A LOT of people have asked me why I left TV news at the height of my career. I wasn’t ready to share all of the details... until now. Of all the stories I’ve told in my life, this is the most difficult one. I hope it helps others who are struggling.

A young girl didn’t want to slaughter the goat she raised for 4H. The state senator who bought the goat at auction agreed to let it live out its days eating weeds. But sheriff’s deputies drove 500 miles to kill the goat and teach a 9-year-old a lesson.

It’s a shameful day for America as former President @realDonaldTrump was indicted by a Manhattan grand jury. The Democrats have weaponized the legal system for their political gain while ignoring the current Administration’s faults and deficiencies. There’s only One who can save this country, and that is God and God alone. Why should He even hear our prayers when we have turned our back on Him? But I’m going to keep praying that God will intervene and save this nation so we will continue to be that beacon of hope for this very dark world.
While I didn’t contribute to Alvin Bragg’s campaign, I have supported many other reform-minded prosecutors. Anyone who wants to know why should read this article I wrote in @WSJ. https://t.co/GBOwlrCkO9
For those who don’t already understand, “Soros-backed District Attorney,” which every Right Wing media outlet is saying repeatedly, is just a thinly-veiled reference to antisemitic conspiracy theories that lie at the heart of white supremacist paranoia.
Want to know how far the Republican Party has drifted on its interpretation the 2nd Amendment? Here's what Republican Supreme Court Justice Warren Burger-appointed by President Nixon-had to say about the NRA:
"The Gun Lobby’s interpretation of the Second Amendment is one of the greatest pieces of fraud, I repeat the word fraud, on the American People by special interest groups that I have ever seen in my lifetime. The real purpose of the Second Amendment was to ensure that state armies – the militia – would be maintained for the defense of the state. The very language of the Second Amendment refutes any argument that it was intended to guarantee every citizen an unfettered right to any kind of weapon he or she desires."
Make sure everyone sees this.
Question: There was another terrible school shooting yesterday.. Is there anything Congress should be doing?

Stunning story by @peterbakernyt about powerful Texas politicians who went to the Middle East in 1980 on a secret mission orchestrated by one of them: to get Iran to hold onto US hostages to help swing election to Reagan, who was running against Carter. https://t.co/v3cHLvHd1w

The American dream is not possible until Black Americans can live without the threat of police brutality.
Tyre Nichols deserved his American dream. Those responsible for his death must be held to account – and we must change policing to protect our communities without fear.
Nicholas Winton helped 669 Jewish children escape the Nazis. His efforts went unrecognized for 50 years. Then in 1988, while sitting as a member of a TV audience, he suddenly found himself surrounded by the kids he’d rescued, now adults.
I like to remember this every Jan 27th.
