What an evil and dangerous (and completely false) thing for a Vice President of the United States to say. How dare he.

Vance: "While our side of the aisle certainly has its crazies, it is a statistical fact that most of the lunatics in American politics today are proud members of the far-Left."

And yes, I was the last Black full-time columnist in the Opinion section. Washington Post -- operating in a city which for a long time has been majority Black, is now without any full-time Black opinion writers.

Karen Attiah, a black woman, got fired for A: accurately quoting what Charlie Kirk said about Black women B: Accurately observing that most white Americans seem permissive of white violence. It's bullshit, but almost expected in this white supremacist country.

Some personal news: I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting. Thread incoming. substack.com/@karenattiah...

True, BUT - WE can ALL honor Charlie Kirk’s words & legacy by RELEASING THE EPSTEIN FILES! WE can ALL get behind him & promote this gesture of unity & accountability & offer justice for all those who have been abused by power. REPOST if you agree #HealOurNation #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

So even as we condemn political violence, we need to be clear of the legacy of Turning Point USA. Those who are whitewashing its work as a “free speech and debate” organization are willfully obscuring the truth. 8/

Y'know that Guardian article which cited an anonymous friend of Tyler Robinson claiming he was the only "leftist" in his family? It just got updated after the "verified source" decided he couldn't remember his "relationship" with the accused shooter well enough to be quoted

It’s also worth noting that as soon as it became clear the Trump shooter had no real legible politics and certainly not from “the left” he completely vanished into anonymity. No one knows his name.

Is it just me or does this share a lot of commonalities with the attempted Trump assassination last summer? Maybe worth exploring those

Q: My condolences on the loss of your friend Charlie Kirk. How are you holding up? TRUMP: I think very good. And by the way, right there you see all the trucks. They just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House, which is something they've been trying to get for about 150 years.

The thing that 'mainstream' Republicans just have never noticed is that the loons on their side will come for them first. They're nearer, and in a gerrymandered world, the real enemy is the person you face in the primary. The real rival is someone selling more MAGA apparel than you.

Watching the cable news commentary on the bullet engravings is wild because none of these people seem to realize that the content of the engravings are indicative of extremely online meme brain rot

And they are blathering on about how great law enforcement is when the guy’s dad turned him in. Patel is still an idiot.

So after days of Republicans blaming and vilifying Democrats and trans people for Kirk’s murder despite having no clue who the person was, we find out it’s a white guy from a Republican family in Utah who loved guns.

Kathleen reposted

the right's struggle to find or invent trans identities in every shooter and every person they dislike is, in its own way, a slow dawning realization that gender is an idea, and one that often lacks clear physical signals and thus is often invoked through repetitious cultural rituals

Kash Patel knows he’s drowning. They sat on the video of the culprit for six hours, delaying the joint press conference just so he could fly in and stand there like a misplaced prop. All this after they axed the seasoned SLC FBI bureau chief and gutted the domestic-terror unit. Total incompetence.

I think an FBI director who is more interested in posting news and narrative that will please the president than preventing or solving crimes is going to prove increasingly obvious.

“No way to prevent this,” says only nation where this regularly happens.

Members of Congress are beginning to believe that political assassinations are a normal part of public life in America. “It’s something we’re going to have to live with,” Rep. Andy Harris told NOTUS. www.notus.org/congress/cha...

Hours after Fox News' Lawrence Jones said there is only "one side that continues to say that the other side is evil and hateful," GOP Rep. Bob Onder said that the American left's ideology is "pure evil," they "hate good" and they "embrace the evil."

Fox News' Lawrence Jones: "No side owns political violence; both sides have participated in this. But there is one side that continues to say that the other side is evil and hateful." Trump has called Democrats the "enemies from within," and Jones' colleague Harris Faulkner said Hillary was"evil."
