And Trump never acknowledged them

But a white supremacist is praised

They only care when one of their own is harmed, or in this instance, killed. Everyone else, every dead kid, is just a statistic or someone to be ignored.

Meanwhile, Tim Walz ensured the last bills she worked on got signed 🩶🗽 #melissahortman #timwalz bsky.app/profile/gove...

He might have struggled. When your audience is laughing at you, you might not be persuading them.

That was after Nancy Mace had already lost her marbles on the House floor and started screaming and having a meltdown because Sarah Jacobs pointed out that gender affirming care isn't just for trans people. Mace took it as a personal insult aimed at her. The woman is not well.

I said it yesterday and I just keep thinking it every time I check the news: The GOP's overreaction and underreaction to certain things never ceases to boggle my fucking mind.

And from Trump: crickets, not an order to lower flags to half mast.

And there weren’t a bunch of posts saying “it doesn’t matter what side you’re on, political violence is unacceptable.” Oh no. They blamed the “radical left”. Now they are still blaming the “radical left”. They stoke the flames, feign shock when violence occurs, blame the dems (it’s not), and repeat.

This attack is your war Mikey! Kirk, doesn’t compare to the innocents of the Hortman/Hoffman attacks! A war from within will attack more w/senseless killing! You don’t get to choose which is honorable and which isn’t! But I’ll pray for the innocent over the hater everytime!

Another piece of shit human, whose solution to every political issue is to kill the opposition...

#fact

Exactly

Can we move on from Saint Charlie now? Just like Republicans did the next day after the murders in Minnesota.

They also had a school shooting the same day...

Trump said why would I call the Governor of Minnesota he's wacky and crazy !

The hypocrisy is blatant. They didn’t help get Trump elected, so they were gun fodder.

Exactly

Is one life more important than another?

Listen to Michel Martin talk to Matt Schlapp on NPR this morning. She let him blather, and then brought this up. His reaction was ridiculous.

And crickets from the president

👆

I totally agree how sad & pathetic. It's sad they are using Kirk's (didn't care for him) death to get to Democrats & win the '26 - '28 election the convicted felon is going to get ppl killed which he would love 🤬

Maybe if they had been foresighted and self-promoting enough to use lying to generate hate and fear.

This. 🥲

… 🤮🤮🤮🤮

Well of course, to the right wing Kirk was one of them and a hero, to them the people gunned down in their home is less competition.

But we on the left need to turn down the rhetoric.....

I'm so sick of the hypocrisy

How awful that this happened and how awful that their deaths were never acknowledged the way Mr Kirk is being honored. This is a big message to all of us

💯

The whole Kirk-Kirk-Kirk world, including in the House of Rep, is a bit sickening to me. Not like there are a lot of other, bigger problems to be covered.

RIGHT!!! So disgusting

Oficials discovered Boelter had a "hit list" of 45 elected officials, who were all Democrats. Five people killed that day. www.distractify.com/p/who-shot-m...

Release the full unedited abstain files

Whose fault is that? The democrats.

On this topic, I had a nice supper of hand breaded fresh fish and fries with a decentish coleslaw. You?

Why did they mock it? 🥺 ( What is WRONG with these people?)

Here's the reality, in a vast SEA of Ezra-Klein *horse-shit*.

💔💔💔

But sure let's make a big deal about DAVID DUKE 2.0

Trump is leader of MAGATs only. They elected him and they can have him.

Notice anything here?

Well, I'm sorry they're gone.

This is the constant double standard we endure. Mocking and derision by Republicans of victims considered progressive, and mocking and derision of progressives when victims are right wing. And the media plays along with it all.

This was one of my first thoughts after I heard about Kirk. Their story deserved so much more attention than the MSM gave it. But Kirks death will be heavily covered for months to come.

This is pathetic. Gun violence is about the use guns. “Let's not use faith, false thoughts and prayers to gloss over the fight for needed gun reform. We are sick and tired of living in this world of preventable mass death because of an extreme minority that has hijacked our democracy."

I'm not looking for 'tit-for-tat,' but I am still shocked how fast these politically-motivated assaults/murders dropped off the news feeds.

Just going to leave these here:

Thoughts & prayers only for trump followers. Everyone else sucks & egg. False religion for political theater. Rs/Maga/Orange one

In fact that senator was Mike Lee. And what state does he proudly represent? Utah. Hmmm. 🤔

😡😢

Did anyone on the left ask for a moment of silence?

Despicable

And the best Trump could do was insult Gov Tim Walz.

Exactly!

Above all the little #Kids killed in their Classrooms every single day,the Republicans said that Guns are not the problem but guess it is now ??They normalize, Cheer, Mock all the people who have been victims of violence & threat by MAGA supporters,forgetting what goes around,comes around in life..

Trump literally said in Fox News today that he didn’t care about fixing unities because when the right commit violence it’s justified and the left is the problem. If they won’t denounce those comments, how do you maintain civility with ppl like that?

Yes on the BS hypocrisy, but also, personally, I think the flag should never be lowered to half-staff. Wrote on that a few years ago and yesterday. andyjabbour.medium.com/the-chair-is...
