This is trash. We’ve moved from “fire people who celebrate murder” to “fire people who explicitly condemn murder but express opinions I dislike.” Illiberal snowflakery. Get a grip.

@TPCarney Calling Trump a “fascist” and a “threat to democracy” amounts to endorsing violence against him and his supporters. A statement of condolence from the man who gave the speech below means nothing. Yes, they are responsible.

It’s genuinely insane that it hasn’t been shut down yet. Like, just open flouting of a law passed by Congress, signed by a president, and upheld 9-0 by the Supreme Court.

Younger Republicans and Evangelicals are much less sympathetic with Israel than older ones: 24% of younger Republicans sympathize more with Israel vs. 52% of older ones; 24% of younger Evangelicals sympathize more with Israel vs. 51% of older ones. Why? https://t.co/fGdOSiEvIo

One reason young Republicans are walking away from Israel is they stopped watching Fox News. Only 12% of young Republicans say Fox is primary source of news vs. 32% of older ones. And 72% of Republicans who rely on Fox sympathize more with Israelis, double percentage of the rest.

What's even more remarkable is that he's still going with this even though there's no real evidence at this point that Tyler Robinson was a leftist, and some clues he may have been a Groyper. Other conservatives have toned down their rhetoric. We'll see what the WH does.

On Thursday, I wrote about how Trump signaled he intended to use Kirk's shooting as a pretext for a broad crackdown on the left. Here's Stephen Miller being much more explicit. He's talking about RICO and terrorism charges, echoing RW influencers.
