The timing of the Annapolis shooting not a surprise. As the RR & Wray hearing was wrapping up on CSPAN3 I flipped thru the other news stations to see what they were covering. MSNBC and CNN were having a hard time finding an active news item to focus on…it was either the hearing and house floor vote, Melania in Arizona or Trump touting the new Foxconn plant (some doing the minimal, showing footage w/o sound as they put their own narrative out there).

At one point MSNBC was giving us a lesson on what democratic socialism is and how the idea is not really all that foreign to this country, ie Medicare. This served as an intro to their in-studio interview with Ocasio-Cortez. Would like to know what the collective viewers reaction was.
