American Redemption is Our Last Best Hope

In my latest “Hot Type” column for ⁦@BylineTimes, I urge Americans of faith to challenge Trump's Christian Supremacy and redeem the soul of America

1/🧵 bylinesupplement.com/p/american-red…
It never made any sense, how the most religious people I knew in 2016 became the most virulently anti-Hillary Clinton. More shocking was how they became ardent Trumpists. Church on Sunday, and MAGA-hatted all week.

2/
We’ve told the story of how the Christian right embraced an amoral man many times on these pages, but we’ve never told the story of redemption.

IF WE CALLED IT TERRORISM—Lithuanian Minister of Foreign Affairs @GLandsbergis annihilates the weak words we’ve been using to refer to Russia’s terrorism on the West

We are in a war — it has always been a war, because it has always been terrorism.

1/🧵
Lives have been lost — hundreds of thousands in the United States alone — and we have done nothing, because we’ve used weak words.

2/
We have let billionaires who act as arms of Russian intelligence tell us that if we were to do something, we would be censoring free speech. That is a lie.

‘DESTABILIZING DEMOCRACIES’—Canadian PM Names Tucker Carlson and Jordan Peterson as Paid By Russia

In a hearing on foreign interference, Justin Trudeau named names

1/ bettedangerous.com/p/destabilizin…
“We’ve recently seen that RT is currently funding bloggers and other YouTube personalities of the right, such as Jordan Peterson, other names that are well known, Tucker Carlson as well, to amplify messages that are destabilizing democracies.”—Justin Trudeau, October 16, 2024

2/
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accused pro-Kremlin Canadian psychologist and author, Dr. Jordan Peterson, and pro-Kremlin propagandist, Tucker Carlson, of being funded by RT, which the US State Department said is an arm of Russian military intelligence.

THE GRAVEDIGGERS: How Hitler’s Elite Business Supporters Were Executed By Hanging

And other cautionary tales about the fate of those who back fascists from the Keppler Circle files

1/ bettedangerous.com/p/the-gravedig…
As with Timothy Snyder’s Bloodlands, it is taking me months to get through The Gravediggers: The Last Winter of the Weimar Republic by historians Rüdiger Barth and Hauke Friederichs.

2/
Both books are so rich with original source material that I pause to read the books and first-hand reporting referenced, before getting back to each historic work.

1914: THE VICTORY ANGELS OF MONS

How a WW1 legend reminds us to always summon our warrior goddesses — both real and imagined

“I find inspiration in legends of battlefield angels appearing when guns and bravery are no longer enough.”

“There comes a moment in a storm at sea when people say to one another, ‘It is at its worst; it can blow no harder,’ and then there is a blast ten times more fierce than any before it. So it was in these British trenches.”—Arthur Machen, The Bowmen, 1914, London Evening News

I’ve seen angels in the sky and an abundance of feathers in my path.

HOT TYPE: Musk Unmasked

In my latest column for @BylineTimes I investigate Elon Musk's attempts at election interference and why he should now fear being caught out

1/
Elon Musk is scared.

One of the world’s richest and most powerful men told pro-Kremlin mouthpiece, Tucker Carlson, that he’s “fucked” if Trump loses. In an interview with Carlson earlier this week, he brought up the assassination of Vice President and Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris, again, having tweeted about it two weeks ago, and then he questioned how long his prison sentence might be if Trump loses. 

Frankly, he should be worried. 

2/
We used to have more patience for quirky captains of industry, but over time, we’ve grown wiser. Men like Henry Ford and Charles Lindburgh, who did great things in their lifetime, tarnished their own legacies with their anti-semitism and ties to Adolf Hitler.
