Joe Maligno, the general counsel for the New York State Young Republicans, wrote:

“Can we fix the showers? Gas chambers don’t fit the Hitler aesthetic,”

Add to my day's to-do list: File complaint w/ NY State Bar regarding his lack of fitness to practice law.

Anne Kaykaty, who wrote, "“I’m ready to watch people burn now,” is a school guidance counselor at Xaverian High School, apparently in Brooklyn, NY.

Add to my today's to-do list: suggest to Xaverian High School that this woman is unfit to be a counselor to their students.

During the 2018 shutdown, I was in the Control Tower keeping planes moving while worrying about how to pay rent.

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.
