#charliekirk. All signs point to the shooter being a Republican who did not like Kirk's hateful rhetoric. Yet many want to use this tragedy to target organizations on the left.

Life under Trump’s D.C. takeover is not what you think
Pretty much anyone living in D.C. can see every day that the White House’s justification is a lie.

Interesting read. I'm into punk rock, so a lot of bands added a game element to their records. They might include a zine or symbols in their artwork. I would think it makes it more fun.

What we lose in the gamification of music
Music shouldn't be treated like a game to master — it should be treated like something that affects and potentially changes you.

Opinion | It’s well past time to start talking about Trump’s decline
The president’s story made no sense — and he also doesn't always appear to know what his administration is doing.

Repugnicants went off for years about Pizzagate, a made up child trafficking Scandal and now they dismiss a real child trafficking Scandal. I wonder why? Hmm, Maybe it is because of who was involved in each.?

Our system is based on cheap labor. First it was free labor, then wave after wave of immigrants. This is not new. It took a turn towards socialism and the Wobblies to scare the oligarchs into reform. The rich exploit until they can't squeeze any more then the people rise up and reset it.Rise Up!
If undocumented workers with no criminal history are being dragged from job sites that they’ve worked at for years, then when do the CEOs, contractors, and farm owners who employed them start getting handcuffed? Or is that not how “justice” works in America?

The rich would do well to heed history. Economic inequality brings about political instability. History provides us examples in the fall of Rome, the French revolution, and the rise of fascism in the 1930s. www.foreignaffairs.com/united-state...

Nothing less than a bold new regime of domestic and international taxes will save wealthy democracies and economies from the distortions and dangers of rampant inequality.

We can save democracy by creating a more just tax system and lowering inequality. If we don't we will probably experience either a push for fascism from the far right, or a push for communism / socialism from the far left. 1 of 2

Why is helping poor, old people fraud but giving Elon and other billionaires subsidies and tax breaks not? Cut the real fat and stop subsidizing the oligarchs. Stop their payments and see how they respond.
Trump’s commerce secretary Howard Lutnick says if Social Security skipped a check, his mother-in-law wouldn’t complain—and if you would, it indicates you are probably a fraudster.

Bernie Sanders and AOC rally in Tempe, AZ. Too late to get in. As I drove by there were about 2,000 people in line waiting to get in. I watched probably 200 cars decide they did not want to be in line and leave. I will estimate that probably 10,000 people showed up. The venue holds 5000.

The emperor has no clothes! The emperor has no brain! In fact, lately I think the emperor may be insane. How can noone see, how can no one know? This con man is robbing us blind. This con man doesn't want you to see what's behind. Mad with power, mad with greed. He says fascism is what we need.

Trump is a traitor! Between pardoning January 6th insurrectionists and currently giving Putin everything he could ever dream of, no president has betrayed his country like this. Today Trump ordered our cyber ops to stop fighting Russian attacks. What the fuck?

“Shortly after Friday’s exchange, the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) announced that it launched a Title IX violation investigation into Maine’s Department of Education and one of its school districts.”
Democrat Janet Mills had a heated exchange with Trump after he threatened to withhold federal funds to states that don't obey his executive order.
