#Haiku: Fairy Tales – The Broken Trees The trees weep; Crying for their future Unseen roots tentacling Our hearts
Well, when you put it that way … 🤔
Well, when you put it that way … 🤔
I enjoyed the MOST fabulous Uber ride yesterday. I’m traveling in a red state, and my driver identified himself as a registered Republican. A rare find: a moderate Republican. His name is Carl, and he said there is NO WAY he would ever vote for Trump. Beyond Trump’s criminality,…
@nateraymond @WSJ The genius of our Constitutional system of government—as nearly every eighth grader knows—is shared power. Checks and balances prevent the tyranny of one person or one branch of government. Shared power is the heart of American system of government. If Justice Alito is unable…
Today after Mitch McConnell had what seemed like some sort of medical incident, President Biden called him to make sure he was doing well. Biden and McConnell are from opposite ends of the political spectrum. They have been going at each other politically for decades. But today…

It's baffling to me that school meals aren't free. Kids raising money to pay off "lunch debt"! How could you possibly think that is OK? Every child should receive free healthy meals from their school. I will gladly pay my taxes to make that happen. There is no better investment.
Happy Thursday and thank you @AliciaMenendez and @MichaelSteele for expertly helming @DeadlineWH this week!
There were just 4 other journalists in the whole cavernous room that night: @VTConfidential @RussellBlairCT @chrispkeating and @zach_murdock. Within 6 months, the newsroom would be shuttered for good. (And less than 2 years later, the presses would be dismantled for scrap.)
There’s nothing like the energy of a newsroom on election night. The August 2020 primary was the last time I worked in the Courant newsroom and the place was already a ghost town: the TVs were dark because the cable had been turn off…
Smiling and smirking in front of the judge while your guilty verdict is being read strikes me as an effective way of increasing your sentence.

THREAD: Today is a very sad day at The Hartford Courant: Six amazing journalists are leaving (five of them are taking buyouts.) And while I am so happy for them personally as they move on to new adventures, their departures will leave a major gap.
the sacrifice those men and women made for the sake of power and Trump. Your whitewash of January 6th guarantees America years of political violence.

1/ Stick with this thread to the end. Friday in Hartford a young woman named Solmary Cruz nervously handed me a slip of paper with a neatly written list of changes she wants. "You promise you're going to read it?" she asked in a weak but purposeful voice.

The payroll tax that funds Social Security does not apply to income above $160,000. So Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk, the richest men on Earth, contribute just as much as your neighborhood dentist. I’m fighting to expand Social Security by getting the wealthy to pay their fair share.

Granma was a stoic; that’s why She haunts us; Threatens God, maligning Angels; for the child who died Of scarlet fever without Calling her name; For the collie dog run over And the wedding tulips blighted. Mom says, “Poor Gran She's got Too much grief to catch up on.”
This crowded world could not make do without your life; Summoned up, you surged you split the crust Shocked, I shuddered in my sheaves You uncored We unmerged. Your cell became a soul unsheathed. you blinkered on the world wondered at the fuss: We are you You are not us.
As Reagan said: “These visitors…do not come as white or black…they are not Jews or Christians; conservatives or liberals; or Democrats or Republicans. They are Americans awed by what has gone before, proud of what for them is still … a shining city on a hill.”
