Op-ed | Requiem for the Kennedy Center, and everlasting shame on Donald Trump | amNewYork (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Donald Trump’s commitment to art, philanthropy, and charity is as pure and enduring as Jeffrey Epstein’s commitment to the spiritual and physical well-being of young women. Trump, a rich kid from Queens, was an obnoxious bully growing up. His parents had to send him to military school to control his impulsivity. He learned from his dad how to be a shark in business. But Donald Trump, favored with huge wealth, never showed an interest in any endeavor that did not bring him money. He did not enter
Op-ed | Supreme Court’s embarrassing ballroom decision | amNewYork (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Even though President Trump’s construction of his grand ballroom to replace the East Wing of the White House is likely unlawful, and even though a legal challenge to its construction likely would be successful, a narrow majority of the Supreme Court has allowed construction to continue.

Op-ed | Tracking New York’s ‘wandering cops’ | amNewYork (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“Wandering cops” is a term used to describe the phenomenon of rogue police officers fired for misconduct by one police department but who are able to get a job in another police department.

Op-ed | Trump’s hypocritical rhetoric on socialism and communism | amNewYork (opens the original)
Read excerpt
President Trump wants to scourge the Democrats as socialists, even communists. In fact, given the recent successful campaigns of democratic socialists, Trump is trying to conflate socialism with communism. He thinks that’s the best strategy to keep Republican control of Congress. Given the weakening economy, the Iran war, and Trump’s dismal ratings, making socialism and communism the rallying cry may be the only Republican gambit that’s left. Trump’s bumbling and bloviating about communism is no
Op-ed | Reflections on Trump’s Reflecting Pool fiasco | amNewYork (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The saga of the Reflecting Pool may seem insignificant compared to the litany of other lurid and despotic actions by President Donald Trump and his allies. But the story is about corruption, falsehoods, and the abuse of power — and needs to be told. Let’s begin with Trump’s boast back in April that he would make the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool a grand monument once again after, he claimed, it had been poorly managed by Presidents Obama and Biden. He hired cronies with “no-bid” contracts to
