    White nationalist policy is expensive, whether counting taxpayer dollars or souls sold. Why shouldn’t those who defend it pay a social cost? I wrote for about Democrats calling for decorum and civility when we need justice and accountability.

    The neighbors called the cops on 12-year-old Reginald Fields because he accidentally cut part of their lawn. How is that a crime? The police did nothing to the kid, but why did they even bother to show up? There are systemic problems here to be addressed.

    Reginald Fields is the same age that Tamir Rice was. The same age, on the east side of the same city where we all were 12-year-old black boys. Calling the cops on him for mowing a lawn isn’t just bad. It was a threat on his life, and we should say as much.

    Trump made a fairly explicit threat against after all she did was call for people to be rude to White House officials who perpetuate evils like family separation. In the interest of “civility,” Democrats backed him up, not her. Now, this.

    I do hope that, one day, realize that they will never win with respectability politics. “When they go low, we go high” doesn’t help those who need justice. Nor does tossing folks like Maxine Waters under the bus. My latest for .

    Trump is deliberately stoking a certain anger. It may not be directly responsible for the mass shooting that killed five journalists. But he gives that same anger a voice, and manifests it, violently, in policy. , on that point.

    Keep asking this question. At pressers, in interviews, on tarmacs. Keep asking until he responds. He may lie, then continue doing it. But it matters to have him on the record.

    No cookies for stating the obvious. Journalists should be able to work in a newsroom without the fear of being murdered. The only news here is that refuses to recognize publicly that he has made that fear more palpable—and won’t commit to stopping.

    Anthony Kennedy’s son Justin was one of Trump’s “most trusted associates” during his 12 years at Deutsche Bank. outlines why that association is so troubling to me, particularly within the context of the Justice’s retirement.

    Anthony Kennedy got comfortable with Donald Trump picking his replacement. and explain how that happened, adding one startling detail: Kennedy’s son worked for Deutsche Bank during the time it was becoming Trump’s biggest lender.

    This does not happen every day. ⁦⁩ was one of 575 people arrested on Thursday protesting family separation in D.C. Nearly all of those demonstrating, and those arrested, were women. I can only imagine what we’ll see at Saturday’s protests.

    One year ago. I wanted to take a moment to express gratitude, and to recognize blessings. I may not have been able to seize so many incredible opportunities in the year since without the security of a buyout. A lot of people in similar situations are forced to leave journalism.

    I've been laid off by . I'll miss seeing my brilliant, talented colleagues, and I look forward to continuing my career elsewhere.

    Journalism isn’t the safest trade, but there is a class of folks that includes the who are invested, consciously in most cases, in endangering and threatening the lives of those in the press. I realize that this may prove futile, but today needs to be the end of that shit.

    I worry that we will still be posting this column in 20 years, hoping in vain that it will awaken those who merely shake their heads and pray after a mass shooting. Want to stop these murders? End violence against women. This is all preventable.

    The common thread emerges. I don’t know how many abusers need to move on to mass murder for folks to get it. The work to stop shootings goes well beyond assault weapons bans and stronger background checks. We also need to end rape culture and raise more feminists. Misogyny kills.

    Clarity from on the debate over civility in politics. “For the majority,” he argues, “the idea that civility might not be a panacea is purely abstract—there is little reasonable fear that the machinery of the state will be turned against them.”
