All of Micheal Cohen’s writing is excellent but this one takes it up a notch. He clearly paints the picture the effects of incarceration allowing others to have a glimpse how it changes a person. This is very personal writing-raw, and painful.

@drjengunter.bsky.social once again provides a biting, clear, and accurate view of an important issue. There is nothing pro-life about the GOP. Democrats do NOT need to run a “pro-life” candidate ever. Ezra Klein needs to rethink his position.
