Um, and people attribute motives to them that they assume because of the way they dress or because of what music they listen to or that, that sort of thing. Uh, so in this case, you know, all we have are, are some superficial indicia, right? We, uh,

we see a person who is associated with a lot of traditionally left-leaning causes targeting a democratic governor who, you know, maybe stands out on one or two particular issues as, um, you know, as being something that kind of traditional liberals or socialists might not be happy about. But we can't assume that that's the reason.

Frankly, on the foreclosure front, as somebody who's covered foreclosure courts, I'm a little surprised there hasn't been more violence of this kind dating back to the mid-2000s because I've seen how enraged people are by being thrown out of their homes. a significant percentage of those people are tossed out kind of unfairly. You know, we don't know.

But but I think, you know, Walter's right to talk about the lionization of Luigi and how we're in this space now where a big segment of the media is kind of intellectualizing violence as a logical response to things. And that is very scary.

I mean, there's so many things that are crazy about this that one doesn't even know where to start. Walter and I, just a couple of weeks ago, we did a segment on Flannery O'Connor's A Good Man is Hard to Find because it was the 100th anniversary of her birth. And here's Taylor Lorenz, who is probably the most anti-literate person in media. Making a reference to a good man is hard to find.

She's someone who, if you handed her a hardcover book, would be tempted to bite it, I think. She's probably never read anything in her life. And I think if she did know that story, she misunderstood the point of it, clearly. But this idea of Luigi Mangione as a morally good man. I, I just, I don't know how that goes over and how, what, what CNN is thinking, putting that on the air. It's crazy.
