But it's bittersweet to leave the @BostonGlobe, which has been my journalistic home for 5.5 years. There is no better team than @JimPuzzanghera, @LissandraVilla, @TalKopan and our fearless leader @JFKucinich. I will miss you guys so much.

I am hugely proud of the work we do in the Globe's DC bureau, and grateful for the Globe's commitment to us. I have learned so much here, from my DC colleagues and Boston-based aces like @vgmac, @emmaplatoff, @samanthajgross and the great great @JamesPindell

So the Washington Post gutted metro and now DCist and WAMU at a time when DC needs oversight over and accountability from our chaotic local elected leaders more than ever. Cool. This is fine.
Sad news: I am hearing that @dcist is being closed down, and there will be layoffs at @wamu885. This is the second time that DCist has been killed off, but it was back in 2018 that @wamu885 stepped in to revive it.

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp tells CNN he was interviewed at the office of the special counsel prosecuting Trump's federal election subversion case.

Smart story by @jessbidgood on the rising tide of American First isolationism in the GOP, particularly in the Senate, where 9 of 10 Rs first elected in 2020 or 2022 voted against the foreign aid bill, along with 5 of 7 Republicans first elected in 2018. bostonglobe.com/2024/02/19/n…

Per @CLFSuperPAC, they're "plowing around key Republican precinct areas."
NY-3 NEWS: @CLFSuperPAC hired multiple snow plow companies to plow public streets around voting areas to help turn out voters today on Long Island. There was a big storm in NY area. Millions have been poured into this seat.

This @EllenBarryNYT story captures the helpless horror of watching someone you love sink deeper and deeper into psychosis. My heart hurts for these parents. I have to think that improving antipsychotic medications might be the only sustainable solution. nytimes.com/2024/01/28/healt…

💯 on the ground reporting — reinforcing that all roads lead back to Trump
Boston Globe reporters fanned out across NH on Election Day and interviewed 125 voters. Nearly everyone saw themselves as voting for or against Trump. my dive on an election that already revolves around the former, not the current, president bostonglobe.com/2024/01/26/n…
