For an upcoming reporting trip, does anyone have connections in Helsinki? I’m looking to talk to young adults (20s/30s) about whether or not they want children and why. Please reach out if you have contacts. Thanks!

DC-area friends: come see me in conversation with @hollybfletcher.bsky.social this Thursday evening!

First time back in awhile. Lots going on but I’m blessed with good veins and a strong stomach, so I try to give when I can. #giveblood @RedCross (Also my arm looks giant for some reason but I think it’s the angle? lol)

It is so convenient that as I’m hitting middle age, comfy jeans, ugly shoes, generally dumpy outfit pairings, and even Trader Joe’s tote bags are now fashionable

Thanks @tamarakeithnpr.bsky.social and @sarahmccammon.bsky.social for featuring my timestamp on the NPR Politics Podcast! Check out my feed for photos of #MichiganErratics (aka glacial rocks abandoned in the #GreatLakes when the Laurentide #icesheet melted) 🧊🪨🧐

As recently as the 1990s, women in South America and the Caribbean had 3-4 children on average. Today, as @brianmannadk reports, women in Chile are having just over 1 per child: www.npr.org/2025/08/03/n...

“The public media system has always relied on members of the public who see its value and want to keep it alive, and that has never been truer.” - @sarahmccammon.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/sarahmcc...

LISTEN: Will Republicans or Democrats control the U.S. House after the 2026 midterm election? My @npr.org colleagues @sarahmccammon.bsky.social, Domenico Montanaro and I talk about why re-redistricting in Texas and other states could determine the answer

Season 2 of #ShinyHappyPeople is out on @PrimeVideo @AmazonMGMStudios - and if you watch, you may even see someone you know! ;)

Breaking News: NPR's editor in chief, Edith Chapin, will leave the organization later this year, according to two people with knowledge of her decision. The move comes as the outlet navigates the loss of its federal funding.

People often ask me about the profile/beliefs of the #exvangelical. Until now, much of what I could say has been anecdotal or based on broader data looking at a variety of religious/political groups. Which is why it’s so exciting that @PRRI has a deep dive on Exvangelicals: prri.org/spotlight/ex...

Today, I’m thinking about the local public media journalists who get up in the middle of the night to cover mass shootings and hurricanes - often arriving on the scene long before we, the fortunate and far-better-compensated national hosts and correspondents, can even board a flight.

Was such a joy talking tariffs with @sarahmccammon.bsky.social today on Morning Edition @npr.org My take: Effects will be felt on everything everywhere... but not all at once www.npr.org/2025/07/16/n...

This piece by @brianmannadk.bsky.social and @sarahmccammon.bsky.social is so bloody good 🤯🤯🤯 www.npr.org/2025/07/07/n...

Far more families are choosing to have fewer — or no — children. Many countries, including the U.S., now face a rapidly aging population that could begin to shrink.

My NPR colleague Brian Mann and I have spent months talking to women, couples, and experts for a project exploring the reasons so many people around the world are having fewer babies, and what it could mean: www.npr.org/2025/07/07/n...

My latest for @npr.org with @sarahmccammon.bsky.social . The start of a new collaboration. ✨️ Women are having far fewer babies. Here's why that matters www.npr.org/2025/07/07/n...

Just finished listening to “The Exvangelicals” by @sarahmccammon.bsky.social. The fear about my soul, the shame I felt about my body, and later the frustration with family who seem to support politics that don’t align with biblical teachings were all very relatable.

Texts I send my children 🤦‍♀️

Interested in talking with @sarahmccammon.bsky.social and myself for a project for @npr.org? ✔️🙏

The church said it's terminating a decades-long partnership with the federal government to help refugees arriving in the U.S., citing moral opposition to resettling white Afrikaners from South Africa.

filling time on air until the new pope is announced is known as "pontiffication"

For a new NPR project I'm launching with @sarahmccammon.bsky.social we need your help. Are you asking questions about when (or if) you want to have children? We want to hear from women, men, couples. Initial responses private. Please share your thoughts and ideas. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

The pope was a strong advocate for the poor and the environment and a towering figure on the world stage, addressing not just Catholics but the men and women of our time.

How empathy came to be seen as a weakness in conservative circles. www.npr.org/2025/03/22/n... @sarahmccammon.bsky.social

Good morning! Pleased to be sitting in for Scott Simon this morning on Weekend Edition on @npr!

You need to listen to this piece by @sarahmccammon.bsky.social … How some people think boggles the mind! www.npr.org/2025/03/22/n...

So excited for my friend @byjeffchu.com, whose lovely new book on growth - both spiritual and horticultural- is out next week. My hard copy showed up a little bit early! 💕 www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/729761...

Excited to be in Tucson for this weekend’s Book Festival - but first hitting one of my favorite spots, the DeGrazia gallery.

In June 2020, the phrase "Black Lives Matter" had been painted on the pavement by the city in uppercase, yellow letters, covering two blocks on 16th Street, about a quarter mile from the White House.

This is so profoundly strange from @slotkin.senate.gov. The Harris campaign ran one of the most aggressive outreach efforts to moderates, independents, and soft Republicans in recent memory!

Business owners across the country worry they will also suffer the impact from President Trump's tariffs on imports from Mexico, Canada and China.

The Trump administration is tapping several other agencies to help deport and arrest those without legal status — a novel step that is prompting some pushback.

The Grammy Award-winning artist and educator had shared an ALS diagnosis in 2022. She was best known for ballads such as "Killing Me Softly With His Song" and "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face."

Reading The Exvangelicals by @sarahmccammon.bsky.social, and the section on the misinformation and evangelicals is hitting hard right now. I feel like folks who grew up in those circles have been warning about the repercussions for years, and now we’re all living them.
