And with that I’m taking a long break until all this boils over. This discourse is exhausting and infuriating and I have enough shit in life to deal with outside of this. See you in the funny pages, folks!

Just remember that they would never and have never treated the death of some on the left the way a lot of Dems are treating this situation.

Here are some tweets from Charlie Kirk over just the last few days. They are an impressive mix of hatred towards: Blacks, immigrants, women, immigrants, Muslims, LGBTQ, academics.

I think it is always worth mentioning that Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark were killed with their beloved dog Gilbert: www.nytimes.com/2025/06/27/u...

rarely have I more acutely felt the dynamic by which Dems are held responsible for the rhetoric of every random left-leaning person on the internet and Republicans are not even asked to answer for their own personal words

Judging by the shamefully opportunistic & politicizing rhetoric of some rightwingers on Twitter, & their cynical use of Charlie Kirk’s horrific murder for political point scoring, it’s almost as if Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman wasn’t murdered by a Trump-voting MAGA maniac just 12 weeks ago.

No elected official Democratic party will be as cruel about Kirk's death as Mike Lee was about the death of Melissa Hortman. wisconsinexaminer.com/2025/06/17/s...
Republican Sen. Mike Lee of Utah took down X posts Tuesday making an apparent connection between Gov. Tim Walz and the man accused of shooting two Minnesota lawmakers and their spouses, and blaming “Marxists” for the murders. The change comes after blowback from Sen. Tina Smith and her staffers as well as Minnesota Democratic and Republican lawmakers.

One X post said “Nightmare on Waltz Street,” with pictures of Boelter, who is accused of killing Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, and shooting Sen. John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, in the early morning hours of June 14. Boelter also went to the homes of two other state lawmakers that night; one house was empty, and at the other, a police officer pulled up to the house shortly after Boelter arrived, so Boelter left.

Another Lee post read, “This is what happens When Marxists don’t get their way,” with a picture of Boelter.

When a right-wing man murdered Democratic lawmakers in Minnesota, progressives asked MAGA to tone down the rhetoric to prevent more violence. Within hours of Kirk’s murder, motive still unknown, the right is demanding that the government wage a campaign of violence against their enemies.

All I’m going to say on this is I won’t be lectured on what an appropriate reaction to political violence is from the same people who thought the Paul Pelosi attack was a comedic goldmine.

People confront Trump at a DC restaurant. He smiles at the camera as they chant “Free DC, free Palestine, Trump is the Hitler of our time.” Trump’s masked agents have snatched residents & he’s unconditionally backed Israel’s genocide of Gaza. Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth, and JD Vance seen alongside.

Hey @schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social : how come instead of rallying behind your constituents who overwhelmingly support @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social and seems to be inspiring people who are burned out and cynical about politics, your listening to beltway consultants?

Ridiculous that anyone would want the New York Times to make a definitive call on the evidence that the president is a giant pedophile, this isn't a slam-dunk case like Iraqi weapons of mass destruction, be serious now
