Good NYT piece on a pastor who endorsed a candidate at the expense of his job. But what struck me was that his congregation had shrunk by 98% since the 1950s. nytimes.com/2025/08/19/us/…

It's worth noting the civic grace shown by Biden/Harris in accepting an election loss. No claims of voter fraud. No conspiracy theories. No rage or incitement to violent. The peaceful transfer of power will go forward. It's such a welcome/civilized contrast with Trump/MAGA world.
