I wrote this op-ed 3 years ago. Since then, nothing has changed. The true form of condolence is action. Because ‘thoughts and prayers’ aren’t keeping our kids safe.
It’s been 20 years since #Columbine. Covering it as a 22-year-old reporter for the @denverpost had a profound effect on me & lead to my 15 years in journalism. We haven’t done enough to prevent these. Here is my piece in the @NYDailyNews today:

Not all “stablecoins” are actually stable. That’s why having a primary prudential regulator & full 1:1 $USD backing is critical. Guess what? $USDP by Paxos and regulated by
I’ve always loved driving a stick-shift. Two years ago I bought a 2013 Fiat with only 34k miles on it. Have to believe the stick-shift is the reason I got it so cheap.
Crypto is the future.
It could enable the poor to make payments & remittances without long delays and high fees.
It could enable artists & musicians to earn a living.
It could challenge the concentrated power of Big Tech & Wall Street.
My Op-Ed:
Hey friends with kids, check out this book by my friend and colleague Ben. I’m pretty sure those of us without kids could also learn something from it.
If you want a fun way to help your child deal with life’s little challenges without getting frustrated, I’ve got a book for you - because I wrote it! It’s a father-son tale called Big Problems, Little Problems. Pre-order, friends! #patience#perspectivehttps://amazon.com/dp/088448890X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_i_5XNN07NTX2D8Z6RAPYQH…
How many more mass shootings do we need to finally make meaningful change to our gun laws? 5? 100? I’ve shopped many times at the Boulder King Soopers. If you are not safe there, then maybe it’s about the guns.

I’ve worked lots of elections. The numbers coming out of Philadelphia, SE PA, Allegheny County, Wayne County and Milwaukee County are not surprising and do not suggest any widespread fraud.
Every election, there are large margins that are often disappointing for Republicans.
For the next 31 days, we will light The Helmsley Building orange in honor of the victims in the El Paso and Dayton terror attacks. Let us all honor the victims of gun violence and let’s all take a stand against hate.
Hate armed with a gun is terrorism, plain and simple. We can no longer ignore the rise in hate and it should be clear that our gun laws have failed us all. There is no single solution to gun violence, but doing nothing will only result in more senseless deaths. #ElPaso#Dayton
If it takes a certain level of shock to get people’s attention, so be it. The future of our communities depends on breaking through the wall of inaction when it comes to our nation's gun violence epidemic.
