Five stories from just the last 24 hours:
1. Minnesota police chief says ICE has been unconstitutionally stopping & pulling guns on *his own* off-duty officers who are brown/black.
2. The Social Security Administration referred two DOGE employees for Hatch Act violations after discovering contacts with a political group seeking SSA data to overturn election results.
3. Canada struck a historic trade deal with China, declaring them more "predictable" than the U.S., then its PM warned of a rupture with the U.S. and the "end of the rules-based international order."
4. Trump quietly pardoned a slew of more white collar criminals, almost all of whom were convicted of fraud.
5. NYTimes released an editorial documenting how Trump has made $1.4 billion (with a "b") dollars off the presidency in his first year in office -- just on the publicly documented trades and transactions.
That's legitimately 24 hours of news, and it's just scratching the surface.

For everyone new to the movement, it's important to realize that wishful thinking and fun branding aren't why Raleigh is now one of the finalists for MLB expansion.
It all starts with the data.
Today's focus? Population👇

BREAKING: Illinois Governor JB Pritzker moments ago, regarding Trump sending troops to Chicago:
“This is not about fighting crime or about public safety. This is about sowing fear and intimidation and division among Americans. It is about creating a pre-text to send armed military troops into our communities. This is about consolidating power in Donald Trump’s hands. What he plans to do with that power now or during the 2026 elections, should worry all of us. When you add to that the Trump administration’s effort to label as ‘dangerous,’ free speech critical of him, WH senior staff calling the Democratic Party ‘fascist,’ the Trump-appointed FCC chair threatening to revoke broadcast licenses and the approval of a merger in order to silence late-night comedians, Trump’s threats to jail political opponents, you can not call this anything but an attack on the Constitution of the United States.”

Why do we have legal minimum ages? To protect kids from at least 4 harms: graphic sex, graphic violence, addiction, & health/safety hazards.
Social media exposes kids to all 4.
@profgalloway and I explain why social media should be age-gated:

In a study of over 600,000 Danish children born between 1999 and 2010, MMR vaccination was associated with a non-significant *reduction* in autism risk after controls.
I fully believe vaccines cause Autism.
It’s another example of crimes against humanity.
And innocent babies, children, and their families are the victims.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Vaccines do not cause autism.
The scientific literature on this is so extensive, that claiming otherwise can only be explained through sheer ignorance, or some sort of nefarious political purpose.

I think there’s few things more telling of how low some evangelicals that have an incestuous relationship w/ political tribalism has stooped than their incessant criticism for Tim Keller posthumously - esp since a lot is aimed at his political engagement not being as extreme as theirs

When I work with pastors who are awakening to the harm they’ve caused, in almost every case they’ve 1) never addressed their own unresolved emotional issues and the harm they experienced, 2) were formed in formation-by-information cultures, 3) were formed in cultures where Christian character was an afterthought and where external competencies were prized, 4) experienced profound loneliness in their lives which extended to their adult lives, and 5) felt like they needed to inspire/demand the respect and attention they deeply longed for and missed out on in their own childhood. – at Grand Rapids, MI

This is the founder of Nouthetic counseling, now renamed ACBC. Jay Adam's work and books are still used and still the framework for the underpinnings of the movement.
When the foundation is rotten, much of the fruit will be too.
Particularly relevant given the TGC article...

In January, @Yair_Rosenberg wrote about misconceptions surrounding anti-Semitism. “It is a conspiracy theory about how the world operates.” on.theatln.tc/FtjTWkN
