Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory? Kirk’s murder is awful and ominous for this country. But no, we don’t need to honor him or “continue his work.”

We're witnessing the most aggressive, fanatical crackdown on free speech in my lifetime. The speed and breadth of government censorship and private sector and nonprofit capitulation has been astonishing. As has the lack of urgency/silence from people who've long claimed to care about this stuff.

Kirk didn't serve in the military or hold office. The war hero treatment -- half-mast flags, military guard, Air Force Two escort, calls for a statue at the Capitol or to lie in the Rotunda -- shows that for MAGA, service to Trump has become the highest, most honorable form of service.

At least they gave us the term “fuck plane.”

I am demanding that the Democrats invite Mullin’s accusers to testify about this weirdo behavior in painstaking detail. I want charts. Expert witnesses. Reenactments. via @samthielman.com www.mediaite.com/politics/mar...

This is what they said about tariffs, too. We must all be willing to endure some short term pain so our dumbass president can implement the policies that will ensure long term pain.

Grammar are woke

I HAVE FIVE BASIC, OBVIOUS DEMANDS TO RESTORE THE INTEGRITY OF ELECTIONS. BUT I CAN ONLY REMEMBER THREE OF THEM. AND TWO ARE ABOUT TRANS PEOPLE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

That OnMessage question would have justified a Canadian invasion to free Minneapolis.
