When I was young, if we wanted to find the secret rave, we'd have to be smart enough to solve a puzzle with a few clues placed around the city that would eventually lead us to the address. The next G7 should do that.

Awful: Trump just threatened to send troops into other cities. The conundrum is this: Faced with a president whose bad faith/willingness to invent fake pretexts for abusing his powers is limitless, the system is crashing, pushing us toward the abyss.

Giant firms like Amazon and Tesla will be fine if 16 million people lose their healthcare.
You know who won't be?
Small businesses who will go broke trying to make up the cost or lose good workers.
They're cannibalizing this whole country to give tax breaks to billionaires.

This assassination makes the Minnesota house even. I'm waiting for the first Republican Minnesota state legislator to commit to sit out votes until Rep. Hortman is replaced - otherwise Republicans are hugely benefiting from and complicit in this sort of political violence.
This was a targeted political assassination. Every single Republican needs to condemn this violence before more people end up dead.
