the hardest part of living in Portland is having your house burn down every single night and then having to rebuild it during the day. the amount of money i spend just in drywall is insane.
Trump: Portland is burning to the ground—insurrectionists all over the place. The politicians are afraid for their lives. That’s the only reason they say there’s nothing happening.

It's extremely interesting that Charlie Kirk had a daily podcast, countless public appearances, and is generally one of the most recorded men on the planet and we are always being told, never shown, that he was an open minded civil debator
He argued with civility. It's a start.
What disagreements, exactly, was he bridging via his work and words?

I understand how people get so disgusted with guns they just say "ban them all", but that's not a workable policy proposal in the US.
if you want regulation then you'd better have people writing those regulations who understand what a firearm is- in a technical and a legal sense.

a. how the fuck are you going to ban something in law without precisely describing what it is?
b. my state (NJ) bans the AR-15, all derivatives, and any "substantially identical" firearms by name (www.nj.gov/lps/dcj/aggu...). anyways, google NJ compliant firearms. it's a lot harder than you think.

RFK Jr.'s #2 is stepping in as acting CDC director. You need to call your Congress people now and demand hearings until RFK is forced out. They're politically weak for another 48-72 hours, then they'll do unbelievable damage in the next month. Show me that you called and I will give you a reward 👇

Now is a great time to remember that facial recognition software is far more easily fooled by sunglasses than by face masks.
Totally unrelated:
Sunglasses, now that I think about them, are probably really useful in Los Angeles at this time of year.
Ijs. No reason.

The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more.
I'm trying to save them.
You can find the deleted docs at cdcguidelines.com - I'll be adding more over the weekend.

The mayor of Pacific Palisades is Karen Bass. Pacific Palisades is part of the City of Los Angeles. Please stop with this. If you don't know how LA works just stop talking about it
LA city is not on fire; Cities in LA county are on fire. Malibu has a Mayor but Steve Schmidt didn't call for him to be recalled he asked for Bass. Pacific Palisades has a Mayor but Schmidt directed his anger toward a black woman; Supervisor Kathryn Barger( republican) is the "Mayor” for Altadena
