“I wrote yesterday about what’s demanded of us going forward: We must be mindfully and compassionately aware of the suffering this incoming regime will inflict, especially to people on the margins who it is all too easy to not see, and all too tempting to simply ignore. Today, I want to offer the slivers of hope I’m holding onto that America can course correct relatively quickly, and before the damage done becomes insurmountable. Only slivers, because this hope could be dashed, fully and quickly. We’re in a time when a lot can go wrong, and where the buffers we had against catastrophe are significantly weakened. While we saw a swing to the right, including in many Democratic heavy regions, Trump actually got fewer total votes than he did in 2020.” (11/07/24)
