Husband, father of 3 girls in their 20s, and a reporter-turned-attorney. I post about breaking news, politics, the media, and my life in Pittsburgh (especially running, my family, and my work as a civil litigator).
I am truly alarmed by the news everyday concerning King Trump's assault on our democracy.
It really got to me today when I read about JD Vance's radio show from the White House. Trumpers are going full steam ahead using Charlie Kirk's death to justify targeting liberal groups...

What a stressful workday. I have a lot going on with existing and new clients. I know that's a good problem to have, but still. I'm also stressed by today's terrible headlines, reflected in a single NYT email, about the state of our democracy...

I started out this morning in darkness thinking that I needed a sweatshirt. I ended up running 4 miles in a t-shirt and then shirtless and sweaty.
I did not think to check the "Dress My Run" app when getting ready for my run. The app is now telling me to wear a t-shirt and shorts...

Let's not forget that Cassidy, a doctor, voted for RFK Jr. in the first place. He wanted to give this well-known anti-vaxxer kook a chance. Republicans could have prevented the current destruction of the CDC.

How can these cabinet members look at themselves in the mirror? The extent to which they kissed Trump's ass today is disgusting.

Decent 7-mile run this morning with the Fleet Feet Pittsburgh Running Club. It was humid but nothing like the intense humidity last Sunday, thankfully.
We ran in the Strip District and on the North Side. I felt pretty good, although I got tired from time to time...
