      Honoring a guy who openly wanted genocide in Gaza and wanted to have trans people at home killed also isn’t “decorum” but I guess that’s too complex for you to understand

        On Friday, the House also approved the resolution, despite 96 Democrats declining to support it.

        Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi, whose husband Paul was the victim to political violence himself, was among the 22 Democrats who walked out without voting on the Kirk resolution, but did vote on the short-term government funding bill. Four Republicans also skipped the vote.

        it’s all in the article but i guess that’s “too complex for you to read?”

      Which party member shot Charlie Kirk?

      I can’t believe that it’s so hard for people to believe that someone who made a career being a hate monger was murdered for it.

      The kid who killed him was not a politician, he didn’t even vote. He was in a relationship with someone who belonged to a group that Kirk made money on by saying heinous shit about constantly.

        Is there proof he was had a trans girlfriend? I find it hard to believe with everything else coming out about him.
