When you're a Nazi, everybody to your left looks like a Communist. And, when you're a Nazi, everybody IS to your left.

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

There was a huge turnout for Cary NC in June…but today was at least two to three times bigger. #nokingsCary

If you're in Northern Virginia, I'm giving a talk on Reading as Resistance from 11:30-12:00 tomorrow 10/4 at the Fredericksburg Independent Book Fest. (fredbookfest.com) It's a wonderful event with 60+ regional authors. We'll be outdoors on what should be a lovely fall day. Come join us! #booksky

Here in the US, we're really missing the era where something like this counted as a political scandal...

They could get the band back together and revive Strikeforce Five. It would only be two of them at the moment, but give it a few months and I'm guessing Seth Meyers and John Oliver will be joining them. In this political climate, I'm not even sure that Fallon can survive...

Right after declaring ANTIFA a terrorist organization the Trump administration will be severing diplomatic ties with Narnia.

PBS & NPR educated the masses… their funding was cut

Colbert rightfully called out a bribe… he was cancelled

Kimmel said that MAGA were working hard to say the Kirk shooter wasn’t one of them… he gets suspended

A Fox News host calls for mass killing of homeless people… and keeps his job

Fascism.

Watching all these centrist pundits stress the β€œcivility” of Charlie Kirk’s style without addressing the ugliness of his substance is giving me a renewed appreciation of how the civil, polite White Citizens’ Councils conned the same crowd into thinking they were distinct from the cruder Klan.

The details surrounding the abhorrent shooting of Charlie Kirk remain unclear, but what is crystal clear is that political violence is a cancer.

This violence must have no safe harbor and must be condemned in all its forms and in all corners.

This is not reporting. This is propaganda.

You're clearly just looking for an argument. And since I firmly believe that coalitions are important and that leftists, communists, and yes, even liberals are all needed in the fight at this moment, I'm not going to give it you. Enjoy the rest of your evening.

If you’ve got a badge and a gun but think your actions are shameful enough to need a mask, you should quit.

I don't know. Given the company she keeps, it seems unlikely that she'd have come into contact with either of those.

Forcing people into rigid categories based on your narrow ideology smacks of fascism. How about you fight fascists in your way and the rest of us will fight them in ours?

Ha! I hadn't made the connection but given how much I love that episode (and that Doctor) it was probably bouncing around in the back of my head. πŸ˜‚

I'm originally from a tiny county in the Florida panhandle. About 15K people total. Deep red uber-Trump. They had 99 people and one dog at the event today, which is a minor miracle.

We were roasting in Cary, but it was worth it. It was a nice reminder that at least in the cities and 'burbs of this reddish-purple state most people don't support this insanity.

Trump is drowning in the pool at Mar-a-Lago. You can either shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning photo or you can save him. Do you select high contrast color film, or would you go with the classic simplicity of black and white?

Is he *guaranteed* to drown? If not, could the weight of my $10K camera tip the balance?
