"Trump has been signaling for a decade or so that political violence committed by his supporters is acceptable and might even be rewarded...Trump and...his acolytes frame such conduct not as violence, but as legitimate...self-defense;...they portray themselves as perpetual victims."

Violence As Policy in Trump’s America
Jan-Werner Mueller argues that the murder of Charlie Kirk has highlighted the fundamental asymmetry of contemporary US politics.

What happened to Charlie Kirk is also what happened to 20 children (ages 6 and 7) at the Sandy Hook Elementary School.

I don’t remember the right being this upset back then—do you? 🤨

Charlie Kirk’s assassination was horrific.

That doesn’t change the fact that the vast majority of gun (and political) violence has been perpetuated by right wingers.

You don’t get to change the narrative at will.

I'm horrified to hear that Charlie Kirk was shot at an event in Utah.

Democratic societies will always have political disagreements, but we must never allow America to become a country that confronts those disagreements with violence.

Mark and I are praying for Charlie's recovery.

My main observation from the last few hours of monitoring US social media is that Democrats are universally denouncing political violence and calling for calm while MAGA are escalating language and openly lusting for retribution against broad categories of people they identity as their enemies.

The Speaker Emerita of the Minnesota House was gunned down in her home and slaughtered along with her husband and dog, and Trump didn't say a thing.

If Trump is so strong, why does Putin feel emboldened to attack NATO during his presidency?

So much for the idea that 'the war would never have happened if I were president’

Duckworth: "It was an illegal move by the Trump administration. There's a thing called due process in this country and that needed to have happened. And the fact it happened in international waters actually opens Americans to a similar action by our adversaries"

"The GOP is signing on to mass murder of children based on the novel theories of a man who has no party ties except a single Trump endorsement. It is a measure of the party’s utter hollowness, brokenness, and evil that even in this case, it can barely find the resources to demur."

New in PN: RFK Jr gives Republicans a chance to defy Trump on easy mode

"What’s really notable is the extent to which GOP leaders have remained supine even in the face of a radical assault on their grandchildren by a transparent death-dealing fraud who wasn’t even a member of the party a year ago."

ICE just prevented me from entering an immigration detention facility in my district—a clear violation of federal law.
