The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

So yes, of *course* Donald Trump, the most violence-inciting politician in the U.S. since the Civil War—who went from inciting Assaults in 2015 to inciting Seditious Conspiracy in 2020 to straight-up murdering people in international waters last week—has an interest in rewriting history now.

What we just saw major media do over the last week was the equivalent of a breathless minute-by-minute analysis of what happened between the moment Jim Jones ordered his flock to drink the Kool-Aid and the moment it did so.
Just pointless earned media for a madman dead-set on destroying everything.

Opinion | The GOP's Transphobia Is As Much of A "Distraction" As Hitler's Anti-Semitism Was. Will Democrats Learn From History?

Content warning: blood, serious head injury. A woman was run down and trampled and clubbed by LAPD officers on horseback. She appears to be seriously injured and bleeding from the head as an officer drags her limp body along the pavement.
