I do not condone violence. Just wondering where the sympathy was the for the multiple MN lawmakers that were injured & murdered. The hypocrisy is palpable.

Trump said that it was a waste of time to call Governor Walz.

I keep thinking this exact thing. (flags @ half-mast within the hour? seriously?) Without nary a phone call to Gov Waltz when the Mn shootings happened.

Over on Reddit, the conspiracy people are going crazy and saying he was offed by Mossad or somethiing for talking smack about gaza/israel. So whatever.

I hate to say it but it's kinda like watching a slow train wreck... morbid curiosity wonders of this is our tipping point for Civil war or some kind of declaration to revoke civil liberties across the board. I am very glad I dont have cable news and am just getting my info from DU...

Reap as ye sow... and I can't find any empathy in my soul at ALL...but it was just a made up new age term anyway

"I can't stand the word empathy, actually," Kirk says in the video. "I think empathy is a made-up, new-age term that does a lot of damage.”
