A former speechwriter for Donald Trump, Darren Beattie, owns the conservative site Revolver News. According to the Daily Dot, it's a popular site. I've never heard of it, but I have heard of Beattie, who got fired from the Trump administration for attending a conference at which white supremacists were present. He's a real piece of work. He has spun conspiracy theories about the Jan. 6 riots on Fox News Tucker Carlson show.
It's as if this guy has no redeeming qualities. To confirm that, his site unleashed a disgusting tweet about women in the wake of Roe v. Wade being overturned.
"BREAKING: It's now legal to shoot women having abortions in New York City with your Supreme Court-issued concealed handgun " the blog tweeted.
The tweet was removed, and the site claims it was satire, but shooting women isn't funny. I don't get the joke, and conservatives on the behemoth social site are defending Revolver News.

Yup, the valley of the shadow of death is America under GZP rule. "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil..." a mantra I memorized as a child. Who knew I would need it.

Any man who jokes about killing women is probably an abuser-- or wants to be.
