I am so proud to share the cover of America’s Founding Son, my first book! Many of you know I've been fascinated with our very first political maverick, John Quincy Adams, for a long time, and the story of his leadership feels needed right now.

So sad. Mark was the chronicler of the Presidency… if you wanted to know how many times GWB played golf, for example, or how many books Obama read aloud at the Easter Egg roll, you asked him. We never met but we had many exchanges on the Other Site and I’m glad he knew how much I valued his work.

In an era that looked as if it might be defined by an American man of depraved cruelty, corruption & shame, what a magnificent thing the Catholic Church has done. The elevation of an American man of goodness, grace, humility, mercy & faith to the Throne of St. Peter is moving & momentous for us all.

@adamweinstein.bsky.social As you point out, JQA successfully defended the Amistad captives before SCOTUS. As a post presidential member of Congress he also defended the first amendment right to petition the government against slavery. In doing so he was censored and twice narrowly avoided censure.

Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy.
Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media.
That’s why Trump is attacking education, science, museums, and the arts – to prevent us from learning.
It's Fascism 101.

The House GOP CR is NOT "clean."
It slashes funding for Army Corps projects by 44%—halting progress on port dredging & more.
It cuts medical research, specifically research to treat our servicemembers, by 50%.
And it reduces funding for lifesaving cancer research by $250M.
