Charlie Kirk was a homophobic, racist and misogynistic to the core. He spread hate and intolerance in the name of Christian Nationalism. These are simple facts that are backed by his own words. So kindly remind your representatives and friends who bring him up in conversation. That is all.

Over???
From what I know and experienced, shingles in later life is linked to measles at an earlier age, and the effects of shingles lasts a lifetime!
Six years later I still have skin growths and pain.

Advice: Get a Shingrex vaccination asap if youโ€™re over 45-50.

Surely, Lindsey understands why it was called affordable and for whom.
This purposeful twist is to continue to dumb down the cult.

How the Supreme Court Is Dismantling the Separation of Church and State Chief Justice John Robertsโ€™ court is actively eroding the separation of church and state, breaking with centuries of First Amendment jurisprudence.

"The separation of church and state is not a mere theory or constitutional surplusage; it protects the right of all Americans to worship freely and to follow their religions without fear of repression or forced compliance."

Do also disregard the global economic war he launched.

Scattered-well-attended protests are only symbolic.

Itโ€™ll have to be many state-wide and ongoing protests for several days or weeks.
Itโ€™ll have to be business shut down time.

OR, civil war of rebellion.

Rethinking Dโ€™Arcy McGee in a Age of Political Violence As the world watches the frightening spiral of political violence in the United States, I have found myself thinking a great deal about Dโ€™Arcy McGee.

Pity Trump & Poilievre in Canada would never understand what Thomas D'Arcy McGee represented. Charlie reminds us of a source of difference between our countries. open.substack.com/pub/charliea...

Wow!
I love Charlieโ€™s response. Thanks Vaudree for responding to my post.

Charlie sure has a way.
I hope Pete accepts and goes for a private chat over a few real domestic beers from a microbrewery.

Elbows up, Pete The MAGA ambassador to Canada is at it again โ€” gaslighting our country and blaming Canada for the poor state of Canadian-American relations.

Regarding Ambassador Pete Hoekstra, Charlie Angus said, "Elbows up, Pete. It's time to pack your bags and go back to MAGAland."

Ref charlieangus.substack.com/p/elbows-up-...

Thanks, Charlie.
Good piece. Needed clarification. Americans should notice.

Marc Elias:
Do they (our allies) look at us โ€” the nation that once helped create the United Nations, the nation that once led the free world โ€” and conclude that America as they knew it is gone?

My response as an ordinary Canadian citizen: Yes!
