Who am I?
Most recently, I was digital lead for CBS Owned CWs WUPA/WTOG/KSTW (ATL/TPA/SEA) and helped launch the Car Chase TV channel. Before that I was lead writer for The Streamable, and spent over 15 years as digital EP at Tegna’s WXIA in Atlanta with bylines from USA Today & AP while there.

NewYork’s last socialist mayor did pretty well for himself: Fiorello LaGuardia - www.cityandstateny.com/opinion/2025...
Opinion: Zohran Mamdani, socialist menace?
Nearly a century ago, another socialist was elected NYC mayor. He did a pretty good job.

No one is covering the GOP's scheme to rig congressional maps for 2026 as closely as Democracy Docket. It is providing gavel to gavel coverage of the ongoing hearing over whether the Texas gerrymander will be in place for the midterms.

Jen and I are keeping Grand Blanc in our hearts today. Churches must always be places of safety and strength — an attack harming one community of faith is an attack on us all. California stands with Michigan and the Latter-day Saints community.

He wants to dictate what the press can say.
What a university can teach.
Whom a company can employ.
And to whom the law shall apply.
He who wants all this is not a president,
But strives to be a dictator.
And all who succumb are not citizens,
But subjects.

So many cowards and cynics on display right now. When the pendulum does swing back--and it will--don't forget where these sad and pathetic people stood in the hour of democracy's greatest need.
