| “Shattered stained-glass windows raining down on children should rouse us against guns,” Joan Walsh writes. “But Trump has too many people paralyzed.”
After the shooting in Minneapolis this week, in which two children died and many more were injured, kids and parents throughout the country are traumatized, just in time for the new school year. “I don’t know that there’s political sense to be made of this nightmare…but I unapologetically add it to the sense of terror the Trump regime is spreading,” Walsh writes.
Meanwhile, Trump is still guarding Washington like it’s a war zone, and senselessly trying to fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook based on what Chris Lehmann calls a “flimsy pretext.” What he is not doing, though, according to our architecture critic, Kate Wagner, is adding a 90,000-foot extension to the White House—despite his belligerent announcement to the contrary.
