Walter Jacobson’s Perspective 2-6-25: What we need right now is the politicians, newspapers and TV to shut up
Update: 2025-02-06
Description
The public and often obscene arguments over President Trump’s decisions to fire FBI agents and prosecutors in the Department of Justice are being heard all around, everywhere, along with the expensive and damaging tariffs he says he’s planning against Mexico and Canada. And also his threatening speeches about our most committed allies around the world. While at the same time, blasting away about many other things, like, for example, his determination to have in his Presidential Cabinet Robert Kennedy Jr., a son of the once US Attorney General Robert Kennedy and a nephew of the once president John Kennedy. Much of what President Trump’s been saying is causing concern about what he may say or do next. What I’m hearing in City Hall and in Chicago neighborhoods all around, everywhere is talk, talk, talk that what’s possible next is another attempted assassination of Donald Trump by a political dissident or by who knows who and for what reason. For whatever reason, an attempted assassination is possible because it’s always possible. Which is why what we need right now is the noisy politicians in Congress and the White House, and the screaming headlines in the newspapers, and the talking heads on TV, to shut up.
