Kimmel didn’t even really say anything negative about Kirk. He noted the cynical and almost giddy exploitation of the killing by right-wing propagandists, absolutely accurately, and in gentler terms than I would have used.

The "revenge tax" now removed from OBBBA was not just a media story. It actually had interesting policy content. Taxing capital imports, for example, may be superior to tariffing goods. I offer a preliminary scholarly analysis here: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....
