The murder of Charlie Kirk was criminal, wrong, and should be condemned.
And Charlie Kirk was a horrible, hateful man who spent his life radicalizing young people to embrace their worst demons by targeting women, people of color, immigrants, and the marginalized.
I refuse to sanitize him.

Dan Greaney, Simpsons writer who predicted Trump's election, said a few weeks ago he'd be out of office by the end of the year. I hope it wasn't just wishful thinking, but an inspired psychic prediction.

1873 - The Spanish legislature passed a law abolishing slavery in the colony of Puerto Rico.
Although slaves were legally “free,” they were forced to compensate their former owners for the loss of their “property” by paying for their freedom with three years of labor.
