When our baby was sick with flu/asthma screaming in pain & puking from inflammation in his lungs, Children’s Tylenol was the only thing that visibly made him feel better. It’s state child abuse to sow needless doubt in scared new parents that might cause them to withhold that relief from their kids

I continue to say that we are owed that day for everything that has happened since he came down that fucking escalator. We need this. This is our reward.

Tom Homan took a bag of cash from an undercover FBI agent the right way. by Ezra Klein

Remember when these weirdos were freaking the fuck out about a corporate logo change?

What we are witnessing is an outright abuse of power. This administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who would speak out. Media corporations — from television networks to newspapers — are capitulating to these threats.

He’s the biggest fucking pussy. What an embarrassment for humanity.

The notion that a media outlet has to be nice to One Special Boy in order to exist is so fundamentally un-American it is almost beyond belief. The fact that ABC/Disney backed down is evidence that the corporate consolidation of the media is a huge problem.

This is precisely the kind of government coercion that the First Amendment was designed to prevent — and media companies need to start standing up rather than capitulating to it.

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

I liked when the ugly late night drama was Jay Leno hiding in a closet.

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

Anyway, now we know what the FCC thinks is in the public interest: Fox host advocating for executing homeless people? Yes ABC comic suggesting Trumpers are using a death cynically? No

throws a lot of cold water on the bullshit peddled by the whole austin comedy scene, which has constructed an identity around the idea that the election freed up comics to say whatever they want without fear of cancellation

This is all he said?! This is why ABC (in response to threats from Trump's FCC) is taking Kimmel off the air?!

All these comedians lambasting “cancel culture” for years before this actual bullshit. Charlie Kirk was nothing more than a propagandist for this authoritarian regime. We are entering North Korean territory.

JD Vance: “Charlie Kirk never said Black women do not have brain processing power to be taken seriously. He never uttered those words.” Charlie Kirk: “Joy Reid, Michelle Obama, Ketanji Brown Jackson — you do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken seriously.”

Desperate Kash Patel Asks Shooter’s Family If They Can Solve Any Other Cases

Very fascist-y.

"I don't care that he's dead." "He's not a hero." "He's a scumbag." "He shouldn't be celebrated." No, no. I'm not saying that about Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk said that about George Floyd. Just in case anyone's interested in what he thought was fair to say about someone who was killed on camera.

This is true. Best in the game.

Alright. Just BTFD already.

Good god, Arizona knows how to aim at it’s own foot and shoot it.

So after days of Republicans blaming and vilifying Democrats and trans people for Kirk’s murder despite having no clue who the person was, we find out it’s a white guy from a Republican family in Utah who loved guns.

Witnesses Assumed Charlie Kirk Shooter Was Just Ordinary Gunman On School Campus

Hi @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social, we're friendly, we've been on each other's shows. We both agree Kirk's murder is horrific. Q: was Kirk "practicing politics in exactly the right way" when he called for me to be deported because he didn't like my Covid views on MSNBC? www.nytimes.com/2025/09/11/o...

Trumpflation

*adjusts glasses* i believe thats what is commonly referred to as a "false flag" in the literature

Every Dem politician and mainstream pundit whitewashing Kirk’s legacy or both-sidesing “political violence” should have to read this article with their eyes peeled open Clockwork Orange style, and then read the “hateful” posts from “the left,” which are like, mostly just quotes of Kirk’s own words.

so this guy like 100% had a stroke right

I’d be disappointed if ASU wasn’t in the list

Jesus, Ezra Klein is really a dolt.

He spent his entire life disparaging immigrants, disrespecting women, and blaming black folks, only to get shot in one of the whitest places on earth

I do not understand the mindset that makes liberals express sympathy for someone who would have absolutely celebrated if the roles were reversed, like bro, have some god damned self respect

How is this the watershed moment for political violence when we just had two actual elected officials and their spouses murdered in their own homes?

Wonder how the gun lobby flexes after this. I remember Scalise getting shot and he survived to become more of a gun nut.

Trump called Nazis “very fine people” after they murdered Heather Heyer. The whole right can fuck off with their crocodile tears for violent rhetoric.

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life. The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

I condemn violence and murder in all its forms, including the shooting of Charlie Kirk. Also, Charlie Kirk was a racist, transphobic, homophobic, anti-democratic ‘activist’ who helped make this country a worse, less just place for millions of people. These statements are not contradictory.

The president went on TV to attack political opponents and blame them for the killing of Charlie Kirk, even though we don’t know who shot him. If there is anything this man can do to worsen the situation, he will do it. Despicable.

Ngl today several different online platforms all independently making a strong case that social media is bad for society

Donald Trump pardoned multiple people who stormed the capitol looking to hurt or kill elected leaders like Pelosi and his own vice president Pence. But the right is really torn up about political violence. Really.

MAGA 3 days ago: Chicago is about to find out the meaning of WAR MAGA today: the left needs to stop condoning violence

Not glad that anyone was murdered needlessly with a weapon of war, but Kirk was a hateful piece of shit. That is not debatable.

“Black women do not have the brain processing power to be taken seriously. You have to go steal a white person’s slot”. -Charlie Kirk

I had no wish for him to be murdered, but I’ll harshly judge anyone who flies their flag at half staff for that hateful extremist or talks about honoring his memory. There was no honor in his life.

Today reminds me that the Epstein files need to be released.
