Four brave prosecutors have resigned from the DOJ in protest of Trump’s meddling. I am impressed with their fortitude despite the almost guaranteed fallout that will follow.

I walk down the long empty hallway of the school; it’s early… and eerily quiet. I can’t help but feel nervous…I’ve got doubts, fears, questions. I’m back at work after three months of living someone else’s life. Am I up to it? Will I be too tired? The other day I stopped at Stewarts’ to […]
