The same republicans who called gen z “coddled” and “lazy” are now calling them unremitting and dangerous.

Which one is it?

KAITLAN COLLINS: So you agree that people who break in and vandalize a building should be prosecuted?

JD VANCE: Yes

COLLINS: Ok, I'm just checking, because you helped raise money for people who did so on January 6

This is a very opinionated monologue for a straight news anchor at CNN, replete with a comparison between the campus protests and 'the 1930s in Europe'

This is more important than a window at Columbia.

Something went wrong at CNN with this. It's not factual enough to be news, or coherent enough to work as an opinion column. A producer should have argued her out of it.

The longest occupation of a federal building was by Disabled people in 1977. It forced the Carter administration to put regulations around #504, which cleared the path for the #ADA . Newsrooms in general have 0 concept of disability history so opinions are formed on feelings

If our justice system can’t hold men like Donald Trump and Harvey Weinstein accountable, maybe it’s time to change it.
