My thoughts on Charlie Kirk and the journalists (such as @ezraklein.bsky.social and @sallyjenx.bsky.social) who prefer to focus on his politeness over his intolerance.

He argued for death and intolerance.
It doesn't matter how polite a bigot is, they're still a bigot.

By ignoring or sidelining Kirk's bigotry, you are lying to yourself and us about who he was.

BUT you are being interestingly honest to us about who YOU are...
I did not expect to see someone attempting to justify witnessing and not reporting the sexual abuse of minors today.
Failure to report crimes against vulnerable people is a crime if you work with vulnerable people, like being a teacher, social worker, or minister.

Otherwise, it’s being an individual, minding your own business, not snitching, not talking to feds, not having proof, or letting sleeping dogs lie.

1. He isn't planning.
2. He doesn't care what happens to other people.
When Trump says, "We're cutting out the insurance companies," how is he planning to cover catastrophic health events?

An HSA ain't gonna do it.

He's already gotten Mike Johnson to delay swearing in Adelita Grijalva. Just do that on a larger scale. Maybe invent some emergency delaration bs to justify it.

Also, it won't be Republicans who'll be out of a job.
the question to ask about this is, okay, he wants to cancel the midterms. how does he get the VA state board of elections to cancel the midterms? how does he get the georgia board of elections to do it? how does he convince republican house members to quit their jobs and give up their paychecks?
Trump says a lot of deranged shit, but, per this Reuters article — and the threats of invoking the Insurrection Act in Minnesota this morning — he is very clearly exploring how to cancel the midterms.

If there is a practical or procedural difference between a state prosecuting an individual or a state prosecuting an individual who happens to have a badge, we already live in an oppressive police state and hence outrage is doubly justified.
If we assume there is no practical or procedural difference between a state prosecuting you and a state prosecuting a federal LEO for something he did at work this is a compelling point

@amyklobuchar.com @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

Fuck "kitchen table issues" - this is what you NEED to be messaging on.
they’re abducting our neighbors and putting them in concentration camps and they’ll shoot you in the fucking face if you don’t cheer them on while they’re doing it.

My @sumsung.bsky.social phone decided to update the keyboard to use @officialgrammarly.bsky.social for grammar suggestion.

If that happens to you, turn it off immediately as @officialgrammarly.bsky.social does not understand grammar.

My New Years Resolutions:

1. Gain weight
2. Drink to excess
3. Waste all my money

Less than 10% of resolutions succeed, so I picked ones that I'd be fine failing.

Plus if I end up doing these things, I can console myself with my successful resolutions.

And the AP have called the two referendum questions in Maine:
1. NO to disenfranchising voters needlessly, and
2. YES to allowing courts to bar people shown to be violent from having dangerous weapons.

With that plus the other good election news, I'll sleep soundly tonight.

I am begging Democratic politicians to stop asking us to "help the Republicans lean how to be nice."

They know how to be nice. They know the consequences of what they're doing.

They don't care.
Millions of Americans are already learning that their health insurance costs for 2026 are going way up.

I want to hear from you so we can make this impossible for the GOP to ignore the consequences of their policies.

If your premiums are going up, reply below and please share your story.

This presumes that the consensus of a collection of compulsive gamblers is a reliable predictor.
This is actually a useful one to have a consensus estimate for.

Gavin once again proving his only principle is opportunism.

Imagine lionizing a white nationalist who celebrated violence against his political opponents - that's what Charlie Kirk was, and that's what @governor.ca.gov is doing here.
The best way to honor Charlie's memory is to continue his work: engage with each other, across ideology, through spirited discourse. In a democracy, ideas are tested through words and good-faith debate — never through violence.

Mark Cuban straight up admitting his only moral compass points to wherever he can get more money.
Want to use rich people like me to your advantage? Incent us to help those who need it the most. Lower corp taxes for comps that pay a min of $25 per hour. Lower corp taxes if employees get stock at the same pct as the CEO.

Bottom up incentives work. Dems never innovate. They bitch

Hey @jeffcmays.bsky.social did you dream as a young lad that you would grow up to write a poorly constructed press release for a sex pest?
Monday’s mass shooting may put concerns over gun violence back on voters’ minds, and have already lead some to scrutinize Mr. Mamdani for his views on policing. “He clearly does not understand what public safety is all about,” said Cuomo w/ @emmagf.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/07/29/n...

I'm stunned how purported Democrats are so eager to get behind a terrible, uninspiring candidate who has repeatedly shown right-wing tendencies, 3 years before election season.

Do they want to ensure that even if we win, the country will be run by an old conservative asshole?
I’m stunned how the transgender community is so myopic in the distaste of Newsom… particularly in comparison to Trump/MAGA. I’m used to watching MAGA voters vote against their own interests… but the Newsom Derangement Syndrome on the part of the transgender respondents is saddening.

So, this guy claims to work for @bloomberg.com but he can't tell a million from a billion, and when called out on it, doesn't delete or offer a correction but disables replies and quote posts.

Why should anyone trust Bloomberg if their employees show such incompetence?

Look, you can post whatever you want, but I'd politely suggest that you, as someone who's written about protests like this, don't make the glaring logical mistake of presuming these protesters are trying to "dispel racist claims."
They're exposing racist claims, and fools like you, as racist.
