"For all its slogan-like simplicity, these twinned words seem freighted with the complexities of guilt, obligation and even presumption — as if we could ever forget."
What does it mean to "Never Forget?" Time passes and memories falter, but a 9/11 widow will never forget hearing the news while buying eggs. A police chief will never forget the landfill. And I'll never forget the dust. My essay: nytimes.com/2021/09/08/nyreg…

Crediting my father with the tag line for this HBO miniseries. It was something he told us at every Passover Seder — arguing that the democracy is never perfected and demands quotidian maintenance. Every day, you gotta kill some snakes. Bernie Simon, you’re up on 42nd & Broadway.

A new video from Republicans for the Rule of Law, reminding House Republicans how some of their predecessors rose to the occasion 45 years ago. Will at least some of today’s Republicans put country and Constitution first?
The ad will air on Fox and will be promoted digitally.

They are so earnest and sincere when they are just youngsters. They leave it all behind when they grow up and take their place among the corrupt and cynical. .@RepStefanik

You're poultry. You're an actual fucking yardbird strutting around the internet and squawking as if the contents of your marble-sized brain are of assistance to anyone. I wrote and reported "The Corner" with Ed Burns, and "Homicide" on my own. Both sourced The Wire.
