Biden should use his absolute immunity to issue an executive order barring convicted felons from seeking the highest office in the land.

Good for you, UK! Breath of sanity and civic hope.

Really good to have this in one clear document. If you have any doubts about the 2024 election, this should erase your doubts. This is what the election's about. Every single point on this wishlist is vile and antithetical to freedom, openness, and justice. Every. Single. Point.

Judge Cannon just dismissed the whole documents case against Trump. What timing, yes? And what profound injustice.

Two terrific new poems from Page! Take a look at the new "On the Seawall." Page Ron Slate “Phantom State” & “About the Pen” ronslate.com/phantom-state-… via On The Seawall

Thank you, President Biden. And now VP Harris for president. Yes! Some VP ideas for her--Buttigieg, Whitmer, Sherod Brown, Schumer, Schiff (but no, can't have two from Cali), Newsom (no, same reason), Hillary Clinton, Bashear, Kelly, Abrams, Castro, Booker, Warren...a deep pool!

Two great new books, two great old friends.

One strider, dozen shiner minnows, a zillion sun sparkles on today’s hike.

Incredible new book. First two sections of one of Longenbach’s unforgettable, visionary poems “In the Village.” He died in 2022. The poems go on…

Good friends who are good poets. Pure gravy, as Raymond Carver wrote. Thank you, Ted.

Loophole indeed

New novel at my local library. Checked it out. Great title.

I woke to find an email asking about my poem “Six Notes." Since it first appeared--less than 2 years ago--there have been 200+ acts of gun violence at K-12 schools in the US. I post this, not sure if it’s a good thing to do. I post it in sorrow and hope. newyorker.com/magazine/2022/…

Trump just referred to the January 6 rioters as “we”

So today my little white geranium thinks it’s a bird.
