The murder of Charlie Kirk was criminal, wrong, and should be condemned.

And Charlie Kirk was a horrible, hateful man who spent his life radicalizing young people to embrace their worst demons by targeting women, people of color, immigrants, and the marginalized.

I refuse to sanitize him.

THERE!
I fixed it for you!
Civics101: The *Election Winners of the Majority Party* make the laws, determine the punishments, set the tax brackets, and shape the judiciary. So be political. Pick a side. Because neutrality helps the oppressor. Don't be too good for politics. Help Democrats WIN.

Project 2026 picture of congress map showing vast majority BLUE Democrats.

I heard that too! WTH!??

Respectfully, saw you on @kenharbaugh.bsky.social YouTube and you said you're not a Democrat. It takes a team to beat a team. Anyone unaffiliated is part of the problem and privileged AF. It must stop. Neutrality helps the oppressor. Pick a side! Be a Democrat and help Democrats win electoral power.

Everything is political. AND THIS IS WHY REPUBLICANS DO EVERYTHING TO SUPPRESS THE VOTE. So get to your county's Democratic party headquarters, help organize YOUR precinct, and do everything you can to help get out the vote for Democrats.

In 2016, Hillary wasn't good enough for the left, & just ~80,000 votes across three states, so Trump got three Supreme Court justices and more tax cuts for the wealthy.
The election winners of the MAJORITY party make the laws, determine the punishments, set the tax brackets, and shape the judiciary.

We are in this awful situation because Democrats lost elections. e.g. In 2000, Gore wasn't good enough for the far left and ~90,000 people in Florida voted for Nader. That gave Bush two wars, two Supreme Court justices, and tax cuts for the wealthiest.

...civil rights, and the wealthiest billionaires and multi-millionaires would pay *WAY MORE* taxes.
This is all an electoral issue. Democrats must win elections.
We must win the ELECTORAL POWER to pass good laws that protect people and the planet.

The costs (time and money) of elections would plummet.
We would have clean air and water, enforcement of safety regulations, gun safety, higher wages, Social Security assurance, Medicare for all (healthcare for all), excellent Public Schools, strong unions, the strongest middle class, ....

If everybody understood these simple concepts, registered to vote accordingly, vetted and backed loyal candidates in the primaries, and then stood together ("fell in line") in the generals (instead of 'falling in love'), then the Republicans would barely win another election!

There are no perfect candidates because there are no perfect people. There is no single person who can fix this. It takes a team to beat a team. Individuals don't pass laws, parties pass laws. The Democrats (left) fight for the bottom. The Republicans (so-called 'right') fight for the top. #VoteBlue

Statement from DNC Chair Ken Martin on the targeted murder of Minnesota Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and the shooting of Senator John Hoffman, which includes the following: 'This morning, like so many Minnesotans, my heart is broken. My family—and our entire DFL community—are devastated to learn of the targeted, senseless murders of Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark Hortman, along with the attack on Senator John Hoffman and Yvette Hoffman. Melissa, Mark, John, and Yvette—these are not just names, and this is not just politics. These are people. They’re longtime friends to me and Jenn and so many others in Minnesota. They have children, loved ones, neighbors, and friends. Speaker Hortman was a leader in every sense of the word—from ushering in free lunch for our kids, to protecting women’s rights and reproductive care, to standing up for Minnesota families.'

Continuation of the statement from DNC Chair Ken Martin on the targeted murder of Minnesota Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and the shooting of Senator John Hoffman, which includes the following: 'Jenn and I also pray for the swift recoveries of Senator John Hoffman and Yvette Hoffman, and thank the medical personnel who operated quickly and tended to their injuries. For the Hortmans’ family, friends, loved ones, for the DFL community, and for all Minnesotans, our souls ache today. This senseless violence must end. These heinous murders are a reflection of the extremism and political violence that have been fomented in our country. Lawmakers should be able to do their job without fear for their lives. I thank the law enforcement officers and first responders for their ongoing efforts to catch the perpetrator who committed this heinous act.'

Chair @kenmartin.bsky.social's full statement on the targeted murder of Minnesota Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and the shooting of Senator John Hoffman:

If I had any tech skills at all I would create a YouTube search option that had oodles of filters and ways to save results. The few ways to "find" things on YouTube/Google are so frustrating. Thank you for your amazing video. VERY WELL DONE!

Keep an eye on these special elections this year and next (Charles is a great source for anticipating these). Special elections are the best indicator of the mood of the country, and give you the good insights into what's likely to come in the next General Election--much better than polling data.

It is both. Watch Naomi Klein The Shock Doctrine for the absolute imperative use of our right to assemble to stop the coup. The only way to stop it is to stay out on the streets. And you're right that we also need to vote. Until the next election, we all stay out on the streets.
