Trump revokes Secret Service detail for Harris that Biden had extended

An American Pope. From my hometown of Chicago. Wow. My very Catholic mother is smiling down right now.

White smoke!

Big, big, big loss for WaPo. Not to mention Eugene Robinson is one of the nicest guys in the biz.

R.I.P., sir…

Excited that journalism students from my alma mater —@UofIllinois—dropped by Tiny Desk today!

Congrats to my @npr.org colleague and friend @edeggans.bsky.social. He’s going to slay it at Washington and Lee!

My latest collaboration: crumbling schools in rural Alaska. I teamed up with ProPublica’s @MichaelGrabell to edit the investigation, which was well reported by NPR member station reporter @EmilySchwing at KYUK.

No one—and I mean no one—can belt out a song better than Cynthia Erivo.

Whew…

Timothy Curran, Washington Post editor, dies at 57. He was a lovely colleague…

Whose idea was it to put the Kevin Hart interview on 60 Minutes tonight up against the Super Bowl? I’m getting whiplash…

For only the second time, two Black quarterbacks will face off on the NFL’s biggest stage. But NFL diversity is still a work in progress, writes @bymikejonessports.bsky.social. More ⤵️ www.nytimes.com/athletic/612...

Our history…so much to celebrate.

It may be drop-top weather somewhere, but not in DC. It’s 32. 👀

My view this morning from a friend’s balcony. It definitely beats the cold and snow of DC!

I turned my back for 30 minutes and this happened! Gotta love DC and Mother Nature.

My Fighting Illini defeated SC in the Citrus Bowl! I’m one proud alum! I-L-L…

Former President Jimmy Carter's state funeral services will span six days, three cities and multiple places of significance from his life.

I remember him coming to WaPo to discuss his book, which he was gracious enough to sign for me. R.I.P., sir.

A heck of a life… Jimmy Carter, 39th president and Nobel Peace Prize winner, dies at 100, his son says

Beyoncé just did her thing at halftime! Wow.

Santa knows me well!

Bet I won’t get two of these! Thanks, Santa. Can’t wait to take it to NJ and let it rip. Lol

Getting ready for Christmas Eve dinner with friends…

The kid in me comes out this time of year. Will pop this in over the weekend!

Such a fascinating story… www.nytimes.com/2024/12/12/w...

Smokey Robinson still has that silky smooth voice.

Nikki Giovanni, one of the best poets around. R.I.P… www.npr.org/2024/12/09/n...

It was a good night…

Dave Koz and Jonathan Butler never disappoint!

Looking forward to the gala this weekend! wabjdc.org/cheryl-w-tho...

On Sunday, President Joe Biden issued a full and unconditional pardon to his son Hunter, who was convicted of gun-related charges and pleaded guilty in a tax case. Here’s a look at the recent history of presidential pardons granted to family members:

When Richard III's skeleton was found under a parking lot in England in 2012, it was an exciting enough discovery for the general public, but a game-changer for Yvonne Morley-Chisholm.

Thanksgiving and my beloved Chicago Bears. It doesn’t get much better than that.

Wishing my Bluesky peeps a Happy Thanksgiving!

Glad I didn’t run into one when I was there last summer!

President Biden on Tuesday announced a cease-fire deal to stop the fighting between Israel and the Lebanese armed group Hezbollah, raising hope that it could bring a lasting end to the deadliest war in Lebanon in decades. nyti.ms/3ZqjaEm

Little chatter about this when I was visiting last month.

First, a rare November thunderstorm in DC a couple of days ago, now this! What is going on?

Here I am on Bluesky sharing what I wrote about Bluesky. It's easy to be a wonderful social network before the numbers get big, the VCs get hungry and the crowds get mean. I asked CEO Graber: Can Bluesky stay this way and become what all of us want? www.wired.com/story/plaint...

Yasss, it’s finally Friday! Been a long week. Really long.

Well, it’s never dull on Capitol Hill.

A storm just rolled into DC—complete with thunder and lightening. So odd for this time of year.

Happy to be one of the newest Bluesky members from X. I do investigative journalism for NPR, so hit me up with any tips—or just to chat.

So proud of my dear friend from college. www.chicagobears.com/news/bears-a...
