The mainstream media loves making it seam like dysfunction in Washington is coming from both parties.

Hello?

Much of the GOP no longer accepts the rule of law, or the norms of democracy, or the legitimacy of the opposing party.

Enough of the false equivalence.

Nobody wants violence. It’s important to remember there are two types of violence. Charlie Kirk was violent with every word he spoke. So the tributes and flags being flown at half mast make me question the intelligence of our entire country.

Christopher Webb @cwebbonline.com · Sep 12

Big sigh. Watch this.

Can you see why the Yankees’ moment of silence, the lowered flags, the promise of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, feel like a gut punch to the very people he spent years targeting?

No one wished death on this man, but what we’re seeing right now is too f*cking much.
