I am so angry that they are bound and determined to stick with this blood libel.
They would burn this country down, just so they can rule over the ashes.
There is no pit deep enough for them!
Agreed. Not everything about that statement was great, but he did what so many Republicans are too cowardly, cynical and opportunistic to do: call for calm, tell people to "log off, touch grass and hug their loved ones."
I'd like to acknowledge Utah Governor Cox. He has offered one of the most balanced and measured responses from the Republican party we have seen for a long time.
luigi mangione murdered a healthcare executive and opposed "wokeism." i don't know why people insist that killers need some coherent ideology. most people don't even have coherent wardrobes, let alone a coherent worldview.
I have words for this:
Pure evil.
Well considering that they're behaving like a bunch of gelded eunuchs, I think the answer is pretty obvious.
This woman is a performative, evil hypocrite in the worst way.
And I pity her for that. How empty, how devoid of character does one have to be to excuse murder?
The left overwhelmingly has condemned the killing of Kirk and offered condolences to his family in this terrible time. The right has declared “war” and demanded revenge before we even have a suspect in custody.
BRASILIA, Brazil (AP) — Brazil's Bolsonaro sentenced to more than 27 years in prison after Supreme Court panel convicts him of attempting coup.
Trump is not really opposed to political violence. He just thinks only he is entitled to wield it.
Guys, I know you all still cling to conspiracy theories about Merrick Garland bc ... well, you watch too many TV lawyers who knew fuckall about the investigation.
But this is a fact. A trial was scheduled to happen 3 years after Jan6, just like Bolsonaro got.
Who killed it? John Roberts.
I don't know if anybody would rationally support their own death... but he certainly fanned the flames and never expected a backdraft.
Phang: Part of the reason the FBI has been showing this level of dysfunction is evidenced by the lawsuit filed yesterday by former FBI officials—what it shows is that the FBI has basically been hollowed out…
This is how you do it.

We must end the scourge of gun violence in America.
We also need to have honest conversations about the ways internet platforms profit from fear, hatred, and division.
Both are vital to the future of this country.
It won't come from big media, IMO. It's going to come from the independent outlets where actual journalism survives.
And that's why I think it will ultimately be what does him in. Because the truth is coming out, one way or another.
Good morning.
That day 24 years ago was truly terrible, but I wish we could be as united as a country as we were on 9/12.
God bless America.
Decrying violence against political opponents rings a bit hollow when you pull Secret Service protection from your political opponents.
One can practically taste the bloodlust and desperation from him.
And I suspect that's what will bring him down, in the end.
100% true.
It's not fun being on this crazy vessel. Part of me is torn if it can be saved, or if it's simply too little too late and I should start to get off.
Yep. He's pretty transparent to anyone paying attention.
He will do ANYTHING to distract from that list. Anything.
Because it truly could bring this regime of evil and lies to its knees.
Hey @wsj.com : you gonna retract your bullshit, thinly-sourced reporting or nah?
I think that's more than fair. We can condemn the works of the man without dehumanizing him... even if he would not have extended us that same courtesy. If we dehumanize as we are dehumanized... then we've lost.
I think frankly we'd ALL be well-served to take a breath and walk away for a bit.
"What if" yourself to oblivion if you'd like, WE HAVE NO IDEA WHO THE GUY IS THAT DID THIS AND WHY.
Even if the shooter had no political reason to do what they did, Kirk was still assassinated in the middle of a public forum. That by itself makes it, sadly, political by nature.
Saddening how so often in history, sheep vote for wolves under the illusion that wolves will somehow keep them safer.
