The man grew up shooting guns, used identifiable Groyper symbols on his bullets and shot a man vilified as not conservative enough by the Groyper following. Seriously, folks, leftist anti-fascists aren't good enough with guns to make that shot.
Bill Maher calls out Ben Shapiro for saying Charlie Kirk's shooter was "of the left" — then admitting he wasn’t sure because of reports that he may be a Groyper. "The internet is undefeated in getting it wrong."
Total nut job.

When we said "NO KINGS" I don't think anyone listened. We have to say it LOUDER!!!
The Rosegarden CLUB? He turned the People's House into a private CLUB?
He literally privatized a public good. He stole our house.
Do you understand? This is no different than if he seized the Grand Canyon & put it behind a velvet rope, for members only.
He's a fucking thief & a vandal to boot.

NEW: Trump has targeted political foes — including Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook — for claiming more than one primary residence on their loan papers.
But ProPublica found that at least three of the president’s Cabinet members have done the same thing.

After previously speaking with Andrew Cuomo, Trump is now trying to boost his odds in the NYC mayoral race by offering jobs to his opponents Eric Adams and Curtis Sliwa.
Let's be clear: there's only one candidate that Trump and the oligarchy truly fear — and it's Zohran Mamdani.

This era exemplifies irony.
Going to be wild to have Clarence Thomas and other members of the court write that even the appearance of impropriety is sufficient to allow the President to remove Federal Reserve members from office, and then head off to Harlan Crow’s yacht

This needs to be widely circulated. The Trump administration and the Republican Party, long claiming to be on the side of law enforcement, are breaking the rules of our judicial code and arresting the very people who are critical in keeping our system honest.

This won't happen until things are so bad that deep red America is angrier at Trump than they are at people who are not like them. We could wait a while, given how easily they revert to scapegoating.
