For 20 years, Dr. Jamil Abdel Atti has led with heart and humanity in Gaza. Even amid unbearable loss, his faith and compassion continue to bring healing and hope. I’m honored to share my reflections on him in Spirituality & Health: 👉 https://t.co/UZm8RS9zpp

Last March, in an article that Katie Couric published, I invited President Trump to come with me to Gaza. #Trump #Gaza #KatieCouric #RebuildGaza

“In Gaza, I want our President to hear from people who have survived the terrors of a terrible war.”

What a joy in these troubled times to see this video of my godson George Lombard’s two sons, George Jr. and Jacob, playing the sport they love with the greatest enthusiasm and at the highest level. It makes me happy to share my pleasure and pride with you.
George is a Yankees top prospect. Jacob is a potential top pick in the 2026 MLB Draft. Meet the Lombards 🤝

Now I know that Tom Lehrer was offering us a wider, more generous, more challenging and courageous view of the world, setting an example of critical intelligence and imperturbable good humor whose support likely encouraged me in later years...

Even at 9, it felt like a special blessing, a premature passport to wised-up adulthood, to clean the floor or lounge on our bunks while Tom played.

Tom, smiling with pleasure at the rapt attention of me and my 3 bunkmates, used to play accordion and sing scabrous, hilarious parodies-about nuclear war and capitalism, love & drugs, & Harvard, where he was a graduate student, and where I would, seven years later, go to school.

So it is with Tom Lehrer, who died the other day at 97, the joyful, satirical songwriter-singer and mathematical prodigy who was my camp counselor when I was 9 years old.

The deaths of old friends--more and more each year--make me very sad. However, they also invite me to remember, reflect on, and appreciate these friends, sometimes even more than I did when they were still alive. 🧵
