Why did Gov. Dan McKee of Rhode Island describe the shooting at Brown University as “an unthinkable nightmare”?

In this gun-obsessed country, it's the most thinkable thing I can think of.

President Reagan gutted the US mental health system in 1981, and it has never recovered. The GOP doesn't give a sh*t about mental health services and never has. The only time they mention the issue is as a smokescreen for their pathological gun fetish following a shooting, then they drop it.
As a mental health professional and human being, I’m absolutely disgusted!🤬
Can’t make this 💩 up!!! Stupid losers 🤬🖕🏼

This is not a war. These are extra-judicial killings, which are illegal under American and international law. For the American government to be doing this is disgusting and shameful.

When is the US #tourism industry going to come out against Trump & MAGA? Looks like they've got nothing to lose and everything to gain by doing so.
It's not just social media. Looks like visitors to the US from Europe and other countries that are part of the visa waiver program will have to submit an enormous amount of data about themselves and their families, including DNA, if proposed new rules are accepted

Is there a legal defense fund for members of the military who disobey illegal orders? There should be, or else they will fear the legal consequences of standing firm.

Big news from Indiana today, where the #GOP rejected Trump's bid to redistrict. As of today, Trump is a lame duck president. There will be more defections.

Wow! GOP in Indiana showing political courage! I'm going to lie down for a while to recover from the shock. They should be proud of themselves, and their families should be proud of them. They're showing that you can take on Trump, and that's good for us all.
Indiana GOP rejects Trump’s map in major blow to his gerrymandering push
The GOP-controlled state Senate voted down a bill that would have wiped out Indiana’s two Democratic-held seats in the House.

The old saying that a grand jury will indict a ham sandwich only applies if you actually have some ham, two slices of bread, and maybe a little mustard. The incompetence of this DOJ, while unsurprising, is stunning.
DOJ fails — again — to re-indict Letitia James
It’s the second failed attempt in two weeks.

Here's another example of a former friendly country coming to grips with the reality that they can't trust the USA under the current regime. It is hard to imagine that their trust will be restored even if there is a regime change in 2028. Nobody likes to get whiplashed.

Still waiting for America to be great.
Trump moves to require
ALL FOREIGN TOURISTS TO DISCLOSE 5 YEARS OF SOCIAL MEDIA HISTORY, ADDRESS, & FAMILY INFO 42 countries enrolled in the visa waiver program like UK, France, Germany, Israel, Japan, South Korea, Australia, & New Zealand they don't need VISA
but will do this online

The US #tourism industry takes yet another hit from Trump. I have European friends who refuse to come here until he is gone and things return to normal.

The pettiness of this!

❤️

A joyful sense and purity
Is all I can remember;
The very night to me was bright,
'Twas summer in December…

What ere it is, it is a light
So endless unto me
That I a world of true delight
Did then and to this day do see.

“No matter how much bluster or rhetoric the President shows up in NE PA with *tonight it’s not going to change where the American people are right now & that’s frustrated with rising costs & really concerned about their futures”

Did Gov. Shapiro just throw some Shade?
