Watching all these centrist pundits stress the “civility” of Charlie Kirk’s style without addressing the ugliness of his substance is giving me a renewed appreciation of how the civil, polite White Citizens’ Councils conned the same crowd into thinking they were distinct from the cruder Klan.

Though it’s traumatic for me to bring this up, I was targeted by a group allied with Turning Point USA in 2018, with the help of Tucker Carlson on Fox. My home address circulated online and I got death threats. 1/

When you publish a website that posts the names and photos of scholars who have written or said things you disagree with and encourage people to surveil and harass them, you are not, in fact, a “free speech” organization.

I had no wish for him to be murdered, but I’ll harshly judge anyone who flies their flag at half staff for that hateful extremist or talks about honoring his memory. There was no honor in his life.

You can condemn murder and political violence without whitewashing Charlie Kirk's shameful history of hate, racism, white nationalism and promotion of dangerous conspiracies that radicalized Trump supporters to violence. You can do both.

This is correct. Mitch McConnell and John Roberts are, between them, the two public officials most responsible for what has happened to democratic governance. (Roger Ailes, Leonard Leo, Rupert Murdoch, the brothers Koch, etc on Mt. Rushmore, but not as public officials. Comey in here somewhere.)

On December 14, 2012, a mass shooter murdered 20 children, ages 6 and 7, and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut. Four days later, evangelical author James Dobson claimed the mass shooting was God's retribution for abortion and gay marriage. He died today at 89.

James Dobson was the reason I began this journey of speaking out against the Evangelical Church and the GOP. In the immediate wake of the Sandy Hook shootings, he and Mike Huckabee declared it happened because God had been "taken out of schools.

If you started paying attention to the US in 1960, this sure feels like the darkest timeline. But unfortunately, purges against Black & brown people are normal US behavior. You know what's NOT normal US behavior? This is the first time there's been a mass movement to STOP a purge in real time.

Trump Just Went Absolutely Nuclear in Screwing Over MAGA Voters
He has persuaded the media and many voters that he’s different from earlier Republicans on economics—but he’s now doubled-down on the GOP’s plutocratic agenda.

How about we have party leaders focus on the words of a United States congressman - Sen. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama - who’s calling Black people “inner city rats” who leach off of America’s taxpayers. Stop the focus on municipal elections and get to this. Where is the censure and condemnation?

I had the privilege of attending game one of the World Series on Saturday, and the fans in and around the park were a cross-section of the city. There were plenty of folks old enough to remember the '59 team. Almost everyone remembered the 2000 team that made the playoffs.
A few were even alive in 1917. A staffer of mine, a Southside Irishman and a sox fan all his life, mentioned a 92-year-old woman at Saturday's game. She was jumping and cheering so much with every hit and every run that my staffer worried for her health!

Yes. A big part of why so many young men are turning to destructive, amoral, misogynistic, bigoted, selfish, self-absorbed, blame-everyone-else ideologies is because that's what their dads believe in.

I’m so confused by the folks who said that raising the minimum wage would increase the price of every day goods while also being okay with tariffs raising the price of every day goods… I reckon they are okay paying higher prices as long as it doesn’t help anyone making a minimum wage.

I often give MSM headline-writers/editors a hard time on framing of political news. So now a note of compliment to hed-writers + photo and layout editors who put together today's WSJ print front page. (h/t @jorgeguajardo.bsky.social ) If Dickens or Dreiser were writing this, would seem overdone
Front page of WSJ. Main headline says "Market Carnage Worsens." Right below it is headline saying "Trump Heads to Golf Club Amid Tariff Turmoil."
