The political assassination of the Speaker of the Minnesota House was a terrible harbinger for our democracy. The profound silence from Republicans afterwards was worse.
The political assassination of Charlie Kirk is a terrible harbinger for our democracy. Again, the response is antidemocratic.

Hey HB folks, heads up. A local white nationalist with a history of violence, Ryan Sanchez, is holding a vigil for Charlie Kirk on the pier at 7PM. He’s been calling for violence against the left for a long time and has been actively recruiting. Advise you stay away, nothing good will happen.

Before knowing all the facts, voices on the right are now exploiting the tragic death of Charlie Kirk & calling for all-out war on the left. This is sad, but not surprising, at a time when we should all be denouncing political violence. They were not so upset when Minn. Democrats were assassinated.

I'm genuinely confused at so much of my feed being filled with "Don't celebrate Charlie Kirk being shot **because** this gives Trump the go ahead to violently crush opposition." Did you mean to add "faster" to the end of that sentence? Like, he wasn't waiting for an impetus. It's happening already

what donald trump wants more than anything is video of american soldiers gunning down american citizens
This could end up very badly given what we know of Rules on Use of Force (RUF) for Guard in DC. And very different training regimens compared to local police.
Wall Street Journal reporting:
"National Guard troops deployed to Washington, D.C. are preparing to carry weapons in the coming days."

The shift comes after defense officials said the soldiers deployed to the capital wouldn’t be armed.

The military takeover of Washington is not a “distraction” from Epstein. It’s a military takeover of Washington, which is an even bigger deal, and those of us who kill brain cells reporting on this stuff knows it’s been an explicit goal since before the election.

Yes, it is a consequence and not an accidental one.
A major consequence of chronically defunding social sciences is that people have no knowledge of what propaganda is, what it looks like and how it works.

This is a BIG DEAL. @housedemocrats.bsky.social and @democrats.senate.gov need to come back to D.C. and stand united to denounce this abuse of power. This cannot be business as usual.
Trump mentions NYC, Baltimore, and Oakland, says "they're so far gone," and adds, "this will go further. We'll starting very strongly with DC."

The public reaction to the MLK files has been intense—but brief. In the age of viral distraction, the Trump administration understands that headlines, not substance, shape public memory. But Bernice King’s comment—has proven stickier than most, generating hashtag #NowDoTheEpsteinFiles.
Trump Just Unsealed MLK’s FBI Files—But Why Now?
MLK’s files are out. Epstein’s still aren’t. Why now? ? The answer may have more to do with Trump and Epstein than King.

Exactly! Mamdani's most "radical" proposals — free buses, government grocery stores, higher taxes on the wealthy, a huge increase in affordable housing — really aren't that radical.
The centrist meltdown has to be about something else.

on Mamdani's city-run groceries idea, "laboratories of democracy" are one of the great U.S. strengths - even if you don't think it's likely to work, it's really interesting to see it tested. Maybe it'll be really successful! Maybe it'll fail for reasons we don't expect!
