Trump is insecure and selfish: He's a weapon of mass destruction.

Defend Democracy - Protect the family.
The power to do good is in our hands.

There is a worldwide hunger;
a yearning for love, kindness
and mercy.

There is a need for demonstrations
of compassion and acts
of kindness.

We will not survive
without them.

To the #HouseDemocrats #SenateDemocrats - stop acting like you’re protecting government norms, there are no norms. Stand up and fight, get in the way of every piece of legislation, delay, get in their faces, do whatever it takes or GET OUT OF THE WAY #DV1 #ProudBlue @iampoliticsgirl.bsky.social

Friends, I think we’re at a turning point. 🧵1/
We either move ahead with a dictatorship or we reclaim our freedoms.
Personally, I would prefer my freedoms.
Everything has been a speeding bullet train coming at us for months. This is not sustainable and they know it.

Not sure who the author is, but this sums it up nicely. Everyone I know denounces political violence and we are truly sorry for his wife and family.

That said, it is *not* celebrating his death by pointing out the obvious: he was a virulent bigot and I will not sit around and pretend otherwise.

What Charlie Kirk’s killer was not:
-trans
-BLM
-antifa
-liberal
What Charlie Kirk’s killer was:
-white
-male
-conservative
-an excuse for the far right to foment violence without any of the facts they pretended to have

And I suspect no lessons will be learned.

In her dissent today in the case over whether roving patrols of ICE agents in L.A. were stopping & detaining people without reasonable suspicion (Pedro Vasquez Perdomo case), Justice Sotomayor (joined by Kagan & Jackson) twice omitted the word "respectfully" from her "I dissent"s.
