Wow, buckle up.

The early vote just came in Tarrant County, and Democrat Taylor Rehmet is up 56% to 44% in the special election for a Texas state Senate seat.

This is a seat that went for Trump by 17%. This would be a huge upset.

This is already 45K votes.

I may have a stroke.

Someone said protests don’t belong in church and it took every ounce of self-censure within me not to say “Deborah you are literally a Protestant.”

A PROTESTant.

I assume they think Luther was nailing Bed, Bath, & Beyond coupons to the door.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Some thoughts:

1. The deadline for nominating a person or group for the Nobel Peace Prize is Feb. 1.

2. History professors are qualified nominators.

3. The people of Minnesota have been awe-inspiringly peaceful in the face of state violence.

4. He would be so mad.

Had an intriguing editorial discussion recently: how did people in the past talk about 'minutes' when they didn't have watches or standardised times? How does that affect your thinking?

Come down an Elizabethan/Jacobean rabbit hole with me.

ICE agents ate at El Tapatio in Willmar, MN, then came back hours later and detained the workers who served them. Turning a meal into surveillance isn’t public safety it’s intimidation. Remember private businesses can refuse service to ICE agents!

Biology is so wild. It doesn't respect the rules we make up.

We all know children inherit genes from their parents. But it turns out mothers also inherit genes from their children!

And it can help them. (But it can also hurt them.)

13 November 1926 | A German Jewish girl, Suzanne Marion Rothschild, was born in Hamburg. She emigrated to Belgium.

On 4 August 1942, she was deported to #Auschwitz in the first transport of Jews from Kazerne Dossin in Mechelen. She did not survive.

After 13 years, Mississippi Democrats have broken the Republican Party’s supermajority in the Mississippi Senate.

Democrats flipped two GOP-held Senate seats and one House seat in the special elections.

Hey GOP Senators, you can block calls from any contact during certain hours using your "Do Not Disturb" feature to create a schedule.

Just helping where I can.

If Washington won’t lead, Minnesota will.

Trump is holding our tax dollars hostage and cutting off the funding that keeps 440,000 Minnesotans from hunger.

I just announced $4 million in new funding for Minnesota’s food shelves to help our neighbors weather the storm.
