@BPete04672535 @BeschlossDC Wrong. Every American citizen has the right not to be murdered at a 4th of July parade. We have the constitutional right to “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness”. Life. It trumps your love of weapons of war.

Tip of the cap to @danielsgoldman for knowing the rules. This is awesome.

BREAKING: John Fetterman has only been back ONE day and his first order of business was to CRUSH Kevin McCarthy‘s hopes and dreams.

With ONE sentence, Fetterman destroyed McCarthy’s plans:

“Cut SNAP for families and kids while pushing tax cuts for billionaires? Not on my watch.”

Fetterman is currently chairing a subcommittee hearing and he just made it clear McCarthy’s plans will not pass in the senate.

McCarthy’s plan to cut SNAP is just like his future as Speaker of the House.

It’s dead on arrival.

Here are some details:

McCarthy unveiled a plan Monday that includes broad moves to restrict food assistance for millions of low-income Americans.

Democrats will reject the plan.

Yikes! Kevin McCarthy just got called out to his face live on CNBC over his debt ceiling hypocrisy. The host noted that McCarthy raised the debt ceiling 3 times under Trump and added $2 trillion to the deficit with his tax cuts for the wealthy.

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

I hope this settlement between Dominion and Fox involves each of their air heads -- Hannity, Carlson, Ingraham, etc -- forced to apologize at the beginning and end of each show for lying repeatedly and knowingly to America, and they have to admit President Biden won the election.

Every time their show airs, for a year.

Anything less would be weak sauce.

[Occupy Democrats @OccupyDemocrats]

BREAKING: MAGA Speaker Kevin McCarthy is humiliated on live television as CNBC host Sara Eisen shreds him for being "hypocritical" by pointing out that he happily raised the debt limit three times for Donald Trump but is now demanding spending cuts to do it under Biden — and McCarthy also signed off on massive tax cuts under Trump that spiked the deficit by $2 trillion, proving that he doesn't really care about debt. RT IF YOU THINK THAT KEVIN MCCARTHY IS FULL OF BS!

[Sweet Pea @LetJusticeRain]

@SpeakerMcCarthy Did the Dems make Trump and the Republicans give the top 1% gigantic tax breaks? Didn’t think so. Nice try, Kev.

@thejackhopkins This completely ignores the fact that there were actual cops (not security guards) at Robb Elementary and they didn't have the equipment or training necessary to confront a gunman with an AR-15.

[Robin @Robin51450754]

@thejackhopkins 376 cops at Uvaulde. 21 dead. It's the guns.

[Meg Anne @LovesMeg]

@thejackhopkins Remind this fool of Uvalde - dozens of cops too afraid of the shooter's weapon to do their jobs. More cops are not the answer. Locked doors are not the answer.

IT'S THE GAWD DAMN GUNS!

AMAZING: Live on Fox News, an angry mom at the Nashville School Shooting Press Conference, steps in front of the mic and gives an incredible speech.

Meanwhile Fox News is caught off guard and panics, trying to not show her on air. I'm sure the gun lobby and NRA aren't too happy.

The woman, named Ashbey Beasley
@CampBeasleywood
, was a Highland Park, Illinois shooting survivor, and said the following:

“Aren’t you guys tired of covering this? Aren’t you guys tired of being here and having to cover all these mass shootings? How is this still happening? How are our children still dying and why are we failing them? "These mass shootings will continue to happen until our lawmakers step up and pass gun safety legislation.”

Thank you!!

@thejackhopkins We can control the narrative. It's time, as a nation, we can force a change. It's time, we must not be deterred, we owe our children their safety- they depend on us to keep them safe. Time to call out every republican,get in their face, loud, every day all day.

[Jack Hopkins @thejackhopkins]

Mass shooters don’t choose the AR-15 because it looks “cool.” They choose it, because they can kill upwards of 30 people before needing to reload.

On Sept 28th, 1982, 12 year old Mary Kellerman was hospitalized after being poisoned by a killer who laced a bottle of Tylenol that was on a store shelf, with cyanide. She died the next morning. A day later, six more would die from poisoned Tylenol.

By October 5th, Johnson & Johnson had issued a nationwide recall of 31 million bottles of Tylenol, and launched a massive advertising campaign to get people not to consume any of their products that contained acetaminophen (Tylenol)

The 1982 event inspired a rapid and radical shift in how certain products were sent out, quickly prompting manufacturers to start using tamperproof packaging. Untold lives have been saved in the years since.

The crisis management response by Johnson & Johnson is taught today as a model of corporate public relations and public safety.

These fucking shootings should be SIMPLE to fix. We KNOW how to rapidly bring about a massive reduction in school shootings and the senseless deaths of children and staff. We KNOW how.

It’s not happening, because organizations like the NRA spend millions upon millions of dollars to make sure GOP politicians do NOT allow those solutions to be implemented.

The NRA rewards the GOP for allowing our children to continue being slaughtered.

It’s NOT that we don’t know how to crush this. That, has never been the problem.

Meet Andy Ogles.

While America is calling for "Gun Reform Now," Andy is the US Congressman for Tennessee's 5th district, which makes up part of Nashville, where a shooter just took the lives of 7 Americans, including 3 children.

Andy thinks that taking Christmas photos with his children holding large guns, makes him tough and electable.

Let Andy know what you think.

[@its-Jim @realRoTnKiD]

@Fed_Up_GenXer @OccupyDemocrats It is the gun. It's actually how fast you can unload and reload. Vegas 450 shot by one person in under 10 minutes. Sandyhook 26 kids shredded to pieces by a lone gunman in less than 2 minutes, Pulse 48 dead in 4 minutes, NIU 6 dead in 30 seconds.
It's the guns

[Occupy Democrats @OccupyDemocrats]

BREAKING: A woman charges in front of live Fox News cameras after the tragic Nashville school shooting to ask if they're "tired" of having to cover mass shootings and asks "how is this still happening" and "how are our children still dying" and says the violence will continue until lawmakers "step up" and pass new gun laws. RT IF YOU THINK THAT SHE'S ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!

@krassenstein I live in Tennessee..3 hours away from Nashville so not close but it's devastating to see this happenened. I'm a mom and grandmom so I can't explain how terrifying this is. It's also disgusting that the US can't make changes to stop this. Because of republicans.
