@leahlitman.bsky.social Good morning! I bought your book yesterday! Since I listen to almost everything, I rarely buy books. I do when it is to support someone whose work I highly prize. You!

Duffy: "By the way, during covid, when people weren't flying, that was a perfect time to fix these problems." (Who wants to tell him ... )

Breaking News: The IRS agreed to share information with ICE to help locate people for deportation, court records show. This is a fundamental change in the IRS, which had gained the trust of migrants and encouraged them to file their taxes.

Ukrainians will have to live with the specter of Elon Musk cutting off satellite communications keeping their hospitals, military bases and troops online, as there are no short-term alternatives that can match the tech mogul's Starlink system.
