By Star Columnist
Americans seem to be holding a terrible contest of their own devising: Who can say the foulest possible thing that violates all previously accepted social norms? Utah Republican Sen. Mike Lee won the coveted Very Next Day award by mocking the freshly murdered.
His X post 'This is what happens When Marxists (sic) don't get their way' referred to Minnesota State Sen. Melissa Hortman and her husband, both Democrats. The two were slaughtered in their own home allegedly by Christian extremist Vance Boelter choosing his first targets on a list of about 70. Lee included a photo of the alleged killer in an eerie latex mask.
