The way those Texans with Abbott responded to Beto was an embarrassment not only to American culture, but to humanity.

Beto exercised a civil confrontation. (It's not like he jumped on the stage and punched Abbott in the face, FFS).

It still pains me to be such a latecomer to know your work. Apart from other political cartoonists, your work evokes more emotion than the sardonic nature of others. This is extraordinary.

Brilliant work today. I don't know how you did it, as I am functioning at half steam due to this tragedy that should have been avoided long, long ago.

Thank you for these strong voices and the extraordinary portraits of the speakers, Steve. Gabby Giffords adds her voice: "This has been a tough week—no doubt—and it will be hard to watch Trump speak today. But it will be a clear illustration of what we are up against: a far-right committed to the profits of gun manufacturers above all else. Gun extremists who believe that guns being the leading cause of death for kids is just the cost of doing business."

Powerful reinforcement that there are not good people on all sides. Only bad people can stay Republican in 2022.

Kate: The old phrase "wave the bloody shirt" needs to be brought back. We must wave it in their faces every day.
