I’m framing this and hanging it next to my emergency whiskey.

WE ARE NOT THE SAME! Stephen Miller said that Kirk's last message to him was a call to dismantle radical left organizations fomenting violence across the US and he will make this happen in Kirk's name. Right extremists were responsible for 75% of all extremist murders in the US from 2013 till now. 🤨

Facts are facts: Right-wing extremists account for the overwhelming majority of extremist-linked deaths in America.

Donald Trump says he is going to deploy the National Guard to Chicago. This is what weak men do to pretend they’re strong. Stay safe, stand with your community, and most importantly, know your rights:

New in PN: The slide toward "competitive authoritarianism" "Orbán subverted Hungary’s democracy with gerrymandering and by creating a nationwide right-wing media network. He put loyalists in the public prosecutor’s office, ensuring the judicial system would go after his enemies. Sound familiar?"

Imagine getting fired because math hurt a man’s feelings. We’re being governed by a walking Yelp review.

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.  Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

In Sweden Christian community protest against Netanyahu and Trump.

The FT View: The longer it has continued, the more it has borne the hallmarks of a vengeful assault by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s far-right government to destroy the very fabric of Palestinian society. https://on.ft.com/3UBv3Us

I saw a group of six girls in a car last night, windows down, shouting along to Taylor Swift’s “All Too Well” and I smiled because GIRLHOOD but then 20 seconds later, I heard them hit a parked car because the girlhood was too distracting.
