I teach physics and astronomy at a college and I am a fiscal conservative and social liberal. I love political discourse! I pop political bubbles as a 2nd job!

Charlie Kirk: “I’m sorry. If I see a Black pilot, I’m going to be like, ‘Boy, I hope he’s qualified.’”

Charlie Kirk is racist. Is there any other word for this?

If that’s not racism, then what is?

Kash Patel refuses to explicitly say Trump lost the 2020 election.

[Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1]

Senate Budget Democrats say they'll boycott the Committee's vote on Russell Vought's nomination to be budget director amid the fight over Trump's federal aid freeze.

"We will not vote for someone so clearly unfit for office."

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

BOOM! Dick Durbin just systematically DESTROYED Kash Patel’s entire career.

THIS IS HOW IT’S DONE!!

[ShawneesMan @PhysicsNAstro]

@Jim_Jordan How could he possibly support Law Enforcement?

@Kash_Patel actually said he plans to punish people that convicted January 6th insurrectionists THAT PHYSICALLY ASSAULTED POLICE!

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

Any Senator who votes for RFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, or Kash Patel are betraying their oath of office to serve their constituents and uphold the Constitution.

READ: This is — verbatim — what Trump said when he claimed DEI "could have" caused the D.C. plane crash.

"We have a high standard. We've had a higher, much higher standard than anybody else. And there are things where you have to go by brain power. You have to go by psychological quality, and psychological quality is a very important element of it. These are various very powerful tests that we put to use and they were terminated by Biden and Biden went by a standard, that's the exact opposite."

[Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1]

Trump just said the D.C. plane crash "could have been" caused by diversity hiring. He offers no evidence to support that statement.

“The deadly crash over the Potomac River is the culmination of an alarming pattern,” writes @juliettekayyem. “Our aviation system has been ignoring warning signs and normalizing deviance. Good luck can last only so long, and it ran out last night”: https://t.co/EQN8LUdCsB

"The president may be spoiling for a fight with career bureaucrats and 'woke' professors, but when it comes to Iranian assassins, he is willing to walk away from men who carried out his orders," @RadioFreeTom writes: https://t.co/uklIJ5AwNe

I don't know if anyone else has been following the Republican FL Legislature absolutely eviscerating DeSantis this week. They've said he's anti-LEO and anti-farmers. Tough words from former allies of his. They have held their power as an equally powerful branch of government. 🧵

Our new ad is airing on Capitol Hill, targeting Senators over the Kash Patel, Tulsi Gabbard and RFK Jr. confirmations.

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

Trump puts Americans in danger by picking Tulsi Gabbard to the top intelligence role after her long record of praising dictators and spreading disinformation.

Former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley:

“We don’t take an oath to a king, or a queen, or to a tyrant, or a dictator — and we don’t take an oath to a wannabe dictator.”
(September 2023)

[John A. Daly @JohnDalyBooks]

The equivalent of: "Don't look at me. I didn't make the sign. I just proudly held it up."

[ShawneesMan @PhysicsNAstro]

@Jim_Jordan If that were true,that is the exact reason that he should not have anything to do with any related investigation.

We don’t let the spouse of a murder victim conduct the investigation into that Murder even if he/she was detective that would normally do such an investigation.

[Roger Sollenberger @SollenbergerRC]

Kash Patel confirmation hearing:

Dick Durbin asks Patel if he’s familiar with Stew Peters—a right-wing fringe conspiracy theorist.

Patel: <long pause> Not off the top of my head.

Durbin: You’ve made eight appearances on his podcast.

[Kyle Griffin @kylegriffin1]

Tulsi Gabbard refuses to directly answer whether she thought Edward Snowden was 'brave' in leaking classified information.

[ShawneesMan @PhysicsNAstro]

@SisyphusUnleas @CA_DWR I have discovered @realDonaldTrump had sent it via Truth Social even though I was confident I had seen that “Tweet.”

I looked closer and realized the photo was the one he used on Truth, not X.

Sorry everyone, I made a mistake!
