There has been a rush among centrists like Gavin Newsom and Ezra Klein to brush over the hateful life of Charlie Kirk and valorize the man.

Let me be clear, killing Charlie Kirk was wrong and abhorrent.

We must condemn murder without sanitizing a man who built his empire on hate.

My latest piece.
We Must Not Posthumously Sanitize Charlie Kirk's Hateful Life
Influential anti-LGBTQ+ activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated on Wednesday. While condemning violence is something most can get behind, sanitization of his hate has gone too far.

The attack on Charlie Kirk is disgusting, vile, and reprehensible.

In the United States of America, we must reject political violence in EVERY form.

i’m a lover of books and forever grateful for our public library system — one of the last truly accessible, community-driven spaces we have. there’s something magic about walking into a library and knowing that stories, ideas, and knowledge are all just… waiting for you.

“Nobody loved the library more than Dan.”

A meticulous list kept by Dan Pelzer from 1962-2025, cataloging all the books he borrowed and read from the Columbus Metropolitan Library, shared by his daughter.

I could not could not love this more.

If you’re watching @maddow.msnbc.com’s A Block you understand that people who stand up for other people can change the course of those people’s lives & our history. We have the power to refuse Trump’s path forward. Protesting actually works. Let’s go.

Pick your battles— as a whole when you look at who is running our country it is old white outdated men who want to tell me, women, what I can do with my body and my rights. Don’t get so granular— that’s the problem. That’s why the democrats can’t come together. ya’all can’t see the big picture.

I hope the people of LA show up and protest. I’m so tired of all these old outdated white men! More AOC, More Buttigieg, More individuals willing to fight for our democracy, for equality for the freedoms the United States represents!!
