I understand this. Please tell me you do, too.

Shame on you, Tim Cook." The post includes a verified badge and a ship logo.

Apple caved to the Trump DOJ and removed the anti-ICE apps from its App Store. Cowardice.

Republicans like to claim they aren't actually cutting Medicaid.

Which is an easily disproven lie.

Groomer Trump a song

There once was a groomer named Trump
Who lived life a garbage-filled dump
He groomed with the best
And he’d never confessed
(It’s your fault!) he’d cry with his stump

Raskin: "It's not lost on anyone that shutting the government down allows them not swear in our new colleague, Ms Grijalva from Arizona, who would be the 218th signature to discharge the Epstein files and to put a vote on that on the House floor."

The "little acts of cruelty" that are just enough to make people fold. That's a deliberate tactic to break down resistance incrementally.

To Kirkify: A carefully orchestrated strategy to create enough pressure that people make small compromises to avoid immediate pain, each one seemingly minor but collectively creating a new normal where cruelty becomes acceptable and truth becomes negotiable.

You can dress it up in flowery language and say it's for everyone, but you're excluding everyone who doesn't follow your contradictory rules, which is most people, including yourself, which dictates that most people are to be killed save for a lucky few who get away with atrocities. So, I'm not sure what to tell you other than you should read that book more carefully.

It's disgusting that anyone voted for this bill. Did anyone of them actually hear Kirk's message? This is the kind of poison that destroys lives as bad as Kirk did. If they did, Gross.

There’s only one person he cares about.

The cartoon crossed no line. It was not quite to the level of Kirk, but it attempted to honor his legacy. Did these complainers never hear Kirk's message? I think he would have approved.

This is a fair point.

He doesn't deserve respect based on some strange made-up BS that he was a good person. He served hate not our country. So, it must be for some other reason.

I seem to recall the right storming the Capitol on January 6th and beating police officers with the U.S. flag.

Well, among other things, Charlie was a dealer of hate and lies. I expect his followers and admirers to be just as kind and honest, or less so. Sadly, they haven't disappointed, yet.

I assumed Kirk shooter was a maga right-wing Republican, like most shooters. It wouldn't surprise me if pre-maga shooters approved. They are dangerous and feed on right-wing propaganda. If the person is maga trans, then it's because they're maga not trans. Trans is natural. Maga is not.

...it wasn't Melissa Hortman and her husband being murdered in their own home?

For a glimpse at where this can lead, look at Turkey, at Hungary, at Belarus. We must be vigilant and vote out of office anyone associated with this attempted destruction of our democracy. It’s up to each of us!

Newsom Gives Karoline Leavitt An Epic New Nickname With Trolling 'Hunger Games' Meme

Brilliant.

Last week Trump said he likes the idea of starting a war so he can declare “no more elections” and stay in office forever.

Today he just said “a lot of people” want “a dictator.”

See where this is going?

A “we were wrong” correction would be nice.
