The culture has shifted. The NFL wouldn't have done this 8 years ago…or even a year ago. RIP Charlie. pic.twitter.com/3Nt2McA5U3

They circulated the wrong voter record of the wrong guy and claimed he was a Trump supporter/MAGA.
They photoshopped a Trump shirt on the shooter.
They claimed his family said he was right wing (it’s the opposite).

MAYBE BECAUSE PEOPLE KEEP THEIR APPENDICES NOW? A Forgotten Cancer Is Rising in Young People, And Experts Are Puzzled. “Appendix cancer is a condition that, until recently, was so rare that most people never gave it a second thought.”
Actually there seems to be more than that going on here. But I heard some students talking about tonsil stones recently and I realized I never used to hear about those, probably because most people in my generation had their tonsils out at like five years old.

NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU HATE THE MEDIA, IT’S NOT ENOUGH:
After Charlie was attacked by antifa at a breakfast in Philadelphia this was Cenk’s response.

I'd rather the assassination had failed. But I'm rather enjoying the way the Left is hourly being forced into evermore contorted defensive positions, only to have them blown up by the next disclosure. https://t.co/mHiCfW2fIV

TRUTH SHOULD ALWAYS BE A DEFENSE: Teacher Disciplined for Saying “Privilege” Training Involved “White-Bashing BS” Can Go Forward with First Amendment Claim.
And you just know it was true.
A FRIEND WRITES: “In July, I asked Charlie Kirk, ‘When the history books look back on the second great awakening you’re spearheading, will they refer to it as the “Great Turning Point”?’ He laughed and said that was a sweet sentiment but that all the credit should go to God. Job well done, good and faithful servant. What a legacy. What a loss for us here on earth.”
