A gunman tried to silence my wife in an extreme act of political violence.
Now, Trump has called for my execution because he didn’t like what I had to say.
Gabby and I know, when others try to silence you, you must keep speaking out — and that’s exactly what we’re going to do.

The "common good" is a set of shared values about what we owe one another as citizens who are bound together in the same society. A concern for the common good—keeping the common good in mind—is a moral attitude. It recognizes that we’re all in it together.

I wonder if the South Korean #Hyundai workers will tell stories of going overseas to a technologically backward country, with the aim of providing training and work opportunities for the natives. But the uncivilised natives were frightened by change and technology and locked them up. 🤔 #USPolitics

Mainstream pundits have instantly sanitized and ignored Charlie Kirk's core political project and its impacts. He has been remembered by the mainstream press as someone they merely disagreed with, a debate me-guy whose words and actions had zero consequences:

In an urgent clarion call to Democratic leaders, as the government funding fight heats up once again, Jay Kuo argues it's time for decisive leadership. It's time to stand up to fight MAGA fascism. It's time to demand concessions. And if you don't get them, shut down the government if you must.

Because other celestial objects are moving too, it’s easy to forget that as our planets and moons revolve around the sun, it’s moving around the core of a galaxy that’s moving “outward.”
