I have never attended a Turning Point USA event nor signed up for any texts from them. Why did I receive 3 texts from TPUSA this afternoon, including one from Erika Kirk, about Charlie Kirk? ⁉️ Are Erika Kirk and Turning Point USA trying to profit off Charlie Kirk’s death? 🤔

Never before in our history has one man exercised such unbridled discretion affecting the lives of so many of us, while simultaneously preventing others — Congress, the courts, the American people — from having a say or even knowing what he’s going to do next. This is what dictatorship looks like.

🛑 Hey Ackman and NY business leaders: It would cost you less to pick up the phone and call Zohran Mamdani and cut a deal - he said he wants to be mayor of all NYers. ❓Aren’t you the best deal makers in the world?

🛑 Hey Hakeem and Chuck 👇 “So Zohran thoroughly earned the win, and Cuomo and the Democratic establishment thoroughly earned the loss. And even if they finally take the hint, generational turnover in the Democratic Party is coming whether they like it or not.”

Zohran delivered the Democratic establishment the thrashing it deserved
It backed another tired, entitled candidate in Andrew Cuomo. Voters finally had enough.

If a Muslim in the US publicly called for a missile strike on a famous celebrity activist onboard a civilian ship or plane, the FBI would be investigating them for terrorism. But a rich white guy gets to incite violence without any consequences 🤷🏽♂️👇🏽

If this MSNBC story about courts-martial is confirmed, I'm begging people - especially writers and reporters - do not fall for the Trump line that this is about Afghanistan. This is about Trump seeking revenge on the people who woudn't him do things like shoot American protesters.

Forgive me for being blunt. But “we’ll fix this in the next election” is NOT A GREAT RESPONSE TO WHERE WE ARE. Normal rules are NOT in play. Act now. Organize now. Speak up now. Plan now. Push back—and urge power- holders to do the same. Now.
