Stephen Colbert: “Tonight we’re all Jimmy Kimmel…. With an autocrat, you can’t give an inch. If ABC thinks that this is going to satisfy the regime, they are woefully naive, and clearly they've never read The Children's Book If You Give a Mouse A Kimmel.”

Senator Bill Cassidy has just announced that Senator Mullen (R, verbal abuser and liar) has admitted he LIED when he said the meeting between Dr. Monarez and RFK Jr. was recorded.
She stood by her testimony in the face of these lies and abuse.
Mullen should be removed from office for this.

I usually like Ezra Klein's articles, even when I disagree. Not today. I do not think that "Kirk was practicing politics in exactly the right way".
Having said that, just to be clear: nothing justifies his heinous assassination. No one should be celebrating his death.

Instead of the media’s lazy posthumous takes, I am in favor of Kirk’s actual words being spread far and wide.

Feel like I’m going insane with the revisionist history that Charlie Kirk fostered open debate. He chilled speech and his targeting of professors for wrongthink led to threats, harassment, and being forced out of their jobs. His legacy is chilling speech right now, about him

I am 76 & I have had most of these vaccinations at one time or another. Also vaccinations against Covid, Tetanus, plus Cholera & Yellow Fever when travelling in foreign countries.
These prevented me catching horrible diseases & dying a gruesome death. They did not harm me, they protected me!

About two-thirds of U.S. adults expect the new tax law will help the rich, according to an AP-NORC poll. Most think it will do more to hurt than help low-income people. About half say it will do more harm than good for middle-class people.
Most US adults think the GOP tax bill will help the wealthy and harm the poor, AP-NORC poll finds
A new AP-NORC poll shows that while Republican elected officials are promoting their recently passed tax and spending bill as a win for working Americans, everyday Americans broadly see it as a win for the wealthy.
