"By archival kismet I mean simply this: allowing the archive, broadly defined, to guide you, and being open to questions and topics well outside of your wheelhouse." @Dr_C_Thompson introduces the fascinating essays in our Archival Kismet series.

I have some sad news to report regarding Charles Sellers’ health. At 97 years old, Charlie’s heart is failing and he will be entering into hospice care at Belmont. Luckily his doctor said he will still be somewhat mobile. His doctor predicts he has 3 to 6 months left.

I truly hope this is the Hartford Convention moment for the Republican party. May they enjoy the same fate as the Federalists.

Dear @VP @Mike_Pence: If Trump doesn’t resign, please start 25th Amendment proceedings to remove him. As you are well aware, @realDonaldTrump is detached from reality, angry and dangerous. Below is our letter to you from multiple Members of the @HouseJudiciary Committee.

This is like professors insisting on giving a lecture on a snow day or the wed before Thanksgiving. Just shut up and vote.

JUST IN: “This is not news we deliver lightly,” @margbrennan says as she reports: Trump Cabinet secretaries are discussing invoking the 25th Amendment to remove President Trump. Nothing formal yet presented to VP Pence.
“I’m talking about actual members of the Cabinet,” she says
