We always read Borowitz when he was in The New Yorker — they were nuts to let him leave. So glad that he is on Substack. He's right about getting involved: I have a friend who is very quiet but puts her *money* where her mouth is. She has helped me get involved in postcard writing and texting for the Democratic Party, Joe Biden, abortion, etc. Try it! It really makes you feel less helpless.
Postcard writing is so important. It’s better than any mailer or ad that’s for sure. People see it’s handwritten immediately. And they usually seem to read it. Thanks for all you do Patt and thanks for reading!
I love being here. I’m reaching a much larger audience on Substack, and it’s pretty cool to be working for the people who actually read your writing. Plus I love the interaction! A great deal all around.
Inspired! Post cards require no envelope to open or not; handwriting is always appealing and it'll be more productive than my exhortations on social media! Thank you!
Yes! I don’t think I could’ve survived the Trump years without Borowitz and the few others… the crisis of corruption is still ongoing today because the media refuses to condemn him and his criminal gang. We will lose our democracy bc of the silence of media outlets covering Republicans as if it is still just another political party.
Trump walks like he’s a star. He’s studied Sinatra, Elvis, Brando — and thinks if he walks like them, he’ll be seen as one of those iconic talents and legends. But he’s merely the great pretender, which should be his theme song. Or — Stand By Your Scam. Conmen, televangelists, shock jocks, have talent to engage and have you believe what they’re spewing out — enough so you send them money. But none of them asked their marks to accept they were God. Trump is so self-destructive, he will shock even his faithful into submitting to reality. And they will never forgive him for it.
You’re keeping me sane! I watched the interview and read your Report Scott. I enjoyed your lighthearted tone even as you discussed heavy topics. I am inspired by Andy’s advice to pick one way to be involved. Making that appointment with myself right now to write those postcards. Democracy Needs Us!
This was a great interview. It actually gave me hope. Andy is, indeed a bright light, and Scott, your questions were spot on. I'm glad there is a way to access these intelligent articles and interviews. I also have become more involved and meet with a group to write postcards and do other activities to encourage and increase our voters. It has been a dark few years, thanks for the lift guys!

Wonderful interview! Love the unpretentious way you've gone about living on your terms; law school's loss is a gift to thousands of us!

It's been far too long since we've seen a Borowitz headline. Where is he hiding them?

You didn’t see about the Bible including nuclear secrets by mistake ? 😂 such dark humor xo 😘
Also terrifying that it could be true 😂

Thank you Daren. I really appreciate your compliment and for taking the time to watch! Writing postcards is great and effective!
As with other readers I was a fan of Mr.Borowitz from his days with the New Yorker. He is the perfect man to take on Trump.
Agreed Sandra! Thanks for reading/watching
