The most impressive politician by far who I'd like to be our next President is a man with no party. His former party is now out-and-out Nazi. His political leanings are far from mine. But he's the person I want to lead us out of the mess the GOP has created. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...
Intriguing perspective on MAGA from "The Last Republican", former GOP Congressman and impressive American patriot Adam Kinzinger open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...
This is why Adam Kinzinger is called "The Last Republican". All the others sold out to anti-American bigotry and hate open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...
And still the Republican Party in Congress worships him and stands (in silence) behind everything he does. Watch how they vote; that's where their beliefs lie.
My new "Devlin's Angle" for the MAA dropped today. Fortunately, the USA did not drop nukes on Iran (which was clearly the only way they could obliterate 90 million human beings, as our President threatened). maa.org/math-values/...
Unfortunately, this appeals to his base. Roughly 1 in 3 Americans. And Trump knows it. So do the Congressional Republicans, who continue to support him.

Remember, the entire Congressional Republican Party is still staunchly behind Trump. Not a one has voted against him, let alone remove him from office, which they have the power to do. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWjG...
Collins will disapprove in public and then she will vote for the bill.
Maine deserves better.

What made today's Republicans not only anti-American, but pure evil? This is what my (aging) generation thinks about it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=itcb...
Good piece by former Republican Congressman Adam Kinzinger. He wants to believe his former colleagues are still loyal Americans. The evidence says otherwise. Republican politicians & voters long ago abandoned either the party or else any shred of human decency open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...
Truth Social: “Robert Mueller just died. Good, I’m glad he’s dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people! President DONALD J. TRUMP.” This is who the entire Republican Party supports as POTUS. To them, he has charisma. Others think differently. No Democrat President ever had such staunch support.

One of the best TV news programs in the US today is LBC. Rule Britannia, anyone? 🙄 www.youtube.com/watch?v=GyJH...
What a massive fail by the #BBC. This is the prestigious Reith Lectures series they have censored. When senior positions are given to weak people, democracy can crumble fast. www.youtube.com/shorts/ZHhbb...

Two Kansans are suing in state court over the new law invalidating trans people's licenses & deputizing bathroom bounty hunters
And they're arguing on state law grounds alone
Kansas's anti-trans law violates federal law too, but federal courts can't be trusted

NEW: President Donald Trump and his MAGA allies are not letting a shooting war in the Middle East distract them from their social media campaign for passage of the SAVE America Act. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
I guess this is the State of the Union message that matters to everyone on the planet except the Republican States in what was once a union.
I see my birth nation, the UK, still believes that no one is above the law, even royalty. I wish the country that invited me to move here in 1987, and where I have been a citizen since 2000, believed the same. The US used to be such a nation. It pains me that such is no longer the case.
I'd simply ask for Congressional Republicans to give a crap as what's happening to blue states right now could easily happen to red states during a subsequent administration. This is a, frankly, dangerous precedent.
Normal people would be prosecuted and jailed for a hate crime.
Trump gets off with an 'Ooops' ????
In memory of the 37-year-old Minneapolis residents Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good, ordinary American citizens who agents of our federal government publicly executed recently. (There are least six others who ICE agent have murdered this year so far.) Since September 1991, the MAA has afforded me the enormous privilege to express my personal opinion in its monthly members communication; the print magazine FOCUS from September 1991 to December 1997, and the online e-zine (currently the MATH VALUES section of the MAA website, originally MAA Online) from January 1996 until today. (My goal/hope is to continue to March 2027, when I turn 80; you’ll soon be free of me, dear MAA colleagues.)
Hull-born Stanford mathematician @profkeithdevlin.bsky.social has been writing a monthly column about mathematics for the Mathematical Association of America since 1991. This month's piece is in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good:
