Opinion  It’s time for Biden to strongly attack the White-grievance industry - "Now is the time for precise language. 'Forces' are not the problem; one political movement encased within the Republican Party is. 'Ultra-MAGA' ideas are not the problem; Republicans spouting anti-American ideas that threaten functional democracy are. 

"It’s not the plague of 'polarization' or 'distrust,' some sort of floating miasma, that has darkened our society. Bluntly put, we are in deep trouble because a major party rationalizes both intense selfishness — the refusal to undertake even minor inconveniences such as mask-wearing or gun background checks for others’ protection — and deprivation of others’ rights (to vote, to make intimate decisions about reproduction, to be treated with respect)."

The Uvalde shooting ‘stirred something’ in him. So he gave up his gun.

Opinion  Dear grads: This is how to write a real thank-you note
