The "appropriate response" is to broadcast everything that Trump did and said on that appalling day for American democracy and then to tell this moron to sling his hook.
I might be wrong, but this stinks of Pharage involvement.

Mamdani got a humanities degree.
His win helps to illustrate that one of the central forces driving higher ed’s dissolution of the humanities is the fear that teaching people how power works can also lead to their interest in seizing it on behalf of the less powerful.

Parents, please check your kids’ candy this Halloween. I’ve just found an ancient metal whistle with the inscription “QUIS EST ISTE QUI VENIT" inside a Snickers bar. I blew it and heard a note of infinite distance, and now I’m haunted by a figure in pale, fluttering draperies. Be safe.

He deployed the national guard in one of his own cities, instructed ICE agents to violently harass innocent civilians, bombed an Iranian nuclear facility and renamed the department of defence to department for war. I don't see what else he could have done.

The death of Charlie Kirk is sad. The death of any human, from anything other than natural causes, before their time is sad
However, it is entirely unsurprising given that you can buy guns in Walmart.

Respect to Marc Guehi. Hopefully something we will revisit. I even understand Glasner standing his ground when the replacement fell through but it shouldnt have got to the stage it did with medical completed and transfer sheet handed in. Not fair on the lad. Disappointing for us. #YNWA #LFC

If you hear 'them' talk about an invisible Salah again send them this photo. The man is grieving his friend. Grief does things to human beings. Salah is hurting like hell. This was him at full time. Shut them up as much as we have to shut up the idiot that talked shit to Semenyo. #LFC #LFCBOU #PL

It appears that NUFC fans believe Isak lacks the capacity for independent thought. If it isn't LFC "tapping up" and luring away, it is the media (paid for by the cartel) or a dodgy agent controlling him like a puppet master. He is 25 years of age!!

Obviously there's a fine tradition of the BBC acting as an organ of the state to suppress critical - especially Irish - voices. But this is pathetic and shameful all the same.

Gélineau advanced the term "narcolepsy" in 1880 while de la Tourette described his eponymous syndrome in 1885. "Autism" was coined by Bleuler in 1911, with full diagnoses soon after.
