“Two stunning political moments in the past 24 hours: Gov. Cox's eloquent appearance just now...and Bernie Sanders's extraordinary statement yesterday.”
You’re right, but the people defending Kirk are the same kind of people who killed MLK. Not sure how much Bernie has realized it.
A bust of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., once prominently displayed in the Oval Office, has been removed under Donald Trump’s presidency amid a broader rollback of civil rights iconography, military tributes, and diversity initiatives across federal agencies.
At the same time, Trump continues to court far-right figures like Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, a vocal critic of Dr. King’s legacy. Kirk, who has called the Civil Rights Act of 1964 a “mistake” and questioned the existence of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
The push to erase these figures coincides with a wider campaign by the Trump administration to dismantle what it deems “woke” programs.
That’s all true, but what I’m referring to is basically pre-ww2 political violence like the county and union wars or how local level politics was basically just gang warfare. Most of that settled down before Bernie’s time and was largely forgotten on a grander cultural level, frankly speaking in many ways increased political violence would be a return to historical trends. Personally I’m rather a fan of tar and feathering, it’d be funny to do it to Boebert.
Bro
He marched with MLK. He called the Vietnam War a genocide in 1972, lol
