[YouTube] This time the Angle is about how political violence has become mainstreamed in American youth today.
Laura starts with a picture of Luigi Maglione, and an odd photo of an unidentified guy who killed someone.
A clip is played of Taylor Lorenz [has been a journalist for many left wing publications, like the Times, the Post, the Beast, and apparently Substack.] She’s a 40 year old immunocompromised vegan who’s had many recent online harassment attacks including threats of death and violent rape, and has had her share of problems with stalkers and "swatters" as well.
By an act of the Lord, it seems, she has been engaged now for 10 years to Christopher Mims, an author and a technology columnist for the Wall Street Journal. (I wonder if this might be something like the Stalwell situation.) Laura continues with how Taylor has bragged about murderers, like those displayed on the screen, of how cool they are, including the CEO healthcare murderer. "Why he’s a famous handsome young revolutionary, smart, and the sort of guy that any girl would want to become involved with." In a clip she laughs off the healthcare murder as "this is America, as if we don’t lionize murderers, as if we don’t give then Netflix shows," and is glad that some journalists are now finally "standing up and speaking out about the anger that we all feel."
Laura tosses in a clip [The Daily Show/Comedy Central 12/11/24] of a comedian who says that the recent google search for "conjugal visit" is now trending. Laura appreciates that we now know more about the guy who recently threatened Trump, rather than, for example Thomas Crooks. See:

The rest of the show follows in the same vein, including the Tesla attacks (one perpetrator is now a folk hero), the break-in of Governor Shapiro [PA]’s residence where the place was torched, and Trump comes in to suggest the perpetrator is just a whack job, etc. I’m already 7 minutes into the program I haven’t reviewed anything beyond this point but I don’t really care to and this is enough.
