First they came for Michael Flynn and I said nothing, because I'm not a traitor and fascist.
Then they came for Roger Stone and I said nothing, for pretty much the exact same reasons.
Then they came for Alex Jones and I said nothing, except you know, this whole justice thing is pretty awesome.
Then they came for Donald Trump, and I'm not gonna lie, I'm trying not to get my hopes up.
I attended an interfaith event last Friday & the evangelical pastor lamented to me,"America's lost her way because we've forgotten Jesus."
I responded, "As a Muslim I love Jesus too—but when exactly would you say America 'followed' Jesus? Was it during Native Genocide? Slavery? Jim Crow? Denying women equal rights? While invading Iraq?”
Deafening silence.
If you want to show me your faith, first show me your service to ALL humanity—regardless of faith or no faith. B/c faith w/o works is dead.
OK, here’s the thing about this thoroughly bumptious letter.
It’s political, not legal. It’s posturing.
So DON’T ANALYZE IT LIKE A LEGAL LETTER. Don’t try to draw conclusions like a normal lawyer sent it.
