TERRORIsM

The El Paso attack by a white supremacist is only the most recent in a growing trend of domestic terror, fueled by racism and hate.

It’s time for the law to catch up. We should create a narrowly-tailored domestic terrorism law that protects civil liberties.

NAZI

No more both sides

When white supremacists come to town to attack "antifa" and the whole city turns out to oppose them, and the President parrots the fascists' line, he's not talking about "both sides" anymore. He's chosen a side. pic.twitter.com/kQ1yelyVQj

My new post is about the tensions between the New York Times and its core readership over Trump coverage. And there's a new factor: a younger generation of Times journalists who wonder if leadership might be blowing it. Grab a coffee and read about it: https://t.co/wrvmtAm1Kd

poll

I’m most struck by the dramatic decline in ⁦@JoeBiden⁩‘s favorable ratings, from 54%-22% positive to 34%-38% negative(all adults). Opponents’ attacks & media scrutiny have had a big impact. Same for Bernie. Warren’s just so-so. Trump is low as usual. https://t.co/cMYwsI9lLq

I just asked my neighbor why he removed the Trump sign from his lawn, where it had been since 2016. He replied, “I couldn’t ignore his racism any longer. My son [10 years old] asked why I still support him, and I had no answer. If you lose your kid’s respect, you’ve got nothing.”
