In case you missed it, a highly credible conservative source who literally wrote the memo on what is an impeachable offense. Should be taught in schools. (Will be, if we ever get Trump out of office.)

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

We all value safety--but not military force unleashed in our streets. When the White House skews crime statistics to justify city takeovers, how does that keep us safe? We deserve proven protections, not political power plays. #TruthBrigade truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/YbsagPYm

Fundamentalism is a huge problem, I agree, and women are the ones who feel the brunt of that huge problem. But, I must ask you, who said Londoners are practicing Sharia law? Trump did. Who has been a proven liar for nearly the entirety of his life? Trump has. Why do you believe him?

For the record.

My posts were not even about Kirk directly, but about America's apathy towards political violence, and the coddling of white male shooters and hate peddlers.

I was fired because I mentioned race: white men and violence-- that was my "gross misconduct."

So messed up. Jimmy Kimmel didn't say anything directly about Charlie Kirk, either. This is an epidemic of censorship.
