The left is calling for greater investment in renewable energy and the right is burning Barbies, shooting Bud lights, and touting the upsides of slavery, so I can see how both sides are to blame for all this polarization
Donald Trump and MAGA have created a radicalized and dangerous extremist movement in America. It is fueled by lies, paranoia and insanity. It seeks political power.
Political violence will grow worse and it is the fault of GOP cowardice and MAGA malice. It is Trumps fault.
Or maybe a billionaire-fueled propaganda channel that regularly generates high volumes of death threats to elected officials while pumping propaganda for an extreme right-wing that openly embraces fascism is what’s creating “the environment where it happened”
Look at this - it’s a comically dishonest political attack in NC.
Rep. Ricky Hurtado had his picture taken while picking up trash in his district.
His GOP opponent **photoshopped it** and is sending it as a mailer to attack him.
Let’s make sure this backfires.
If our Christianity makes nationalists feel comfortable and migrants feel unsafe, that is when we can be sure we are being discipled by someone other than Jesus.
Imagine trying to explain Christian Nationalism to Jesus.
“We’re gonna take your teachings—minus the ones about loving your enemies and not resisting an evil person—and mandate them by law, enforcing them with religious fervor. What could wrong?”
*Jesus points to the cross*
Hey @SenTomCotton - heard you on @hughhewitt criticizing the Jan 6 hearings.
Then you said the strangest thing; you admitted you hadn’t watched any of them.
Here’s a tip: actually watching them before rendering judgment is more consistent with “Anglo-American jurisprudence.”
The House GOP leadership has enabled white nationalism, white supremacy, and anti-semitism. History has taught us that what begins with words ends in far worse. @GOP leaders must renounce and reject these views and those who hold them.
Most people who worked under Trump agrees he's unfit for office

Former WH COS John Kelly: "He is the most flawed person I have ever met in my life"
Former NSA John Bolton: "I don't think he's fit for office. I don't think he has the competence to carry out the job" /1
Children are so resilient.
This group of orphans had to flee Ukraine. They’ve already experienced so much trauma in their young lives…But still they sing every day.

“It is up to us in our time to choose, and choose wisely, between the hard but necessary task of preserving peace and freedom, and the temptation to ignore our duty and blindly hope for the best while the enemies of freedom grow stronger day by day.” Ronald Reagan
Shame falls on a party that would censure persons of conscience, who seek truth in the face of vitriol. Honor attaches to Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger for seeking truth even when doing so comes at great personal cost.
Mike Rounds speaks truth knowing that our Republic depends upon it. Republicans like Govs Hutchinson, Baker & Hogan; Sens McConnell, Thune & Johnson; Bush & Cheney; plus 60+ courts and even the right-leaning Wall Street Journal editorial page agree: Joe Biden won the election.
Don’t confuse justice with public pressure. The police covered it up. The prosecutors covered it up. Only a leaked video, months later led to these convictions. Your righteous outrage made this happen.
Not the legal system.
