Hey everyone, in the heat of things, I originally saw this quote in a piece in the Nation, and their quote has since been updated to specify that it was specific to Joy Reid, Michelle Obama, etc. But Kirk’s clearly anti-black statements speak for themselves: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

coates is genuinely a generational writer

The Department of Justice has removed a study showing that white supremacist and far-right violence “continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism” in the United States. 🔗 www.404media.co/doj-deletes-...

there is nothing here that ben shapiro hasn’t said before. racism is fake, black people are ungrateful, etc.

Just when Keir Starmer thought he’d got Jeffrey Epstein off his plate – look who’s coming to dinner | Marina Hyde

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

Guys thank you for allowing me to fly you to my private island. Have fun but please respect my boundaries vis a vis minors trafficking. That’s just for me, sorry. Help yourself to ANYTHING in the fridge tho

Scoop: Status has obtained the termination letter The Washington Post sent to @karenattiah.bsky.social, in which it informed her that she was being fired for social media posts "about white men." Details in @status.news: www.status.news/p/karen-atti...

I missed yesterday that the president announced that 88% of the United States had died

Elected Democrats are weirdly allergic to simple moral language even when it’s eminently justifiable.

WTF is this? Normalizing authoritarianism repression as an electoral strategy www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Reminder: Most mass shootings are carried out by cisgender men.

Folks, the "I bought this before Elon went crazy" bumper stickers ain't gonna cut it. You gotta get rid of your Tesla. Anything less is a tacit endorsement of this man and his dangerous ideology.

I plan to post this ABC News supercut video of Trump calling Harris and Democrats "fascists" (and "communists"!) everytime I see a Republican on TV whining about Trump being called a "fascist" by the left. Oh, the hypocrisy! Oh, the gaslighting!

Trump's Under Secretary of Defense has called Islam "the most oppressive, violent religion" & accused Obama of being a secret "Muslim" & "terrorist leader" & a "Manchurian candidate" serving the interests of Hamas. In any other administration, this would be a huge scandal.

MAGA is the weirdest cult on Earth

Something people aren't talking about enough is how often Charlie Kirk invoked the Fifth Amendment when testifying before Congress about the domestic terrorists he provided buses to get to Washington on January 6, 2021.

Hoping to see some outdoor college debates from the wsj oped team. 🤞🏼

Medics returning from Gaza say Israel deliberately targeting children with sniper, drone fire, Dutch newspaper reports.

So much for the justices’ promise of a “colorblind Constitution.”

If you’re not familiar with the term “stochastic terrorism,” now is a good time to bone up, for the president is a stochastic terrorist. From 2024:

“build factories in our country or else, and if you do build them here we will arrest, torture and humiliate your workers” incoherent cruelty for the sake of incoherent cruelty

Locked box with a scribbled note inside: 1. anita sarkisanisn 2. ex wife 3. karl (guy at gym) (eat shit karl) 4. trans (all) 5. hilary clinton 5. guy in apartment above (suspect jew?) 5. rest of jews 5. femininsm

The high road is for chumps. Resting on moral superiority is for people who have already given up.

Can’t believe it has to be said again but: Polite fascism is still fascism.

Literally the last thing he said on his last podcast was dishonest stats about crime designed as racist dogwhistle to justify the authoritarian military takeover of cities. Yes he didn't say the n-word in public. Big deal.

Lol. A year ago these same people insisted that any effort to label foreign propaganda was an attack on free speech, and forced the dismantling of multiple orgs studying foreign disinformation

This is who they are at a core level. They and their loved ones deserve everything that they get.

Reporters talking with everyone who has ever met the shooter asking if the shooter knew any trans people. Healthy society we have here for sure.

Top *eight* articles on NYT devoted to Charlie Kirk, top one asks if he will be remembered like MLK. This is a man who only a tiny percent of Americans had even heard of before his death, whose views are too nasty for NYT to detail. But they are trying so hard to turn into martyr.

> the shooter is trans > ok the bullets were trans > ok the roommate is trans

they literally want to round us up man. can democrats please get a fucking spine and stand the fuck up for us now? we literally cannot counter this ourselves when they want our voices and rights taken away. please do fucking something

this is a big part of why i won't tolerate transphobia in my own fucking party. we're under attack right now and democrats don't need to fucking add to it.

This is basically every conservative on Twitter right now.

wrote on charlie kirk for the newsletter this weekend

I won't quote-tweet our main character of the day, but if your complaint is that Charlie Kirk's words are being taken out of context, I'd encourage you to skim through the Media Matters tag for his name. They have hundreds of posts about Kirk and most have longer clips that give the full context.

Bluesky's main character of the day claims: "Kirk never said gays should be stoned" The "full context": Kirk misquotes Leviticus 18, calling it "God's perfect law when it comes to sexual matters." He claims the passage says "thou shall lay with another man shall be stoned to death." (06/07/24)

Was just reminded of this

no noah, i wrote that post because i think you are a weird antisocial loser and i want you to know that

🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️ Trans people are "a vulnerable minority group that has been widely demonized. Any good journalistic practice would involve nailing down accuracy to avoid making things worse." – @lopatto.bsky.social www.theverge.com/politics/777...

did a little media criticism www.theverge.com/politics/777...

Nancy Mace acting on disinformation that the shooter was trans: goes off on tirade against "trannies" Nancy Mace when the actual shooter is a Christian white man: "he's just a poor lost boy, let us pray for him."

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...

Truly an absolutely wild thing to say out loud. Obviously, very clearly, they were all ready to other this shooter and use him for their own agendas (which is, after all, exactly what Kirk himself would have done). But to hear this out loud is really something.

going from "transgender ideology" to "look at the poor misguided white kid" without even taking a breath, unconscionable
