Sweetheart, everything is going to be alright.

In your little soul, already, you have dreams (and many opinions) about where you want to go, who you want to be, & what you want to do.

Go, darling, go! Do ... live.
You’ve got this.

Oh, the places you’ll go!

@jacobsoboroff Just saw your piece at the end of @NBCNightlyNews. My Lord…

This Southern Baptist, now United Methodist stands, in faith, with you and your community.

“When tragedy happens, we turn to our faith.”

@SamBrockNBC The vantage point is the Gold Coast neighborhood, at Lake Shore & Michigan Ave. Commercial airliners fly over, go out across the lake, do a u-turn and head back to land. O’Hare is ~15 miles from downtown.

The drones are very active (at night) in this area.

@SamBrockNBC Listening to your segment on drones. I’ve been amazed by the prevalence of these devices in downtown Chicago. They are very large, but are not commercial aircraft going out over the lake for final approach to O’Hare.

This is nightly.

“Caring has the gift of making the ordinary special.”

Every moment spent with this man was one to remember… because of the way he made you FEEL. The way he led. The way he listened. The way he competed. The way he cared.

Coach Brown, thank you for giving your all to this place and its people.

I’m grateful that some young person like me was lucky enough to learn from you and witness your greatness (even though to you, it’s just who you are).

Time to move the party to Bluesky.

[Arne Duncan @arneduncan]

Grieve, process and feel whatever you feel: anger, fear, loss, disbelief, disappointment, sadness, terror, etc.

But, please don’t just internalize your feelings, and keep them bottled up.
They want us separated and isolated- that creates hopelessness.

Stay connected to people!

Trump didn’t destroy the Republican Party- no one person has the power to do that.
He wasn’t even a Republican.

The scores of powerful Republican leaders- all of whom knew Trump was a threat & a fraud- who coddled him destroyed their own party.
They will live in infamy forever.

For her.
For all our daughters and sons.
For America. 🇺🇸

As the great Congressman John Lewis reminded us, democracy is not a state—it is an act.

Now is our time to act. And together, we will win: https://t.co/VbrfuqVy9P.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

If you’re still on the fence about voting in this election, think about what really matters – about the values we were taught, the kind of country we want to be, and how this is a moment when your vote really does count. 

Your vote could determine the fate of our republic – the world that our children and grandchildren will inherit. It’s an awesome responsibility. But what an extraordinary privilege it is to live in a democracy that gives each of us the opportunity to make our voices heard.
