He argued for death and intolerance.
It doesn't matter how polite a bigot is, they're still a bigot.
By ignoring or sidelining Kirk's bigotry, you are lying to yourself and us about who he was.
BUT you are being interestingly honest to us about who YOU are...

And the AP have called the two referendum questions in Maine:
1. NO to disenfranchising voters needlessly, and
2. YES to allowing courts to bar people shown to be violent from having dangerous weapons.
With that plus the other good election news, I'll sleep soundly tonight.

I am begging Democratic politicians to stop asking us to "help the Republicans lean how to be nice."
They know how to be nice. They know the consequences of what they're doing.
They don't care.

Millions of Americans are already learning that their health insurance costs for 2026 are going way up.
I want to hear from you so we can make this impossible for the GOP to ignore the consequences of their policies.
If your premiums are going up, reply below and please share your story.

Gavin once again proving his only principle is opportunism.
Imagine lionizing a white nationalist who celebrated violence against his political opponents - that's what Charlie Kirk was, and that's what @governor.ca.gov is doing here.

The best way to honor Charlie's memory is to continue his work: engage with each other, across ideology, through spirited discourse. In a democracy, ideas are tested through words and good-faith debate — never through violence.

Monday’s mass shooting may put concerns over gun violence back on voters’ minds, and have already lead some to scrutinize Mr. Mamdani for his views on policing. “He clearly does not understand what public safety is all about,” said Cuomo w/ @emmagf.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/07/29/n...

I'm stunned how purported Democrats are so eager to get behind a terrible, uninspiring candidate who has repeatedly shown right-wing tendencies, 3 years before election season.
Do they want to ensure that even if we win, the country will be run by an old conservative asshole?

I’m stunned how the transgender community is so myopic in the distaste of Newsom… particularly in comparison to Trump/MAGA. I’m used to watching MAGA voters vote against their own interests… but the Newsom Derangement Syndrome on the part of the transgender respondents is saddening.

So, this guy claims to work for @bloomberg.com but he can't tell a million from a billion, and when called out on it, doesn't delete or offer a correction but disables replies and quote posts.
Why should anyone trust Bloomberg if their employees show such incompetence?

Look, you can post whatever you want, but I'd politely suggest that you, as someone who's written about protests like this, don't make the glaring logical mistake of presuming these protesters are trying to "dispel racist claims."
They're exposing racist claims, and fools like you, as racist.

It's only corruption if it comes from the Corrupt region of southern France.
Otherwise it's just sparkling grift.

Corruption requires explict quid pro quo. It is not corrupt to take an action that aligns with the interest of a person who gives you a gift, unless the official action was in direct response to that gift--a bribe. Terms matter. Accuracy and fairness matters. Regardless of what social media wants.
