The murder of Charlie Kirk is part of a disturbing rise in political violence that threatens to hollow out our public life.
A free society relies on the premise that people can speak out without fear or humiliation.
No more political violence.
David Letterman says “God bless Taylor Swift and [Travis Kelce]" and tells off NFL fans upset by their romance: "This is such a lovely thing. Shut up!"
"[She's] a glowing bright light of goodness in the world...It’s good for the footballers. It’s good for Taylor Swift and it’s something positive and happy for the world."

I love the @latimes with all my heart. Leaving after nearly eight wonderful years was always going to be hard, but it hurts even more to go during such a painful moment in this great newspaper’s history. Rooting hard for The Times, and for the brilliant colleagues we’ve lost.
A couple of my recent pieces for @dailyyonder:
First there's my look at the 2018 documentary "Hillbilly" and my talk with co-director @abyork.

It was a pleasure speaking with you @keithroysdon! I appreciated the conversation very much and look forward to reading your piece in the @dailyyonder!
Just had a long interview with @abyork for a @dailyyonder piece about her documentary "Hillbilly." It's an excellent, thought-provoking film and I think the article resulting from our interview will be as well.
@AvashiaNeema please let’s talk about all things! I love your openness about your baby! We need more of that and more of everything you do. Hazel is an expert traveler. We started flying with her when she was two months old and she is a pro.
@cgoodwoman@cgoodwoman You are a force. Bless you for trying. There is a special place in hell for folks like @JimJusticeWV who sign these "Acts" into law. I say this as a college professor. Students these days get upset when they receive an A-. This is no good and beyond terrifying.
