The Gist - Brendan Nyhan: Measuring Political Violence Without Panic

Dartmouth's Brendan Nyhan explains why headline-grabbing polls inflate support for "partisan violence" and how careful survey design finds under 10% backing for felony-level force, far less than in many democracies. He traces how elite cues shape perceived threats and warns against pretextual crackdowns. Also: a look at Jimmy Kimmel's removal and a wave of misreads of motives that were actually incidental to the Trump administration's crackdown on those it defines as the left.

1A - The News Roundup For September 9, 2025

In a blow to free speech, TV host Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show was suspended from ABC’s lineup after the comedian made jokes about President Donald Trump’s relationship with the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

The 22-year-old suspect in Kirk’s killing was charged on  Tuesday in Utah County with aggravated murder. The state is seeking the death penalty.

This week the president announced the National Guard will be deployed to Memphis, Tennessee.

Meanwhile, a United Nations commission concluded that Israel is committing a genocide in Gaza against the Palestinian people.

The UK rolled out the red carpet for President Trump during his visit with the royal family and Prime Minister Keir Starmer. In a press conference at the conclusion of the trip Trump said the two governments were making ties “closer than ever before.”

Following recent Russian drone incursions in its own airspace, Poland suggests the European Union should set up a no-fly zone over Ukraine.

Newshour - More than 70 dead in Sudan strike

Sudan's military rulers have condemned a drone strike on a mosque in El Fasher city in Darfur that it says killed more than 70 people and blamed the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces for the attack. The leaders said targeting the people who were performing dawn prayers is a crime that shames humanity. The RSF has been fighting to take over the city from the army, as the civil war in Sudan rages. Newshour hears from a doctor who went to the mosque in the aftermath of the attack.

Also in the programme: the Taliban removes books written by women from universities; and Estonia requests urgent NATO consultations over a violation of its airspace by Russian jets. (Photo: Image of El Fasher. Credit: Maxar Technologies)

Consider This from NPR - Trump used the military to target a Venezuelan vessel. Is it legal?

A 30 second video clip shows a boat bobbing in the water.

Then, a fireball and a huge plume of smoke.

President Trump posted the footage on social media this week, saying he ordered the U-S military to attack what Trump called “narcoterrorists from Venezuela.”

It’s at least the second time this month that President Trump has ordered this sort of a deadly strike on a boat that he claims carried illegal drugs.

It's an example of the new ways Trump is deploying military force.  The President has used the National Guard in American cities.

Do the strikes on Venezuelan vessels signal a new way of using the military abroad, and is it legal?
