  4. A quotation from Euripides

    MEDEA:                     Let no one think of me
    As humble or weak or passive; let them understand
    I am of a different kind: dangerous to my enemies,
    Loyal to my friends. To such a life glory belongs.
     
    [ΜΉΔΕΙΑ:μηδείς με φαύλην κἀσθενῆ νομιζέτω
    μηδ᾽ ἡσυχαίαν, ἀλλὰ θατέρου τρόπου,
    βαρεῖαν ἐχθροῖς καὶ φίλοισιν εὐμενῆ:
    810τῶν γὰρ τοιούτων εὐκλεέστατος βίος.]

  10. January book club theme: ⛸️ Skate ⛸️- January 10, 2026 - I was expecting this to just be a cheesy romance novel, but it's a deeper story than just romance. It's a tale about self-confidence, hope, perseverance, and the grueling work that goes into making your dreams come true. The obstacles in this novel are real and relatable. Well done.

  11. Trump's Weird Definition of
    '#Alien #Enemies'

    Trump's invocation of the
    "Alien Enemies Act" was dubious from the beginning.

    That rarely used 1798 statute applies when
    "there is a declared war"
    between the United States and a
    "foreign nation or government"
    or when a
    "foreign nation or government"
    has "perpetrated, attempted, or threatened"
    an "invasion or predatory incursion against the territory of the United States"
    (even when a war has not been declared).

    In those circumstances,
    the AEA authorizes
    "restraint, regulation, and removal"
    of "natives, citizens, denizens, or subjects of the hostile nation or government,"
    provided they are at least 14 years old.

    In a proclamation published on the evening of Saturday, March 15,
    Trump implausibly claimed that members of the Venezuelan gang "Tren de Aragua"
    qualified as
    "alien enemies" under that definition.

    In addition to dubiously asserting that Tren de Aragua had "perpetrated, attempted, or threatened" an "invasion or predatory incursion against the territory of the United States,"
    the proclamation counterintuitively implied that the gang was a
    "foreign nation or government."

    Trump further stretched the language of the statute by implying that alleged Tren de Aragua members were
    "natives, citizens, denizens, or subjects" of the gang.

    His initial use of the AEA was clearly designed
    💥to avoid judicial review altogether.

    By the time he published his proclamation,
    the Department of Homeland Security was already in the process of removing detainees and sending them to CECOT.

    Lawyers at the American Civil Liberties Union got wind of the pending proclamation
    and filed a complaint on behalf of five detainees in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.

    They also sought protection for a class consisting of similarly situated detainees,

    and they filed an urgent motion for a temporary restraining order (TRO),
    noting that the plaintiffs were
    "at substantial risk of immediate, summary removal from the United States"
    under the AEA.

    In light of "the exigent circumstances," #James #Boasberg, the district's chief judge, promptly granted a TRO aimed at
    "maintain[ing] the status quo until a hearing can be set."

    That hearing convened via Zoom at 5 p.m. that Saturday,
    which was still three hours before Trump's proclamation appeared on the White House website.

    In response to the concern that airplanes bound for El Salvador were about to take off,
    Boasberg repeatedly asked Deputy Assistant Attorney General #Drew #Ensign what was happening.

    Ensign never gave Boasberg a straight answer.

  12. A quotation from Wendell Berry

    What could be more absurd, to begin with, than our attitude of high moral outrage against other nations for manufacturing the selfsame weapons that we manufacture? The difference, as our leaders say, is that we will use these weapons virtuously, whereas our enemies will use them maliciously — a proposition that too readily conforms to a proposition of much less dignity: we will use them in our interest, whereas our enemies will use them in theirs.

    Wendell Berry (b. 1934) American farmer, educator, poet, conservationist
    Essay (1999), “The Failure of War,” Citizenship Papers (2003)

  13. A quotation from Charles Mackay

    You have no enemies, you say?
       Alas, my friend, the boast is poor;
    He, who has mingled in the fray
       Of duty that the brave endure,
    Must have made foes! If you have none,
    Small is the work that you have done,
    You’ve hit no traitor on the hip,
    You’ve dashed no cup from perjured lip,
    You’ve never turned the wrong to right,
    You’ve been a coward in the fight.

    Charles Mackay (1814-1889) Scottish poet, journalist, song writer
    Poem (1884), “No Enemies”, Interludes and Undertones, Poem 121

  26. On a sweltering evening in the thumb pad of Michigan’s mitten, a self-described prophet promised 700 Christians under a crisp white tent that they were about to #cheat #death.
    They would do this by winning the swing state for Donald Trump.

    The reasoning was simple:
    Each of the Christians assembled would soon feel a call to become a #poll #watcher or to knock on doors or to organize their church
    —to take part in some act that would aid the Republican presidential candidate.

    ⭐️And that act would keep them safe, the prophet said, because God would not call them home before they had completed the task He had given them.
    🔥“The greatest argument you have with death is an unfulfilled assignment,” the man, #Lance #Wallnau, told the crowd

    This was the third stop of the “#Courage #Tour,”
    a traveling worship spectacle passing through key battleground states ahead of the upcoming presidential election.

    Organized by Wallnau, a sixtysomething Texas-based evangelical with a salesman’s persona,
    the three-day event was a marriage of the religious and the political,
    a swirl of prophecies and PowerPoints and speaking in tongues.

    It was a call to arms, a campaign strategy session, and
    —above all
    —an honest-to-God old-fashioned Pentecostal tent revival.

    It was also a showcase of the power of a rapidly growing, militant right-wing movement in American Christianity.

    Wallnau is a major leader in a coalition of Christians who believe that Trump is prophesied to play a critical role in the nation’s spiritual reformation
    —that the former president is destined to be a catalyst for the next Great Awakening, even.

    These Christians see Trump as a modern-day Cyrus the Great,
    the powerful empire builder and nonbeliever who is credited in the Old Testament with returning the Jews to the Holy Land.

    They believe that under Trump’s protection, American Christians will rise up,
    defeat their #demonic #enemies,
    and take their rightful place of power in the country.

    This belief in a Trump prophecy has only grown stronger among the faithful since the former president survived an #assassination attempt in July.

    It is so strong, in fact, that anything that could stand in Trump’s way
    —democratic or otherwise
    —is perceived as a force of #evil that must be battled on a spiritual plane.

    This has already played out once:
    After Trump lost the 2020 election, Wallnau held nearly daily rants about the #stolen #election on Facebook Live;

    he decreed in one online prayer call that 💥God would overturn the election results.

    He spoke at a major rally for Christian election deniers in Washington on Dec. 12 of that year,
    warning that there was “a backlash coming”
    and announcing that it would be the “beginning of a #Christian #populist #uprising.”

    He and other right-wing Christian leaders circled the Capitol while blowing #shofars and praying for the election to be overturned,
    drawing clear parallels to the biblical story from the Book of Joshua in which the Israelite army marches around the city of Jericho,
    blowing horns until its walls crumble and the Israelites conquer the city and #slaughter its inhabitants.

    The event, which preceded a night of #political #violence in the nation’s capital, drew thousands of attendees in what was widely seen as a precursor to the Jan. 6 riot.

    10 alarming things #Trump has promised to do in a second term

    by Judd Legum
    and Rebecca Crosby
    Dec 12, 2023

    1. Trump says he will "abuse power" and be a "dictator" on "day one."

    2. Trump says #ElectionFraud in 2020 gives him the power to "terminate" the Constitution
    [Britt: "Sometimes elections in fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by #SmearCampaigns against or even assassination of opposition candidates, use of legislation to control #voting numbers or political district boundaries, and manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their judiciaries to manipulate or control elections."]

    3. Trump says he will issue "full pardons" to #January6 #insurrectionists
    [Britt: "Rampant #Cronyism and #Corruption"]

    4. Trump says he will cut funding to schools that cover subjects he believes are "inappropriate"
    [Britt: "Disdain for #Intellectuals and the #Arts"]

    5. Trump says he will legally erase trans people and ban them from military service
    [Britt: "The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional #gender roles are made more rigid. Opposition to #abortion is high, as is #homophobia and anti-#gay legislation."]

    6. Trump says he will end birthright citizenship by executive order
    [Britt: Identification of #Enemies / #Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause"]

    7. Trump says he will impose a new 10% tax on all imported goods
    [Britt: "Powerful and Continuing #Nationalism"]

    8. Trump says he will investigate NBC and MSNBC for treason and potentially remove the company from public airwaves
    [Britt: "Controlled #MassMedia"]

    9. Trump says he will demand anyone convicted of selling drugs get the death penalty
    [Britt: "Obsession with #Crime and #Punishment"]

    10. Trump says he will order the arrest of all urban homeless and relocate them to federally-run tent cities
    [Britt: "Disdain for the Recognition of #HumanRights"]
