This stain on US military will be difficult to remove...

EPIC response.

Vance Luther Boelter has been identified as a suspect in the early morning attack that killed House Democratic Leader Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, at their suburban Twin Cities home. The FBI said it is offering a reward of up to $50,000 for information leading to his arrest and conviction.

97% of extremist-related murders in the U.S. in 2024 were linked to right-wing extremists. It’s not a political movement anymore - it’s a hobby for failed men with too much testosterone and not enough brain cells.

Terry Moran worked at ABC for 28 years. Now, for calling Stephen Miller “hateful,” (which he 💯 is per his own family), ABC fired him to appease an authoritarian hypocrite who ran on “free speech.” This will have a chilling effect on all journalists. Fourth Estate fails. Authoritarianism advances.

"Latinos for Trump" - that's just like turkeys voting for Thanksgiving. Sending thoughts and prayers.

Headed to my daughters ball tournament; I’m glad my wife is driving. I fear I might have pulled the steering wheel out when I learned of this: ABC has fired Terry Moran over the Stephen Miller comment. ABC is not a friend of democracy.

Go to vacation in America they said.

So deeply heartbreaking. The number of lives these grants represent is staggering.

We're walking right into it. No one appears to have any idea how to stop it. We know where it's headed. Martial law. The end of democracy. No more elections. A waking nightmare. I promise to amplify anyone offering legal, workable solutions. I haven't found any yet. And the left is leaderless.

Still true.

Don't ever forget this.

Yesterday, Trump said, "They get inches from their face and then spit!" about the L.A. protesters. He says he'll send the Marines. When insurrectionists tased Michael Fanone, causing him to have a heart attack, Trump called them peaceful protesters and pardoned them. He PARDONED THEM.

Oh how the tables have turned

True story bro.

Via @btnewsroom A protester was shot in the head as Los Angeles riot. Police fired rubber bullets, during an anti-ICE protest. Community members say police refused to call an ambulance despite her bleeding. Her current condition is unknown.

I’m old enough to remember he resisted sending troops for this

From a week and a half ago: “As of Monday, the model shows, about 96,000 adults and 200,000 children have died because of the administration’s cutbacks to funding for aid groups and support organizations. The overall death count grows by 103 people an hour.” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Republican is a synonym to hypocrite. This tweet is real. Kristi Noem, the Governor of South Dakota, posted this statement on her official X (formerly Twitter) account on February 6, 2024.

Tasted like fascism.

I’ll pick Stupid Things To Say for $800, Alex.

It's not only that we have forgotten the historical lessons of the 1930s, raise of fascism, the Holocaust and World War Two. We've stopped incorporating them in the popular culture, allowing the fascism to sprout again. Pink Floyd's The Wall is the creation of the 1980s... we have been warned.

Christian nationalism brain rot…

Now everyone will go look up the book and it will make NY Times. #sighs #booksky #writingcommunity
