When Trump calls for violence, he's not being figurative or fanciful. He actually wants his enemies to be shot. What happened to Renee Good, Alex Pretti, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo and Johan Sebastian Duran Guerrero was the natural outcome of regime policy. More will die until the tyrant is stopped.

Economist here: It’s important to note that due to inflation (and employment) assessment methodology changes the Trump regime forced through at BLS and various other official economic data-generating entities in the federal government, the inflation rate is likely much higher than is being reported.

The shooting provoked angry protests as Mayor Mamdani, Gov. Hochul and other officials condemned ICE operations in the city — and it appeared to show the limits of the mayor’s friendly relationship with President Trump.

She said: Promise made, promise kept.

The more combative Dems get, the more of this they will run into. It will be a coordinated wave of elite opinion, scolding them, tamping them down. The fight strategy *only* works if they are willing to bull their way through it, blow it off, mock it. (Their history does not raise one's hopes.)

I agree with this. “Let’s all just try to get along within the norms” can’t be how you deal with stuff happening so far outside the norms. I get why they want to cling to the rules, but if one side has gamed the system, the rules will only work for them.
