Columbia University, main campus. Once an open thoroughfare, shaded by tall noble trees. Now closed to the public, the big trees torn up and replaced by stunted exemplars of other species, planted deep in the summer vacation, and yellowing, dying. In an novel, the metaphor would seem heavy-handed.

what democracy
We don’t yet know what motivated the person who shot and killed Charlie Kirk, but this kind of despicable violence has no place in our democracy. Michelle and I will be praying for Charlie’s family tonight, especially his wife Erika and their two young children.
