MAGA now celebrates cancel culture, promotes safe spaces for conservatives, believes free speech should be curtailed, and thinks words encourage violence. Exact opposite of all their positions. Its almost as if they're bad faith hypocrites who want power by any means necessary.

Maybe the people who baselessly blamed transgender people for Kirk's murder and spread disinformation and hate should apologize. Folks like Nancy Mace, Don Trump Jr and WSJ

You're getting a clear X-ray of America right now. Look at who this country's powerful institutions choose to elevate, venerate, and celebrate. Look at the double standards. Look at the people who adore Charlie Kirk - then spend five minutes reviewing his hateful legacy. This is America.

🚨BREAKING: Massive police response at UMass Boston to an unconfirmed report of a shooting on campus. UMass Boston initially urged the public to avoid part of its campus amid what it described as a "police incident" and later a "public safety threat." This can't be the new normal.

The thing that surprises me the most about what happened: the ongoing news feed. The angles. The unfiltered fyp. It's like they want us to see it. Trump's staged event didn't get this much attention.

The murder of Charlie Kirk was criminal, wrong, and should be condemned. And Charlie Kirk was a horrible, hateful man who spent his life radicalizing young people to embrace their worst demons by targeting women, people of color, immigrants, and the marginalized. I refuse to sanitize him.

Let’s make one thing clear from the start: Charlie Kirk was the victim of a shooting in a country where he, along with other right-wing extremist influencers, have been inciting violence for years. — Kirk is neither a martyr nor a hero, he is a cause.

The reason the party doesn't want Biden is not because of the election. It's because its dominant faction -- the one that thinks the GOP has a fever that will break any minute now, the one that doesn't really want to fight -- got scared and stabbed him in the back. www.nbcnews.com/politics/joe...

Trump plans to kill the U.S. Department of Education, but here’s the problem—it’s unconstitutional. Congress created the department by law in 1979, and only Congress can dismantle it. A president can’t just erase it with an executive order—but Trump can make it impossible for it to function.
