     ny times logoNew York Times, White Supremacy Is ‘Poison,’ Biden Says in Emotional Speech in Buffalo, Zolan Kanno-Youngs and Peter Baker, May 18, 2022 (print ed.). In his visit to a largely Black community where a mass shooting left 10 dead, President Biden criticized those who use hate speech for political gain. Mr. Biden shared the stories of each victim and called for stricter gun control, denouncing the attack as racist terrorism. Here’s the latest.

    President Biden called on Tuesday for Americans to “take on the haters” and “reject the lie” of racial replacement that reportedly animated a white man to gun down Black shoppers on Saturday in the latest eruption of violence targeting people of color in the United States.“What happened here is simple and straightforward: Terrorism. Terrorism. Domestic terrorism,” Mr. Biden told mourners in this city in upstate New York. “Violence inflicted in the service of hate and the vicious thirst for power that defines one group of people being inherently inferior to any other group, a hate that through the media and politics, the internet, has radicalized angry, alienated, lost and isolated individuals into falsely believing that they will be replaced.”

    This so-called replacement theory, the notion that an elite cabal of liberals is plotting to substitute immigrants or other people of color for white Americans, has become an increasingly common talking point on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show and among some Republican leaders. While Mr. Biden did not specify names, he accused certain politicians and pundits of deliberately promoting the conspiracy theory and stoking racial animus out of a cynical desire to score political points and make money.

    washington post logoWashington Post, Victories by Mastriano, Budd show potency of Trump’s false stolen election claims in GOP, Annie Linskey and David Weigel, May 18, 2022. Incomplete results showed that Trump’s influence over the movement he started was uneven, winning some but not all the races where he backed a candidate; Tuesday’s primaries provided the biggest test to date of the effect of Donald Trump and his far-right movement on the midterm elections.

    Republican candidates who sought to overturn the 2020 election won statewide primaries in Pennsylvania and North Carolina on Tuesday, reflecting the lingering influence in the GOP of former president Donald Trump’s false claims that the vote was rigged against him.
