No matter what you think about Charlie Kirk, one thing is clear. The Conservative Party is at war with itself, and the majority liberals in this country are paying the price.

We warned you about Project 2025. Well, it’s here…
Day by day, Project 2025 is being written into existence by the Trump administration and its allies in Congress. And there’s another plan in the works as conservatives prepare to “do it all over again,” says Angelo Carusone, chair and president of Media Matters for America.
Trump orders flags throughout the United States lowered to 'Half Mast' until Sunday evening in honor of Charlie Kirk.
This honor was never extended to any schoolchildren gunned down in their classrooms or Democrats murdered in political violence in Minnesota. When Paul Pelosi was nearly murdered, Republicans cracked jokes and spread conspiracy theories.
If we want to step back from political violence, we need leaders who respect others, not just play politics.
#Trump demands #NATO action on #Russian oil BEFORE any #US sanctions.
Ceding US leadership, one day at a time.

Proud to share my new op-ed in @TIME: "Antisemitism in the Shadow of a Justified Outrage." Amid rightful anger over Gaza's crisis, we can't ignore rising antisemitism. Let's build solidarity through empathy.

Day Time TV, US Pol, Chilling
"Fox and Friends" is a day time TV news program, which once meant light news and discussions. Three days ago one of their hosts said that homeless people should be exterminated by "lethal injection."
This remark has gotten the most attention but it was in the context of a "conversation" between the hosts laced with misinformation. eg. the suggestion that there are "billions of dollars" for "mental health" services for homeless people.
@AlliFlowers @pandorablake @gimulnautti That there are rival orgs of Trumpy droogs now is just weird
@gleick Heads up: Department of War firing people for having such an opinion…this scares me more than the civilian firings because there’s not as much recourse…
The overwhelming majority of mass shootings have been by conservative extremists (75%) compared to domestic Muslim extremists (20%) or liberal/leftist extremists (4%).
Republicans are going to counter by saying "This information is false because it is from the Jews" just before saying "You are antisemitic because you criticize the genocide in Gaza" because consistency is not their strong suit.

Trump is afraid of Pritzker.
I know it is easy to feel overwhelmed and pessimistic (I'm often both, lately), but the fact that Trump is afraid of Pritzker should let you know that fighting back matters.

Never a dull moment for Texas's most corrupt public official. @MrScarce
Charlie Kirk was killed by other conservatives, probably because he demanded the release of the Epstein Files.
If you are mad about his killing, then you need to take up his demand that the Epstein files be released without any criminal names redacted.
But if you want to attack a political ideology over his killing, attack conservatives; they are the ones who killed him.
