If you let the executive deport people to a foreign gulag just by pronouncing the word “terrorism,” then expect to be called a “terrorist” soon yourself.

Happiest of publication days to @rankoutsider.bsky.social. Thrilling and poignant in equal turns, LOW APRIL SUN is a smart, searing take on 1995's Oklahoma City bombing and its aftermath. I'm appearing with Connie several times during March-April. Please come see us in New York, OKC, or Santa Fe.

Today's self-soothing thought: Just remember how things turned out for Rasputin in the end... and for the Tsar who let him in
I can’t believe the Supreme Court said the president was above the law and now the president is acting like he’s above the law.
Kind words from one of my favorite writers, James Reich. #lowaprilsun #booksky #books #newfiction #okcbombing @jamesreich
Trump is taking over the Kennedy Center board, appointing himself as chair. No president has ever done this. The last time the arts were forced to align with government messaging? WWII Germany. This is a power grab, not culture. Speak out. #HandsOffTheArts
