- The Trump administration has a lot of awful policies but I’m not sure anything is more idiotic in every possible way than punishing businesses, starving people of power, and shrinking GDP just because you’re obsessed with harming the climate faster to own the libs www.nytimes.com/2026/02/04/c...

- So, remember that Episcopal bishop in New Hampshire that told priests to get their wills in order because “we are entering a new era of martyrdom"? I ran across historical precedent for that today. It's from a radio transcript @rns.org produced about a Lutheran bishop in Denmark… …in 1943.
- NEW: I spoke with this bishop, who offered more context for his (entirely unprepared!) remarks. Turns out other bishops (e.g., in MN) agree with him, and he recalled the moment he told local priests to get their wills in order. “There was a little gasp,” he said. religionnews.com/2026/01/15/t...

- I'm still processing the news. I loved this gig so much. Getting to shout about great books by especially newer authors has been one of the most uncomplicated sources of joy in my life, and I'm gonna be sad about this for a long time.

- These 2 kids detained last week were brought back to MN today. But school officials say many others from the Columbia Heights district are missing. They're not sure if they're in ICE detention or have moved away with their families. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...
- The two children who returned to MN today say they saw one of their Valley View schoolmates at a detention center in TX. This is a child whose family was last in contact with the school on January 9. No one has known where they were until now.

- so I spend up to 80% of the time I work on a story on research and reporting, which you don’t see but get evidence of in the published story—which is not unlike the ratio of political education, relationship building, and planning to the action you see that I’ve seen in organizing and movement work

- Yes. Yes! Thank you
- They are horrified of setting the precedent of rewarding activists. Does not matter what it is, they simply can’t accept a policy being pushed on them even if it polls at 90%

- Abolish ICE is too confusing. What we meant to say is that "no masks should be deployed in an arbitrary and capricious fashion."
