It’s not hyperbole to say last week was one of America’s worst. On Wednesday, a deranged gunman stepped into a grocery store in Jeffersontown, Ky., and killed two African-Americans. Over several days last week, a far-right extremist mailed pipe bombs to some of the country’s most prominent progressives and Democratic politicians, from George Soros and Tom Steyer to former President Barack Obama, former Vice President Joe Biden, and Bill and Hillary Clinton. CNN’s New York studios on Columbus Circle had to be evacuated in the middle of a broadcast. And on Saturday, an anti-Semitic lunatic stepped into a Pittsburgh synagogue during Saturday services and killed 11 innocent people in cold blood.
After all this trauma, you have to ask yourself: What is happening?
