@semafor
for the chance to talk about key areas of concern I have: dysfunction of federal government, $35 trillion federal debt, and the risk to our lifestyles and aspirations if the dollar is devalued and we can't pay our national debt.
"When I left the White House under President Carter we had about $800 billion in debt, we now have about $35 trillion,"
@DM_Rubenstein
says. "Nobody seems to be worried ... because people are willing to buy our treasury bills. At some point, people won't be willing to do that."
Thanks

Iconic America "Cowboy" episode where we explore the role of Black cowboys in American history.
Black men were among the first cowboys in the U.S. but pop culture erased them from the Western milieu over time, creating misleading iconography of an Old West filled with white men on horseback. Our collections help document a more accurate picture.

I am saddened at the passing of my friend David McCullough. He was one of our greatest historians and writers—a real loss for the country and all who care about well-researched and written-history of the United States. And a real loss for those who knew him as a friend.
