The "radical left" had nothing to do with the horrifying assassination of Charlie Kirk, which all Democratic Party leaders have condemned and which I too condemn as a mere Democratic voter.

insane that people are getting in trouble for just quoting Charlie Kirk point blank. many of these people are not even expressing support for what happened to him, just quoting him & questioning double standards in how we respond to violence. we live in a far-right culture

What is the problem? Everybody dies, right, Senator?
In a perfect world, we’d all just say: I feel so sorry for his small children.
These very powerful people force me to say things like: if you want to draw up a sheet of paper, because you may be too stupid to do this yourself, side by side with me of the domestic body count of political violence…

Guys, I know you all still cling to conspiracy theories about Merrick Garland bc ... well, you watch too many TV lawyers who knew fuckall about the investigation.
But this is a fact. A trial was scheduled to happen 3 years after Jan6, just like Bolsonaro got.
Who killed it? John Roberts.

Clark: If they want to move forward with a spending plan that continues making these cuts — and just this week they’re talking about more cuts to mental health and our public health infrastructure—if they want to do that, they can do it without a single Democratic vote.

The president went on TV to attack political opponents and blame them for the killing of Charlie Kirk, even though we don’t know who shot him.
If there is anything this man can do to worsen the situation, he will do it. Despicable.

NEW: No, Charlie Kirk was not practicing politics the right way. That's what Ezra Klein said. We can condemn this heinous assassination but also recognize that with his 2020 election denialism and extremist rhetoric, Kirk built his movement with falsehoods and in a wrong and divisive manner.

I concur. RKF Jr. fights like hell for quackery. Democrats need to fight like hell for science, health, and rationality.
Wow. New NBC poll finds 78% support vaccines, including 72% of independents and 67% of Republicans.
As I keep trying to argue, Democrats should polarize the shit out of the vaccine/public health debate. Make people take sides. It will split Republicans and MAGA.

Trump/RFK are decapitating our public health system, a pillar of American greatness. So Dem Govs should scour every corner of the law for creative new ways to defend their people from this madness.
Dems should polarize this debate to the max.

About this Florida vaccine story:
When they were little - 1 yr and 3 1/2 - my two older boys, who’d had all their shots, got whooping cough.
We asked their pediatrician what would’ve happened if they hadn’t been vaccinated.
“Oh, they’d have died.”
