Unreal. The White House can praise a Brown victim, but not Rob Reiner [View all]

Ella Cook, a second-year student from Alabama, was “an incredible, grounded, faithful, bright light”, according to the Cathedral Church of the Advent, Birmingham, which paid tribute to her at a service on Sunday.

Cook was vice-president of Brown’s chapter of College Republicans of America, the group said. Karoline Leavitt, the White House press secretary, also posted condolences to X, saying in part: “There are no words. Thinking of her family and friends, especially her parents.”

No words about the other victim, an Uzbek student, or gun control, for that matter.
