The president went on TV to attack political opponents and blame them for the killing of Charlie Kirk, even though we don’t know who shot him.
If there is anything this man can do to worsen the situation, he will do it. Despicable.

It is weird that the assassination of essentially a celebrity influencer is a bigger deal than the shooting of two top state legislators + their spouses

Judging by the shamefully opportunistic & politicizing rhetoric of some rightwingers on Twitter, & their cynical use of Charlie Kirk’s horrific murder for political point scoring, it’s almost as if Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman wasn’t murdered by a Trump-voting MAGA maniac just 12 weeks ago.

Last night, Poland recorded as many as 19 airspace violations by Russian drones coming from Belarus.
Polish and NATO troops were forced to engage Russian targets over NATO territory.
If NATO doesn’t set clear boundaries here, these probing missions by Russia won’t stop.

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

For everyone saying political violence has no place in this country…
Remember two Democratic legislators were shot in Minnesota just this year.
And America shrugged and moved on.

The moral squalor of Trump has brought us back to the basics — especially understanding the importance of checks and balances and separation of powers.
Both the Republican-controlled Congress and conservative Supreme Court Seem hellbent on abdicating their duties to a tyrant.

Is your personal data being weaponized against you when you shop?
Are you paying a different price for products than anyone else?
You may be thanks to a shady practice known as "surveillance pricing."
Rep. Greg Casar (D-TX) has introduced a bill to ban the practice.

Turns out Trump does draw, he also assaulted sex-trafficked little girls with his pal Jeffrey Epstein but you already knew that. So does the GOP.

We are not living in a democracy any longer when our criminal justice system is used to selectively punish the President's political opponents and give his loyalists and friends immunity. We are becoming a banana republic in front our eyes and we cannot normalize it.

Just spoke with my CDC sources.
They said RFK Jr. has ordered officials to hide tuberculosis cases, even as three active TB cases were just reported in Maine. He’s also suppressing bird flu reports.
Pandemics don’t start with viruses they start with secrecy.
RFK Jr. must resign now!
