In sum: What a wild year. I never would have expected that I ever would be covering such a wide range of important, groundbreaking stories. I'm so grateful to

@KateNocera, who has taken over the#BuzzFeedDC bureau as it doubled in size and took on a whole new level of reporting in this extreme year. She and@katherinemiller are just incredible.Show this thread
