When Monica Duran, the Democratic majority leader in Colorado’s House of Representatives, was 19 years old, she escaped domestic abuse with her young son and did what many survivors try to do: She fled to a shelter and sought counseling. “For so long, you hear that you are worthless,” Duran told me.

(PALM BEACH, Fla.) — Donald Trump on Tuesday called his rally at New York’s Madison Square Garden, an event marked by crude and racist insults by several speakers, a “lovefest.” That’s a term the former president also has used to reference the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U. S. Capitol. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] Speaking to reporters and supporters at his Mar-a-Lago resort, Trump claimed “there’s never been an event so beautiful” as his Sunday night rally in his hometown of New York City. “The love in that room.
