Listening to this guy never gets old. At my Kennedy School class on the IOP’s 60th anniversary.

This was truly an amazing moment.
A special moment last night at the @HarvardIOP “To give you some idea of what the IOP means to our family, my uncle Teddy, who was not even the chair, did not miss one meeting in 47 years, and he took attendance of the rest of us,” [Caroline] Kennedy said. “He didn’t do it because he wanted control. He did it because he cared.” Kennedy also praised her brother, John F. Kennedy Jr., who she said “was ahead of his time in recognizing that politics, popular culture, and energy were converging.” She noted that the IOP was “the first of its kind” and has inspired more than 50 similar institutes in the U.S. and abroad. “Today, this is still a living memorial for President Kennedy, the one he probably would have most enjoyed,” she said. thecrimson.com/article/2026/…

“There are a couple of school of thoughts about Vance, and one is that he is a craven opportunist, political opportunity. The other is that he is a true believer in a kind of post-Trump, MAGA ideology, which is authoritarian and it borders on Catholic theocracy. Any way, it’s a fascinating journey that he has taken.” Contributing Writer at @VanityFair @ccwhip speaking with @ScarboroughNow, @WillieGeist and Mika Brzezinski on @MSNOWNews @Morning_Joe via #StudiGo mobile studio

Yup.
Very true. Maggie is the best and cannot be intimidated. All of which also applies by the way to @katierogers.
