  1. I would suggest going bigger. The days after the next Dem president is sworn in, he should prevail on the Democratic Congress to pass legislation to expand the Supreme Court by 4 and have his nominees ready for a vote post haste.
  2. It’s interesting. Trump likes to appear impervious to the bone marrow hatred a majority of Americans have for him. But he really is bothered by it.
  3. He made fun of Trump’s response to a question about how he was handling Kirk’s death. FWIW, it was funny.
  4. Transparent my behind: https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/us-justice-department-removes-study-142600191.html The US justice department has scrubbed a study from its website concluding that far-right extremists have killed far more Americans than any other domestic terrorist group, just days after a gunman fatally shot the prominent conservative activist Charlie Kirk. The report, now archived, titled What NIJ Research Tells Us About Domestic Terrorism, vanished from the Department of Justice website between 11 and 12 September, according to Jason Paladino, an independent investigative reporter who first wrote the story. Kirk, the 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder and Trump ally, was gunned down while speaking at Utah Valley University on 10 September. The vanished study opened with: “Since 1990, far-right extremists have committed far more ideologically motivated homicides than far-left or radical Islamist extremists, including 227 events that took more than 520 lives. In this same period, far-left extremists committed 42 ideologically motivated attacks that took 78 lives.”
  5. Trump wants this photo and all other vestiges of slavery from the Smithsonian: https://npg.si.edu/learn/classroom-resource/gordon-lifedates-unknown
  6. Related to Patel’s appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee: https://newrepublic.com/post/200516/kash-patel-damning-fact-check-enemies-list You can continue to characterize it as you wish, the only actions we take—generally speaking—for personnel at the FBI are what’s based on merit qualifications and your ability to uphold your constitutional duty. You fall short, you won’t work there anymore,” he added. “Well, there was a list,” Whitehouse said. “You don’t like it to be called an enemies list, but it had about 60 names, and about 20 have had adverse actions. So I think those are pretty clear facts.”
  7. All one has to do to show the rank hypocrisy of the governor and Tech’s Regents chair is listen to thousands of Tech students substitute their fight songs original words with the following. (I double checked for accuracy) We will hit ‘em. We will wreck ‘em. We will fucking kick your ass The 18 year old was expelled for less. I hope this negatively impacts the inroads they’ve made in appealing to black athletes and exposes Campbell for the bigoted billionaire he really is.
  8. For those still ignoring the obvious: President Donald Trump said he "couldn't care less" when asked by Fox News how he would make America "come back together". ".
  9. That’s a bad boy! I listen to him weekly.
  10. There’s a lot of space between being appalling silent and doing nothing.
  11. Yes, as well as MLK called the “appalling silence of good people who do nothing.”
  12. This shit had gotten out of hand: https://www.reddit.com/r/law/s/r6mR7ZijTT
  13. Another set of screenshots shared by Libs of TikTok documented Facebook posts from Jennifer Courtemanche, who teaches at Goose Creek Consolidated Independent School District in Baytown, Texas. In one post on Wednesday, Courtemanche highlighted how Utah’s Republican Gov. Spencer Cox had condemned the shooting before claiming, “I bet if the victim had been Black or Brown or a Democrat influencer, he’d have been singing a different tune. It appears Libs of TikTok is policing the internet, doxxing and reporting those who are not sufficiently obsequious to the memory of Charlie Kirk.
  14. Brian Kilmeade originally said "involuntary lethal injection" is a solution to crimes perpetrated by the unhoused: "Just kill 'em" And he’ll never lose his job at Fox.
  15. Will the right get all bug eyed about this in the same way they did about Ashleigh Babbitt?
  16. I’m pretty sure Kirk inspired the Professor Watchlist that is responsible for the rabid hysteria we’ve seen at aggy in recent days. This is only going to get worse.
  17. Let’s keep it 100%. Archbishop Oscar Romero was martyred for the faith. Charlie Kirk was not.
  18. According to the National Institute of Justice, since 1990, far right extremists have committed far more ideologically motivated homicides than far left or radical Islamist extremists , including 227 events that took more than 520 lives.
  19. Unless pretending to be an awful person was the hallmark of his grift, then he was not a nice person: https://www.buzzfeed.com/alexalisitza/viral-charlie-kirk-quotes?d_id=10591432&ref=bffbbuzzfeed&utm_source=dynamic&utm_campaign=bffbbuzzfeed&fbclid=IwY2xjawMwVaNleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHqaPAK9M_Vt9rpdIcCAzkjyWy32uK05J_58YXcXSEj2Zci7C7b-EBzLXVO5s_aem_907SbqM9ee7k-y7l8eJiZA
  20. The Sec and the B1G are not gonna get their way on this one.
  21. Yeah, well… Sen. Maria Cantwell warned her colleagues Wednesday that a bill heading to the House floor that would regulate college sports would solidify an unsustainable and growing gap between the nation’s biggest athletic conferences and everyone else. In a letter to members of the Senate Commerce Committee, where Cantwell, D-Wash., is the ranking member, she references the SCORE Act, which the House is set to vote on next week. The NCAA and its top conferences support the bill. It would provide limited antitrust exemption for the NCAA, override state laws governing paying players in favor of one national statute and remove the possibility of athletes being considered employees of their schools. Cantwell argued it would lock in a “distorted system” that would ultimately favor the Big Ten and Southeastern Conferences — the “Big 2,” she called them.
  22. What? https://www.everythinglubbock.com/news/local-news/ttu-ranks-ninth-nationally-in-workforce-preparation-of-graduates/
  23. In addressing the need to reduce gun violence, we know what works. Shame on us for lacking the courage to do the right and just thing: The assault weapons ban was part of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994, which included a "sunset provision" mandating that the law expire after 10 years unless renewed by Congress. After the ban expired, the average number of mass shooting deaths per year increased significantly compared to the period when the ban was in effect. One 2024 study suggested that if the ban had been renewed in 2004, it could have prevented as many as 38 additional mass shootings between 2005 and 2022.
  24. Nothing engenders confidence in the FBI like that bug eyed looked on Kash Patel’s face.
