote for Paxton.

@AngieNixon says she trusts Cubans' lived experiences on this. Just like I don't know what it's like to be Black, she doesn't know what it's like to be Cuban. She is listening to our stories, and we have told her it's a dictatorship. She clearly says she believes us.
It’s disappointing to have to say this, but @CBSNews, this is a serious failure of editorial reporting. I clearly state in this clip that while I have not personally been to Cuba, I have spoken with Cubans who have described it as a dictatorship, and I believe them. To claim I declined to answer the question is categorically false. That is not journalism. It is misinformation.

Marco Frieri has not tweeted once about Ashley Moody since his fav Vindman lost.
Is Marco pro-Trump, because he does not seem to want Angie Nixon holding Trump accountable.

So far, remarkably high turnout by young Black voters in Georgia.
