Unless and until some kind of compelling legal and moral argument is presented as to why this is a legitimate use of deadly force, this is just…mass murder.

I get why you left politics Charlie, it’s toxic as hell, but god damn we could really use leaders like you who say the truth plainly.

This is what RWers actually think of religion. Useless and worthy of violence unless agreeing with Dear Leader

Carney needs to wake up about Trump and the US, but he’s committed to landing a “trade deal” that Trump would violate whenever he wants because he doesn’t give a fuck. Can’t be trusted, yet Carney keeps going down to Washington to sit there looking like a fool in front of the biggest fool.

Weiss is not a journalist nor is the Free Press hard charging. The Post is a joke

This guy should just step down and go work for AIPAC already. Wouldn’t be as embarrassing for him.

yeah they're just murdering random people on these boats

I think the Trump admin assumed no one would try to find out who the people on the boats they blew up really were

Some say Charlie Kirk did Politics the right way, that he was an authoritative champion of free speech and discourse.

Part of that “Politics” is a 1200-person Professor Watchlist that’s led to harassment, censoring, cancellation campaigns, and death threats.

Politics ‘The Right Way’? How Charlie Kirk’s Professor Watchlist Censors and Harasses Academics of Color

The years-old 1200-name blacklist has ruined professors’ lives, chilled speech, and previewed exactly how the Trump administration is responding to Kirk’s killing today.

It would be helpful because AI is a complete scam that will do nothing but increase electricity rates and take away jobs from people. Evan Solomon is also a moron.

Not to mention nepotism. Ben would not have half the opportunities he’s been afforded in his life if not for who his father was.

As CNN offers daylong saturation coverage of the podcaster’s funeral, I went back and checked to see how CNN covered Melissa Hortman’s memorial on 6/28, where Walz spoke and Biden/Harris attended.

It got about four minutes during the hours it was happening—less than Jeff Bezos’s wedding that day.

I was reliably told celebrating political violence was cause for government reprisal and private sector termination.

This is the third or fourth strike now, has a single Democrat spoken up about this? Need the “opposition” party to wake up to what they’re up against.

the fact that a sitting US president is talking about antifascism being terrorism should tell you a lot about what he thinks his own government represents

Amazing message: it's billionaires and corporations versus the working class. Only three companies control all the tech and media in the country. Banks and big oil influence policy more than the voters who give the libs and cons power.

Seems like there's finally some hope

Canada's true crisis is the everyday emergency of just trying to get by in an impossible economy.

I’m running for NDP leader so we can transform a system rigged for the rich—together.

We need a government that serves the many, not the money.

Naming the enemy right away, the rich. Good start! We need an NDP that’ll fight for working people given our Liberal government is basically Conservative in every way.

Save the swears you clown. Step down and let someone who’s ready to fight step up. You’re going to cave and fund all his illegal bullshit.
