Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg on the God Squad Pod
I started following Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg on Twitter years ago and immediately became an enthusiastic reader of her tweets.

Accountability and justice are what I want for my birthday
It’s my birthday week and instead of celebrating so far, I’m reliving the GenX anxiety of an impending nuclear war because Donald Trump decided to bomb Iran. Years ago, Epstein made a prediction that Trump would bomb Iran if he “was cornered like a rat.” That prediction seems to be coming to fruition this week …

Jesus or I.C.E.?
Stephen Miller’s rabid hatred of immigrants who aren’t “white” is playing out on America’s streets with devastating effect. DHS goon squads from I.C.E. and the Border Patrol have been given license to racially profile people as they wreak havoc in cities across the country. Regardless of the legal status of many immigrants, they have been …

No more excuses.
The criminal fascist Trump regime is murdering people. The most recent was an innocent woman who was gunned down in broad daylight in front of witnesses by a fascist ICE agent. In response, the leader of the Department of Homeland Security put a placard on her podium that read, "One of Ours All of Yours" …
Dear Peter Thiel…
You've been in the news a lot lately because you have some sort of monomania regarding the antichrist. As a theologian, I may be able to help you understand some things in order to assuage your seeming fears. I can't tell you precisely who the antichrist "is" because there is no 21st century person who …

Dear men, we need to talk…
It's being said that there is a masculinity crisis in America. There is a male loneliness epidemic in America. Both of these statements are being made a lot on social media and in other forums seemingly on a daily basis. The bitter irony is that the ones making these statements are the ones who are …
No Kings Lancaster
Today was another day of No Kings demonstrations around the country including Lancaster, PA where I live. Contrary to the fascist rhetoric spouted by the likes of Speaker Johnson and Karolying Leavitt there was no violence or destructive behavior here in Lancaster. There was however a great deal of pro-democracy sentiment and an absolute disdain …
