lol🤣 Idiots. An anonymous UN official said the escalator in question was actually stopped prematurely by someone from Trump’s group, who ran ahead of the group and accidentally triggered a stop mechanism, and the teleprompter that Trump was so upset about was also being operated by his White House.

The New Yorkers Against ICE rally is this Thursday, friends! 6 pm at Foley Square - don't miss it! The big demands: ICE out of NY, ICE out of the Courts! Pass NY4All and NYC Trust Act! No Troops in NYC!

This is what happens when one party has access to an unopposed media apparatus that allows them to define and redefine the terms of debate at will.

Hatred

Charlie Kirk was an awful human being. He had zero empathy and was wrapped in a slick bow of hate. And we live in a country which facilitated and embraced his pathology.

Before we go down the usual “what could have Dems done,” there were national security avenues to review the sale - Chris Murphy tried to do it, after the fact! It’s very clear that Dems mostly just didn’t care - they told reporters as much through the entire saga.

Canadians don't have rights. We have privileges that can be revoked at the drop of a hat by rightwing perverts who are obsessed with the genitals of children.

Charlie Kirk Sept 27 2024: "Just so we're clear, the Haitians that are in Huntsville that are raping your women and hunting you down at night - it's only gonna get worse - unless Donald Trump wins There will be hundreds of thousands of Haitians brought into Alabama and they will become your masters"

This by @jamesomalley.co.uk is good.

Dems advertising that they are capitulating to threats of violence is not an especially smart plan even on narrow selfpreservation concerns

No one should get violent threats. But if you’re gonna change your vote because of it, you should resign. I’Ve been getting violent threats all week and not only do I have no intention of shutting up, I think it’s evidence that we need to say it louder

I changed up some Charlie Kirk quotes and substituted 'MAGA' in various places. Republicans shouldn't be offended because I'm just sharing an opinion. It's totally harmless. Just call it free speech on the flip side. I'm ready for my podcast now. Just JOKING. #RepublicanHypocrisy #FreeSpeech

"Joe Biden is a bumbling, dementia-filled, Alzheimer's, corrupt tyrant who should honestly be put in prison and/or given the death penalty for his crimes against America." -Charlie Kirk (07/24/23)

Trump Spends Entire U.K. Trip Trying To Figure Out Where He Knows Prince Andrew From

GOP Senator Cynthia Lummis: "Under normal times, in normal circumstances, I tend to think that the First Amendment should always be sort of the ultimate right... I don't feel that way anymore." www.semafor.com/article/09/1...

My mom called me last night about the Kimmel firing, saying "This is how Hitler got started!" I quickly responded, "By firing the late night tv hosts?" Turns out, mom was right.

Got another message: Apparently it’s Rick Scott’s measure, for a national day of remembrance for Charlie Kirk, and it’s set to be voted on in early afternoon. Call your Senators and ask them all to object! And ask them to say that Charlie Kirk had bad values and deserves no honors.

genuinely crazy that this is happening on behalf of charlie kirk of all people

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

David Frum on Jimmy Kimmel: "This is not cancel culture because it's not culture. It's state repression. It's an order from the government. Here is the script, you must read, if you do not read it, you will be taken off the air."

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

Yes that’s when we knew it was completely over here in Hong Kong hongkongfp.com/2020/06/21/c...

7-time Formula 1 world champion Lewis Hamilton weighs in on the situation in Gaza to his ~40 million Instagram followers.

"Can they truly be so ignorant to the words of a man they have so rushed to memorialize? I don’t know. But the most telling detail in Klein’s column was that, for all his praise, there was not a single word in the piece from Kirk himself." Ta-Nehisi Coates, with receipts.

Jesus Christ. A standing ovation — from Liberals too — for Charlie Kirk in the Canadian House of Commons. You can (and should) oppose political violence without doing all this, you know.

I recommend everyone watches this

Kirk called the civil rights act "a huge mistake" and referenced the bit in Leviticus about executing gay people as "God’s perfect law when it comes to sexual matters." So maybe folks could condemn political violence without whitewashing his god-awful politics.

Someone shot up my kid's school today, and our governor is paying tribute to a guy who thought that is an acceptable price to pay for having the Second Amendment. Jared Polis has failed Colorado.

Fucking finally. Fight back against the bullshit framing that tries to make Dems responsible for everything. The GOP is *choosing* to create this kind of societal environment. They could stop it at any time. They have agency as well. They’re not fucking children (except when, well, you know)

🔥 White women in California slap Mexican flag stickers on their cars, sending ICE on wild goose chases. Civil disobedience with teeth. Be the grit. Be the sand. Break the gears. Make the machine choke on its own stupidity.

Seriously There are some weak ass mfckrs out there I hope they grow some courage

Fucking insanity

Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends. But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month. See you soon, NYC.

a good arbiter of how close we are to bad hybrid regime shit is if the political comedy shows start getting pulled for whatever reason

"way beyond what any group of people would find tolerable" % of 1st generation immigrants per capita (2020-22 data): - Australia: 29% - Switzerland: 29% - New Zealand: 27% - Canada: 23% - UK: 16% It's not "any group" who finds this intolerable. It's just intolerant ones.

During the 2019 Hong Kong protests, various factions that ranged from clergy to suburban moms, lawyers to anarchists, coalesced on the four-part slogan: 不篤灰 (no snitching) 不割席 (no severing ties) 不分化 (no forming of cliques) 不指責 (no scolding) Seems like new American anti-fascists are (re)learning!

🚨 Alert: ICE activity reported at Home Depot in Germantown at 9 AM today (7/5). Agents in vests that said, POLICE, ICE and ERO. One person confirmed detained. 1/

Early reports indicate the beleaguered NWS did its job. It was Texas officials who seem to have failed to properly warn the public. There is a 4+ hour gap between the NWS alert & the first Texas govt alert. Read this from local TV news outlet KXAN: www.kxan.com/investigatio...

Texas officials were warned by NWS at 1:14am and chose to post the warning on social media at 5:16am (as if the campers were on social media at 5:16am) instead of driving/flying to check on/notify those who may have been in danger. This was an avoidable tragedy.

Still nothing from Trump about all the people who were killed in Texas yesterday.

He represents Texas. And today he’s talking about a random dude who burned a flag. Because that’s what Texas elected officials should be focused on today.

Rural areas hit hardest by catastrophic storms are the same areas now in danger of losing their hospitals after Trump’s Medicaid cuts just passed.

We are finally starting to get some posts from Republicans after the deadly storm in Texas.
