I would also add that Trump has pulled lots and lots of federal agents normally tasked with investigating serious crimes off those duties to do immigration enforcement with ICE. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Murphy: "This isn't shocking, bc over last year, Trump has been engaged in a dizzying campaign to increase violence in this country. He's restoring gun rights to felons, eliminated the WH office of gun violence prevention & stopped funding mental health grants & community anti-gun violence grants"

Warnock: "Any nation that tolerates this kind of violence year after year, decade after decade in random places, on our college and school campuses, without doing all that we can to stop it is broken and in need of moral repair."

Yeah, Republicans, it's the damn guns.

You can deny it, hide from it, refuse to acknowledge it, and try and distract from it, but that's simply the truth.

And if you won't admit this and won't commit to doing anything about it, then yeah, it's you too.

Perfect question, Ron. And to you, Vance, we ALL are waiting for YOU to back up your comment, e.g., ACTION. What are your actions? What are you planning? What have you done? As per my record of YOU and TRUMP: NOTHING, NO action. Show me where I am wrong I'll wait here.
OK then, what was the action? What has the Trump admin done? What proposals have they made? They have only ever offered “thoughts and prayers” on social media. Nothing else.

Today marks 13 years since we lost 20 students and 6 staff members at Sandy Hook Elementary.

As we honor their memories, we reaffirm our commitment to advancing real gun safety reforms and ensuring that every child in every community can go to school free from the fear of gun violence.

The hero of Bondi: Ahmed el Ahmed, a 43 year old fruit shop owner from Sutherland. He grabbed the gun off one of the terrorists shooting at Jews during a Hanukkah celebration.

Ahmed was then shot in the leg and shoulder by another terrorist. He’s being treated in the hospital and expected to be OK.

It took a little time to pull all this data together, but I think it was worth the wait!

Democrats won 245 races in South Carolina last month❕

They won in some of the reddest counties in the state.

They won because South Carolinians are tired of Republican nonsense.

LFG!
