The Luckiest Kid in the World

I was born in 1951 and grew up in a two-bedroom, one-bath rambler in St. Louis Park, a suburb of Minneapolis. My Dad never graduated high school and worked as a printing salesman. My mom was a real estate agent.

Rivers of blood!

While campaigning in Ohio this past weekend, Trump told his crowd, “Now, if I don’t get elected, it’s gonna be a bloodbath. That’s going to be the least of it. It’s going to be a bloodbath for the country.”

Such bullshit

I hate getting fundraising emails

It’s the last day of the month, and I bet you’ve gotten one or two (or 30) fundraising emails that insult your intelligence. I hate most of the fundraising emails that I get, by the way.

My McConnell Story

About a year into my first Senate term, I had a run-in with Mitch McConnell. I was presiding when McConnell rose to give his remarks on Elena Kagan’s nomination to the Supreme Court.

HOLY SH*T

The 2024 election will be the most important in our nation’s history (with the possible exception of 1860, Lincoln’s first election). I know people say that every election.
