@chrislhayes.bsky.social Comments are closed at the NYT so... What if you didn't show clips or quotes of the fascist but paraphrased and proceeded with your analysis? What if you said "the federal government committed this crime today...." instead of referring to the perpetrator by name?

Whether Kirk's killer is a right wing or left wing nut, the guilt lies with the Republican right that insists any nutcase can buy a gun, even an assault weapon. Every gun murder in this country, no matter what the motive, is the fault of the Republican right. #CharlieKirk #guncontrol #Robinson

Supporters of the 2nd amendment argue they need guns to fight tyranny should the government overstep. (Classic conservatives believe in limited government.)
Now that the government has overstepped & many gun owners seem OK with tyranny, what is the rational for the 2nd amendment? #tyranny #guns

Trump threatened to revoke ABC's FCC license, and ABC caved. ABC could win in against this abuse of presidential power in a lower court, but if it reached the corrupt SCOTUS, who knows. Fascism in full swing. #@JimmyKimmel.com #censorship

I've long watched @msnbc.com, even after it replaced some top hosts. I'll miss @chrislhayes.bsky.social & others, but how can I trust a network that censors political analysts? Who needs Fox when MSNBC does MAGA's bidding? #MatthewDowd www.nytimes.com/2025/09/11/u...

My late night go-to is Jimmy Kimmel, whose monologues are sharper & funnier than Colbert's. But the Colbert cancellation should disturb anyone, fans or not. It comes after Colbert criticized CBS/Paramount for caving to Trump. When we censor our comics, it's all over.

If the floods are an act of God, shouldn't God be tried for mass murder? If they aren't, shouldn't we do something to stem the progression of climate change? Shouldn't we fund the National Weather Service so we are informed and warned?

It would be nice to have regime change in Iran--and even nicer to have it here.

Darren Criss thanked his teachers at the American Conservatory Theater but not at Michigan. I'm a UM alum who once was proud of that. Now that UM caved and dismantled DEI, I'm ashamed. I wonder if Criss feels the same. #DarrenCriss #UniversityofMichigan

Grosse Pointe Garden Society is an entirely original mystery. Others make us wonder who done it, how it was done, or how a detective will catch the culprit. In GPGS, we wonder who the victim is through most of the season. Great story & terrific acting ensemble. Too good to last--cancelled.

Until this administration, even the worst criminals have been given due process--the really really worst ones, like Trump.
