26 years ago, a gunman entered
Dunblane Primary School in Scotland,
killing 16 kids and a teacher. The UK
govt responded by enacting tight gun
control legislation. In the 9400+ days
since, there have been a total of O
school shootings in the UK.

I’m here clicking on this tweet wondering why, at this hour, Mehdi isn’t performing Ibadah, but don’t worry, the irony isn’t lost on me.
Greene is too extreme even for Musk’s Twitter!
Twitter has temporarily restricted Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's congressional account after she repeatedly posted a graphic that referred to a “Trans Day of Vengeance.” nbcnews.to/3TPMK1A
The husband of a conservative activist, the husband who happens to be a Supreme Court justice, repeatedly refused to recuse himself from cases involving his wife. Remind me again why the Dems didn’t impeach Clarence Thomas?
Exclusive: A little-known conservative activist group led by Virginia “Ginni” Thomas, wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, collected nearly $600,000 in anonymous donations to wage a cultural battle against the left, a Post investigation found. wapo.st/40k3Ln5
If you have a case before the Supreme Court, there are no ethical or legal constraints in shoving a ton of money at the spouse of a sitting Justice
Reminder that just last month Republicans wore AR-15 pins in place of where their American flag pin would normally go.
Did you see Paul Offit's blog on this, Mehdi? pauloffit.substack.com/p/lab-leak-con… He agrees with you I think.

“The carnage is rarely visible to the public. Crime scene photos are considered too gruesome to publish and often kept confidential. News accounts rely on antiseptic descriptions from law enforcement officials and medical examiners.” washingtonpost.com/nation/interac…
One problem w/ Elon's claim that "paying for verification is about equal treatment" is not all users face equal risk of impersonation.
Trolls have gone so far as to make a fake CNN to announce my suicide. Making this kind of thing easier on twitter doesn't make it a better place

“we’ve learned that both the Department of Energy…and the F.B.I. now consider it most likely that the pandemic started in the laboratories.”

With each shooting, these guys get closer and closer to stating their real position: that dead kids is an acceptable trade-off for gun access.
Trump just posted this article, ‘They Want a War? Let’s Give It To Them. It calls for right-wing local DAs to indict Hillary, Biden, Pelosi, Fauci, Obama, Soros, Holder and others if Trump is arrested.
The Nashville shooter legally bought seven guns from five different local gun stores; three of them were used yesterday. The shooter’s parents had previously sold one of the weapons, and did not want their child to have guns.

This is pathetic. If they failed so egregiously to meet the needs of those that hired them in any other line of work the question would be whether to fire them or prosecute them first. They are bought and paid for tools of the gun lobby and kids are dying because of it.
Asked if he'll invite Netanyahu to Washington, Joe Biden replies with a sharp No. "No, not in the near term."
I know most of the time it seems like elections don't matter, but if you live in Wisconsin, you can choose not to make this guy the swing vote on the state Supreme Court.

I will do an @instagram live tomorrow at 10am to discuss but for now: we stand by the integrity of the evidence that exonerated Adnan and urge the Baltimore Police and States Attorney’s office to find the source of the DNA on the victims shoes and find Hae Min Lee’s actual killer

One of his genuine, deeply held beliefs is that democracy is bad and some form of dictatorship is preferable. He’s said this many many many times over many years.
Nashville police chief: The school shooter bought 7 guns despite being "under treatment for an emotional disorder" — but police did not have the power to take them.

Read this article graphically explaining how AR-15s are far more dangerous than handguns.
Then recall Brett Kavanaugh's claim: "It is difficult to make the case that semi-automatic rifles are significantly more dangerous than semi-automatic handguns."

But he was appropriate for it in 2016 and 2020, per Christie. Beyond ridiculous.
Christie: "When you have the Jan. 6 choir at a rally and you show video of it — I just don't think that person is appropriate for the presidency."
Should this ‘sovereign country’ then give back the 3 billion dollars a year it gets from its ‘best of friends’? Only fair, right?
Israel is a sovereign country which makes its decisions by the will of its people and not based on pressures from abroad, including from the best of friends.

I mean, it is indisputable at this point that Republican politicians love their guns more than our nation’s children.
“We have not found another answer and so we are left with a question, which is: Whom do we love more, our guns or our children?” writes @esaumccaulley. nyti.ms/40FVklM
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO), the Senate's lone "no" vote on a 2021 hate crimes bill, calls the Nashville school shooting "a hate crime against this community."
"Today, I will introduce a resolution explicitly condemning this massacre as the hate crime that it is."

"As one Israeli woman at a protest in Tel Aviv earlier this month pointed out, via her placard: 'We were silent about occupation, and we ended up with dictatorship.'" From my @MSNBC commentary tonight.

Have the IRS commented yet on why they reportedly showed up at the home of Matt Taibbi? I mean, I know it's the Journal, and I know Republicans are already losing their minds, but it doesn't look good, for sure.
