Republicans feel comfortable demanding Joe Biden's resignation in a way that they didn't with Trump because they think it's a perverse appeal to his sense of honor and duty. A trait the former president didn't have and thus, couldn't be appealed to.

Brian is projecting the emotions he feels during school shootings. https://t.co/570aom87z2

Interesting. I mean it’s not like he’s the one who eagerly tweets out the text of the second amendment minutes after news begins to break of yet another shooting.

Let me get this straight: Getting vaccinated to save others during a pandemic is a personal choice, but what a woman does with her own body should be mandated by the government?

Does H.R. McMaster know that American soldiers were killed in Afghanistan while he was national security advisor? https://t.co/MesUrJfp03

I hope someone followed up by asking about previous terrorist attacks. During Trump's term, there were at least 560 causalities from ISIL attacks in Afghanistan. 141 of these occurred under McMaster's watch. 98 more were killed in the 3 weeks after McMaster's resignation https://t.co/Ax4pDf47Li

It wasn’t hubris that drove America into Afghanistan. It was fear. by Robert Kagan
Americans may consider their Afghan experience a failure. They would do it all over again if given the choice.

You spent years trying to corrupt and then overturn a US presidential election, including hijacking US foreign policy to strongarm an ally under duress to aid your corrupt scheme, all to keep a sociopath whose mismanagement helped kill 600,000 Americans in power illegitimately. https://t.co/9sJwb3Qpsi

You don’t have to take seriously those who see US troops getting killed primarily as an opportunity to repeat preconceived domestic political talking points without considering strategic circumstances or realistic alternatives to US actions.
They’re not taking it seriously either

This was a lie when you first said it in 2015, it is a lie now.

Some abortion clinics donate tissue for lifesaving medical research, with patient consent. They don't "profit" from it. Nothing is sold, and money doesn't change hands except to reimburse the cost of transport. https://t.co/zJMW9MBAIz

Afghanistan coverage once again answering the question, "is there any amount of lying or bad faith that would cause the media to stop giving Republicans the benefit of the doubt?"

The equation of sensible public health measures to the systematic prosecution and extermination of the Jews during WWII is a heinous rewriting of history and discounting of the real horrors of the Holocaust. https://t.co/K3QKrPEgdu

Reportedly 10 US deaths in Kabul airport attack.
All those "evacuation with no casualties" comments now moot. I'm not confident it was avoidable—US forces taking over the area around the airport would've made them more vulnerable, not less—but that doesn't make this any better.

Unlike many on the Left, I don't think Americans against Afghan refugee resettlement are racist or bigoted. Many have valid concerns.

But I do think they're wrong. In this new video, I explain why we should welcome Afghan refugees.

Yeah you’re right they’re totally not racist or bigotted in any way they’re just economically anxious or something like that. Valid concerns my ass.

As much as I’d like to disagree with the assertion that conservatives are treating the latest suicide bombings in Afghanistan as if they’re a harbinger of early Christmas, I keep running across example after example after example of barely contained glee. Oh, and never missing an opportunity to get those sweet sweet clicks. Like this one.
