"These terrorizing acts are despicable," the White House has said about the spate of bombs sent to Obama/Clinton/Soros. But they are also predictable, given the inflammatory, hate-inciting rhetoric of the man in the Oval Office.

Thanks for the retweet if you think it is worth pondering the choice between ending war and making it more humane. newrepublic.com/article/151560…

Breaking: wealthy WASP men with Jewish son-in-laws "are not racists." Also, birtherism is not racist, since, after all, "a lot of people were not born in America." From Donald Trump's biggest fan at Yale, in conversation with @IChotiner. slate.com/news-and-polit…

"The 2018 election could go in two different ways: It could be tainted by voter suppression, or it could be remembered as an election in which voting rights were expanded for millions of people." @AriBerman n.pr/2OFlZhU

Which may explain the appeal of movies like Spotlight and The Post, depicting a world one senses is slipping away.

Twenty years ago today, a horrific act of homegrown terrorism occurred - the murder of Barnett Slepian, an abortion provider from Buffalo, who was shot in the kitchen of his home by a "pro-life" zealot. buffalonews.com/2018/10/21/20-…

I am inclined to agree but also feel the entire media is being suckered. Here we are on the eve of the midterms, talking about the .2 percent of people who cross the southern border and are from the M East.

Serious question for media scholars like @jayrosen_nyu: should Trump’s laughable claim that terrorists are infiltrating border be debunked or ignored? Debunking draws more attention to them. On other hand, a lot of people believe the bogus claim. nyti.ms/2An4Bpk?smid=n…

It's incredible to hear Sontag give 'Illness as Metaphor' as a talk in 1977. She was an original member of the NYIH. twitter.com/NYIHatNYU/stat…

Indeed: ‘alter-globalization’ isn’t a monopoly of the left. The far right has its own very dangerous version, which a liberal conventional wisdom has obscured. twitter.com/maxstrasser/st…
