MAGA glorification of indoctrinated ignorance has declared war on science.

And this was all brought about because of trump & company and the rhetoric and lies being spread by this administration who doesn’t believe in science!

Thank you for this thread.

📌

I mask & get vaxed, sorry Maggots. What that tells u is: 1) I am protecting u from my germs, 2) I don't trust u 2 protect me. Now what's ur beef again about masks & vaxes? There's no logic behind it, just that u've been Trump-washed by an evil fiend from worse than hell, which doesn't say much 4u.

But tell me again about violent crime raging in DC. It’s always projection with right wingers.

He was protected by 50bs of body armor. The sandwich fell apart on contact.

📌

Lots of judicial illegal, and overreaching effort to punish the upset Washington DC resident who threw his sandwich at the heavily armed, unnecessary, "police-force"

At least he blew his own off at the end…

We are normalizing violence and nothing could make DJT happier.

Document. Protect. Prepare. There will be litigation

Thank the heroin addict

Republican/MAGAt/Agent Orange is POTUS, so the whole world is going to pretend it didn't happen. Why? Because anything else would hurt Donny Dipshit's fee fees, and it's clear no officials in Washington regardless of party give a shit about actual Americans.

The absurdity of that story is what gets it so much coverage. You have to agree.

Media: nothing here. Move on.WTF. If this had happened on Biden-time: Katie bar the door. Biden Inspires Major Insurrection! LETS GET HiM!

The cop was Black, they don’t care.

.... and another terrorist shot and killed a Minnesota State Representative and a State Senator and his wife .... and the media treated it as a 'local' news story. Well, 'local' news stories are a good indication of what this Country has become under Trump. Then there are masked ICE agents ....

📌

That was no regular "shooting." It was an act of terrorism. Just everyday American terrorism. Please sharpen your pen, Alex.

An anti-vaxxer domestic terrorist. Needs to be called out for what it is.

Wow. I didn’t hear a single thing about this.

Ran out of room. Yes this was a case of domestic terror and it just went away in a couple of days.

As were everyone in the neighborhood, those driving through the area, the rest of the CDC campus and all of the Emory campus.

Thank you for posting this. I can’t understand why this isn’t a bigger story. I guess it’s just another day in America but I think conspiracy theories are making a whole lot of people crazy and this guy just proves that. There has been so much violence perpetrated by conspiracy theorists. RFK Jr. 😡

Thanks for keeping this in the spotlight - that poor policeman & his family!😔

Just sickening on multiple levels. MAGA knows how to keep the truth from coming out. It's one of the only things it's good at.

You can attribute that to RFK Jr and associates.

He was a white MAGA mobster

500!!!

Not at all but 500 is scarier than 150 but of course we banned handguns decades ago so we don’t get this going on.

It's taking a while to find and count all the shell casings

It was the lead story in America for 90 minutes. Gross.

👀

This narrative is a gut punch. Thank you for synthesizing the meaning of the CDC shooting for a dazed, shell-shocked nation struck dumb by the administration's continuous eruption of chaos and destruction. We're witnessing a catastrophic event.

For about a minute. This should be in the news daily when reporting on what Trump claims are threats to public safety. Before the MAGA takeover, the FBI warned right-wing domestic terrorism such as this was a rising peril.

The lack of coverage was, unfortunately, a product of being drowned out by other Trump shenanigans. A quick Google search yielded several reports by MSM on the shooting and subsequent reports on the shooter. This administration is a master at distraction. Elevating stories like this is paramount.

I think every day about the CDC being under siege. Trumpism is a grave threat to the people who are actually protecting the public. So heartbroken for everyone trying to do their jobs there and for the slain officer and his family.

The response was to send in the National Guard... 550 miles away!

Imagine if it was an immigrant. Or a Muslim. Republicans would absolutely lose their collective shit.

They aren't distracted, they're complicit. A good reporter would link the terrorist leader and terrorist attack

This is the pro-life party in action

I appreciate you highlighting this horrific attack. My friend works in that CDC building and the trauma and "what if"s this past 9 days have been terrible. Agony on top of an already horrific time being a civil servant these past 8 months.

👹Gee Not a Peep from 'legacy' media!

There's been a number of posts .....here 👇

I've often thought that the next mass shooting needs to be at the NRA headquarters. They created this.

“They are sanitizing and popularizing state violence.” Mother Jones,as reported by Heather C.-R.

When discussing this topic, I think it is interesting that the police officer who gave his life in defense of our fellow people is not mentioned by the majority of posts. I understand the importance of this domestic terror incident and I once worked and lived in the area.

If the shooter or his family contact a preventable disease ... fuck em. RFK will have the cure.

What has been revealed about the shooter?

Good point, imagine if you will someone had fired those 500 shots at an ice headquarters

Pro-Trump mass shootings are a dog bites man story at this point, they happen all the time and always have the same "radicalized in far right corners of the internet" explanation

Because we elected the terrorist leader to the highest office

Well the billionaires own the media and of course they love it

This is who the 2nd Amendment people are. They will not fight back against Trump because they are Trump. These a-holes agree with everything Trump does as long as it owns the Libs, and immigrants are to blame. Trump has given them permission to be as cruel and vicious as they want.

I'd ALWAYS mention that it was because of the stochastic domestic terrorism of RFK

It seemed to have been kept a bit quiet in US news. www.cbc.ca/news/world/c...

I haven’t heard a thing about this until now!!🤯

Light a candle for Officer David Rose.

This is on RFK Jr, who showed up three days after the shooting, and every last dunce fuelling ideological hostility toward health professionals and institutions

Jesus Christ

USA doesn't do negative news any more. Chairman Trump presides over all media.

Last time I heard that sound was at Kent State University when the National Guard was firing at unarmed students. 13 seconds changed my life forever. And now the Guard is back to aim at more unarmed human beings. I’m haunted by that sound.

please cover this @maddow.msnbc.com

Everyone should totally have access to "hunting rifles" like that. Those sounds make you understand exactly why trained officers don't run into buildings when a mass shooter is inside.

Wow holy cow, that's extremely uncomfortably close. Thank you for that perspective.

What can we do? Political and social organization Supporting victims of persecution Maintain support for democratic values and human rights. Contrary to what former Republican conservatives say (Tom Nichols)

I’m sure the folks at CFC were in the Rs thoughts and prayers!

😳

I don't think that the 500 number is correct. Initial reporting said 180 with the rest being bullets recovered from the scene shot by police.

My open letter to Mr. Martin of Maine.

For fuck sake.

I think it's supposed to be so that The People can resist tyranny, or something?

📌

Seems like a cause for the national guard and the chump personal policy to be deployed. But a red state is exempt from chump authoritarianism.

Wall working as intended

500 shots. With the Right To Not Reload, isn't that like two minutes?

special shout out to motherfucking Norway, who unironically see themselves as the most civilized and progressive place on earth while doing an absolute fucktonne of evil shit that nobody takes any notice of because they're rich and blond and have nice fjords and generous paid parental leave

You should check out suicides. It's even higher, sadly.

Welcome to trump's world ... full of hate & guns ...

Well since the kids at Sandy Hook would have graduated in 2024, that should answer your question. They didn't care about first graders.

How did he get to the second floor of a CVS with five guns? How was he allowed to shoot from his sniper position so long in a heavily policed area across from Emory U and CDC headquarters?

Rachel Maddow - were you aware that the MSNBC app had ads for handguns posted between news stories yesterday? I protested. They said they'd look into it. Uh-huh...

GOP’s America

the weekends are for golfing. maybe get around to it monday or tuesday noonish or so...

In the US, we can get ammo easier than we can get cold medicines.

PATRICK WHITE 31YO PRIDE OF KENNESAW :mandatory gun & ammo ownership :rep’d by bleach blonde bad built bitch body aka three toes sasquatch Was fomented by Bobby Kennedy’s miscreant junkie son Patrick WHITE murdered a Marine vet/first year LEO w/ 3 👦🏾 Now begin singing “America the Beautiful”

8/18/2025 Rachel Maddow s hour was disappointing at best. Nationwide Protests AGAIN more commercial breaks than show. I am a HUGE loyal fan of hers but I can see it changing at least tonight. Hope I’m off base.

Yes, angry white man, sadly.

Not hearing this but hearing lots about what will happen to you if you even make a comment to an ice agent .

Yet Republicans don't want to do one damn thing to help reduce gun violence and gun sales. That's sad and disgusting, those Republicans should not go back to elective office.

Unacceptable

There's not nothing. Public media covered it well: www.pbs.org/newshour/nat... The Washington Post etc., also ran something, even if they didn't prioritize the story as much as I would have liked. I'm disappointed it wasn't covered more, considering the magnitude and implications of the attack.

Thank you for calling it what it was domestic terrorism.

Grow up

What?

Bluesky filters work, and OP didn't bowlderize any words in the above posts. Anything can be triggering. You have tools to minimize your exposure to your personal triggers.

Have you joined the regime, that you want to keep this stuff quiet?

While I understand and sympathize with your sentiment, there does come a time when those of us who have experienced trauma must learn to process it and help ourselves overcome it. We cannot expect everyone in the world to know what will trigger us. We will be disappointed every time.
