One of my favorite moments in the history of free speech: Larry Flynt publishing a satirical Campari ad featuring Jerry Falwell Sr. as an incestuous drunk who first had sex with his mother in an outhouse. Falwell sued. In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court found that satire is protected speech.

Due to demand, Democracy Docket has dropped the paywall on my latest. To say that the media is bending a knee, falsely assumes there are still hardened bones and a joint in place in their operations. Their mission now is to report the news fearfully and to seek Trumpâs favor.

Yes, this is who we are: Americaâs 250-year history of political violence
The US has long fused politics and violence, often through firearms. To claim that such shootings betray âwho we areâ is to forget that the US was founded on this form of political violence.

This is what I would call institutional support. For a team of reporters, editors, graphic designers and others who put in a lot of work to write a tough but accurate and fair piece that documents an important moment in modern US history. A telling moment in Trump term two. Transparency matters.

I wondered why flags were half staff when I was in Hawaiâi. After looking it up, it is because Trump ordered them half staff because of the Minnesota church shooting. This is not usual. Perhaps it should be. Then we can all see the frequency of mass shootings.
