The United States Of Violence

 

Oh, and both suspects had firearms, even though vehicles were their primary weapons. 

Not much to add beyond being as horrified as everyone else. 

When a substantial portion of your citizenry fetishizes weapons and violence to the point of hawking AR-15 style brooches, you probably shouldn't be too shocked. 

But perhaps we should still be horrified. 

Happy New Year. 

Mediocrity Is Its Own Reward

 

Whether the TFG former and future's endorsement matters is an open question, I guess. 

Something tells me MAGA Mike might be wishing he'd taken the beauty contest instead of the Speakership before too long. 

Anyway, adios to 2024. 

I'll be taking a few days off to ring in the new year. 

Cheers!
