So proud of this! Spend a little time with the Globe today!

Great, and long overdue, news. Today's column:

Working on this has been so much fun!

In today’s Starting Point, Globe columnist @yabraham.bsky.social looks at how a one-of-a-kind story came together about a fifth grader who hated her teacher and later saved his life.

More than 40 years after Montana Miller left her fifth-grade nemesis behind, she gave him a gift that she hoped would save his life, writes Globe columnist @yabraham.bsky.social.

I got to spend time getting to know these two remarkable people, who allowed me to tell their incredible story.

I liked it!

It’s important to note that this is guy very much appears to be on-duty, which would make this a violation of the Hatch Act.

Governor Janet Mills challenged federal immigration officials to provide arrest warrants, real-time arrest numbers, and basic information about who is being detained in a sweeping enforcement operation in Maine.

Today's column. Mainers like Susan Collins because she brings home the bacon. What use is bacon when fascists are on the march?

Today's column: This is what this country is now. It has always been a place where cruelty and racism could flourish. But it’s been a long time since the bigotry was this open, and had the full weight of the federal government behind it.

Today’s column: Yay! Finally, we have a president who is looking out for our poor, put-upon oil tycoons!

Part 4 of my series on Latarsha Sanders and the insanity defense. After her arrest, Sanders and her family were reeling. And, in prison, Sanders' mental illness was named -- for the first time.

Great work by my colleagues! Big Trump admin Sinaloa cartel takedown turns out to have been very, very much not one. Same folks blowing up boats they claim are carrying narco traffickers...

Gee, I'm sure there is a lesson in here somewhere. BUT WHAT COULD IT BE?

When Silence Is the Only Logical Choice, Are We Really Free?

I’ve had two very formative interactions with William Young, the federal judge who authored today's remarkable decision in AAUP v Rubio. Nothing about his courageous decision surprises me. This guy is the real deal. 1/
