Links for 5/19/20
Until Rachel Bitecofer confirms your electoral suspicions, rethinking the current Blue Wall is not so important. I trust a good academic model much more than anything done by and for the media (or theologians - even Maryknolls). Paranoia will destroy ya. My worry is that Pence will be sitting President and will not pardon Trump - combined with Warren as VP. That would alienate the never-Trumpers and snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Never Trumpers do not fear the deep state. Indeed, the hollowing out of government is an issue for them. Fearing ideology on the Court is a tired trope. June v. Gee will go the same way as the Indiana case on sex selective abortion - away from any further restriction on abortion. The main difficulties have been on civil rights - but these issues come from the lack of good options. Introducing random selection to college admissions and reenacting the Voting Rights Act prior clearance provisions are political choices - best made without Mitch as leader. The many examples of voter suppression over the last few elections are a good source for any new list.

The dead are well-mourned on MSNBC and will be once the Churches reopen. All things in good time, including the resolution of Zion. Neo-cons may cherish false equivalency, but God does not.
