Legacy blue check from when those signaled verification (of identity and/or affiliation), as opposed to just being a receipt for a monthly user fee. Mostly here now for the lolz. Might launch a rocket later.
Throughout his life, #PresidentCarter would define his faith as “inextricably entwined with the political principles I have adopted.” It would infuse the decisions he made at every stage of his career as a public servant in ways both good and bad, historians say. via @csmonitor
Trying things out over at Bluesky, along with some colleagues at @csmonitor. Sky Follower Bridge? Starter packs? All TBD, but anyway, seems like a civil society over there....

“Israel destroyed Gaza. Why must #Israel destroy my second home?...The same method: Evacuations. Relentless bombing. Uncertainty. It is war.” As Israel pounds #Lebanon, #Gazans empathize, yet feel forgotten. By Ghada Abdulfattah & @Taylor_Luck @csmonitor csmonitor.com/World/Middle-E…
What did Quentin Tarantino once say about our film critic, Peter Rainer, that caused Peter, seated in the room, to drop his chopsticks? Hear him tell the story on the @csmonitor podcast “Why We Wrote This.” And find his report from #TIFF24 on our website.

I will never forget the global embrace we felt when Iraqi militants kidnapped our @csmonitor colleague in 2006 for nearly three months. It's been 4x that long for @evangershkovich & @WSJ.
Time to #FreeEvan, arrested by Russia on 3/29/23 despite being accredited by Russia.
My colleague Evan Gershkovich has spent ONE YEAR in a Russian prison-- and still has no trial date in sight.
If you could watch, share and help us raise awareness about his wrongful detention, we would be so grateful:

Despite calls by the #Biden Administration for the #Israeli government to rein in far-right settler attacks on unarmed #Palestinians, weeks later violent attacks are still taking place across the #WestBank
How do I know?

I got my colleague @KennethHKaplan1 to join the @csmonitor podcast “Why We Wrote This” to talk about the demanding work of orchestrating balanced coverage of the war in #Gaza. Above all, it’s about keeping humanity at the fore. Wherever you listen.
