Description

Republicans have long railed against “cancel culture” and blamed the left for seeking to curb free speech. Now, they are catching criticism on the same grounds in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination – and potentially going further by having government officials involved.
Also: today’s stories, including how Charlie Kirk’s allies are vowing to continue his political legacy, how some Syrians are taking steps to build a democratic legislature, and our review of “Dark Renaissance: The Dangerous Times and Fatal Genius of Shakespeare’s Greatest Rival," by Stephen Greenblatt.
Join the Monitor's Ira Porter for today's news.
