Official Defies GOP Governor's Order To Fly Flags At Half Staff For Charlie Kirk
He said he did not want to honor a man "who did so much to harm not only the marginalized, but also to degrade the fabric of our body politic."

Look I think valuing human life is a phenomenal, wonderful, fantastic idea and also that’s why everyone opposes the genocide in Palestine and the colonial violence in Haiti and Sudan and Congo right? Oh oh you didn’t mean those lives I see

Again:Journalists are not stenographers. We are to get information, report and verify the facts, and then report the reality not the talking point. What Trump is doing in DC and threatening in cities is NOT a crime crack down because he says it is. Don’t regurgitate. Report the truth not propaganda.

People are generally not ideological and mostly don’t care about policy. They have group based interests and trusted elites they look to for guidance and leadership in carrying out those interests. Most people’s beliefs are an incoherent ideological hodgepodge

If you’re not white, or you have friends or loved ones who aren’t white, or you’re not a total sociopath and therefore care about fellow humans who aren’t white, you need to understand this regime thinks not being white is inherently suspect, and lots of your fellow Americans are fine with that.

School districts creating secondary literacy curriculum that doesn’t include novels during a ‘literacy crisis’ is baffling & counterproductive. Stakeholders: your district doesn’t value your kids’ ability to read and think if their secondary English class is merely test prep.

he's just going to lie his way straight through it
Almost all of our Great Republicans in the United States Senate have passed our “ONE, BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL.” It is no longer a “House Bill” or a “Senate Bill”. It is everyone’s Bill. There is so much to be proud of, and EVERYONE got a major Policy WIN — But, the Biggest Winner of them all will be the American People, who will have Permanently Lower Taxes, Higher Wages and Take Home Pay, Secure Borders, and a Stronger and More Powerful Military. Additionally, Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security Benefits are not being cut, but are being STRENGTHENED and PROTECTED from the Radical and Destructive Democrats by eliminating Waste, Fraud, and Abuse from those Programs.

We can have all of this right now, but only if the House GOP UNITES, ignores its occasional “GRANDSTANDERS” (You know who you are!), and does the right thing, which is sending this Bill to my desk. We are on schedule — Let’s keep it going, and be done before you and your family go on a July 4thvacation. The American People need and deserve it. They sent us here to, GET IT DONE!

Our Country is going to explode with Massive Growth, even more than it already has since I was Re-Elected. Between the Growth, this Bill, our Tariffs, and more, “THE ONE, BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL” sets the United States down a fiscal path by greatly reducing our Federal Deficit, and setting us on course for enormous Prosperity in the new and wonderful Golden Age of America.

To my GOP friends in the House: Stay UNITED, have fun, and Vote “YAY.” GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
