This week a young woman took to the airwaves. Her name is Riley Gaines. What she said put me in mind of the Nazis who invaded Charlottesville, and corrosive rage that demolishes even those who channel it, among other things.

Arizona's ESA voucher program has become a cautionary tale for the entire country.
Vouchers don’t help poor kids — they just help rich parents who already send their kids to private school.
I asked if Greg Abbott’s voucher scam would give $80,000 to wealthy CEOs.
The answer was YES. #txlege

It's beyond outrageous that a mother would use taxpayer money to buy her kid a $500 Lego set. And even more outrageous? Our leaders don't seem to have a problem with that. azcentral.com/story/opinion/… via @azcentral

By now, many people know about the ties between Moms for Liberty & the Proud Boys. Fewer know about the ties between Moms for Liberty and dominionists. You cannot understand what is happening to our country without understanding dominionist involvement. 1/ buckscountybeacon.com/2023/1…

I’ve been working on my book on child liberation theology, “The Kingdom of Children,” since 2015—almost a decade ago now. As of yesterday, November 14, it is officially published!

I was glad to be intrvwd by @DaviSusan @nprpolitics for her newest article on Speaker Mike Johnson's ties to Christian extremism & the New Apostolic Reformation. This is a very important story, & I'm glad to see it getting coverage in mainstream media. 🧵

“School choice” rhetoric was first used after Brown v. Board of Education by those who wanted to maintain segregated schools.
Freedom of choice meant segregation.
“We can kill” school desegregation explained a MS county GOP chairman by “growing a freedom of choice system.”
School Choice is widely popular in Wisconsin and @WILawLiberty is ready to defend it in court.

We know about 70,000 kids are using ESAs under Arizona’s new universal voucher program. But we don’t know much about them.
A committee is supposed to get to the bottom of all the data we DON'T have about ESAs.
They’re meeting today for the second and likely final time.

AU's Seidel went to W TX A&M to support students fighting the university president’s ban of a student-organized drag show, based on his personal religious beliefs. “Texas is evolving into a Christian nationalist state, a lone star theocracy," Seidel told @RDispatches. Yes it is.
This is what a national figure joining the fight against Christian nationalism at the grassroots looks like: @AndrewLSeidel putting on drag during a talk at a school whose president unilaterally and illegally banned a student drag show fundraiser religiondispatches.org/const…

Please remember: the reason that Republicans focus on 15 weeks vs 12 weeks vs 6 weeks is because it's a lot easier than talking about raped children and cancer patients being denied care, and women going septic

ESAs now being used to train dogs? Sweet! "Cherie Neal used ESA funding to pay for her daughter to go through a six-month, at-home dog training program taught by a trainer who previously worked at Petco and now owns his own business." azcentral.com/story/news/loc… via @azcentral

“We're living in an era where some adults find it appropriate to contact the police over a fictional book involving gargoyles," said Jennifer L. Armentrout, author of the library book that led Moms for Liberty members to call the police in Florida. thedailybeast.com/moms-for-l…

Our latest research confirms what we ALREADY know. Abortion criminalization in this country is racist, classist, dehumanizing, and has lasting impacts on people and their families. Take a look: tinyurl.com/SelfCareCriminal…

And yes, there is empirical, peer-reviewed support for the conclusion that climate deniers, in general, are truly awful human beings:

"Tony Heller (pseudonym Steven Goddard) doesn’t just believe climate change is a “fraud” and a “scam”, but has promoted conspiracy theories about the Sandy Hook school massacre."
Absolutely disgusting.
Climate deniers are often simply awful people.
