My campaign staff is advancing the Dignity of Work in Ohio and across the country every day. I am proud to recognize this team and stand in solidarity with them.

Never thought I would see "Meet the Press" publicly disssent from a decision made by NBC News, but it happened today. Chuck Todd to Kristen Welker: "Our bosses owe you an apology." Then two other panelists explained on air why hiring Ronna McDaniel is such a credibility disaster.

Dear Florida, Your turn. Love, Ohio wapo.st/3IYT8ii

You said I’d never be bored. Promise kept! Happy anniversary, Sherrod. I love you.

Morning view. (Hi, honey.👋)

A wonderful story about Conan O’Brien’s high regard for waitstaff. Reminds me of my mother’s wise advice when her daughters were young: Don’t marry them until you see how they treat the waitress.

After the vote, “jubilant delegates gathered on the floor…to sing a Methodist song that has become a refrain for many L.G.T.B.Q. Christians. ‘Draw the circle wide, draw it wider still,’ they sang. ‘Let this be our song: No one stands alone.’” nytimes.com/2024/05/01/us/…

Wonderful news.

Thinking of my friends at the Post. So much change and uncertainty in recent months.

Integrity, illustrated.

The demands of punditry require instant wisdom, and we are seeing the folly of that right now. Our first thought is seldom our best take. Election Day is in 129 days. I’m returning to my pandemic mantra: #Breathe.

I know I’ve made some people feel uncomfortable when I talk about how Chuckie died. I used to feel guilty about that, but I’ve set that boulder down. My brother was more than how he died, but how he died has changed who I am. open.substack.com/pub/connieschu…

Solidarity. #campaignlife

What a powerful piece by ⁦Francesca Mari⁩ Mari, as beautiful as it is thought-provoking. It is 2 stories: A devoted daughter’s ongoing journey with her father who has Alzheimer’s, and what we are learning about how to support those with Alzheimer’s. nytimes.com/2024/06/30/mag…

I can hear the question: Why am I writing about this now, when our country is on fire? Well, how can I not, when love is the one thing that saves us? open.substack.com/pub/connieschu…

President Joe Biden has prioritized country over self. A true American hero.

Good morning, indeed.

Sherrod loves Costco.

Look at the joy on that stage.
