A quick backgrounder on Nigeria for those who are just tuning in.
1. There's no Christian genocide, and certainly not on the part of the govt.
2. There has been a decade-long Islamist insurgency, mainly in the north but spreading in recent years, that has targeted many, including Christians.

Actually, Benny, the Constitution disagrees.
You don’t need to believe in God to be an American — you just need to believe in freedom. You know, like the freedom to believe whatever you want.
That’s why the founders banned religious tests for public office.
Religious freedom means all faiths — or none.
Tuberville’s fear of Muslims isn’t patriotism. It’s prejudice.

Dr. Paul Farmer believed the moral test of our actions is whether they serve the most vulnerable.

Pregnant Women, DON’T USE TYLENOL UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY, DON’T GIVE TYLENOL TO YOUR YOUNG CHILD FOR VIRTUALLY ANY REASON, BREAK UP THE MMR SHOT INTO THREE TOTALLY SEPARATE SHOTS (NOT MIXED!), TAKE CHICKEN P SHOT SEPARATELY, TAKE HEPATITAS B SHOT AT 12 YEARS OLD, OR OLDER, AND, IMPORTANTLY, TAKE VACCINE IN 5 SEPARATE MEDICAL VISITS!

complete batshit insanity
Congress basically doesn’t exist at this point
As Toni Morrison said, "the very serious function of racism is distraction. It keeps you from doing your work." But she also reminded us never to lose our capacity to be shocked.
Part of my conversation on @ayman.msnbc.com earlier today.
A former sheriff’s deputy has been in jail over a month after he was arrested (a judge signed the warrant) because local law enforcement didn’t like a meme he shared on Facebook in response to Charlie Kirk’s death, showing Donald Trump saying, “we have to get over it,” 24 hrs after a school shooting
The Trump admin says it won’t tap into its $6 billion contingency fund to cover food stamp benefits if the shutdown continues, according to an agency memo
That means roughly 42 mil Americans will not receive critical food assistance from SNAP in November
Rep. Nancy Mace is sending a clear message to every constituent who isn’t Christian: you don’t matter.
We believe every life deserves protection — regardless of religion.
Mace only seems to care about protecting Christians. That’s Christian nationalism.
Mike Johnson is now pretending that it's Rep-Elect Grijalva who is not doing her job, when he's the one shirking his duties.
And even *he* knows this is bullshit. He corrects himself to call her "Rep-Elect" not "Rep" because he actually understands there's a very important difference.

Holy shit! That motherfucker TORE DOWN THE WHITE HOUSE!
On Threads, the usual suspects are telling ppl about to lose SNAP benefits to just start a garden. As a gardener, I had to laugh. You need at LEAST an acre of land to feed a family of 4. Start-up costs are enormous. But yes, subsistence farming on the balcony of your rental apartment is the answer
The same people who lost their minds over renovations to Cracker Barrel are totally fine with the White House getting bulldozed
CZ pleaded guilty to a criminal money laundering charge and was sentenced to prison.
But then he financed President Trump’s stablecoin and lobbied for a pardon.
Today, he got it.
If Congress does not stop this kind of corruption, it owns it.
Thinking about this from a U.S. perspective: If our neighbors have been ripping us off — as Trump insists — then not trading with them must be good for the United States. But when you actually write that down and spend a moment thinking about it, it sounds like an utterly absurd economic strategy 🤔
He’s so “busy.” What is he doing?
Here’s what he’s told us he’s NOT doing.
-reading/watching the news
-negotiating with Dems
-developing a strategy to end the govt closure
- learning the details of the health “plan” he insists Republicans have
-drafting/pushing legislation
What’s left?
