Rational Republicans

from The Young Turks · host TYT Network

President Joe Biden sparked anger and frustration in the wake of a Texas mass shooting with remarks about gun safety reform that included describing two GOP congressional leaders as “rational.” Texas Gov. Greg Abbott was met with boos as he arrived at a memorial site for victims of the elementary school massacre in Uvalde, which sparked a nationwide wave of grief and anger over lawmakers’ persistent—and industry-funded—inaction on gun violence. A far-right Missouri organization has launched a disturbing map alerting followers to “hot spots” of so-called “woke” activity in the state. The Canadian government has introduced legislation that would put a freeze on importing, buying or selling handguns. Is Top Gun 2 propaganda for the US military?
