With every new hellscape that I read about in different states around the country every day, I'm reminded of this post that I wrote on Nov. 10, 2024.

It continues to be more and more relevant.

The guy following him is a fkn legend. 😂

Matt Novak @paleofuture.bsky.social · 3d

I’ve seen just one counter-protester at No Kings San Diego. He’s got a Trump 2024 flag and this guy has been following him around for probably an hour playing Benny Hill and circus music.

Last week Jesse Watters spoke to man named Eric who claimed he was formerly a member of antifa. Two years ago Watters interviewed Ramon "Mundo" Mendoza, a former Mexican Mafia member. Some folks thought the men looked similar. This is a side by side comparison. 🤷‍♀️

Wrote about the week. How the shooter's ID didn't appear to matter to ppl. How the discourse takes place in very same spaces that incubate/perpetuate hate & violence. How shooters now know that their acts will be flattened, analyzed, argued over & amplified. How all of this feels so dark & poisonous

Something Is Very Wrong Online

Our political conversations take place in very same spaces that incubate and perpetuate unthinkable violence.

For context Hegseth was basically fired from every job he had, including resigning from his national guard duty because he had a Deus Vult tattoo. He got fired from all his other jobs for drinking and abusing women on the job.

Heres a letter his own mother wrote to him about his treatment of women

Son,

I have tried to keep quiet about your character and behavior, but after listening to the way you made Samantha feel today, I cannot stay silent. And as a woman and your mother I feel I must speak out..

You are an abuser of women that is the ugly truth and I have no respect for any man that belittles, lies, cheats, sleeps around, and uses women for his own power and ego. You are that man (and have been for years) and as your mother, it pains me and embarrasses me to say that, but it is the sad, sad truth.

I am not a saint, far from it.. so don't throw that in my face, but your abuse over the years to women (dishonesty, sleeping around, betrayal, debasing, belittling) needs to be called out.

Sam is a good mother and a good person (under the circumstances that you created) and I know deep down you know that. For you to try to label her as "unstable" for your own advantage is despicable and abusive. Is there any sense of decency left in you? She did not ask for or deserve any of what has come to her by your hand. Neither did

And we're told it's the cost of doing business.
Of being an American.

(Except, of course, in the rare instance that the mass shooter isn't a white man. In those cases the normally quiet folks suddenly want to use the moment to demonize people they want eradicated.)

Great system we have here.

People shouldn't be shot at their places of worship.
People shouldn't be shot at wedding receptions.
People shouldn't be shot while speaking at universities.
People shouldn't be shot while enjoying a night out.
People shouldn't be shot in classrooms.

But they are.
Regularly.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

Hey, can anyone remind me of who, famously, has fought against antifa?

It's right on the tip of my tongue...

Don't tell me that Trump doesn't love his sons when literally the only thing cheaper since he took office is cocaine.

The "free speech circle," huh?

Julie Davis @miraphoto.bsky.social · Sep 16

This happened in the Free Speech circle where students gather to discuss & debate. I went to Tech during the run up to the Iraq war & I spent hours in this spot & some convos I had there I remember to this day cause they changed me forever.

It’s called FREE SPEECH CIRCLE.

After a public rant was captured on video, a college student in Texas was expelled from her university, Texas Tech.

Then, she was *arrested and criminally charged* by local DA — unclear for what but story suggests maybe she flicked someone's baseball cap.

This is what David Brooks meant when he said a conservative had texted him that Kirk was their George Floyd. They didn't mean that Kirk was a victim of a profound injustice. In the conservative mind, Floyd was used as a symbolic pretext to reorient society. They want to use Kirk that way.

Vance encourages people to call the employers of people who "celebrate Charlie's murder," then says "get involved. Get involved. Get involved."

Cites Stephen Miller's vow to go after orgs that "promote violence and terrorism", and closes by calling on people to "put on the full armor of God."

Jack Jenkins @jackjenkins.me · Sep 15

In his closing remarks while hosting Charlie Kirk's show for the White House, Vance says "the most important truth Charlie told was" — and then recites Apostles' Creed.

Vance then spends several minutes railing against the left in a speech that, uh, I think is likely gonna get some attention.

I don't see anywhere that I said differently.
He was one of several people killed this week by gun violence that shouldn't have been.

Mike Ingram For Everyone @electmikeingram.bsky.social · Sep 10

He continued: "having an armed citizenry comes with a price, and that is part of liberty."

Anyway, was just thinking about that for no reason.

Mike Ingram For Everyone @electmikeingram.bsky.social · Sep 10

Apropos of, oh, nothing:

"I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational."

I think the question we're all failing to ask is why DID the FBI have their obviously very incredibly real and documented informant Donald J. Trump draw and write that barely pubescent birthday message to Epstein?

/s (because someone won't get it)

SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in a college applicant's file is blatantly unconstitutional

ALSO SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in targeting whom to detain and deport is cool cool cool
