Did I miss any updates on the investigation into the motive of Charlie Kirk’s killer? It feels like that just disappeared as a story, which is strange considering his exaltation within GOP and making his murder into a national event. I’d think we’d be getting hearing about it frequently

Imagine my surprise when Pat from SNL posted hundreds of vile, anti-Semitic, racist, misogynistic, homophobic, Hitler-loving messages.

Correction: I’m told that it was actually William Hendrix, who worked for Kansas Republican AG Kris Kobach.

This deserves more attention. North Carolina wiped out $6.5 Billion in medical debt for 2.5 million residents. Less than 1/3 of what we paid to bail out Argentina.

As we get more reports of ICE thugs detaining Americans, it should be noted that Timothy Snyder made it crystal clear from the onset of ICE raids that NO ONE would be safe.

People tell ICE: "I'm an American." They illegally detain us anyway.

Bc WE already let them erode due process for immigrants.

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

The folks at Fox News continue to promote the false narrative that Trump ordered 10,000 National Guard troops BEFORE the January 6th riots. His then Acting Sec. of Defense testified under oath that Trump made no such request. I included his testimony. RECEIPTS!

The Young Republicans worship the same ideologies as the old Republicans. We should only be surprised that this leaked, not that it was happening in the first place.

ICE is recklessly throwing tear gas into our neighborhoods and busy streets, including near children at school and CPD officers.

The Trump Administration must stop their deployment of dangerous chemical weapons into the air of peaceful American communities.

This idiot keeps bragging about the 20 hostages being released in another country while he's kidnapping thousands of people a day here in America.

Fuck him and the fascism he rode in on.

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

Just been texting friends since asking if they’ve seen it. Never done this before. Those who have are ecstatic. Those who haven’t, I’m annoying, making them tell me their plan to see it. Do you “swear to God” you’ll see it tonight?🎅🏻
