Why is everyone calling Charlie Kirk’s shooting political violence when there is no motive or suspect in custody?

If anyone is to blame for the level of political violence we see in America today — it’s this motherfucker.

The same ones who have ruined everything lately. Emboldened by the racist in the White House. They litetally f**k up everything with their keyboard toughness.

When Trump threatens D.C., Baltimore, Chicago, NYC, or LA, it’s a spectacle for his base. But zoom out and you see an infrastructure quietly being built in red states: detention centers, deputized sheriffs, expanded contracts for prison companies.

Fact check: trump isn't stopping crime in DC, he's distracting from the Epstein case.
And deploying so many National Guard hasn't increased dining out in restaurants; it's actually had the opposite effect.
Dining is down by 31%.
Everything trump touches dies.

Imagine sitting around wondering if a poor kid somewhere in MS is getting a grape Nehi? God forbid a poor kid have even a moment's joy. Let alone getting something they can AFFORD! The waste of $ here is this study.
Why are taxpayers forced to fund food stamps which are then used to purchase junk food?
My office is releasing a report today showing food stamp recipients in Mississippi spend over 11% of their food stamp money on sugary drinks and candy alone.
These foods contribute to chronic disease like obesity and diabetes. Then taxpayers have to pay for Medicaid to treat those folks. Banning the use of food stamps on sugary drinks and candy could save more than $21 million in Medicaid money per year if it reduces those chronic diseases by just 1%.
Stay tuned for the full report later today.

BREAKING: Trump implies that he can cancel US elections if the US is at war in 2028.
HE DOES THIS ON THE WORLD STAGE AS WE TRY TO GET A DICTATOR TO STOP INVADING A SOVEREIGN NATION.
Sickening!!!

there is no training to prepare you to deal with the passing of one of your students. so much of our engagement with them is about their future that we take for granted, particularly for Black students, how much is denying them of one

Farewell to Suleiman al-Obeid, the 'Palestinian Pelé'.
A talent who gave hope to countless children, even in the darkest of times.
