Donald Trump refuses to give a straight answer to questions about pardoning Maxwell. Relieving her of her sentence would send a dangerous message to the rich and powerful that they are above even the most heinous of crimes. sign.moveon.org/petitions/ma...

Loretto & I spoke at Groton Public Library on CT’s Irish Famine history—on the same day funding was cut for The Famine Early Warning Systems Network. Ignoring history dooms us to repeat it. Hunger & displacement still plague the world. We must do better. @celticscribbler.bsky.social #famine

My thanks to Janet and all at the Groton Public Library and all the people who showed up at my talk, The Irish Famine Immigrants of Connecticut today. Great crowd, great questions, and great history ☘️🇮🇪 #IGHMF #irishfamine #Irishfamineimmigrantsofct #IrishHeritageMonth #TheGreatHunger
