Hace un mes se publicó "Choosing Defeat: The Twenty-Year Saga of How America Lost Afghanistan", de Paul D. Miller. @PaulDMiller2 Su lectura me hizo pensar en cómo las instituciones no fracasan por falta de poder, sino por incoherencia, ego y decisiones mal calibradas. En gestión pública, movimiento no es avance: gobernar bien es permanecer, no aparecer. linkedin.com/pulse/escoger-… #GestiónPública #Gobernanza #Liderazgo #ÉticaPública #PaulDMiller

The UPS cargo plane crash is the first time I mistook a real video for AI. Just had a knee-jerk assumption it couldn't be real.

@USPSHelp How can I get in touch with a human being to search for a lost package? None of your FAQs answer my question and all your automated systems shut me out and do not let me open a case.

.@PaulDMiller2: “For democracy to work, citizens must identify with one another at some level, however basic. A political killing betrays the core of what it means to be an American. It can come only from a nihilistic despair that debate and compromise and democracy itself have failed.”

@Captain_Strongo Public money going directly to a religious institution to fund an expressly religious function.... If it looks like an establishment, walks like an establishment, and quacks like an establishment, it's probably an establishment.

@PaulDMiller2 I still don’t think that counts as establishment, unless they favor specific denominations.

I'm an accommodationist on the First Amendment. The Oklahoma school wasn't "accommodation." It was an outright establishment of religion. Courts were right to shoot it down.

But the Oklahoma school wasn't trying to get public money for a nonsectarian purpose. It was trying to get public money to teach theology, not build a playground. That's why it was good to say no.

Oklahoma was different from the Trinity Lutheran case. Trinity Lutheran was about religious institutions being singled out for exclusion from public resources for nonsectarian purposes (a playground) on the basis of their faith. That's discriminatory.
