As a gun owner, I was appalled by the Trump admin’s reaction to the murder of Alex Pretti, who was killed while legally carrying a firearm & exercising his First Amendment rights.
At GIFFORDS Gun Owners for Safety, we know that lawful gun owners like Alex should be safe & free in their communities.

Imagine if four years into our war in Iraq we had only occupied 20 percent of it and lost 1.2 million men. Would anyone say the US is winning?
No? Then how in the hell can you say Russia is winning?!

one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things

Now, WaPo is laying off hundreds of *real* journalists — including the reporter covering Amazon.
