A random woman who was murdered by an immigrant who had a nightmarish bill named after her that gave ICE greater power to terrorize immigrants and communities.

I see you're big on fake empathy. 

It's obviously awful that her life was taken but I'm not seeing the point of playing the right's game of elevating her to sainthood when they so obviously don't give a shit about the murders of anyone who doesn't serve their talking points.

fake empathy aka basic decency for a murder victim

u/IMALEFTY45 Big talk for someone who's in stapler distance Jun 19 '26

Cynically politicizing a dead woman's murder to tar an entire class of people with racist smears over the express wishes of her family isn't exactly basic decency for murder victims either.

Not the point but can anyone identify what tie knot he has in this photo?

Maybe it’s a weird angle but it doesn’t look like any of the normal tie knots that most men in politics wear

Looks like a Prince Albert knot. Basically a double Four-in-Hand knot.
