- Coming soon: "Silicon Valley's Scary New Religion." Recorded a podcast today with @xriskology.bsky.social and Rev. Dr. Otis Moss III on the bizarre new belief systems (TESCREAL) underlying the tech fascist project. Can't wait to share it!

- You would think that, if the millions of "illegals" were all "thugs and rapists" as MAGA has been claiming, they would be so busy rounding THEM up that new mothers with no criminal history would be way down the list. Odd.
