The debate

I hope, during tonight's debate, that voters will be reminded, in significant ways, that President Biden is an intrinsically decent and honorable man.

Former President Trump is not concerned with either decency or honor.  His plans for America (and the world) are dark, and perilous. One thinks of his perverse affection for dictators; his self-involvement; his bitterness, rage, and promises of revenge and retribution; his endless lies.

President Biden, I have no doubt, will continue seeking to strengthen and unite the country. Former President Trump likes nothing more than division, and chaos.

D-Day--one of the most consequential events in the history of America, and the world--took place on June 6, 1944. 

The picture, above, shows the inside of a newspaper I have--the New York tabloid paper the Daily Mirror.  The paper--and other D-Day newspapers--were given to me, during my childhood, by (I believe) my maternal grandparents.
