"Last week,🚨Fox News Host Brian Kilmeade said we needed to kill 700,000 Americans by involuntary lethal injection.
Today Fox News Host Jesse Watters said we need to “Bomb” the UN Building in New York City.
Yes, Fox News suggested bombing a building on U.S. soil.
A building full of world leaders.
Just for clarity:
Even Watters own mother thinks he’s an asshole."

A 128-pg report [#propaganda] from the #House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight said #LizCheney should be investigated for witness tampering. It accuses her of colluding w/ #CassidyHutchinson, the fmr White House aide who became the cmte’s star witness as it examined #Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

In another revoltingly hypocritical move, #HouseRepublicans say #LizCheney should be criminally investigated, for investigating #Trump’s #Jan6 #coup attempt.

Bates said it was important to distinguish people who use #guns for protection or hunting, & people who use AR-15s, which can kill a large number of people quickly. AR-15s have become a threatening symbol from the #FarRight, Bates said, & people working in #politics or #elections have been intimidated by these #weapons in the last few years. Bates pointed out the example of the #Jan6 #insurrection & #safety fears for #PollWorkers.
…Dykes had already “demonstrated his penchant for ideological violence,” having been charged & convicted of “felonious conduct” at a deadly #UniteTheRight rally in #Charlottesville in Aug 2017. An image showed him making a #Nazi salute w/one hand while carrying a lit torch w/the other.

A #Marine who gave a #Nazi salute during the #Jan6, 2021, #insurrection has been sentenced to almost 5 years in #prison.
Tyler Bradley Dykes, 26, of Bluffton, SC, grabbed a riot shield from Capitol police officers during the insurrection, which he then used to “obstruct & intimidate” officers at the scene. He was serving in the #USMC at the time.

We begin our weeklong coverage from the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee in the wake of the attempted assassination of Donald Trump on Saturday at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Trump was shot in his right ear. One person in the crowd was killed, and two others critically injured. The shooter was killed at the scene after members of the Secret Service opened fire on him on a nearby roof. The Nation's national affairs correspondent John Nichols joins us in Milwaukee to detail the long history of political violence in the United States and says it may not prove as significant to the presidential election as many believe. “There is a tendency after a shooting like this to assume it's going to have a huge political impact — and it may. I’m not dismissing that. But what I will tell you is that there’s history that suggests that the country is horrified, the country reacts with sympathy, but it doesn’t necessarily say, 'Oh, well, we have to elect this wounded warrior or this wounded candidate.'”
Will Bunch does a nice job of pointing out where we, in the US, are now with respect to #authoritarianism, #bigotry, and #PolitcalViolence.
