“The chat offers an unfiltered look at how a new generation of GOP activists talk when they think no one is listening.”
And this should surprise anyone how? This is who they’ve always been, going to church, acting like “nice people” all the while saying stuff like this on the DL.
EXCLUSIVE: Thousands of leaked messages show leaders of Young Republican groups joking about gas chambers, slavery and rape in a private Telegram chat.

No Kings II, Wasilla, Newcomb Park, October 18, 12pm. See you there.

A core principle behind all MSUP events is a commitment to nonviolent action. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.

Every. Single. Word. of Edward Murrow’s statement re: McCarthyism describes tRumpism to a, um, “t.”

The technologies we use advance rapidly; social justice, not so much.

Thank you @rbreich.bsky.social for sharing that clip!
CBS reporter Edward R. Murrow embodied what a journalist should be: someone who holds power to account instead of capitulating to it.

Over 70 years later, his segment denouncing Joe McCarthy’s congressional witch hunts rings truer than ever.

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act.

I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but you need to be aware of this imminent danger. Let me explain what’s going on.

Republicans have shut down the government to take healthcare away from millions of Americans and give Trump a blank check for his illegal power grab.

I just watched the 2 part Ken Burns PBS program on Thomas Jefferson.

The straight lines from then to TODAY were plain as day. Jefferson/Adams frenemies re federalism/dem republic, dirty journos, rogue SC, racism, int’l trade.

Despite being “old” — released 1997 — IMO entirely worth your time.

All together now, join the thousands who have already cancelled those Disney streaming subscriptions and especially $$$ vaca/cruises. Make it hurt.

I’d be ok w reinstatement w apology…and let’s throw in personal donations from CEOs of Disney, Sinclair and Nexstar to the charity of Jimmy’s choice?
We’ll see just how sorry, shall we?

Kirk’s own epitaph:

“It’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment.”

Amend the constitution where it falls short. Every other modern democracy has hunters, sport shooters, collectors…yet tiny fractions of US gun violence.
