Trumpists will be giving the ICE murderer awards and recognitions and honors. That’s because (1) killing someone who thinks differently than they do is their fantasy (2) most of them are too spineless to do it but (3) by praising the murderer they can murder in a fantasy-league way

There’s a way to be respectful in reporting on Charlie Kirk being shot while also refusing to whitewash who he was and what consequences his political activism has had. Obituaries for public figures are a part of history.

NEWS: The USAID official put on leave for disseminating two memos about Rubio's failure to push through life-saving foreign aid was in the process of writing a THIRD memo when fired. We obtained it. It's far more alarming than the first two.

NEW: The axing of some 10,000 programs has consigned untold numbers of children and refugees to death, officials say. Documents and interviews reveal that the State Department appears to have made the cuts without the careful review it described in court.

@nytimes.com the evaluation of transgender issues and “DEI” is, frankly, vile. Your Opinion writers are clearly incapable of empathy and uninterested in state sponsored discrimination and significant civil rights regressions. The Times should be ashamed of itself. I’ll be canceling my subscription.

The most important thing to do now in Ukraine is to stop the killing, Megan Stack writes. “Trump is correct about that — but, being Trump, he’s managing to make peace in the ugliest possible way.”

Some responses to the pandemic illustrated how resourceful and resilient communities can be if we reallocate underused public spaces

You’d think that the popularity and sustained success of the program would justify its continued existence, but as always (parked) cars take priority over people.
Dining sheds helped keep New York City restaurants afloat during the worst of the coronavirus pandemic. To some urbanists, they were a bold experiment in rethinking public space. To others, they were an eyesore. Now, new city rules are forcing their removal. nyti.ms/495r60U

“A country that allows its environment to be ravaged, its children to be shot, its wealth to be hoarded, its workers to be exploited, its poor to starve, its cops to murder, and its minorities to be hunted doesn’t really deserve to be ‘saved.’ It deserves to fail.”
