This sucks...McClatchy's DC bureau is one of the few newsrooms in Washington that covers politics through a state-level lens, including for NC #ncpol
Some news: McClatchy is shutting down their D.C. bureau and laying off some staffers, including a few reporters who cover Congress and the White House.

Some people visit gravesites as part of the grieving process. I walk by my shuttered @Starbucks place. RIP, quirky Santa Fe Plaza store where everyone knew my name (and importantly, my order).

Two stylish young men talking about politics, history and civility (in a nonpartisan way). Honored to learn from the legendary @BobShrum and a wonderful Global Santa Fe crowd.

It’s the 80th anniversary of the Trinity Test. The Santa Fe New Mexican’s marvelous Ania Hull looks at how news outlets missed the historic story because of misinformation. A worthwhile read (that deserves taking the time to sign up).

Eighty years ago today, the Trinity Test media coverage was a sham, with at least one reporter complicit in spreading the Manhattan Project's ammo-dump lie.

New fashion accessories (and a sign they want me to stick around). Except I need at least 72 others to mix and match with ties and pocket squares.

I’m rooting for the Heels (aka TBD on the ESPN bracket) so @ewalters1618 can smack-talk @thadogburn and @ssharpe all week long.

The remains, believed to be those of migrants, would be among hundreds of migrant deaths logged in the El Paso region since 2008, including more than 300 in Doña Ana County.

In just over a year, a volunteer organization found more than two dozen sites containing human bones in the Southern New Mexico desert.

This isn’t a comprehensive report on issues at the border. Rather, our goal is to bring to light what Holeman calls “an open graveyard” — where human remains, considered sacred in almost every culture worldwide, have been woefully neglected.

This project — the result of nearly six months of work — will leave a lasting imprint on the reporters and photographer who pieced it together.

The volunteer work has taken a toll, prompting searcher James Holeman to seek treatment for the stress it has induced. There are some sites containing remains he can no longer visit.

Finding hundreds of sites of migrant remains has taken its toll on James Holeman. He doesn't plan on stopping anytime soon.

Legal routes to the U. S. have become clogged with growing backlogs that likely will increase at steeper rates amid the Trump administration’s federal workforce layoffs.

The legal process for entering the U.S. is nearly impossible even for foreign nationals seeking refuge from violence in their home countries.

The plane collided with a helicopter just before it was scheduled to land. This is a developing story and will be updated.

It was 1 degree to start the morning. But the temperature has since tripled, and my attitude is much better.

Another holiday meltdown by @SouthwestAir, this time in Dallas. Losing faith in their ability to do their job.
