The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

This is an important thread. It seems weirdly disrespectful to try to turn Kirk into something he clearly despised.
As someone who spent many hours listening to Kirk’s show on AM radio, I would say that he made Rush Limbaugh seem like Walter Cronkite by comparison, in terms of rhetorical tone and empirical rigor. The subtext of every show was “You don’t hate the left enough.”

It’s one thing to believe that our borders need to be more secure, and another entirely to post posturing, taunting memes about immigrant prisoners dying of heat stroke and being fed to alligators.

Mike Johnson just said if you are for reducing the deficit, this bill is for you.
The bill adds 3-4 trillion dollars to the deficit.

A powerful message to opposition leaders, dissidents, cooperators, operatives and allies in Iran, Russia, and around the globe. After you are done risking your life to help us, we will sell you out and screw you over. Because the current govt will use you and discard you.

for all of the praise of law enforcement we've seen since Saturday, it's now clear cops had at least two opportunities to prevent Vance Boelter from murdering Melissa Hortman and her husband but failed to do so.

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

Trump told West Point cadets at their graduation that he wouldn't be able to shake their hands, a tradition among US presidents, because he had urgent matters to deal with on China and Russia.
This was him "dealing" with China and Russia moments later. He went golfing.

Boy, do we need more kindness right about now.
🧵I've been doing a lot of thinking lately about kindness since I've moved here to Aotearoa New Zealand and would like to share some thoughts. (Please bear with me!):
1. Kindness is learned. It's not innate. People are taught kindness by other people. We are creatures that learn by example.

NEW: reports today from @l-toczylowski.bsky.social and others that ICE has begun efforts to dismiss cases pending in immigration court for less than two years — so that they can then immediately arrest the same people and put them through “expedited removal,” skipping the court process entirely.

If you have to repeatedly break the law to arrest those you claim have broken the law, you’re not enforcing the law.
ICE has morphed into a terrorizing Gestapo-like goon squad.
They must be held accountable.
