A Kent State shooting survivor’s obit, linked to here by @ronfournier.bsky.social, tells how injured student John Cleary "became a quiet yet powerful voice in warning about the dangers of poisonous political discourse and the suppression of free speech" -- relatable dangers now too.

Media "leaders" who stay mum about Trump chain yanks or comply just invite escalation, this journalism vet below warned when @apnews.com got spanked last spring.

Better to remember a rallying cry attributed to Ben Franklin:
"We must hang separately or most assuredly we shall hang together."

I thought Trump loved coal miners, those soot-faces avatars for the white working-class voters he courted during three presidential campaigns. But now I see this reporting by The @apnews.com, which reads more like dereliction than devotion. convulsions.substack.com/p/american-l...
