Here's the September 15, 2025 edition of the Left of Lansing "Monday Musing."
This week's "Monday Musing" examines how, despite all evidence to the contrary, MAGA Republicans are proclaiming right-wing propogandist Charlie Kirk's murder to be the work of left-wing violence. Yet, so far, it appears to be the opposite. In fact, the alleged murderer appears to have been even further right than Kirk, and other MAGA Republicans and influencers.
It's part of the authoritarian playbook of using tragedy to silence the opposition, which is strange considering how MAGA claims that Kirk supported debate and discourse.
