Saul Dreier, 98-year-old founder of the Holocaust Survivor Band, had a lifelong dream to play at the @WhiteHouse.
He fulfilled that dream this week.
After meeting @POTUS at the Hanukkah reception, he rocked it on drums with the President’s Own Marine Band. Keep Rockin’ Saul!

Highland Parkers gathered today to honor their fallen community members, one year after a shooter killed seven at the city's annual July 4 parade.
As the community struggles to heal, other U.S. cities reel from fresh eruptions of gun violence.

This week, our nation has again endured a wave of tragic shootings — just as we mark one year since the tragedy in Highland Park, Illinois.
Jill and I grieve for those lost, and as our nation celebrates Independence Day, we pray for the day when we’ll be free from gun violence.

Exclusive: A top Republican legal strategist told a roomful of GOP donors over the weekend that conservatives must band together to limit voting on college campuses, same-day voter registration and automatic mailing of ballots to registered voters, according to a copy of her presentation reviewed by The Post. wapo.st/41sUw4o

Last year, a coworker randomly asked me to hand-deliver an antique violin across the country. I said yes, because why not. I had no idea what I was getting into, and now I need your help. A 🧵

Kentucky’s gun laws are among the worst in the US, and the state has the 13th-highest rate of gun violence. Kentucky lawmakers passed permitless carry in 2019 and continue to introduce dangerous bills to arm teachers and force guns on campus.

Yesterday, I reintroduced the Securing Our Schools Act and the Protect Our Children’s Schools Act.
Sadly, Senate Democrats played politics and blocked these two critical school safety bills.

Yesterday, we were expelled from the Tennessee state house. Today, we were talking to the White House about common sense gun laws and protecting our democracy. We fight on! ✊🏾
Earlier, I spoke to Reps Jones, Pearson, and Johnson to thank them for their leadership and courage in the face of a blatant disregard of our nation’s democratic values.
Our country needs to take action on gun violence — to do that we need more voices like theirs speaking out.

Years ago, I attended a meeting about the future of democracy at Harlan Crow’s “house” (which was staged as a museum). I left deeply shaken by the Nazi memorabilia on display. Apparently I wasn’t alone. washingtonian.com/2023/04/07… 1/5
