We had layoffs and buyouts at The Hill yesterday and while I wasn’t impacted, I’m extending a hand to those who were.
I’ve been there. I know what it’s like.
So if you need to talk, if you need help with your resume, want to tap into my network of friends and colleagues, lean on me!
President Trump announces the U.S. has bombed Fordow, Natanz and Esfahan in Iran. He calls it successful and says U.S. planes are outside Iran airspace. “NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE,” he writes.
.@MayorofLA Karen Bass says the situation in her city today is nothing like the 1992 LA riots:
“There is zero comparison… I was at the epicenter when it was occurring. It was a citywide civil unrest. It was the nation's worst in terms of the most costly, the number of people died, the number of people arrested. There is no comparison. And unfortunately, that is what is being pushed, as though the city is in chaos, there's civil unrest everywhere. For most Angelenos, they're like, what city are they describing? They are definitely not describing Los Angeles.”
.@SenAmyKlobuchar on the horrific assassination in Minnesota and the rise in political violence in the US:
“[Politicians] are real people. And before you start ascribing motives or going after them online, maybe you should think about Melissa Hortman’s life... This is a person that did everything for the right reasons and regardless of political parties, just look at her face and think about that before you send out your next post, or before you say something. That isn't just about your views, people can have different views on things, but remember that our democracy is something to cherish and public service is a worthy thing to do.”
