A Louisville Courier Journal columnist used Sen. Mitch McConnell's hospitalization, and the recent death of Sen. Lindsey Graham, as the occasion to publish a blistering career retrospective he openly calls a "pre-obituary." Joseph Gerth, a columnist at McConnell's hometown paper, published the opinion piece on July 22 while the 84-year-old Kentucky Republican was reportedly recovering from a fall at his home that sent him to the hospital on June 14. Gerth made no pretense of neutrality: he called McConnell a "detestable figure" and framed the column as a deliberate attempt to criticize the senator while he is still alive, so that no one could accuse him of speaking ill of the dead.

Text messages presented at a Los Angeles preliminary hearing reveal that the 14-year-old girl singer D4vd is accused of murdering had become pregnant by him at age 13 and had an abortion, evidence prosecutors say traces a pattern of sexual abuse that ended in her stabbing death. Prosecutors on Friday laid out some of the most disturbing material yet in the case against David Burke, the 21-year-old indie-pop artist known as D4vd, who is charged with murder, sexual abuse of a child, and mutilation of a body.

President Trump took aim at the press, former President Biden and Secretary of Health and Human Service Robert F. Kennedy Jr. at the White House Correspondents’ Association’s (WHCA) dinner Friday evening.
