The horn playing legend of salsa, Willie Colon, passed away this morning. One of the all-time greats, talented and generous to a fault. The last time I saw him at Barclays Center he took time out to talk to my son Rex about his music. Total class act. Rest in peace Willie.

Loving this new book by my friend, Jonathan Smith, and his writing partner Derek Gaunt. It’s not just another book about negotiating. It’s a book that contains magic. It teaches how to get people to want to give you what you want. Fight Less, Win More.

My friend Peter Bergen has created this very insightful podcast, looking at security for the upcoming Democratic national convention in Chicago. Peter brilliantly looks back for historical context and then flashes forward with what to expect. audible.com/podcast/Episode-…

The 36th annual Candlelight Vigil will be held tonight at the National Law Enforcement Officer Memorial in Washington D.C. where 282 fallen officers will be honored. I’m grateful to have the opportunity to be traveling to the ceremony with my good friend, John Miller — and proud to read names of our heroes. John will be recognized with the Lifetime Excellence in Media award for his dedication to law enforcement, a very well-deserved award.

Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell hugs Capt Frank Bolz (ret) who founded the NYPD Hostage Negotiating Team 50 years ago. The commanding officers who followed were there too. They’ve saved hundreds of lives.

The lady. The legend. I was proud to be her Co-anchor. She always introduced me as, “This is John, my partner.” So proud to have known her. Rest in peace.

“Good morning. Multiple people are dead…” On what planet is that a good morning? We’ve had 609 mass shootings this year.

Love the the new Delta Sky Club lounge at LAX. As I approached what appeared to be the library, I have learned as I got closer that it was just a picture of books on the wall. They say a picture is worth 1000 words. I’m not sure this is what I meant.
