Many of you are evangelical or exvangelical former Republicans. (Note: that doesn't necessarily mean you've become Democrats.) If you're willing to share, what was the breaking point for you?
I could retweet every single one of these—but I won’t. Do give them all a read, though. Especially if you’re a pastor or a Democratic politico. You might be surprised.
Thank you for these extraordinary, candid, often painful responses. Keep them coming. You are not alone.

News Outlets, we need to have a talk about how you're going to cover the Mueller Report tomorrow. Your initial coverage of the report filing and Barr's immediate response was embarrassing. Understandable, but embarrassing. To do better, you need a plan. /1
There are a lot of things we don't yet know about tomorrow, but a whole lot that we do. Let's look at them:
• We don't know how much of the report will be redacted, or what percentage of the full report tomorrow's release will include. /2
• We don't know if the release will include the Mueller Team's summaries, which would presumably make drawing and reporting conclusions easier/faster. /3

Hello, #Exvangelical fam. What a fucking week it has been. Are you okay? Are you holding up? It has been... a very sad and difficult time. I have been really grateful for everyone's presence this week as we lost one of our own way too soon. I love y'all a lot.
I decided I was going to do an Elisabeth Elliot thread tonight. I've been working on homework for 2 days straight and I'm tired and cranky but I also missed last week and was cranky about that too. So let's talk some shit about purity culture, I think #RHE would be down with that
As always, but ESPECIALLY this week, if you are not feeling up to this, please take care of yourself. I'm gonna dive into all kinds of nonsense. These threads will still be up later, or never. You're more important. Be very good to yourself, you are loved and needed.

Strange teaser for a “video” release by the Islamic State’s al-Furqan media. Coming soon.
#breaking ISIS produces a video showing Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi alive and talking about the caliphate after Baghouz. He starts with noting that the Baghouz battle ended.
As suspected, reporting about Baghdadi that he was slim & ailing (recurrent in captured commanders’ testimonies, who claimed to have met him) were inaccurate

Another Christian Man Academy Newsletter, another bout of spite. We're talking about school, which is near and dear to my heart as I went to a Christian college and got certified as a teacher. Murray has Thoughts about why boys do badly at school; I, too, have thoughts.
And rage.

How many would vote for David Hogg? I would expect no less, considering today's Democratic party. It's not a party of serious people anymore. Thank you for gathering and publishing evidence.

#Democrats #Republicans @AOC @davidhogg111
Although no evidence was needed for non-Democrats, for those 26% of sensible Democrats, and especially the Democratic-leaning adults, who did not fall for the shiny new object, it's good to see how many other Democrats have become infantile.
#Democrats #Republicans
Maybe the Democratic base is getting sick and tired of the leaders of the Democratic party, who go to DC and never leave until the Grim Reaper comes calling, and would much rather commit a rapturous harakiri with a shiny new object than die of boredom.

Hello from Day 30 of El Chapo’s trial.

Alex Cifuentes is back on the witness stand for more cross-examination. My story on his claim yesterday that Chapo paid a $100 million bribe to @EPN, among other stunning allegations…

news.vice.com/en_us/article/…
The government filed a sealed motion last night to limit cross-examination of witness. Coming on the heels of yesterday's testimony about presidential bribery, we can guess what it's about…
Lost amid the craziness yesterday was some fascinating testimony by Alex Cifuentes about El Chapo's business in Canada.

We heard how the cartel planned to buy homes on Lake Champlain to smuggle drugs by boat, but it seems most of the business was done in Vancouver BC.

1/ For English speakers, here are some highlights from my interview this morning on @RC_ML. What impact did evangelicals have on the American and Brazilian elections? Do they have a growing influence in Canada? I also talked about my #exvangelical life.

2/ After a brief introduction on the role of the evangelical vote in the American election, the question was asked on whether or not evangelicals also had an impact on Bolsonaro's victory? Brazil's population is 210 million people; approximately 56 million are evangelicals.
3/ 70% of evangelicals voted for Bolsonaro, whose nickname is the “messiah.” What motivated evangelicals to vote for Bolsonaro was their sense of being in a "culture war," as well as their stance on abortion and their opposition to LGBTQ rights, etc.
