Trump, Tucker Carlson, “literal spells,” and the Antichrist. @virginiaheffernan.bsky.social & I talk about why some people around Trump describe his influence in supernatural terms, while I see a psychological process of influence, loyalty, sunk cost, and coercive control 📹: youtu.be/X82cRXo6j88

I’m excited to share that Christine Marie & I will be doing a live stream together on Friday 1st May at 2pm EST, where we’ll go deeper into the documentary, share insights, & answer your questions directly. Do you have any questions you’d like us to cover?

We’re leaving our veterans out in the cold! NC Candidate David Clayton and I ask why thousands of homeless veterans aren’t receiving benefits. This is a profound ethical failure of a nation that claims to “support the troops.” Watch here: youtu.be/XFbs1Qqec_0 @empathytour.bsky.social

Robert De Niro remains one of my heroes for speaking boldly against Trump. And when he calls people to take to the streets, I want to remind everyone that the next No Kings Day is March 28th! It needs to be the largest national and international protest against Trump & authoritarianism. 📹@reuters

People often imagine a cult as something extreme, obvious, or impossible to fall into. But many cults begin with community, healing, belonging, spirituality, love bombing, and emotional connection. Footage from @zolita on TikTok (she did a series and I highly recommend watching it!)

Forcing survivors to “forgive”? Maria Esguerra and I take on a dangerous myth: leaving a cult does not make an abusive parent or caregiver safe. Survivors should not be pushed to center the people who harmed them. Watch the full video here: youtu.be/E5M_7w_PmZw

What’s this about Trump saying he wants to create a company with his sons, like an Amazon for g*ns, to make it really easy to buy them? At the highest level, this is about demoralization and destabilization. Video credit: @aaronparnas YT: somoslosverdaderosunificac4038

This is what mind control looks like in real time. When people are more concerned with staying in favor with a leader than telling the truth that’s not independent thinking. That’s undue influence and mind control.

The Unchosen does a powerful job demonstrating the classic cult warning signs I’ve studied for years! Much of it aligns very closely with my BITE Model of Authoritarian Control. Click here cultexpert.myflodesk.com/bitemodeland... to learn more about what undue influence looks like! 📹 @netflix

Comparing life to a chocolate chip cookie recipe oversimplifies the complexity of being human! We’re not meant to surrender our integrity & be blindly obedient to leaders, prophets, or institutions. We are meant to ask questions, reality-test our beliefs, & use reasoning abilities we all possess

The interview Stephen Bartlett did with Tristan Harris was incredibly rich and ended on a hopeful note. But hope only matters if we act. We need ethical structures and a clear understanding of undue influence before AI systems begin shaping people’s realities at scale.

Abughazaleh: One of the most egregious aspects of this is Hegseth saying that this conflict that we started is ordained by God. Is bombing a school full of schoolgirls ordained by God?

ICYMI-The #Cubs beat Paul Skenes and the Pirates 7-2 to split the series. Colin Rea was able to give up only 2 runs in 5 1/3, Ian Happ and Seiya Suzuki combined to drive in 4 runs, the bullpen pitched 3 2/3 scoreless innings, and the Cubs took advantage of some Pittsburgh errors
