On the assassin of the Minnesota lawmakers, Jon Stewart said he doesn't care why the guy did it or "whether he listened to NPR or FOX News." Then floats funds for mental health and to stop illegal weapons. *Why* he did it tells you a lot! I'm tired of this refusal to accept what's happening here.

Wow Jon Stewart. Tonight he said that although MAGATs have said they don’t want to send the US into another foreign war precisely because they actually want to start a civil war. Dude almost always nails it.

@smith.senate.gov: "I think [Mike Lee] was sort of stunned to be coming face to face with somebody who was really calling him out on his bullshit... The way that people like Mike Lee and others on the right take advantage of the worst kind of human tragedy and political violence... is unacceptable."

A powerful message to opposition leaders, dissidents, cooperators, operatives and allies in Iran, Russia, and around the globe. After you are done risking your life to help us, we will sell you out and screw you over. Because the current govt will use you and discard you.

Men like this saved our lives time and time again to see the US turn its backs on these heroes is beyond something most can describe that anyone on the right would even understand because they support a fucking draft dodging coward who pisses himself when faced with real strongmen.
