Comment on A Conversation with Simon Rosenberg

A push to oust Colorado GOP Chair Dave Williams has led to the formal censure of the petition’s circulator — the Jefferson County party chair — and an apparent nullification of the effort by her own executive committee. Nancy Pallozzi started the petition last week. It lists several concerns with Williams’ leadership, including the party breaking neutrality during this year’s Colorado presidential primary when it backed former President Donald Trump.

Last Friday, my colleague Stephanie Mencimer had the distinct honor—or misfortune—of witnessing Rudy Giuliani’s apparent attempt to convince the Christian right to help him amid his dire financial troubles. That effort saw Giuliani airing crude, conspiratorial rhetoric before the faithful which at one point, saw Giuliani calling Fani Willis, the Fulton County district attorney in Donald Trump’s Georgia case, a “ho.” Now Willis is responding, condemning the conservative critics who have relentlessly targeted her since she took on Trump’s Georgia election interference case.

WASHINGTON — The U. S. Supreme Court has struck down a ban on bump stocks, the gun accessory used in the deadliest shooting in modern American history — a Las Vegas massacre that killed 60 people and injured hundreds more. The court’s conservative majority said Friday that then-President Donald Trump’s administration overstepped its authority with the 2019 ban on the firearm attachment, which allows semiautomatic weapons to fire like machine guns. Here’s what to know about the case: What are bump stocks? Bump stocks are accessories that replace a rifle’s stock, the part that gets pressed against the shooter’s shoulder.

In 2017, it took a shooter 10 minutes to spray more than 1,000 rounds into a crowd watching a Las Vegas concert. He murdered 58 people and injured 500 more in America’s deadliest mass shooting. He did this with a bump stock, an accessory that, for all intents and purposes, transforms semi-automatic rifles into machine guns.

The ones who aren’t aborted, one assumes.
