Should Democrats demand a thorough investigation into Charlie Kirkās killer and the whole internet poisoned culture that drives so much of this? Any investigation would be a bad look for the whole right wing, but also how do they justify publicly voting not to pursue it after all this? Worse look?

Thereās a way to be respectful in reporting on Charlie Kirk being shot while also refusing to whitewash who he was and what consequences his political activism has had. Obituaries for public figures are a part of history.

I think it's good to keep getting mad about evil and unjust things, if only to remind yourself and everyone else that these things are in fact evil and unjust. I don't think it's naive. Nor is it wise and sophisticated to adopt a "You fool, nothing matters and nothing good can ever happen" posture

A Dem demand to reverse the SCOTUS, and block ICE from targeting Latinos for their race, is a brutal wedge for the GOP and MAGA. They can either gut the racial terror campaign that the base loves, or they can announce to Latinos they're targets.

There's a grim irony in Oprah specifically pivoting away from the shock content that her daytime peers embraced (as she realized it just platformed jerks,) into the things like celebrity interviews & the book club, which still accidentally just platformed the same ideologies, just in a suit & tie.

Trump doesn't seem to see that some people are still immune to his threats. Jack White criticized Trump's Oval Office decor. The White House then called White a "washed-up, has-been loser... masquerading as a real artist." And White, undeterred, posted an absolutely blistering takedown in response.
