I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Brian Kilmeade stated homeless individuals who are resisting mental health treatment should be given "involuntary lethal injection, or something. Just kill ’em." This weekend, there was a mass shooting of a homeless encampment. It barely made a blip on the news.

They’re having a hard time coping because the killer was white and Christian, but statistically that’s the profile for political violence.
And that profile gets the benefit of the doubt. If he were Black, she’d be foaming at the mouth.

I have written and deleted a lot of posts but I keep thinking about how the brutal assassination of Minnesota State senator Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark, and their beloved dog Gilbert in June did not prompt this same level of calls for empathy, sympathy, and flags at half-mast.

One thing I’ll say about the new South Park episode:
It shows you how far satire has to go to be more outrageous than reality.
It’s a case study in what happens to comedy when the truth is already peak hyperbole!

The answer for every single thing Trump has done for the last two weeks and will do for the next six weeks is just “because he’s a pedophile and covering it up.”

This is what I’m so worried about
I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
