I'm vaccinated am happy to wear a mask to protect my fellow humans.

It's really not hard.

"the administration still believes that vaccinated people play a 'very small' role in transmission, with the unvaccinated accounting for the vast majority of it."
This is a better summary of the upcoming guidance

Since Jan. 6, I haven't stopped thinking about these chilling claims that I wrote about in Unholy, by early forerunners of MAGA, that violence would be necessary to avenge their racist grievances.
The false stolen election claims also energized, and were perpetuated by Christian nationalists, as I documented here:

I wrote the afterword for the paperback of Unholy after the insurrection. You should buy it from your local independent bookstore if you want to understand how Christian and white nationalism came together in Trumpism.

Liz Cheney says that notwithstanding her partisan differences with Dems on the Select Committee, "we are one nation under God."

This is a shot at her Republican colleagues -- who use "one nation under God" as a partisan, nationalist bludgeon.
Cheney: Jan. 6 "threatens our most sacred legacy" (the rule of law).

*Sacred.*
More: will we "throw away the miracle of America?"

*Miracle.*

Cheney is very subtly pushing back on her colleagues' Christian nationalism.

@BostonDukeman @AntheaButler In all my reporting on Gothard over the years, that was the thing that astounded me the most: that people took advice on marriage and relationships and childrearing from a guy who had never been married or even, as far as I could tell, never had any kind of romantic relationship.
@BostonDukeman @AntheaButler But, as I reported in that piece, he was seen by followers as a "modern-day Apostle Paul."
@BostonDukeman @AntheaButler But let's not forget that TLC whitewashed this history with Gothard and the Duggars in the quest for ratings, portraying the Duggars as a pious but cute family rather than followers of a religious extremist who abused people.

NEW from me:

Two Christian right organizers of rallies and marches promoting "stolen election" and "election fraud" lies worked for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

revealnews.org/article/how-th…
The main rally, the Jericho March, held on the National Mall on Dec. 12, helped lay the groundwork for Jan. 6.

The Jericho March organizers partnered with Ali Alexander and Stop the Steal, which was later at the center of the Jan. 6 insurrection.

Today DOJ announced that far-right social media influencer known as Ricky Vaughn was arrested on charges of "conspiring with others" leading up to 2016 election "to disseminate misinformation designed to deprive individuals of their constitutional right to vote."

Recall, in 2016, "Vaughn" was an avid user of the "white genocide" hashtag, as I reported w/ @DavidNeiwert cc @jailongo
