HOW IT’S GOING:

MSNBC IS GARBAGE, but the Insta-Wife has been watching the Charlie Kirk coverage on NBC and says it’s been terrific, balanced, serious, and constructive. About 3/4 guests are conservative, nobody is suggesting he deserved it, everyone is worried for the state of the country. Good.

WE DON’T KNOW MUCH YET, BUT WHAT WE KNOW SEEMS BAD:

UPDATE: We do know that MSNBC is garbage, though. After These Remarks About Charlie Kirk Getting Shot, MSNBC Can Go to Hell.

CHANGE: iPhone 17 Air is real—here’s what’s new in Apple’s extra-thin handset: It’s not revolutionary, but it’s hypertargeted at one type of customer. ” The 6.5-inch iPhone 17 Air combines the CPU and GPU of an iPhone Pro with the camera system of a regular iPhone, all in an extra-thin design (5.6 mm), with a treated titanium frame that is likely to appeal to style-conscious users and some business consumers.” I want a better camera, not a worse camera.

TRUE. WE NEED A FEDERAL CIVIL RIGHTS LAW PROTECTING PEOPLE WHO DEFEND THEMSELVES AND OTHERS FROM MALICIOUS PROSECUTION.

YES:

Although the “professional black people” on CNN, etc. are, frankly, execrable on this stuff, they’re just modern day minstrels playing up to a woke white audience. Their views don’t reflect those of actual black communities, who all evidence suggests support Trump’s effort to increase policing. And they should, since they will be the chief beneficiaries. Everyone, black, white, or whatever, deserves public spaces that are clean and safe, and the vast majority want those. The loser journalist/pundit class (but I repeat myself) has distorted discussion on this issue for pretty much my whole lifetime and needs to sit down and shut up.

Democrats would like nothing better than to turn this into a broad-brush black vs. white issue, but it’s really an issue on which the multiracial working-class coalition that is now the GOP has every reason to stand united against the predators and grifters on the left.

DON SURBER: DEI JUDGES SUCK.
