    Happening in 20 minutes -- I'm talking with some amazing activists about land access for farmworkers & the rural poor, w/ ideas about what it means for housing & climate.

    At , we've heard a lot about how important land access is ... as a prerequisite for the types of alternative farming visions presented. But HOW can new land access pathways be generated in places where norms of ownership appear entrenched? 👇

    24 hours later - the sheer horror of it all lingers. Think about it: the *entire* US Congress was in the Capitol building yesterday when the mob attacked. The *entire* national level leadership of the US could have been.... This is a national security failure of the highest order

    In a divided country, the words “traitor” and “patriot” become interchangeable depending where you stand. Lucan’s epic on civil war uses the terms ‘virtue’ and ‘crime’ to just make this point describing Pompey and Caesar’s fight for power over Rome.

    This is a really good time to re-read this eerily prescient November piece, “I Lived Through a Stupid Coup. America is Having One Now.” Complete searing brilliance.

    This 💯 — why are you all adjourning?

    Every single member of Congress who has called on VP to trigger 25th A should be refusing to adjourn. If the President is so dangerously unfit, certainly you should be available to vote to keep him out of office if he asserts he is not. (See provision on this below).

    I suppose that such a situation predicts a need for constitutional lawyers. Also for historians of treason and democracy. But it also means that representatives in power -- and media and everyone else -- needs to listen what those folks have to say.

    Here's the concern: if liberals are going to make a pivot from preaching compassion, even wokeness, to using acts around treason and sedition, then they're going to need to adopt a lot of new language & quick. Language that hasn't been in their vocab for some time.

    After the divorce, perhaps, the permissive parent, wed to attachment parenting, learns that she needs to set boundaries, enforce rules, create order. The household needs reordering. And lawbreakers need a time out -- even if they're in office.

    One gloss on tonight is that it is a rude -- but inevitable -- awakening for how liberals have thought about themselves for the last century. They have to set boundaries on democracy, if they want it to last. A House that votes 25% against the democratic vote needs rules.

    ...but invoking *boundaries* runs counter to the identity of liberalism and the left for some time now. George Lakoff, in his analysis of L and R, said that liberals were the "permissive parent," conservatives the "stern lawgiver."

    We need boundaries on our democracy if it's going to be protected: the 25th amendment, Sedition Act, and Treason are the historical tools for preserving the institution in its most basic form.
