It has been 60 years, to the day, since LBJ released a report to the public about pollution. I wrote about appendix Y4 of that report.

Progress requires that we are capable of complicated thoughts.

Political violence is universally condemned,
AND it takes on many forms,
AND every victim is a tragedy,
AND there is poetic justice when its perpetrators befall victim to it,
AND we must continue to fight against it.

The fact that the left was being blamed by right-wing leaders before the killer was known tells you that it mattered not what the realities on the ground were but that there was a narrative to push regardless. And that, is exactly how we got here.

The deadline has come and gone for the government to appeal the ruling that blocks Mahmoud’s detention — he must be released immediately.

Anything further is an attempt to prolong his unconstitutional and arbitrary detention.
Judge rules Trump administration cannot continue to detain Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil
The judge is staying his injunction until Friday to allow the Department of Homeland Security time to appeal the decision.
