The day after the Washington Post did not endorse Kamala Harris for President? I ended my 45 year subscription there.

He or she is no fool who gives what she or he cannot keep to gain what she or he cannot lose.

I have two three inch binders of homegoing programs going back to 1977. Every once in awhile I will spend time looking at them and remembering friends and family who have gone on to glory.

It is not insurrection to disagree with the president.
It is not insurrection to call the president a soulless piece of shit.
It is not insurrection to say a damp dishcloth would be a less destructive occupant of the Oval Office.
It is not insurrection to demand a better president.

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.
