When they go low...

Conservative Spokeswoman for the National Rifle Association Dana Loesch railed against 2020 Presidential candidate and current Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA) on NRA TV.

Loesch insisted that Harris is a "socialist" and an "existential threat" to the right of Americans to bear arms.

Loesch then asked viewers to donate to the National Rifle Association, calling it "the one organization powerful enough to disrupt the socialist plans to disarm America," and "the one organization that she fears."

Harris, who recounts learning to use her gut as a prosecutor in her recent memoir The Truths We Hold, didn't hesitate to confront Loesch.

There have been approximately 35 mass shootings since the beginning of 2019, so many Americans rallied behind Harris's response.

Loesch, however, was right about one thing.

Republican lawmakers are widely influenced by the stratospheric amounts of money the NRA donates to Republican campaigns.

In the 2016 election alone, the organization spent a total of $419 million to elect Republican candidates. It was an increase of $100 million from the previous election cycle, leading many to believe the increase in funds were gained by insidious measures.

One 2018 poll showed 60% of Americans believe the NRA had too much influence on American politics.

Their bulwark against sensible gun control reform disturbs Americans everywhere.

However, not all hope is lost.

The 2018 midterms saw gun control groups outspend the NRA for the first time.

MAGA Senator Slammed After Scolding Americans For Whining About High Gas Prices Amid Iran War—And Wow

Kansas Republican Senator Roger Marshall chastised Americans for complaining about high gas prices and insisted they should consider that their "national security is even more important" than whatever blows are being dealt to their wallets at the gas pump.

Consumer prices are up 3.3% compared to a year ago, largely fueled by a surge in energy costs. The energy index jumped 10.9% in a single month as oil and gas prices climbed sharply. Amid the Iran war and the U.S. blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, oil has risen back to around $100 a barrel, pushing gasoline prices up by a record 25%.

A lot is going on in our world right now that gives us pause, and some of us might feel our hearts breaking under the weight of all of it. That makes acts of kindness, no matter how small they are, more important than ever before.

X user @oatmilkanie shouted out an unidentified child who clearly got the memo when they boarded a plane and discovered that the child had written a note for the next person to sit in their seat, directly on the paper nausea bag that's snuggled in the seat pocket in front of the passenger's knees.

But discovering a whole other room with a creepy door would quickly transform a space from a rental to something out of a horror movie real quick for anybody.
