@lkatfield.bsky.social, author of Furious Minds: The Making of the MAGA New Right, joins The Briefing with Michael Waldman to discuss the new conservative movement on the right.
this claim does not reflect to me an interest in high academic standards
just open contempt for the united states as a pluralist and secular democracy. and a reminder that the function of the fiction that the united states was founded as a fundamentalist christian nation is to establish a hierarchy of human worth with white christians at the top
Another reminder: if there exists *any* class of people who don't have due process rights, then *nobody* actually has due process rights because the government can always just say you're in that class.

Really enjoyed reading and writing up some thoughts on @lkatfield.bsky.social excellent book Furious Minds. She brilliantly demonstrates the perils of ideas-first determinism. I was especially interested in how the Christian Right has been corrupted.

Republikanerna ogillar Texasdemokraten James Talarico, och en myndighet stoppade Stephen Colberts intervju av honom. Är det religionen som spökar?

A US-born woman born was confronted by sheriff deputies in Louisiana who were convinced her ID and social security card were fakes. They turned her over to ICE, who shackled her & took her an hour away. Even after a lawyer convinced ICE of the woman's citizenship the sheriff says they did no wrong
