Skimm'd while making a midterms checklist

QUOTE O= THE DAY

"Worth it" – Elon Musk on his tweet that cost him and Tesla a casual $40=million.

HATE IN AMERICA

The Story

The country is reeling from a week of divisive violence.

What's going on?

Over the weekend, a gunman opened fire during a morning service at a synagogue i= Pittsburgh. 11 people died and six others were injured, including four po=ice officers. It's believed to be the deadliest attack on the Jewish commu=ity in US history.

Who's behind this?

The alleg=d gunman has a history of posting anti-Semitic things on social media.=And apparently yelled "all Jews must die" while shooting. He had a rifle a=d handguns with him. But he had a license to carry and reportedly legally =wned them.

What are people saying?

Pittsburgh's mayor called it the "darkest day" in the city's history, but=said that "hatred will never win out." President Trump called it "an anti-Semitic attack at its worst."=/a>

What else happened?

You also saw the headlines from last week about big-name Dems and Trump critics =etting suspicious packages in the mail. They contained pipe bombs �=93 but luckily authorities intercepted them before they exploded. On Frida=, authorities arrested and cha=ged a Florida man who they think is responsible. Investigators are sti=l looking into his motive, but he's a big Trump supporter and far-right co=spiracy theorist. Now he faces charges like threats against former preside=ts and mailing explosives.

Anything else?

Last week, there was also a shooting in Jeffersontown= Kentucky. A white man shot an= killed two black people at a grocery store. Police say he first tried to enter a mostly-black =hurch, but couldn't get into the building. Authorities are looking into wh=ther it was a hate crime.

The political divide is growing. And hate is turning =nto violence. Enough is enough.

REPEAT AFTER ME...

What people are talking about...

Indonesia=/a>. Earlier today, a passenger plane carrying 189 people from the capital=Jakarta to an island off the coast of Sumatra crashed. Minutes after takeo=f, the plane requested to return to the airport. It had been cleared to re=urn before it lost contact. It's still unclear if there are survivors or w=at caused the crash.

What to say when you get a new boss...

There's a new sheriff in town. Yesterday, right-wing =andidate Jair Bolsonaro won

What to say when someone swears in a meeting...

Blasphemy, I say. Over the weekend, Ireland voted to =ix an ancient rule that banned=blasphemy. This is the most recent example of the country moving away =rom its conservative, religious roots. It also re-elected its president. Meanwhile, Sri Lanka is having some issues. The prez an= prime minister duo that came into power in 2015 promised to end corruptio= and human rights abuses. Turns out it's more like drama and more drama. T=e prez booted his PM – which people are calling unconstitutional. =t's led to political chaos and violence.

What to say to your friend who stayed up to watch all 18 innings in Game 3...

It was all worth it. Last night, the Boston Red Sox <= href="https://link.theskimm.com/click/14906025.286471/aHR0cHM6Ly9za2ltb=RoLmlzLzJxZ3NRajc/5bae7b412ddf9c633bb801b8B187b9980" target="_blank" sty=e="color:#00b2a9;text-decoration:none;">won the World Series against=the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 5. It's their fourth championship win in 1= seasons. Time to pahty.

What to say when you're feeling Monday blues…

Hasan Min=aj to the rescue.
