Graham Linehan is calling the people who murdered a trans man in cold blood, heroes.
Screenshot of an X post by Graham Linehan (@Glinner) commenting, "It looks like these two are heroes who may have saved some kids".
Linehan quotes a post by Andy Ngo (@MrAndyNgo) that reads: "Damn. According to a witness of the shooting homicide of the trans New York Times executive in Dublin, Calif., the elderly Chinese grandparents calmly walked away after the exec was dropped to the ground".
Below the text are two police mugshot photos side by side: on the left is an elderly Asian woman with short, wavy gray hair wearing a white shirt, and on the right is an elderly Asian man with short dark hair, slight facial stubble, and a white shirt.

Our country spends far more money to kill people than we do to keep them alive. So sad.

The Republican party is a farce. They're nothing more than Trump cheerleaders, guilty of collaboration in every one of his crimes. The GOP are no longer legislators, they're diaper changers who keep Donald Trump's ass clean. www.mediaite.com/media/news/c...

Jack Smith: "Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation ... rather than accept his defeat in the 2020 election, he engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful transfer of power"

Why does Trump endorse Bill Paxton and think he's “the best attorney general in the country, perhaps”? Because Paxton is a thief, a crook, someone who enjoys getting away with his crimes. Vote Talarico. www.thedailybeast.com/obsessed/joh...

37 more wounded troops. Added quietly. No explanation. Here's the No B.S. truth: when anyone (a vendor, a CEO, a government) revises the numbers without telling you why, the silence IS the message. 861 wounded. Their families deserve the full story.

Surely no one expects Trump to understand any of this and if he does, it's all according to plan. His mission has always been to destroy the U.S. “Xi referred, yet again, to the ‘Thucydides trap'... and Trump sits there making moo eyes like a lovestruck teenager.” www.alternet.org/amp/trump-ch...
