MSNBC· 2025-09-15 17:41
The murder of Charlie Kirk is just the latest example of modern American political violence that spans decades. The 1960s, of course, were one of the most turbulent decades in US history, marked with political unrest and over civil rights issues and anti-war movements. It also saw several high-profile assassinations with the murders of Megar Evans, President John F.Kennedy, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr. ., and Robert F. Kennedy.All in a span of just 5 years.

Joe: We have to stand shoulder to shoulder and condemn violence no matter where it happens
MSNBC· 2025-09-15 11:12
In a sense, the question must be is why is Spencer Cox's voice so unique. Here we are in this moment in the country and we have become so used to so much division that we almost expect more of that division from our political leaders on either side. And so to have listening to Spencer Cox yesterday on the Sunday shows, what struck me is how he was prepared to be bold.He didn't mince his words when it came to social media, describing it as a cancer, describing uh the algorithms that drive us to division as e ...

Joining me right now, we have New York Times White House correspondent Luke Broadwater. We also have investigative profiler Casey Jordan. So, thank you both for being here.Casey, we heard the Utah governor say the suspect isn't cooperating. Would there be an expectation of cooperation in situations like this.

And what's the focus then of the investigation if he's not helping.Well, if you were accused of assass ...
Pete Buttigieg says social media is 'clearly part of the problem' around political violence
NBC News· 2025-09-14 17:19
You heard Governor Cox refer to social media as a cancer and the question I think becomes what to do about it. Do you agree with that assessment. Is social media actually a cancer right now.Mr. . Secretary, >> social media is clearly part of the problem in a big way and it speaks to something that's even bigger than the political polarization of this moment. Although I think the internet has played a role, but it's more than that.It's what is it doing to our brains. Look, every time there's one of these kil ...
