    Kirk is one thing. He was a giant asshole, but he believed what he preached. And no child deserves to grow up without their father. In that respect, I have some sympathy for the family.

    Cheney was just another level of awful, horrible person. He believed in nothing but furthering his own goals, eg power and money. He plundered and raped the Middle East for personal gain and knowingly lied about every pretense. And his family are all old enough to know he was a terrible person. Fuck 'em.

    To quote a great man, “I mean, say what you want about the tenets of National Socialism, Dude, at least it’s an ethos.”

      Kirk was a grifter, he didn’t believe in shit. Neither does his wife, who live tweeted her grieving process and immediately set her sights on JD Vance to move up in the world

      He died to what he stood for - political violence

      His kids don’t deserve any of this, but my compassion is busy with kids who are being held at gunpoint or missing meals
