Obama: So we have to extend to people during their period of mourning

We can also at the same time say I disagree with the idea that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was a mistake


I can disagree with the suggestion that my wife or Justice Jackson does not have adequate brain processing power.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.

This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.

All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

Power doesn't panic.

The union representing the musicians from Jimmy Kimmel’s band releases a statement calling the FCC’s pressure on Disney “state censorship.”

"I don't care that he's dead."
"He's not a hero."
"He's a scumbag."
"He shouldn't be celebrated."

No, no. I'm not saying that about Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk said that about George Floyd.

Just in case anyone's interested in what he thought was fair to say about someone who was killed on camera.

The Washington Post Fired Me — But My Voice Will Not Be Silenced. I spoke out against hatred and violence in America — and it cost me my job.

Some personal news:

I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting.

YouTube video by National Women's Law Center "We Have Your Back:" A Message to Trans Students from State Attorneys General

State AGs have released a video saying that they "will do whatever it takes" to protect trans people in their states.

While the message is admirable, they need to take the one step they have not yet:

Sue the hospitals that capitulate to Trump, violating state law.

Yesterday was the first day in American history that a television personality of a major network openly called for the genocide of Americans during a live broadcast. Can you guess which network he works for and why did you say Fox News?

It should be needless to say, but it is perhaps at this moment worth saying, that transgender individuals have the same right as anyone else to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

"I just want to say, go birds, fuck ICE and free Palestine," "Hacks" star Hannah Einbinder at the #Emmys

This was a word AND he cussed 😂

I plan to post this ABC News supercut video of Trump calling Harris and Democrats "fascists" (and "communists"!) everytime I see a Republican on TV whining about Trump being called a "fascist" by the left.

Oh, the hypocrisy! Oh, the gaslighting!

Sonic Youth were prog rock for people who hate songs.

Apparently, only white fascist RWNJ lives matter.

happy belated 25th birthday to this ripper en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relatio...

It's incredible intellectual gymnastics to accuse the anti-gun Left of causing gun violence.

The self-delusion is staggering.

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 one who said Kirk’s murder was their Reichstag Fire was spot on, the Nazis set the fire as a pretext to persecute the communists. They get mad when we call them Nazis but it’s okay for them to openly admit it?

it really is astonishing how quickly it goes from “civil war” and “blood in the streets” to “wow guys it’s just a sad tragedy” when it becomes inconvenient

like this is the most irresponsible level of hysteria i’ve ever seen. most of these people are either paid by the republican party, or are high level advisors and allies. this is insane

Thank you, guitarist for the famously centrist band System of a Down. Truly you are a balm on the wounded soul of our nation.

I seriously don't know how to explain to people that it is not in fact a sign of maturity and democracy to peacefully debate whether certain groups of people should be allowed to exist

i’m not going to be lectured about political violence by people whose politics is violence

We Must Not Posthumously Sanitize Charlie Kirk's Hateful Life Influential anti-LGBTQ+ activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated on Wednesday. While condemning violence is something most can get behind, sanitization of his hate has gone too far.

There has been a rush among centrists like Gavin Newsom and Ezra Klein to brush over the hateful life of Charlie Kirk and valorize the man.

Let me be clear, killing Charlie Kirk was wrong and abhorrent.

We must condemn murder without sanitizing a man who built his empire on hate.

My latest piece.

A picture is worth a thousand words. 🥴
