Sarah Longwell🙌
No, no ... it is a matter of being EXTREME right, not the guy on the street who has a foggy idea of whatever "conservative" means when the GOP spends more public funds than anyone. The GOP is a far right-white-male party ... they just let a few women in as long as they go along with the patriarchy.
Epstein files
Yay Sarah!!!!!
Erick Erickson still sick as ever. Two decades ago I thought maybe he’d grow out of it. Pitiful.
Big Money Media could help US pull together. It must demand that we honor Charlie Kirk’s last wish: Release all the Epstein files. We can almost all of US agree on that. But it won’t.
DID DONALD TRUMP HAVE CHARLIE KIRK KILLED TO CREATE A DISTRACTION FROM THE EPSTEIN FILES ?
Oye, the chaos and violence continues.
💯💯💯
Journalists got all caught in the trap of Twitter. It's a small pond, at least 75% must be fake by now. In two weeks time this man and his death will be forgotten. That's the rules. Two weeks outrage is passe.
RWNJ's leaders call for all persons that are not them to undergo a witch trial. If the facts sink, they are guilty If the facts float, they are also guilty Tell me I'm wrong
Why are they still talking about the left in this. Are they really this incapable of coping with the facts? Nevermind…
Since when have facts mattered to them? They'll just alter the reality for their followers. Easy peasy.
Yes…hence my “nevermind” at the end…it’s wild and then I remembered-this is who they are…deranged.
I’m so sick of the selfish, self centered fringe running this country- it’s one of the reasons I appreciate the Bulwark and @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social The question is, who’s going to embody and lead the next gen US role model of a patriot in the inciting and dividing mosh pit of social media?
She is usually one of the bravest people in the media. She speaks the truth but she does it in such a measured and factual way. She doesn't really make fun of people or use hyperbole like ordinary people, it's just a direct and succinct refutation of the nonsense. I wonder how she does it.
She is hella smart.
Seems the wacko right executed a mission on the hateful, lying right. But, what do I know?
the killer is going to be coerced into saying he was radicalized by "trans ideology", isnt he?...with a promise of a commuted sentence (he'll find some unfortunate end eventually b/c u cant have loose ends). With that, the MAGA war on America will begin in earnest, with Kirk as their Horst Wessel.
maybe not. He's got people, if they support him he can hold his truth.
No, his partner has given the police access to everything. they don’t need much from him. It’s all online. It’s already out there.
Progressives despise guns The killer & his family absolutely loved guns a whole bunch They’re all gun fanatics
They're also hunters; hunting in Utah is a standard thing to do. They are also a culture partly based in persecution from the standard U.S. 'Christians' a hundred+ years ago. U.S. history is convoluted. I'm a 'progressive', I'm thinking of getting a gun. Your expectations aren't very relevant.
There’s a big difference between having guns for hunting & having tons of guns Also good for you. Since we’re all designated “terrorists” it’s a good idea
lol. Yes, there’s a tiny minority Versus an entire movement with millions of members who are organized around guns And who have been manipulated to despise when our government gets a government printed 💵 into their pockets Because they’re a bunch of masochistic idiots
Man @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social is so fuckin' good at this.
Erick Erickson can ALWAYS be relied on to be on the wrong side of history. It's his specialty and reflects the low moral base of his character. He ALWAYS punches down.
Boom.
It wasn’t an assassination. Only candidates for office and actual officials/employees of a governments are assassinated. The citizen was murdered. It’s expected. He accepted it. Gun death is the number 1 killer of children in America.
Because its much better to canonize Kirk
Interesting how she manages to get all dressed up in non black and get out there to make an awful speech of anger and revenge as a grieving widow. If it were me, I’d be focused on my children and too upset to make speeches. But she decided it was a good opportunity to…? 🤨🤔
The right on this country can't take criticism and are such snowflakes. They're using Kirk's death to plan on silencing anyone they disagree with.
Thanks Sarah.
Erick Erickson was intellectually dishonest even before Trump's political rise, but he's really ramped up the dishonesty since.
Bravo.
Thanks for posting George, those of us who are off X do appreciate pulling in that informatio. Thxx
I ❤️ Sarah Longwell.
Attack the right instead!? So, we should blame an entire group of people who have absolutely nothing to do with it?
Yeah, whenever I think Left, I think Bulwark.
Sarah Longwell is a clown and a farce. A joke. Who gaf what she says? You don’t think we see her for who she is? Grifter. All of you never trumpers. Grifters.
Sarah is correct.
God, I love Sarah so damn much.
Pure evil www.vanityfair.com/news/story/s...
Well said, Ms. Longwell.
Please change the War chatter from Left vs Right to Grossly Rich vs Non Grossly Rich. . Just for historically accurate score keeping 👌 🤣 Gracias 💙💙💙
True, but it effectively isn't that because the grossly rich co-opt the relatively poor into supporting the likes of Maga etc, with lies & misinformation which ends up damaging their own interest. Look at the attendees at Trump's rallies
Yes... They co-opt the poor...brainwashing them with fear...to vote red. Propaganda...as We see...is very very effective.
Bravo
Where did kirk go with the Hortman assassination?
Sarah’s response should be…. Release the Epstein files 😉 Like that one MAGA? 😂
Go Sarah!!! 🙏✊💜
Well done Sarah👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social
Amen
Damn straight, Sarah!
I’d wager that The Bulwark will remain as legitimately conservative (original recipe) and anti-fascist as ever. Kirk was neither.
The thing is folks keep attempting to label this as as a political murder or assassination and its neither, it was and is 2 alt right factions fighting amongst themselves for control of the narrative and one of them was murdered by one of the over zealous followers, that's the facts.
Sooooooo cool and true
He’s gonna ramp up. This is when they are the most dangerous. Putins taking Europe Bibis taking Gaza and maybe others the USA will help both. And we are on our own.
Im not normally a fatalist, but we are already 100% on our own. Def ramping up
Maybe they'll think before talking?
I feel like there’s a bunch of 40 something rich kids who grew up on violent video games that dehumanized people running the country.
Half the country????
One wonders why Sarah wastes her time and ours engaging with a bad faith operator like Erick Erickson.
Sarah rocks (& it's not just because of her amazing name). I have grown to appreciate The Bullwark so much❤️
They need to stop calling us "Left", we are CENTER, they are the extreme Right!!
Go Sarah!
I cannot figure it out. You reap what you sew. did Charlie advocate for or against violence?
Ms. Longwell's somber assessment is on point.
Kirk was a demagogue. Nobody’s martyr. It’s truly deranged to attempt to make him one. A homegrown shooter radicalized online. Another screwed up kid.
Not just any old martyr, either . . . according to his widow, he’ll be “at his saviors side, wearing the glorious crown of a martyr” . . . Political violence is NEVER acceptable - exploiting the death of a healthy young man shouldn’t be acceptable either . . . 😔
His widow seems ready & available to take over the Company.
You go, Sara !!! Do these right wingers not see how wingding they sound?
You tell 'em, Sarah!
The inbreeding required to become Erick Erickson really should not be overlooked.
The Bulwark won’t have to attack the right, their own members are doing that, it’s pretty serious. How serious we may be about to find out.
Sounds good, but I wonder if that horse hasn't already left the barn...
Trump and the MAGA GOP don't really give a shit about Charlie Kirk They are concerned with their 18-25 yo campus recruiting Vote wisely in the upcoming election
The Brownshirt factions, (Groypers v Kirkers) are gearing up to vie for best future SS team. Their will be violence and intimidation of the left to show their true colors But don't be surprised to see them eat more of each other's faces because this is a race to see who is more orthodox & badass
idiocracy
No states have broken off from the rest of the country yet so how can we have a civil war?
Once shooting starts all over the US and retaliation follows, that's a civil war, irrespective of what states do. This is exactly what Trump wants, so he and his ass-crawlers can lead the country to martial law and Putin style democratic elections.
I don’t think it’s that simple unless law enforcement gives up.
Hopefully you're right But law enforcement was completely outnumber on 9/11. One officer died the following day, one lost an eye, one lost fingers, and the only person who could have stopped them being beaten sat and watched it for 3 hours Kirk's widow promised his [hate-filled] legacy will live on
What a stupid comment. Projection much😒
👏Sarah
Get his ass.
What needs to happen is shoeleather reporters must go interview peers of Robinson. None of this anonymous sourcing like what the Guardian did, which they had to walk back (but only after the damage was done). Actual info needs to be publicized about Robinson & his roommate to stop this rumor mill.
Fuck yeah, @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social
A groyper killed a trumper. But yeah, blame the left, asshole.
The audacity of an average male thinking he’s smarter than @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social 🤣
His EW Erickson seems appropriate. maybe add a couple more www... EWwwwwErickson.
charlesjohnson.substack.com/p/the-cullin... Israeli-asset posing as journalist Eric Erickson is backed by Israeli-connected billionaires Barre Seid and Paul Singer. #IsraeliAsset #ErickErickson
Erick was the original patient 0 of trumpian violent threats and action. Dude has 0 balls. Just a feckless attack man for hire.
Good Lord, Erik. Why pick a fight with The Bulwark?
@ewerickson.bsky.social - you know sometimes I wish you actually follow the values of the person that you supposedly worship religiously. How fucking hard is it. How about empathy for the children, or how about actually caring about what happened to this person to make him go to this point? Phony
Also stop looking to the left and the right to blame people. Why don’t you look up? Don’t you get that?
Are we really going to have a WAR about "too much woke" or whatever? At least the Civil War was about something.
Oh it's still about racism and white supremacy
Is Sara not on Bluesky?
I blame the parents.
I would say the parent's gun fetish culture put him in the race, fuentes and loomer's online influence pushed him over the finish line
I reminisce the days when we watched 1 hour of news then watched evening sitcoms. We now live in 24/7 news cycles, social media and Influencers. Kids and adults glued to their phones trying to separate reality from conspiracy
Agreed. There was no need for 24hr news channels. There were other factors, but I'd say the internet and smartphones destroyed America.
One's a girl, the other is a guy. Guess which is which (surprise!)
Hmmm not trans or black either
Fuentes, Loomer, Kirk, Rogan, Alex Jones and the rest of them be like...
Fox
Lol.
I've always said that if K-12 teachers and college profs had the kind of power over young people's minds that those on the right claim they have, our students would actually read their texts, listen carefully to lectures, do the assignments, and prepare for exams. We wouldn't waste it on politics.
Occum's Razor. And, Democrats can rig elections.
Kudos to Sarah!
Kilmeade said homeless people should receive a “involuntary lethal injection…just kill them all”. Musk says if ‘we don’t fight the left, they will kill us’. FOX, Musk and that whole cabal are terrorists indoctrinating people with hate, fear and lies. Just. Like. Al-Qaeda. PROVE ME WRONG
I'm not sure that I'd even argue that it was a "political murder" at this point, just like wouldn't argue that the shooting in Butler, PA was an assassination attempt. Both look staged to me, except UVU shooter didn't miss. Coincidence?
I am a Canadian, and I am wondering why Americans are so stupid.
Maybe go dig up some of the First Nations kids you buried and then extract more oil sands and call us later? We are trying to put out our dumpster fire. Go tend to yours.
Plenty of finger pointing about native genocide and rapacious ecocide to go around, bud. But to be fair, we have our own contingent of self-owning dummies here, too.
Repulselicans! Since Regan… downwards fast.
That is the $64B question.
It’s best to ignore the Kirk incident altogether. God for that a douchenozzle like him becomes a martyr.
Says everything about HIM
I wonder what people like Erricson will pivot to if this shooter was a part of the even farther right that hated Kirk for not being "maga enough"?
I’m with the bulwark.
A sensible civilized position in the hysteria of the moment is 'left' Binary 'politics' make it bad, give confused vengeful people. In the shining city on the hill people run around lost or participate in orgies of violence and hatred Fox drives around with bullhorns spewing vitriol. Jesters reign.
🎉🫶🥂
That’s a big assumption, that half the country backs Kirk’s philosophy.
PROOF THAT PROPAGANDA WORKS Listening to the Sheeple on the Right talking against Political Violence committed against a guy that urged his followers to Raise Bail money for the guy that Attacked Nancy Pelosi's Husband.... The Height of Hypocrisy
Isn’t this the stupid fucker that’s been whining his wife is stage 4 and can’t get the Covid vax?
I keep coming back to this... now with music. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGaZ...
Fun!
Yeah. My purpose in life.
Trump CALLS FOR VIOLENCE Against Democrats youtu.be/sXJY3-Ub-CY?...
This Erickson is the pits.
