Kid plays like he just got divorced and she took everything from him

George Clooney says it well, as Sen. Michael Bennet and others (but not enough) have said it well. We need more powerful Democrats to step up. Thank you, Joe, and it's time to retire. nytimes.com/2024/07/10/opi…

Peter Welch is a fine and steady man, I've been proud to know him for 56 years, but never prouder than today, as he offers this wise counsel—to Joe Biden, for us: Democratic Sen. Peter Welch: Biden should withdraw for the good of the country. wapo.st/4cXwhkm

Why on earth????

1/2 Reading "The Lady w the Borzoi," abt Blanche Knopf, by Claridge. Wondrful revelatory literary dish. Few people loved books qua books more than Blanche K (& Alfred certainly not one of them.) I say this w widened eyes as a one-time Knopf author E. Jean Carroll BGQ

2/2 Knopf: Blanche was heroic & unappreciated—acc to Claridge—elbowed out of credit by Alfred. What a story. She was signing Camus, Hersey, Sartre, Raymond Chandler, de Beauvoir, Cather, etc, while Alfred was smoking cigars in Purchase, NY. BGQ E. Jean Carroll
