No, Charlie Kirk was not practicing politics the right way His assassination deserves full condemnation; his full impact should not be sidestepped.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.

This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Honestly think they’re loving the feeling of hurting others.

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

No conflict of interest here …

White House Says Musk Will Decide His Own Conflicts of Interest. Uhhh… The Trump administration says Elon Musk can self-determine when DOGE's work presents a conflict of interest because of his many companies.

"If Elon Musk comes across a conflict of interest with the contracts and the funding that DOGE is overseeing, Elon will excuse himself from those contracts.”
