The motivation of the man who shot Charlie Kirk isn't clear (although he's probably mentally unstable--duh). What is clear is it was another example of American gun violence.

Today’s act of political violence in Utah against Charlie Kirk is absolutely disgusting and unacceptable.
We don’t have to agree on everything, but we should all agree on this: political violence is wrong, and has no place in our democracy

The New Yorker asked me “how bad” today’s Supreme Court ruling was. I boiled it down to one paragraph:

The GOP says there’s no inherent racism in US law
But the Supreme Court just ruled ICE can use racial profiling to detain Latinos
Sotomayor’s dissent
“We should not have to live in a country where the Government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish,and appears to work a low wage job”

Justice Kavanaugh filed an opinion today telling Justice Sotomayor that it’s “common sense” that a Latina in the U.S. might not be here legally.
That’s a deep, deep low point in Supreme Court history—disgraceful.

BREAKING: In Chicago, Illinois—U.S. citizens protesting ICE were dragged into vans by masked federal agents with no badges and no warrants.
People screamed: “Who are you? Where are you taking them?”
This is authoritarian control in real time.

Trump has declared war on Chicago and now his secret police are running racist ads in Edgewater.
Let’s be clear: ICE isn’t welcome here. Trump isn’t welcome here. And they’re certainly not going to recruit their goons from here.

Hey everyone...LOOK OVER HERE! It's Lt. Col. Bone Spurs declaring war on an American city!!! Does his rough tough cream-puff cosplay make you forget about the EPSTEIN survivors, their lifetime of trauma & their courage to speak the truth in public?
Yeah, me neither.

One of the most remarkable things of the last 9 months is how many Americans seem to believe the President is all powerful and Congress has no say.
Actually Congress has been ineffective by choice. It has immense power if it had the courage to use it.
