Both of the co-founders of Turning Point USA died from things that were preventable, but which they mocked and urged this nation to ignore. Bill Montgomery was killed in 2020 by COVID and Charlie Kirk was killed in 2025 by gun violence.

Here’s a story that’s becoming all too common: federal immigration agents using racial and ethnic profiling as a rationale for stopping, questioning and detaining U.S. citizens who they suspect are undocumented.

The far right support policies that result in the deaths of immigrants, pregnant women, children in schools, poor people, Trans and gay people. The suffering being inflicted in America today by people in power & people with money is unsustainable.

Unprovoked wars in the Middle East aren't sexy, short, or successful.
That MAGA hat is red with the blood of Americans who will die bc of this: tourists, aid workers, embassy employees, service members.
The threat is from all muslim extremists, not Iran's nuclear weapons.

Unprovoked wars aren't sexy, they're self-destructive. They inflict as much pain on us, if not more, than it does on the "enemy." It destroys lives, marriages, families.

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:
1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long
All lies.

Fun fact:
Congress voted in 2020 to ban Trump from attacking Iran without Congressional approval, but he vetoed it - and they didn’t have 2/3 to override the veto.
