Lots of Republicans constantly claim there’s “nothing” anyone can do about gun violence. They are lying.

Here’s a list of what factually could be done and work. Every option here is a perfectly legitimate example of something that’s well-regulated.

To make progress on gun safety, we have to vote out Republicans.
To make progress on climate, we have to vote out Republicans.
To make progress on or even maintain a educational system now, we have to vote out Republicans.
To make progress on reproductive rights or even maintain a basic level of them apparently, we have to vote out Republicans.

Are we seeing a pattern yet?

Sort of like how so many people thought that Kanye West was another revolutionary genius before he just decided to fully open up.

Thankfully, I have nothing to apologise for or feel embarrassed about when it comes to these two idiots.

t.me/washingtonpost/1988 ⚡️🇺🇸For Ukraine, what’s so special about Germany’s Leopard 2 tanks? As the war in Ukraine nears its one-year mark, Kyiv is pushing Western allies to provide modern battle tanks for its fight with Russian forces. And there’s one particular model the Ukrainians want — the German-made Leopard 2. Other countries have offered different tanks, such as Britain, which promised 14 Challenger 2 models earlier this month. (More) #Ukraine #News #War #Russia #TankeSchon

For those of you who have a doorbell cam, and you see wildlife out there, are we turning on the intercom and talking to them? Is it just me? I just feel like they’d appreciate some encouragement and support.

When Twitter banned neo-Nazi Nick Fuentes back in December 2021, the site’s Head of Safety and Integrity, Yoel Roth said, “Hateful conduct has no place here.”

How would we know that Twitter has become a ghost town?

I think it’s happening already, and we know because Elon accidentally told us.
