sally the republican party's platform is actively trying to strip the civil rights of a half dozen minority groups.

that is fundamentally uncivil

Sally Jenkins @sallyjenx.bsky.social · Sep 13

All Republicans are uncivil in your view?

Patrick Hruby @patrickhruby.bsky.social · Sep 13

I don’t think that saying harmful things nicely is necessarily a virtue! But assuming it is: did he actually influence Republicans to follow suit? Did their rhetoric become more civil during his rise?

Kirk was not debating he was performing. And he was a good performer, a gifted demagogue who had his finger on the pulse of many young Americans, mostly white and male. Sitting in front of an ecstatic crowd aggressively batting down questions with pithy right wing maxims was a show not a debate.

Venom is an example of a villain who evolved into a hero because he was popular with readers and writers decided to rehabilitate him. By contrast, Magneto evolved into a hero because every decade since Reagan it's harder and harder to pretend he's wrong

Reps. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., and Rob Wittman, R-Va., and Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, have all voted for cuts to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Yet collectively, they’ve routed more than 1,000 constituent complaints to the agency, ProPublica found.

Readers, please tag reporters, news organizations, ANYONE & ask them to cover this.

It could have been far worse.
And without leaders addressing the root causes, the risk remains.

This was an attack on a federal institution. An attack BECAUSE it is Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

This was domestic terrorism.

Why isn’t it getting more press coverage? Some coverage, not enough.

Domestic. Terrorism.

The CDC shooter was fixated on vaccine conspiracy theories. He shot at the CDC and killed a police officer. RFK Jr., through his antivax group, funded the pseudoscience propaganda film PIandemic, a key driver of false vaccine claims. It is beyond inappropriate for him to remain in office.

NEW: This week, 2 politicians AIPAC spent millions supporting came out against sending weapons to Israel.

Germany — Israel’s second largest arms supplier & where someone was even convicted for holding a sign that said “Have we learned nothing from the Holocaust? — said it will stop sending weapons.

Is Israel Losing the Argument – and Its Supporters?

Benjamin Netanyahu may have the unwavering support of Donald Trump, but one-time AIPAC loyalists are beginning to jump ship while European allies are also turning against him.
