not me though right

bill maher came nowhere near challenging trump but he’s still being targeted. wonder if there’s some kind of lesson in that

No he didn't, he made it all about him, said Jimmy Kimmel "has the right to be wrong", and then at the end of the show he called Javier Bardem and Meg Stalter antisemites.

i just saw a far right influencer claim that he stopped the bullet from exiting his body and striking any bystanders through sheer bone density and holy force of will so at this point nothing shocks me

please don’t put on the dhs website that i got mad :(

least surprising “how it started/how it’s going” in history

is it guilt by association fallacy to find it weird that captain rationality is hanging out with anti-vaxxers?

well I’ll give you this, you definitely understood your instructions

People need abortions therefore the people claiming to represent them should advocate for their ability to have them.

"Ezra Klein, Charlie Kirk, Free Speech, and Whitewashing in the Media": @caitlinmoriah.bsky.social and @trentrichardnelson.bsky.social with @marisakabas.bsky.social, on our Half the Answer podcast www.liberalcurrents.com/half-the-ans...

this thread is a nice reminder that hanania is an extremely poor thinker who benefits from the fact that many commentators are innumerate and can be easily misled with simple data manipulation

her name couldn’t really be WILL OBEY

ah fuck www.phoenixnewtimes.com/news/phoenix...

Worth noting that the highest profile and most successful Democratic elected official currently in those states is Laura Kelly, the Governor of Kansas, who seems to not believe in Ezra Klein’s theory of politics!

I stopped by the @liberalcurrents.com Half the Answer podcast to talk about Charlie Kirk, Ezra Klein, free speech and the power of independent media. Full episode here: www.liberalcurrents.com/half-the-ans...

I hope some newspapers use a crop where you can easily read the sign.

tiktok is censoring my very important PSA to all the incels that follow me or our podcast. please share with any incel you may know

We had a double feature for this week. Here @caitlinmoriah.bsky.social spoke with the great @marisakabas.bsky.social about the media in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk assassination, the brave writers and commentators who have spoken out, those who’ve yielded to political pressure and more.

two half the answers in one week?? yeah we just love you that much

A new party! How does he come up with these brilliant and original ideas?

To recap: the site “Charlie’s Murderers,” which targeted those critical of Kirk and shared their personal info, went down Sunday night. It was replaced by “Charlie Kirk Data Foundation,” which never had an accessible database or functioning submission portal, and is now also gone

did we rush this episode out for topicality reasons? i mean yeah but that doesn’t mean im gonna slack on the thumbnail youtu.be/SugTsgrA01A?...

Great chat @caitlinmoriah.bsky.social and I had with @noturtlesoup17.bsky.social about groypers, Charlie Kirk, Nick Fuentes, and lots of other gross people and strange concepts like “irony pilling.” Send it to your mom if need be.

ON BARI WEISS’S PODCAST AHAHAHA

talking to @noturtlesoup17.bsky.social was so great, please support her work so we can have clarity, specificity and accuracy on this subculture and their weird-ass leader

listen we all needed to yell at ezra klein

umm i think you’ll find that this is actually the fault of those college students because they set the precedent that words can be violence and people deserve to be mobbed and fired for it. this is an actual argument put forward by the FIRE and some very famous professors who are on the flight list

hey if anyone knows jimmy kimmel and he wants to speak to an independent reporter in light of all the corporate fuckery, give him my info

im just so glad we have a vice president who is against murder

you may need a tank to think but i guess im built different

what ezra doesn't seem willing to accept is that charlie kirk was part of a political movement that does not think that "we are going to have to live here with each other" and is fact very interested in the elimination and/or subjugation of many, many people

the little giggle while delivering this story 💀

I would like to see the 'liberal center' as it were be a bit more aware that there is a distinction between 'doing debate' and defending the concept of debating. Liberalism isn't a call to intellectual neutrality, but an active commitment to specific principles of liberty, pluralism and rights.

You want to be alive, but they want you dead. We’re a new, well, funded democratic group that thinks you can meet them halfway.

Oh, you know the ones.

if universities are committed to hosting difficult speakers, I will gladly go to your law school and tell your students that everyone in the federalist society is a freak and ghoul and should be sunned at minimum.

idk i guess if so many pundits think they and charlie kirk were doing the same job, we should believe them

Anyway, don't forget the people who so confidently led you astray here. I'm sure plenty are nice, but that doesn't mean you should consider them experts in anything behind the news headlines they glom onto.

WHY IS THE PRINT SO SMALL im losing it

Anyone who thinks Charlie Kirk's killing was "arguably the most-high profile killing of a political figure since the '60s" should be kept far, far away from a network newsroom. What about Harvey Milk and George Moscone? Or Allard Lowenstein? Hell, Leo Ryan was gunned down at Jonestown!

alex jones just said in his livestream that “trump’s polling is way up” so. who am i supposed to believe

oh nooooo are they fighting

here’s the deal - AI doesn’t have to “work” (as in, be accurate) for its use in targeting people’s right to remain in this country. it just has to fuck with the lives of enough people to make everyone think “it could be me next.” and that’s what they like! www.liberalcurrents.com/deflating-hy...

truly one of the most unintentionally funny things i've ever seen someone post online about themself
