1 dead, damage widespread as tornadoes hit Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas
BY A DELA S ULIMAN
AND M ATTHEW C APPUCCI
Authorities in parts of Texas,
Oklahoma and Arkansas were
assessing damage early Saturday
after tornadoes struck overnight,
killing at least one person, injur-
ing at least two dozen and dam-
aging scores of buildings, officials
said.
Seventeen tornadoes were re-
ported, but the count was likely
to grow Saturday as the scope of
the damage becomes clear.
In McCurtain County in south-
eastern Oklahoma, one death
was confirmed by county emer-
gency manager Cody McDaniel.
<Roads are still blocked, and we
are trying to cut into those plac-
es,= McDaniel told the local news
outlet Fox 23 on Friday, adding
that there was <one fatality in
McCurtain County tonight.= He
did not provide further informa-
tion on the fatality.
In a statement posted online
early Saturday, county officials
urged people to <stay away from

Broken Bow and Pickens. Teams
of first responders and experts
were assessing the damage, going
<block to block, house to house to

Senate nominee from Georgia remains drowning

BY M ARY J ORDAN
pooler, ga. 4 After they had
said prayers and sung the final
<Hallelujah!= on a recent Monday
evening, the Relentless Church
Bible study group turned to the
Georgia Senate race.
Republican nominee Herschel
Walker has faced a number of
scandals, including an allegation
by his ex-wife that he put a gun to
her head in 2005 and threatened
to kill her, and more recent claims
by two former girlfriends that he
pressured them to have abor-
tions. And yet, Walker still has
such strong support that his race
against Democratic Sen. Raphael
G. Warnock is considered a toss-
up. The contest is one of a handful
that could determine which party
controls the Senate after Tues-
day9s midterm elections.
Walker has said he is a new
man, <redeemed by the grace of
God.= It9s a message that reso-
nates with Gail Barraza and other
members of her church, who say
they are not focused on Walker9s
past, but on his current pledge
that he will be a Republican sena-
tor who would support a national
abortion ban.
<We all have done wrong,= Bar-
raza, 64, said when asked about
some of Walker9s false state-
ments, including that he was his
high school9s valedictorian. <Who
are we to judge?=
<If you waited for the perfect
candidate, you would never vote
again,= agreed Leah Houz, 29,
who hosted the Bible study in her
home in this small, mostly White
suburb of Savannah, the
majority-Black city where War-
nock grew up.
Many Walker supporters inter-
viewed here over three days last
month are willing to forget 4 or
at least not think too much 4
about the allegations against him
because he supports a Republi-
can agenda that aligns with their
beliefs.
Walker, a Georgia football leg-
end who was urged by former
president Donald Trump to run
for Senate, has made faith a cen-
tral part of his pitch to evangelical
voters, a group whose support
would be key to his candidacy. He
has focused on the notion of
redemption, especially when con-
fronted about his past behavior,
including accusations of domes-
tic violence and failing to publicly
acknowledge and support his out-
of-wedlock children.
A spokesman for Walker did
not respond to requests for com-
ment for this story.
The members of the Relentless
Church Bible study group said

extreme weather, the office of
Sherriff Scott Cass said in a state-
ment late Friday.
It said the tornado hit the
region just after 4 p.m. local time
Friday and affected areas includ-
ing Beaver Creek, Powderly,
Hopewell and Caviness. No
deaths were reported, but 10
people were being treated at Par-
is Regional Medical Center. Two
of them were <critical but stable,=
the statement said.
Teams would be assessing the
damage and helping in cleanup
there have been so many news
reports about Walker9s past that
they didn9t know what to believe,
and so decided not to weigh the
candidate9s moral character as
they once would have. They said
they have tuned out what they
called the <chatter= and <noise.=
And yes, many said they know
Walker is <a flawed candidate,=
but they are willing to forgive his
past to focus on their future.
What mattered most was that he
was a Republican who could de-
liver a ban on abortions and an
end to Democratic control in the
Senate.
<Especially in these times, we
all have to learn to muzzle our
ears because there is so much
ying-yang goin9 on,= said Larry
Ward, 49, a roofer who also joined
the Bible discussion. He was tun-
ing out the <negative,= he said,
and basing his vote on the <non-
negotiables.= Asked what those
were, he began by saying, <Are we
looking for handouts or a work
ethic?=
The pastor of Relentless, Kyle
Garrison, 36, who also attended
the Bible session, made it clear he
will vote for Walker because the
Republican agenda is <more
aligned with God9s values.= Garri-
son said that God sometimes uses
flawed people to do good things
and that Walker could help Re-
publicans regain control of the
Senate 4 a fact blaring on Geor-
gia airwaves in the final days of
the campaign.
According to many Republican
voters, especially those who call
themselves conservatives, Demo-
crats have not done enough to
address crime, inflation, gasoline
prices and immigration. Garrison
added that he also believes there
is an <over-acceptance= of <homo-
sexual rights= and that the coun-
try <needs a new direction.=
It wasn9t just the moms jug-
gling jobs and kids, or the busy
shop owners, or the many active-
duty and retired military mem-
bers living here, who said they
didn9t really know much about
Walker9s troubled past. Mainly
they knew he was No. 34, a
Heisman Trophy winner and one
of the greatest running backs in
University of Georgia history.
<I am not sure what the facts
are,= said Rebecca Benton, the
mayor of Pooler, when asked
about one of the former girl-
friends who said Walker had paid
for her abortion.
What people say they do know
is that gas costs too much and
there is <runaway crime= 4 there
has been a blitz of GOP ads for
Walker showing vicious assaults
and laying blame on President
operations, the statement said,
adding that Lamar County Judge
Brandon Bell declared an official
disaster in the area, a procedural
step toward obtaining federal as-
sistance and funding. His decla-
ration said that <at least two
dozen people were injured
around the county,= the local
Paris News publication and the
Associated Press reported.

Biden.
Trump urged Walker, a long-
time friend, to run against War-
nock and capitalize on his huge
name recognition in this football-
obsessed state. Trump narrowly
lost Georgia in 2020, winning
49.3 percent of the vote to Biden9s
49.5 percent. But one group that
came through for Trump was
evangelical Christians 4 89
percent voted for him, according
to AP VoteCast. And Walker is
focusing heavily on them, appear-
ing at many evangelical churches
and constantly talking about his
Christian faith and redemption.
On the stump, Walker often
responds to criticisms from War-
nock by arguing that he is a <a
pastor who doesn9t even believe
in redemption.= In an ad released
shortly after the first woman ac-
cused Walker of paying for her to
have an abortion, the candidate
says, <I9m Herschel Walker, saved
by grace.=
That messaging works for
many of the voters he is trying to
win over.
According to Pew Research, 63
percent of Americans identify as
Christian and 40 percent as Prot-
estant. Pew further found that 24
percent of adults consider them-
selves born-again or evangelical
Protestants. Georgia has one of
the highest numbers of those
Protestants in the country; vari-
ous surveys estimate that they
make up 33 to 39 percent of the
state9s voters.
Many Christians support War-

but no injuries had been reported

and justice for all.
There is a huge divide among
Christians over abortion and oth-
er political issues. Warnock is a
Baptist preacher who supports
abortion rights. During a debate
last month, he said: <A patient9s
room is too narrow and small and
cramped for a woman, her doctor
and the U.S. government. . . . I
trust women more than I trust
politicians.= For much of the race,
he has focused on the issues,
especially lowering prescription
drug prices and helping veterans,
but as Walker has gained in the
polls, he has hit back at him.
<This is a man who lies about
the most basic facts of his life,=
Warnock said recently about his
opponent. <If we can9t trust him
to tell the truth about his life, how
can we trust him to protect our
lives and our families and our
children and our jobs and our
future?=
Walker said he graduated from
the University of Georgia in the
<top 1 percent,= when in fact he
never graduated, leaving in his
junior year for the NFL. Walker
has also said he worked in law
enforcement, a claim that has
been debunked. Still, at a debate
last month, he flashed a sheriff9s
badge and later released a video
in which he posed with a sheriff
and insisted that the gold-colored
star was real.
In 2017, Rep. Tim Murphy
(R-Pa.) resigned from Congress
after it became public that he
urged his mistress to have an
abortion despite his antiabortion
stance. GOP leaders urged him to
quit. But now, the National Re-
publican Senatorial Committee is
pouring tens of millions of dollars
into Walker9s campaign to keep it
alive, and leading figures in the
Meanwhile, winds changing
direction with height helped in-
duce wind shear, which imparted
rotation to the storms.
November tornado outbreaks
do not occur as regularly as their
spring counterparts, but they9re
not uncommon.
The worst storms
Early Friday afternoon, the Na-
tional Weather Service Storm
Prediction Center took the un-
usual step of announcing a level 4
out of 5 <moderate risk= for se-
vere weather. The red zone cov-
ered extreme northeast Texas,
southeast Oklahoma and south-
west Arkansas, including the cit-
ies of Paris, Tyler and Hot
Springs. Paris was later hit by a
tornado, and Tyler and Hot
Springs both were at least par-
tially included in tornado warn-
ings.
It9s only the fourteenth time
since 2002 that a moderate risk
has been issued in November,
underscoring the relative rarity
of such a high-end event in the
autumn.
Forecaster confidence was ini-
tially shaky as to how likely
tornadoes would be. By the early
evening, a string of four or five
main rotating supercells had be-
come established, and as they
tapped into the low-level jet
stream, they became tornado fac-
tories.
One rotating thunderstorm be-
came established just northeast
of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metro-
plex, strengthening around the
time of the evening commute as it
Republican Party, including Sen.
Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.) and
Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.), have
come to Georgia to campaign
with Walker, because his victory
could tip the balance of power in
the Senate.
Democrats are pouring money
into the race, too. Former presi-
dent Barack Obama flew to Atlan-
ta last Friday, praising Warnock
at a rally that drew thousands. He
also took a shot at Walker, saying
voting for a candidate <who car-
ries around a phony badge and
says he9s in law enforcement like
he9s a kid playing cops and rob-
bers= isn9t the way to address
concerns over crime.
Obama also raised the GOP
nominee9s <issues of character=
and called Walker a <celebrity
who wants to be a politician.=
Walker9s response was to stay
on his religious messaging. <I9m
not a celebrity,= he said. <I9m a
warrior for God.=
Even as Walker keeps repeat-
ing <God forgave me,= he is vague
on why he needed forgiveness.
Sometimes he refers to his 2008
book 4 in which he talks about
his <dissociative identity,= or mul-
tiple personality, disorder 4 and
says God helped him overcome
his mental illness. He denied
knowing the first woman who
said he paid for her to have an
abortion, but later acknowledged
that she was the mother of one of
his children. He also admitted
that he9d written her a check for
$700, but said he didn9t know that
it was to pay for an abortion.
News of that allegation
brought criticism from Walker9s
adult son, who posted on Twitter
that his father was absent and not
a Christian family man. The son
tweeted: <He left us to bang a

later hit the west side of Paris,
Tex., then continued north and
destroyed much of the town of
Powderly. Two dozen people were
injured by the tornado, and a
disaster declaration has been is-
sued for Lamar County.
Another rotating supercell
paralleled its predecessor about
30 to 40 miles to the east. It first
dropped a highly photogenic tor-
nado near Sulphur Springs, Tex.,
about 55 miles east-northeast of
Dallas off Interstate 30.
An additional tornadic super-
cell, once again about 30 or 40
miles to the east, passed north of
Daingerfield and then hit the
town of Naples, Tex. It then
crossed Highway 77 and paral-
leled 67 northeast as it trucked
toward New Boston, where it
leveled structures on the west
side of town. Debris was lofted to
near 30,000 feet, suggesting a
high-end EF3 or EF4 tornado
with winds potentially in the 150
to 170 mph range.
The storms formed as a result
of a potent mid-level disturbance
4 a pocket of frigid air, low
pressure and spin nestled within
a dip in the jet stream. That
trigger ejected out of New Mexico
during the late morning hours
before passing over the Texas
Panhandle. Thunderstorms
erupted along and ahead of a
surface cold front, growing into a
dynamic environment favoring
strong tornadoes.

girlfriends said he pressured
them into having abortions years
ago, and call him hypocritical for
supporting a strict abortion ban

Not all of those who say they
will vote for him find it easy.
<It9s a difficult choice,= said
Colleen Suddath, 61, a member of
Relentless and its Bible study.
One Republican noted that
there are barely any Walker yard
signs. Even along U.S. Route 80,
the main road through Pooler,
there were clusters of signs for
Republican candidates 4 includ-
ing many for Rep. Earl L. <Buddy=
Carter, the city9s former mayor
who is running for reelection to
Congress 4 but only one small
sign for Walker.
But Suddath is not happy with
Biden and thinks Warnock just
follows the Democratic agenda.
She said Walker better represents
what her state wants. She blamed
Biden for soaring gas prices. She
also worries that Democrats will
try to expand the Supreme Court
to take control of it 4 a scenario
frequently raised by Republican
ads and one that Warnock has not
declaratively spoken out against.
As a mother who home-
schooled her two children, she
also believes that Republicans
would give parents more control
of what children are taught in
public schools. So she plans to
vote for Walker.
<He has overcome a lot of is-
sues,= she said.

MIDTERMS FROM A1
Oregon.
<Republicans are turning out,=
Adam Laxalt, the GOP Senate
nominee in Nevada, said at a
campaign event Friday night in
North Las Vegas. <Democrats . . .
what do they have to be motivat-
ed about? This is our shot.=
Recent history has dictated
that the president9s party loses
seats in midterm elections, but
Democrats thought they might
defy that trend. Energized by the
end of Roe v. Wade and buoyed by
the GOP9s elevation of polarizing,
often untested candidates loyal to
former president Donald Trump,
Democrats sought to frame the
midterms as a reckoning with
Republican extremism rather
than a referendum on the current
president.
<Democrats even having a shot
at having a decent night is un-
precedented in the political envi-
ronment we9re living in,= said
Chuck Rocha, a veteran Demo-
cratic strategist working on many
races this year. <The off-year elec-
tion, the president, redistricting,
inflation 4 my God. How are
Democrats not going to lose ev-
erything?=
Now many worry that a strong
night nationally for Republicans
could wallop candidates up and
down the ballot who had been
holding their own 4 though some
Democrats say that they long
expected key races to narrow and
that they remain hopeful.
<Republicans came home in
August and September, and
they9re coming home now.
They9ve solidified,= said Celinda
Lake, a lead pollster for Biden9s
2020 presidential campaign.
The trend extends to some of
the most Democratic jurisdic-
tions, including New York, where
Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) is in an
unexpectedly tight reelection
fight and where Rep. Sean Patrick
Maloney, chair of the Democratic
Congressional Campaign Com-
mittee, is at risk of losing in a
district where Biden once won by
10 points and where Republicans
dramatically ramped up their
spending last month.
Confident they will be in the
majority in at least the House
next year, Republicans are al-
ready planning to launch over-
sight investigations into the
Biden administration, from the
Justice Department to the coro-
navirus pandemic response. GOP
control of the Senate as well could
hold up confirmation of Biden9s
judicial and executive branch ap-
pointees and strengthen the par-
ty9s hand in potential fights to
repeal Biden9s legislative achieve-
ments from his first two years in
office.
Leaders of both parties have
been traveling to battleground
states in the final days, trumpet-
ing their closing messages and
trying to boost turnout among
base voters. Democrats are trying
to hammer home an urgent mes-
sage about heightened threats to
the democratic process, with
Biden warning this week of a
<path to chaos= as many GOP
nominees deny the 2020 election
results and some refuse to say
they will accept this year9s out-
comes.
A majority of GOP nominees
for House, Senate and key state-
wide offices have denied or ques-
tioned the 2020 results, an alarm-
ing tally in the first election since
a pro-Trump mob attacked the
U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, to
disrupt certification of the vote.
Yet candidates and strategists
acknowledge that for many
Americans, immediate problems
such as inflation will trump more
existential concerns about de-
mocracy.
<I understand that democracy
might not seem like a top priority
right now,= former president Ba-
rack Obama conceded last week
at a rally in Nevada, one of many
energetic appearances he has
made in recent days as the Demo-
crats9 biggest star.
Democrats have pivoted to
sharper messaging aimed at peo-
ple9s pocketbooks, casting Repub-
licans as threats to Medicare and
Social Security, but some strat-
egists regret not focusing on
these issues sooner.
<We had a very strong contrast
on the economy and we should
have been talking about it more,=
Lake said. <I just hope it9s not too
late.=
Republicans are heading into
Election Day with a slight edge in
many polls of generic matchups,
and some GOP operatives once
wary of the fallout from overturn-
ing Roe say those worries have
evaporated. While the abortion
issue seemed to sway suburban
women and other key swing
groups, some polling shows those
voters shifting back toward the
GOP.
The calculus is simple for vot-
ers like Patty Fulgenzi of Maple
Valley, Wash., who said her retire-
ment budget is strained to the
point she9s considering going
back to work. <The last two years,
things just seem to get worse,= she
said at a recent rally for Matt
Larkin, the Republican challeng-
ing her congresswoman, Demo-
crat Kim Schrier. <I9m hoping for
change.=
Below is a look at the battle for
control of the Senate and the
House, as well as a survey of the
most-watched governor9s races
coast to coast.
The Senate
he race for control of the
T Senate is remarkably close,
and Republicans need a net
gain of just one seat to win the
majority. Polling averages put at
least eight Senate races within
five percentage points, and while
many Republican candidates
have made measurable gains in
recent weeks, each side still has a
plausible path to the majority.
Republicans are challenging
Democratic incumbents in pur-
ple states including Arizona,
Georgia, Nevada and New Hamp-
shire, where Biden9s approval rat-
ings have fallen since he carried
those states in 2020 and voters
express a dreary view of the econ-
omy. Republican-held open seats
in Pennsylvania, Ohio and North
Carolina are also friendly terrain
for Republicans. But some early
recruitment failures on the Re-
publican side combined with
Trump endorsing inexperienced
candidates in bruising primaries
has complicated the party9s path
to the majority.
The pure toss-ups
Republicans see Nevada as
their top pickup opportunity:
Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto (D)
is locked in a close race with
former state attorney general
Adam Laxalt (R), whose father
and grandfather were both sena-
tors. Privately, national Demo-
crats concede this is their tough-
est race, and they are hoping the
state9s Democratic turnout ma-
chine is able to push Cortez Masto
over the edge.
Cortez Masto, the first Latina
elected to the Senate, has ham-
mered Laxalt over the issue of
abortion in the largely pro-
abortion rights state, reminding
voters he once called Roe v. Wade
a <joke,= and supports a referen-
dum to ban abortion in Nevada
after 13 weeks of pregnancy.
But Laxalt, who chaired
Trump9s 2020 Nevada reelection
effort and pushed his false claims
of voter fraud, is betting the
economy will be top-of-mind for
voters. Nevada9s tourism-based
economy has been hit hard since
covid, and the state also struggles
with high gas prices.
Georgia could once again de-
termine which party controls
the Senate: Former football star
Herschel Walker, the GOP nomi-
nee, has made gains in his race
against Democratic Sen. Raphael
G. Warnock despite allegations
from two women that he paid for
abortions and other allegations
that he threatened his ex-wife9s
life.
Warnock, the senior pastor at
Ebenezer Baptist Church in At-
lanta, has warned that voters
can9t depend on Walker. <If we

can9t trust him to tell the truth
about his life, how can we trust
him to protect our lives and our
families and our children and our
jobs and our future?= he asked at
a recent campaign stop.
Walker has higher unfavorable
ratings than Warnock, but
Republicans are nevertheless co-
alescing around him, illustrating
the partisan divide in a state that
was solidly Republican until two
years ago, when three Democrats
won statewide: Biden, Warnock
and Sen. Jon Ossoff.
Democrats hope some Repub-
lican voters uneasy over Walker9s
personal issues will leave their
ballots blank, boosting Warnock.
But Senate Majority Leader
Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) was
overheard late last month pri-
vately telling Biden things were
going <downhill= for Democrats
in the state.
If neither candidate clears 50
percent, a runoff election would
occur in December, meaning con-
trol of the Senate could hang in
the balance for a month.
The race for Pennsylvania9s
open Senate seat has been an
expensive roller coaster ride:
GOP celebrity doctor Mehmet Oz
has gained ground since the sum-
mer against Lt. Gov. John Fetter-
man (D), who suffered a stroke
earlier this year. It9s the most
expensive race of the cycle, ac-
cording to OpenSecrets, attract-
ing more than $300 million in
total spending.
Democrats have attacked Oz
over his authenticity, portraying
him as a slick TV hustler who is
also an outsider to the state.
Republicans, meanwhile, have
raised questions about Fetter-
man9s fitness for office as he
recovers from his stroke, running
ads featuring footage from the
candidates9 lone debate that show
Fetterman struggling with his
words. They also attack Fetter-
man relentlessly on crime, por-
traying him as too liberal for the
state.
Wisconsin is trending red but
still competitive: Sen. Ron John-
son (R) is fighting for a third term
in what has appeared to be an
expensive success story for Re-
publicans so far, although polls
show that Democratic Lt. Gov.
Mandela Barnes still remains
competitive.
Johnson, a former plastics
manufacturer who had become
unpopular in the state, looked
deeply imperiled earlier this year.
But GOP groups then unleashed a
torrent of attacks on Barnes, us-
ing his past statements to portray
him as a radical who is soft on
crime.
Barnes, who is trying to be-
come the first Black senator to
represent the state, has attacked
Johnson for downplaying the Jan.
6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S.
Capitol and attempting to deliver
a slate of false electors from Wis-
consin in the 2020 presidential
election.
Where Democrats are
increasingly vulnerable
A strong incumbent might be
in trouble: Arizona Sen. Mark
Kelly, a former astronaut and
Navy pilot, is struggling to stave
off a challenge from GOP nomi-
nee Blake Masters, a venture capi-
talist and the protege of Silicon
Valley billionaire Peter Thiel.
Kelly has portrayed himself as
an independent voice who has
confronted his party on border
security, but Masters has worked
to paint him as a rubber stamp for
Biden in a state that has more
Republican voters than Demo-
cratic ones.
Masters emerged from the Re-
publican primary with high unfa-
vorable ratings, though conserva-
tives have started coming home
to him in recent weeks. He sup-
ports a national abortion ban and
has boosted Trump9s false claims
of voter fraud, which Democrats
have said makes him too extreme
for a state that has tended to
support senators who buck the
party line.
A late Republican surge in
New Hampshire has Democrats
worried: Don Bolduc has made
late gains in the race against
Democratic Sen. Maggie Hassan,
who won her seat six years ago,
beating incumbent Republican
Kelly Ayotte by a little over 1,000
votes.
Hassan was once considered to
be one of the Democrats9 toughest
candidates to defend this cycle,
but after Bolduc, a retired Army
brigadier general, emerged from
the September primary as the
THE WASHINGTON POST
MELINA MARA/THE WASHINGTON POST
DEMETRIUS FREEMAN/THE WASHINGTON POST
Republican nominee instead of
an establishment-backed candi-
date, polls showed Hassan com-
fortably ahead. Since then, Bold-
uc reversed his earlier false posi-
tion that the 2020 election was
stolen and has consolidated the
Republicans around him. Hassan
has pointed out Bolduc9s past
support for abortion restrictions
in the very pro-abortion rights
state, which has tended to back
more middle-of-the-road candi-
dates.
The state could provide an
early indicator of how the elec-
tions are going, since polls close
at 7 p.m. Eastern time.
Where Republicans are more
vulnerable than they should
be
Ohio is competitive despite
leaning Republican in past
years: This race has drained con-
siderable resources from Repub-
lican groups as GOP Senate can-
didate J.D. Vance seeks to defend
the red state from former Demo-
cratic Rep. Tim Ryan9s surprising-
ly strong challenge.
Republicans concede Ryan has
run a solid race by portraying
Vance, who was born in Ohio and
later attended Yale Law School
before moving to San Francisco,
as an elite outsider. Ryan9s prodi-
gious fundraising also allowed
him to flood the airwaves with
ads separating himself from na-
tional Democrats.
The races further out of reach
North Carolina could stay
Democrats9 white whale: Polls
suggest that the race for an open
seat in North Carolina, which has
been out of reach for national
Democrats in recent cycles, ap-
pears to be leaning toward Re-
publican Rep. Ted Budd over the
Democratic nominee, Cheri Beas-
ley, the former chief justice of the
state Supreme Court.
But recent polls show the race
still within a few percentage
points, and Beasley, the first
Black woman nominated for the
Senate from North Carolina, has
tried to separate herself from
national Democratses.
Republicans have strong can-
didates in Colorado and Wash-
ington, which could flip these
seats red: In the Democratic-
. SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 6 , 2022
controlled states of Colorado and
Washington, Republicans have
touted their Senate candidates,
Joe O9Dea and Tiffany Smiley,
respectively, as two of their best
recruits.
O9Dea, the owner of a construc-
tion business, is pro-abortion
rights and opposes Trump9s run-
ning for president again, dispens-
ing with two pieces of baggage
that could hurt him with inde-
pendents in the state as he chal-
lenges Sen. Michael F. Bennet (D).
And in Washington, Tiffany Smi-
ley, a nurse and first-time candi-
date, is mounting a spirited chal-
lenge to Sen. Patty Murray (D).
Polls show both Republicans
trailing the Democratic incum-
bents, but a big red wave on
Tuesday could lift them to sur-
prising victories.
The House
n the House, Republicans only
I need to net five seats to regain
the majority, a feat that ap-
pears well within reach as wor-
ries over rising prices, crime and
other issues have solidified sup-
port for GOP candidates.
The most vulnerable
Democrats
Thirty-nine Democrats are on
the front lines: They9re defend-
ing the House majority, according
to the Democratic Congressional
Campaign Committee, and repre-
sent true swing districts sprin-
kled across the country.
Most of them are members
from the majority-making class of
2018, in which Democrats flipped
41 GOP seats after promising to
protect health-care access and
restore competence in govern-
ment two years into Trump9s pres-
idency. These front-liners are de-
fined by their pragmatic ap-
proach that often rebukes the
extremes, which sets them at
odds with their more liberal col-
leagues.
Republicans and Democrats
have consistently cited the seats
held by Reps. Cindy Axne (D-
Iowa), Tom Malinowski (D-N.J.),
and Elaine Luria (D-Va.) as the
most reliable flips for the GOP.
Many Democratic members,
aides and strategists are tele-
graphing that losses on the East
Coast could set the tone for the
rest of election night. Besides
Luria, two other Virginia Demo-
crats, Abigail Spanberger and
Jennifer Wexton, are ones to
watch because if either is defeat-
ed 4 especially Wexton, whose
district is considered safer 4 it
could mean Democrats are in for
a tough night.
Democrats in deep-blue
districts could be in trouble
Republicans believe if they can
flip Democratic seats not only in
front-line districts but also in
New England, California and Or-
egon, they could rack up 20 new
seats or more.
New York contains surprise
Republican opportunities: Dem-
ocratic retirements in Long Is-
land have put two seats up for
grabs, as voters9 concerns about
crime and high prices in New
York City spill over. Maloney has
been a GOP target all cycle, and
his Hudson Valley district is in
play, frightening Democrats
about their chances in three addi-
tional Upstate New York districts.
In California, a possible Re-
publican resurgence: Both par-
ties are eyeing six seats in Califor-
nia. Rep. Julia Brownley9s (D) 4
whose district Biden won by 20
percentage points two years ago
4 has been moved closer to toss-
up territory, according to The
Cook Political Report. Republi-
cans believe they can flip an open
seat as well as those of Reps. Katie
Porter and Mike Levin in South-
ern California. Democrats, mean-
while, see a rare opportunity to
flip a district, targeting Rep. Da-
vid G. Valadao after redistricting
made his district more favorable
for Democrats.
Republicans eye Connecticut:
Only recently did Democrats start
to fear that they could lose Con-
necticut9s 5th District. By defeat-
ing Rep. Jahana Hayes, Republi-
cans could break a Democratic
hold here going back almost two
decades and tear into the party9s
New England <blue wall.=
And Rhode Island: A similar
trend is occurring in Rhode Is-
land9s 2nd District, where Repub-
licans nominated a formidable
candidate in Allan Fung, the may-
or of Cranston, against Democrat
Seth Magaziner. A win by the
Republicans here would be seis-
mic and could indicate a blowout
night for the party.
A progressive could cost Dem-
ocrats in Oregon: Both parties
are eyeing three seats in Oregon,
more than usual for a reliably
blue state. It9s likely at least one
flips after Democratic primary
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 6 , 2022
voters in the 5th District, outside
of Portland and Salem, ousted
moderate Rep. Kurt Schrader (D)
for liberal Jamie McLeod-Skin-
ner. A victory by the Republican
candidate, Lori Chavez-DeRemer,
would be historic, making her the
first Latina to serve from a dis-
trict Republicans haven9t repre-
sented since 1997.
But Republicans have their
own problems
There are three House seats
where Trump-endorsed candi-
dates appear to be diminishing
Republicans9 chances for what
should have been easy pickups.
In Michigan, election denial-
ism may turn off suburban vot-
ers: Republican John Gibbs de-
feated Rep. Peter Meijer in Michi-
gan9s 3rd District Republican pri-
mary after rebuking Meijer for
voting to impeach Trump follow-
ing the Jan. 6 attack. But Gibbs9
strong Trump bona fides, coupled
with his writings declaring wom-
en shouldn9t have the right to
vote, are tough for a general
electorate in which independents
are a key persuadable group.
A Jan. 6 attendee may be a
bridge too far for Ohioans: Rep.
Marcy Kaptur (D) was poised to
lose in Ohio9s 9th District, which
voted solidly for Trump, but her
GOP opponent, J.R. Majewski,
may have sunk his own chances
after lying about his military rec-
ord. He has also spread QAnon
conspiracy theories, violated fed-
eral law for failing to disclose
personal finances, and attended
the Jan. 6 rally at the Capitol.
Scandal could sink a North
Carolina Republican: Sandy
Smith raced to victory in the
primary in North Carolina9s 1st
District after receiving Trump9s
endorsement, but her MAGA
bona fides and domestic abuse
allegations from her ex-husbands
have made it more difficult for
her to win over independent vot-
ers. Smith has also pushed
Trump9s 2020 election lie and was
outside the Capitol on Jan. 6.
GOP also could lose some
seats thanks to redistricting
In Ohio, a seven-term incum-
bent might be out: Rep. Steve
Chabot (R) is seeking his seventh
term in Ohio9s 1st District, but it
has been redrawn to favor Demo-
crats, making his chances of sur-
vival slim.
The end of the road for one of
the few remaining Republicans
who voted to impeach Trump:
Valadao (R-Calif.) survived an in-
credibly tight primary race in
California9s 13th District even af-
ter having voted to impeach
Trump following Jan. 6. Redis-
tricting is also working against
him now that the boundaries
have made it a district Biden
would have won by 10 percentage
points in 2020.
In New Mexico, a trade-off:
Rep. Yvette Herrell (R-N.M.)
swung dramatically from run-
ning in a reliably safe seat to a
district that Biden would have
carried by 4 percentage points.
Republicans tried to shore up
a district in Nebraska, but it
might not be enough: Rep. Don
Bacon (R) has repeatedly eked
out reelection in Nebraska9s 2nd
District, which is often consid-
ered the most vulnerable for the
GOP. Though redistricting has
made it slightly more favorable
for Republicans, Bacon now faces
a more moderate Democratic
challenger, rather than the liber-
als of years past.
If Republicans win big, look
for a diverse freshman class
Hispanic voters could propel
three Texas Latinas to Congress:
One of the biggest trends to
emerge from the 2020 presiden-
tial election was Hispanic voters9
gravitation toward the GOP, espe-
cially in South Texas. Voters in the
Rio Grande Valley have the
chance to send three GOP Latinas
to Congress 4 a historic feat for a
region that has been represented
historically by male Democrats.
Thirty-three Latino Republi-
cans are on the ballot elsewhere,
from Florida to Oregon, which
could help double the representa-
tion they have in the conference if
they win. Roughly 30 Black Re-
publicans are also on the ballot.
Two of them, John James in Mich-
igan and Wesley Hunt in Texas,
are expected to win, which could
double the number of Black Re-
publicans serving in the House
from two to four. And with 13
Asian American Republicans
running for the House, those
ranks could expand as well.
Regardless of Tuesday9s out-
come, we are likely to witness the
largest number of Republican
women serving in the House9s
history. Eighty are on the ballot,
27 of them incumbents.
The governors
overnors will be elected
G Tuesday in 36 states, with
20 held by Republicans and
16 by Democrats.

TOP: Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak, the state9s first Democrat in the office in 20 years when he was elected in 2018, is one of several
Democrats locked in a tight battle for reelection in the state. ABOVE: Republican gubernatorial nominee Joe Lombardo, the Clark County
Sheriff, gives candy to children during a parade in Carson City. Polls show the two candidates in a virtual dead heat.
Where the choice couldn9t be
starker
Arizona voters face a big deci-
sion: The woman who oversees
the state9s elections process,
Democratic Secretary of State Ka-
tie Hobbs, or a former TV anchor
who embraces Trump9s lie that his
election was stolen, Republican
Kari Lake.
The two are vying to replace
Gov. Doug Ducey (R), who is
term-limited, in a state Biden
narrowly won two years ago. Polls
show them nearly dead-even,
though support for Hobbs has
softened in recent weeks and
support for Lake has slightly im-
proved.
The two candidates are as dif-
ferent in style as they are on
substance. Lake is brash and pol-
ished, rallying the base of the
GOP with praise for Trump and
dire warnings about election in-
tegrity as well as illegal immigra-
tion.
Hobbs is much more low-key,
sticking to a campaign script and
warning of Republican attempts
at voter intimidation. Hobbs re-
fused to debate, saying she
doesn9t want to take part in her
opponent9s <spectacle,= a decision
that has become fodder for at-
tacks from Lake and other Re-
publicans.
In Pennsylvania, election de-
nialism has also taken center
stage: Except in this race, Demo-
crat Josh Shapiro, the state attor-
ney general, is running signifi-
cantly ahead of his Republican
opponent, Doug Mastriano, an
army veteran and state senator
who denies the result of the 2020
election and openly embraces
Christian nationalism.
Mastriano has shunned the
mainstream media and come un-
der fire for paying consulting fees
to the far-right social media web-
site Gab. He has also been ac-
cused of using anti-Semitic dog
whistles to refer to Shapiro, who
is Jewish.
Mastriano attacked Shapiro for
sending his children to a private
Jewish school that he called <ex-
clusive [and] elite= and said it was
a sign of Shapiro9s <disdain for
people like us.=
Midterm Elections
A long-awaited rematch
In Georgia, two foes meet
again: Democrat Stacey Abrams
is trying to avenge her narrow
2018 loss to Republican Gov. Bri-
an Kemp. Abrams, who would be
the first Black female governor in
U.S. history, has spent the past
four years building a national
reputation as an advocate for
voter registration and access to
the ballot, based on her record
registering hundreds of thou-
sands of new voters in Georgia
and helping deliver the state for
Biden in 2020.
Kemp, meanwhile, developed a
reputation of his own for stand-
ing up to Trump and refusing to
bend to the lie that Biden9s nar-
row victory in Georgia was <sto-
len.= In the Republican primary
earlier this year, Kemp soundly
defeated former senator David
Perdue, a Trump-endorsed chal-
lenger, to win their party9s nomi-
nation.
Kemp has led Abrams by four
or five percentage points in most
polls, a wider margin than his
1.4-point squeaker of a victory in
2018. Abrams has countered that
polling does not capture the
young and newly registered vot-
ers who she believes will support
her. She will need a huge turnout
of Black voters to overcome her
deficit in the polls. Early voting,
which traditionally has shown
strong Black turnout, hit a record
this week for a midterm election.
Who wins these governor9s
races tells us more about
2024 than 2022
Florida will be watched as a
prelude to the next presidential
campaign: Gov. Ron DeSantis (R)
is facing Democrat Charlie Crist,
himself a former governor, and
polls indicate that DeSantis holds
a comfortable lead. In the four
years since he was narrowly elect-
ed governor, DeSantis has helped
transform Florida9s politics; reg-
istered Republicans in the state
outnumber Democrats by
300,000.
DeSantis has proved a prodi-
gious fundraiser. His political op-
eration has raised more than
$200 million in this election,
according to OpenSecrets, a rec-
EZ SU
ord for a sitting governor. Nation-
al Democrats, meanwhile, have
declined to plow significant re-
sources into helping Crist, who
has struggled to gain momentum.
If DeSantis performs well with
key constituencies, such as Lati-
no voters, it could bolster a possi-
ble run for president.
Some experts believe DeSantis
could be the first Republican gu-
bernatorial candidate in 20 years
to win Miami-Dade County, the
state9s most populous and a
majority-Hispanic jurisdiction
that has long been a Democratic
stronghold.
California also could be a
prelude to 2024: There is little
suspense about who will win the
governor9s race in California. The
only question is what it might
signal about the presidential am-
bitions of Gov. Gavin Newsom
(D), who is widely expected to
cruise to reelection.
Newsom, a former San Francis-
co mayor and a fixture in Califor-
nia politics, is seeking a second
term in a contest against Brian
Dahle, a Republican state senator
and farmer from Northern Cali-
fornia. In September 2021, News-
om defeated an effort to recall
him, a show of strength that all
but eliminated questions about
whether he could win reelection
this fall.
Newsom has cast himself as a
national leader for liberal causes,
eager to take on Republican coun-
terparts such as DeSantis. Earlier
this year, Newsom launched tele-
vision ads in Florida urging resi-
dents to move to California, say-
ing their freedoms were at risk.
He also paid for billboard adver-
tisements in conservative states
touting access to abortion in Cali-
fornia. Newsom is considered a
potential presidential candidate,
especially if Biden does not seek a
second term, though Newsom
committed in a recent debate to
serving four more years as gover-
nor if he won another term.
Where Democrats won four
years ago, Republicans see
opportunity
Democrats hope to capture
lightning twice in deep-red Kan-
sas: Gov. Laura Kelly (D) is at-
PHOTOS BY MELINA MARA/THE WASHINGTON POST
tempting to win reelection in a
predominantly Republican state
in a year that favors Republicans.
Kelly9s Republican opponent,
state Attorney General Derek
Schmidt, has attempted to make
the race a referendum on national
politics, linking Kelly to Biden at
every opportunity. Kelly, by con-
trast, has only talked <about Kan-
sas from April onward,= said Bob
Beatty, a political scientist at
Washburn University in Topeka.
She has also reminded Kansans of
the controversial tax-cutting ex-
periment implemented by former
Republican governor Sam Brown-
back and later reversed by law-
makers.
To overcome a political atmos-
phere that favors the GOP, Kelly
has tried to cultivate a brand of
independence. She has received
endorsements from former Re-
publican officeholders in Kansas
and one of her ads even included a
clip of her meeting with Trump.
Voters in Kansas surprised
pundits earlier this year when
they roundly rejected an antiabor-
tion amendment to the state con-
stitution. By contrast, few are
making firm predictions about
the governor9s race, which is con-
sidered a toss-up.
Battleground Wisconsin may
come down to the wire: Demo-
cratic Gov. Tony Evers, a former
state schools superintendent, is
seeking reelection in a tight con-
test against Republican Tim Mi-
chels, a construction executive.
Michels has made inroads with
voters by focusing on concerns
about inflation and public safety,
including the unrest that followed
a police shooting in Kenosha in
2020. He has also echoed false
allegations of voter fraud, saying
he was unsure whether the 2020
presidential election was stolen.
Michels wants to replace the
state9s bipartisan election com-
mission with a new body but has
provided few details.
The two candidates have
clashed over abortion. A total ban
on the procedure dating back to
1849 came into effect in Wiscon-
sin after the Supreme Court
struck down Roe v. Wade. Evers
tried to initiate a state referen-
dum on the ban but was blocked
A5
by the Republican-controlled leg-
islature. Michels has said that he
would support legislation to in-
clude exceptions for rape and
incest.
Nevada Republicans are opti-
mistic about their chances of
ejecting a Democratic incum-
bent: Gov. Steve Sisolak, a former
member of the powerful Clark
County Commission, was elected
in 2018, the first Democrat to win
the governorship in 20 years. His
Republican opponent in this
year9s election is Clark County
Sheriff Joe Lombardo. In their
previous roles, the two men
worked together closely.
Lombardo has hammered Si-
solak over rising prices and un-
employment during the acute
phase of the pandemic, which
devastated Nevada9s tourism-
driven economy. While Lombar-
do was endorsed by Trump, he
has waffled on how closely to
bind himself to the former presi-
dent. He has said he does not
think the 2020 presidential elec-
tion was stolen. During a debate
last month, Lombardo was asked
whether he considered Trump a
<great= president. Lombardo said
he would not use that adjective,
calling Trump a <sound= presi-
dent instead. Hours later, he put
out a statement reversing him-
self.
Nevada is a state in which
voters are less likely than in some
others to split their ballots be-
tween two parties, some strat-
egists say, meaning the governor9s
race could mirror the Senate race.
In Michigan, Democrats try
to fend off a Trump-backed chal-
lenger: Gov. Gretchen Whitmer
(D) is facing Republican Tudor
Dixon, a conservative commenta-
tor and first-time candidate, who
has been gaining on Whitmer in
the polls, though the Democratic
incumbent still leads and has a
massive cash advantage.
Michigan has been the scene of
one of the most intense battles
over abortion in the post-Roe era,
with Whitmer suing to prevent
the state9s 1931 abortion ban from
taking effect.
On Tuesday, Michigan voters
will also decide whether to en-
shrine a right to abortion in the
state constitution, a high-stakes
gambit likely to bring both sup-
porters and opponents of abor-
tion rights to the polls. Only two
other states 4 California and
Vermont 4 are weighing similar
ballot questions, and neither has
a competitive governor9s race.
Dixon has attempted to down-
play abortion as a factor in the
campaign, saying the issue is <off
the table= in the race to select the
next governor. Instead, she has
attacked Whitmer on rising pric-
es, pandemic-era restrictions and
education.
Whitmer, who is seen as a
potential presidential candidate,
has been playing up her work
addressing local concerns, such
as repairing roads and bridges.
Deep blue terrain
Republicans are eyeing
One of the biggest surprises
could be in New York: Once
considered an easy win for Demo-
crats, the race for governor has
tightened considerably and polls
show a shrinking lead for Hochul,
a native of the Buffalo area, in her
contest against Rep. Lee Zeldin
(R-N.Y.), a member of Congress
from Long Island.
Zeldin9s campaign has revolved
around a single issue: crime.
Hochul, meanwhile, has empha-
sized Zeldin9s closeness to Trump
and his antiabortion views.
Hochul was named governor in
2021, when her predecessor, An-
drew M. Cuomo, resigned in the
wake of a sexual harassment
scandal. She is the first female
governor of New York and is
hoping to make history as the
first woman elected to the post.
A loss by Hochul in a state
where Democratic voters out-
number Republicans by 2 to 1
would be a seismic shock. In the
closing days, both national par-
ties are spending money there,
and high-profile Democratic sur-
rogates are rushing in to help
Hochul.
Oregon could elect a Republi-
can governor for the first time in
40 years: Polls indicate that the
contest is a toss-up between Re-
publican Christine Drazan, a
state legislator, and Democrat
Tina Kotek, the speaker of the
state House of Representatives.
The closeness of the race in
deep-blue Oregon reflects an un-
usual confluence of factors. The
outgoing governor is Democrat
Kate Brown, who is term-limited
and unpopular. Kotek has worked
to distance herself from Brown
and promised to address con-
cerns over a homelessness crisis
and gun violence in Portland, the
state9s largest city. A third candi-
date, Betsy Johnson, a
Democrat-turned-independent
who is well funded, is winning up
to 10 percent of the vote, accord-
ing to recent polls, which compli-
cates Kotek9s path to victory.
A6
Fears of widespread election fraud ahead of midterms are wildly overblown
The 2022 midterm
elections are
underway, with
many Americans,
in particular
Republicans,
The Fact increasingly
Checker fearful that the
GLENN outcome will be
KESSLER affected or even
determined by
election fraud.
Thousands of poll watchers
have been dispatched. Drop
boxes are under surveillance.
Many GOP candidates in key
battleground states refuse to say
they will accept the results if they
receive fewer votes than their
opponents.
A Fox News poll conducted in
early October found that
55 percent of registered voters
were extremely or very concerned
about voter fraud. Among
Republicans, nearly three-
quarters said they were that
concerned.
These fears have been further
fanned by the constant refrain by
former president Donald Trump
and his allies that Joe Biden
triumphed in the 2020 race only
because he stole the election 4 a
lie that has been debunked over
and over.
Here9s the truth:
l By every single metric,
election fraud is rare in the
United States.
l Almost no elections in the
past 50 years have been flipped
because of documented voter
fraud, with occasional exceptions
at the local level.
There are logical reasons for
this.
The decentralized system of
American elections 4 in which
they are run by more than 8,000
local governments and almost
90 percent of Americans vote on
paper ballots, according to the
U.S. Election Assistance
Commission 4 make it
impossible to steal a nationwide
election through voter fraud.
It is true that election results
can be manipulated. Politicians,
for instance, might draw election
district boundaries to make it all
but certain that one political
party will win. Trump allies
sought to undermine the 2020
results with schemes involving
fake electors, an effort to block
Congress from affirming the
outcome.
But that9s different from ballot
GOP candidates in Michigan pick and choose from menu of Trump tactics
BY A SHLEY P ARKER
LIVONIA, Mich. 4 The slate of
MAGA candidates here in Michi-
gan paint their vision of an ap-
proaching apocalypse should
Democrats prevail in the mid-
terms 4 kids exposed to <57 gen-
ders,= <partial birth abortion up to
day of delivery, for any reason= and
a veritable smorgasbord of <woke
stuff.=
Many of these Republican
hopefuls 4 who include Tudor
Dixon for governor, John Gibbs for
a House seat and Matthew DePer-
no for attorney general 4 rose to
prominence on the strength of de-
bunked claims that the 2020 elec-
tion was rigged and an endorse-
ment from former president Don-
ald Trump.
Yet in the final days of the cam-
paign, as many of these candidates
trail in the polls, the Republican
roster is increasingly picking and
choosing the aspects of Trumpism
that best serve them. They are
mocking their opponents with dis-
missive nicknames and sarcastic
asides, and waging a fierce battle
over the nation9s culture, but they
are also often returning to core
issues such as the economy 4
rather than roadshow theatrics 4
that they think will help put them
over the top with the state9s voters.
In short, they are harnessing
some of the devices and hallmarks
of Trump9s <Make America Great
Again= brand, while also running
up against the limits of just how
far Trumpism can carry them in
this Midwestern swing state.
Trump narrowly flipped Michigan
in 2016, only to lose in 2020, and
the state will probably be crucial
for any 2024 presidential nominee
from either party.
Richard Czuba, an independent
pollster based in Michigan, said
the state9s MAGA contenders
largely have had to moderate their
pitch in the final weeks of the
campaign out of political necessi-
ty.
<First of all, they have to move
away from that because many of
them are losing and they9re losing
because Michigan is decided by
independent voters,= Czuba said.
<We9ve done polling on things like
the 2020 election; independent
voters have moved on, and they
don9t want to deal with anyone
re-litigating this. And as a result,
they9re stuck in this position
where if you embrace Trump too
completely, you9ll do great with
stuffing, illegal voting and other
types of behavior that would
directly affect the outcome at the
ballot box and have become the
obsession of many election
deniers.
Indeed, false claims about the
prevalence of voter fraud are
nothing new.
Long before Trump sought to
undercut the legitimacy of the
2020 election, Republican
officials at both the state and
federal levels often made dubious
claims of election fraud to justify
new and potentially burdensome
rules such as Voter ID laws. When
Trump won the presidency in
2016 but lost the popular vote by
more than 3 million votes, he
embraced false claims that the
margin was the result of
fraudulent votes cast by
undocumented immigrants.
Trump even assembled a voting
integrity commission to validate
such claims 4 but it was
disbanded after it uncovered no
evidence of fraudulent votes
being cast.
Let9s unpack the details.
Few cases of documented
fraud
Whenever experts and
reporters have tried to tally cases
of election fraud, the numbers
remain minuscule.
Nearly 160 million votes were
cast in the 2020 election. By the
popular vote count, Biden beat
Trump by 7 million votes. But the
presidency goes to the person
who wins the most electoral
college votes, which are awarded
to a state9s victor. That can
magnify the importance of votes
cast in states where the margins
are tight.
But an Associated Press review
of every potential case of voter
fraud in six battleground states
found fewer than 475 out of more
than 25 million votes cast in those
states 4 Arizona, Georgia,
Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania
and Wisconsin. The disputed
ballots amounted to just 0.15
percent of Biden9s victory margin.
In Pennsylvania, for instance,
26 votes were flagged by election
officials as potentially fraudulent
4 and Biden won there by more
than 80,000 votes. In one case, a
man went twice to the polls,
voting once on his own behalf
and once for his son.
The state with the most cases is
Arizona, with 198 potentially
the Republicans but horrible with
the independents.=
Gibbs, the Republican nominee
in Michigan9s 3rd Congressional
District, received Trump9s pri-
mary endorsement in part be-
cause the former president was
eager to defeat Rep. Peter Meijer,
the incumbent who was one of just
10 House Republicans who voted
to impeach Trump following the
Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol.
Gibbs has promoted debunked
Trumpist 2020 election claims, al-
leging that there were <anoma-
lies= that were <simply mathemat-
ically impossible.= Democrats wa-
gered that Gibbs would be easier
to beat on Nov. 8 than his rivals in
the Republican primary for the
House seat, with the party9s cam-
paign arm spending $425,000
during the primary on an ad to
boost him with the MAGA base,
describing him as <too conserva-
tive for Western Michigan.=
In an <empty chair debate= Sat-
urday night in Grand Rapids 4 a
Trump-style gimmick in which
Gibbs and DePerno <debated=
their absent Democratic oppo-
nents 4 Gibbs attempted some of
Trump9s signature moves such as
nicknames and insults. But his
delivery was so dry that he came
off more as the former software
engineer and Department of
Housing and Urban Development
employee he was than a MAGA
acolyte.
At one point, Gibbs offered his
personal <theory= on John Fetter-
man, the Democratic senatorial
candidate in Pennsylvania who re-
cently debated his Republican op-
ponent despite lingering difficulty
in processing spoken words as the
result of a stroke. <They put him
up there so Biden wouldn9t look so
bad,= Gibbs quipped, referring to
President Biden. <Think about
that for a moment, think about
how hard it has to be to look worse
than Biden.=
Gibbs has a history of inflam-
matory statements and tweets 4
including writings dating back to
college questioning the right of
women to vote, which he later
dismissed as the <over the top &
trolling= of a 19-year-old kid. But
in a brief interview last weekend,
he said that while he appreciated
Trump9s endorsement, he wanted
to be evaluated on his own merits.
<What I tell people right now is
I9m the one on the ballot and he9s
not on the ballot and other people
are not on the ballot,= Gibbs said.
EZ RE
fraudulent votes 4 such as a
woman suspected of sending in a
ballot for her dead mother 4 but
Biden still won the state by more
than 10,000 votes.
In the 1960 race between
Republican Richard M. Nixon
and Democrat John F. Kennedy,
10 states were decided by fewer
than 10,000 votes. Republicans
charged that Kennedy won
Illinois because of voter fraud
committed by the Democratic
Party in the state. But academic
research later found election
irregularities would not have
changed enough votes to alter the
outcome.
The conservative Heritage
Foundation maintains a
database, dating back to 1979,
that it says includes a <sampling=
of election-fraud cases brought by
prosecutors. <The database is up
to 1,384 proven cases and we are
following dozens of other
prosecutions that are ongoing,=
says Hans von Spakovsky, a
Heritage senior fellow. That9s an
average of 32 examples per year
that the group has documented.
Von Spakovsky says the
number would be much higher
except that local prosecutors are
not always interested in pursuing
election-fraud cases. He cited a
report from the conservative
Public Interest Legal Foundation
that found more than 150
referrals of potential criminal
violations of election law in 2020
had been ignored in Florida.
Still, these numbers 4 the
most comprehensive account of
U.S. election-fraud cases in the
past four decades 4 are just a
fraction of the 2 billion votes cast
in federal elections in that same
time period, according to a
calculation for The Fact Checker
by the Brennan Center for
Justice. In a critical review of the
Heritage numbers, the center
said the database <confirms that
widespread voter fraud does not
exist.=
Fraud involving mailed
ballots is rare
During the 2020 election,
many states expanded options for
voters, such as vote by mail,
because of the coronavirus
pandemic. Trump repeatedly said
those changes would lead to
fraud 4 and some states have
since added new restrictions on
mail voting.
But a Washington Post analysis
Salman Mawri, center, claps at a Republican rally Oct. 30 in Dearborn, Mich. When attorney general
candidate Matthew DePerno criticized the Democratic incumbent, the crowd chanted, <Lock her up!=
<I, John Gibbs, am on the ballot. So
I tell people, I9d love to share my
story, I9d love to have you listen to
it, and then vote for me based on
my background, my qualifica-
tions.=
Tom Barrett, an Iraq War com-
bat veteran and Republican state
senator, is facing incumbent Rep.
Elissa Slotkin (D) in a tight race for
Michigan9s newly drawn 7th Con-
gressional District and has tried to
appeal both to the MAGA base and
more moderate Republicans.
Barrett, for instance, has raised
concerns about the 2020 election,
yet he has not appeared at any
events in his state with DePerno,
Trump or Kristina Karamo, the
Republican secretary of state can-
didate who has pushed baseless
theories about the 2020 election.
Nor has Trump endorsed him.
Nonetheless, Rep. Liz Cheney
(R-Wyo.), appeared at an event in
Michigan for Slotkin on Tuesday
4 the first Democrat she has for-
mally endorsed 4 and a Cheney
spokesperson dismissed Barrett
as <an election denier.= Former
vice president Mike Pence cam-
paigned for Barrett in the state on
Friday.
And Dixon, the Republican gu-
bernatorial candidate, has wel-
comed Trump and his cadre to

points with the former president,

way and Trump9s eldest son, Don-
in 2020 of data collected by three
vote-by-mail states with help
from the nonprofit Electronic
Registration Information Center
(ERIC) found that officials
identified just 372 possible cases
of double voting or voting on
behalf of deceased people out of
about 14.6 million votes cast by
mail in the 2016 and 2018 general
elections, or 0.0025 percent.
Five states 4 Colorado,
Hawaii, Oregon, Utah and
Washington 4 hold elections
almost entirely by mail and have
reported virtually no fraud,
according to a Brookings
Institution analysis of the
Heritage database.
Voter impersonation is also
very rare, according to the data.
Writing in The Post in 2014,
Loyola Law School professor
Justin Levitt 4 now a White
House adviser 4 said he had
found only 31 credible cases of
people voting in the name of
someone else between 2000 and
2014, out of 1 billion votes cast.
Some cases of alleged voter
fraud turn out not to be
intentional. A Texas man, Hervis
Rogers, waited in line for more
than six hours to vote in 2020, not
realizing that he was not eligible
under state law because he was
on parole for a felony. Texas
Attorney General Ken Paxton
ordered his arrest, but a judge
dismissed the charges last month.
Fraud rarely affects the
outcome
In the past half-century, there
are only scattered examples in
which election fraud appeared to
have made a difference in the
outcome. They often are in races
that attract relatively few voters
and thus the impact of fraud
could be greater.
In a 2003 race for the
Democratic nomination for
mayor of East Chicago, Ind., for
instance, one candidate eked out
a 278-vote victory, out of more
than 8,000 votes cast, mostly on
the strength of absentee ballots.
But a judge determined the
evidence showed <pervasive
fraud, illegal conduct, and
violations of elections law= in the
gathering of those ballots. The
state Supreme Court ordered a
new election.
More recently, in 2018, North
Carolina ordered a new
congressional election after an
absentee-ballot scheme was
ald Trump Jr. 4 promoting some
hard-line MAGA positions while
also seeking to carve out her own
image.
Dixon does not support the
right to abortion, even in cases of
rape or incest, and has espoused
various baseless and debunked
theories, including questioning
the results of the 2020 election.
Responding to a Washington Post
survey earlier this year, Dixon also
refused to commit to accepting
the results of her election, instead
re-upping her unfounded attacks
on Jocelyn Benson, Michigan9s
current Democratic secretary of
state, over the previous election.
Yet over four campaign events
Oct. 30 in the Detroit suburbs,
Dixon did not focus on the past
election or her abortion stance.
Rather, she deployed a sharply
crafted riff on cultural issues and
parental rights, training most of
her attacks squarely on her oppo-
nent, Democratic Gov. Gretchen
Whitmer, whom she mocked for
<all the different leather jackets=
she wore while announcing covid-
19 safety measures in 2020.
At times, Dixon came across as
the <cool mom= 4 the one making
wry quips on the sidelines of a
soccer game or entertaining the
other parents with her sarcastic
asides at back-to-school night.
During a recent debate with
Whitmer, after Dixon raised con-
cerns about sexually graphic

discovered in one county that
helped to narrowly tip the
election to the Republican.
Suspicions rose after 61 percent
of the vote-by-mail ballots in the
county were cast for the
Republican candidate, despite
the fact that only 16 percent of
them were registered
Republicans.
The most prominent case of a
major race possibly being decided
by election fraud took place 75
years ago. In 1948, Lyndon B.
Johnson, then a member of
Congress, won a Democratic U.S.
Senate primary runoff against
former governor Coke Stevenson
by just 87 votes. Historian Robert
A. Caro documented in 1990 that
Johnson gained hundreds of
votes through fraud and
malfeasance 4 a victory that
eventually took Johnson to the
presidency.
2020 fraud claims were
debunked
Since losing the election,
Trump has held rallies across the
country where he devotes a long
section of his speech to repeating
debunked claims about the
election. Trump9s technique has
been to overwhelm his listeners
with details 4 usually irrelevant
details 4 to leave an impression
of an election system that is
highly suspicious and fraudulent.
But Trump ignores that at least
86 judges, including Trump
appointees, rejected at least one
post-election lawsuit filed by
Trump or his supporters and that
they consistently found there was
no substantive evidence to
support claims of fraud and
irregularities. <Calling an election
unfair does not make it so,= wrote
Trump federal appeals court
nominee Stephanos Bibas in one
opinion. <Charges require
specific allegations and then
proof. We have neither here.=
Then audit after audit pushed
by Trump9s supporters in many
battleground states again have
failed to show that fraudulent
votes were cast.
In Arizona, for instance, a
Republican-commissioned
review of nearly 2.1 million
ballots in Arizona9s largest county
actually added to the margin of
Biden9s narrow victory in the
state. Biden gained 99 votes and
Trump lost 261 votes. <Truth is
truth and numbers are numbers,=

books in schools, Whitmer asked
her, <Do you really think books are
more dangerous than guns?= Re-
counting the exchange, Dixon re-
called, <And I9m like, 8How about
we don9t choose what9s dangerous
or not? We just fix all the danger-
ous things.9 =
Later, speaking of her school
safety plan, which would included
armed guards and a single entry
point at schools, Dixon added, to
laughter and applause, <And I
thought to myself, do you think
she tells the state police to blow
bubbles at people that are coming
at her? Or do they get bullets?=
In a brief interview, asked about
how she plans to appeal to both
the MAGA base and more moder-
ate voters in the final days, Dixon
said her focus was on parents and
people struggling in the current
economic climate.
<I really think that the message
to parents is effective,= she said.
<As you9ve heard, parents across
the state have been crushed by
having schools closed and then
not having a plan to get them back
on track. So really appealing to
parents and then appealing to
folks about making sure that we
are no longer in the top 10 states in
the nation for taxes on the middle
class.=
She added: <I9m here to take
care of everybody in this state.=

Senate president who
commissioned the vote review.
Beyond ground-level claims
about dead voters and absentee
ballot fraud, Trump and his allies
have also sought to bolster their
case by citing statistical
anomalies that they say show the
election was stolen. For instance,
they have pointed to suspiciously
high turnout in Democratic
strongholds, and the failure of
Biden to win <bellwether
counties= 4 counties that
supposedly vote in alignment
with the final result.
In a report for the Proceedings
of the National Academy of
Sciences (PNAS), a peer-reviewed
journal of the National Academy
of Sciences, a trio of political
scientists in 2021 debunked every
one of these statistical claims.
<The common logic behind
these claims is that, if the election
were fairly conducted, some
feature of the observed 2020
election result would be unlikely
or impossible. In each case, we
find that the purportedly
anomalous fact is either not a fact
or not anomalous,= wrote Justin
Grimmer of Stanford University9s
Hoover Institution, Andrew C.
Eggers of the University of
Chicago and Haritz Garro of
Stanford.
For instance, statistical
analysis showed that bellwether
counties in fact had <no special
prognostic value= and that
Biden9s performance was not
much different from the 2016
Democratic presidential
candidate, Hillary Clinton.
As for claims of high turnout in
counties where Republicans
made fraud accusations, it turns
out the differences were small or
insignificant. <There is no
evidence that turnout was
unusually high in the suspicious
counties, let alone that turnout
was inflated in these counties by
fraud,= they wrote.
Another frequent claim was
that Biden outperformed
expectations in counties that
used Dominion voting machines,
suggesting votes had been
switched, as Trump9s legal team
had claimed. Again, that proved
to be false: <Using the most
rigorous specifications, we find
no evidence that Biden
outperformed expectations in
counties where Dominion
machines were used,= the authors
wrote.
message in the final weeks of the
campaign.
<I9ve really been struck with
how she9s trying to sound like John
Engler rather than Donald
Trump,= he said, referring to the
practical and policy-minded for-
mer Republican governor of Mich-
igan. <It9s a necessary argument.
She can9t simply talk about
Trumpism when independents
will completely abandon her.=
Other Republican candidates
in Michigan, however, have stuck
to a harder line. DePerno, the at-
torney general candidate, said Sat-
urday in his <empty chair debate=
that his Democratic opponent,
Michigan Attorney General Dana
Nessel, <wants to put a drag queen
in every school.=
DePerno, who is polling dead
even with Nessel, punctuated his
remarks with a laundry list of
Trump-style promises: <There will
be no covid-mandated vaccines
for your children. We will elimi-
nate the teaching of radical criti-
cal race theory across this state.
We will restore parental rights. We
will fix our education system. And
we will bring businesses back to
this state.=
He concluded by warning that
the Democrats were <radical
Marxists who want to transform
our country,= and by conjuring
Trump9s well-honed sense of vic-
timization. <They want to silence
you, they want to de-platform you,
they want de-bank you,= he said.
<If that doesn9t work, they want to
perpetually investigate you.=
When DePerno reprised the
drag queen attack at a Republican
rally Oct. 30 in Dearborn, the
crowd responded with the anti-
Hillary Clinton chant Trump pop-
ularized in 2016: <Lock her up!
Lock her up!=
A smattering of voters arrived
at the various Republican events
sporting MAGA paraphernalia,
but many said they were not inter-
ested in talking about the former
president right now, and that their
vote hinges on how local candi-
dates address concerns immedi-
ate to their lives.
Al Montie, 74, of Trenton, Mich.,
said he plans to vote Republican
<pretty much right on down the
ticket, from school board,= in large
part because he9s concerned about
both <food and fuel= prices and
shortages.
<As for Trump,= Montie said,
<that9s an issue for another day. It9s
all about the local issues.=

An endangered Pennsylvania Democrat thinks her brand can save her seat
bethlehem, pa.
@PKCapitol 4 In late
PAUL KANE October, Rep.
Susan Wild (D)
ran into an older
couple on the streets here, and
they instantly began talking
about her opponent9s
commercials that are, well, less
than flattering.
<We9re talking about the one
that has the really ugly picture
of you,= the older man said,
explaining that they actually
supported her and, now that
they had met her, she was much
more attractive than that
terrible ad made her look. <They
shouldn9t be allowed to use it,=
he told Wild.
Wild recalled that
conversation in an interview
inside her campaign
headquarters later that day, in
part to bemoan today9s politics
of dark money groups but, more
important, to illustrate what she
hopes will be her saving grace in
this toss-up race: her identity as
an approachable, accessible and
likable person.
Marketers and consultants
would call it her <brand,= but it9s
a general sense of relatability
that she hopes will make the
difference, particularly in a race
against an opponent whose
personal fortune might
approach $50 million.
<I honestly believe that9s why
I9ll win,= she said. <The hits
aren9t sticking, because people
know me too well.=
That remains to be seen; Wild
and Republican Lisa Scheller
are locked in a toss-up race,
according to every independent
handicapper out there. Outside
GOP groups have poured
millions upon millions of dollars
into the district. President Biden
won the district, anchored by
old steel towns 60 to 70 miles
north of Philadelphia, by six-
tenths of a percentage point in
the 2020 election.
But Wild9s race will be a test
case for whether a lawmaker9s
personal brand can help
overcome the toughest of
political environments. Unlike
many competitive House races,
this battle is not highly focused
on abortion rights: Wild prefers
to focus on Scheller9s business
dealings, and Scheller has not
adopted the most extreme
antiabortion views.
Other races here, particularly
for Senate and governor, are
testing whether there is a
particular type of personal
identity that best fits the
moment in a key battleground
4 the rugged outsider posture
or the experienced, steady hand.
Democratic and Republican
advisers alike think that the
incumbent lawmakers who are
in the most danger are those
who have pretty generic profiles,
not having carved out identities
of their own. That leaves them
most vulnerable to the political
winds, which are blowing
against Democrats as inflation
remains at 40-year highs.
In Senate races, three
Democrats with very distinct
brands have remained
competitive: Sens. Mark Kelly
(D-Ariz.), an astronaut, and
Raphael G. Warnock (D-Ga.), a
minister at Atlanta9s most
prominent church, along with
Lt. Gov. John Fetterman (D-Pa.),
whose tall frame, bald head and
penchant for wearing hoodies
give him an outsider image.
In past political waves, some
lawmakers survived because
they had built just enough of a
brand.
In 2006, as Democrats swept
to power, Rep. Chris Shays
(Conn.) narrowly won an 11th
term and went on to serve as the
only House Republican from
New England, and in 2010, as
Republicans charged back to the
majority, Rep. Gerald E.
Connolly (D-Va.) survived by less
than half a percentage point.
Shays had been a moderate
whose ideology fit his district
and had spent decades fighting
political corruption. Connolly
had spent 13 years on the
Fairfax County Board of
Supervisors, including five as its
chairman, becoming a popular
local official before moving up
to Congress.
Sometimes, those narrow
wins lead to long-term careers:
Connolly has locked down his
Northern Virginia district. But
Shays lost in 2008 as Barack
Obama won the district by more
than 20 percentage points.
Wild, 65, is hoping for a long
tenure like Connolly9s.
A member of the New
Democrat Coalition, she is a
mainstream liberal with a
moderate sensibility. Born on a
Rep. Susan Wild (D-Pa.) during an April event in Bangor, Pa. Wild is locked in a toss-up race against
multimillionaire Republican Lisa Scheller; outside GOP groups have spent millions on attack ads.
U.S. Air Force base in Germany,
Wild grew up moving around
the globe with each new
assignment for her father, a
trying time that taught her how
to make friends and fit in.
<I had to reinvent myself
every two years. It was horrible
as a kid, I will just tell you,= she
said.
She moved to the Lehigh
Valley 35 years ago, expecting to
stay for a couple of years. But
she settled in and became a
partner at an Allentown law
firm. After a divorce, she
reunited with her life partner,
Kerry Acker, and became
politically active, losing a county
commission race and then being
appointed as Allentown
solicitor.
She upset a well-known
county prosecutor in 2018 for
the Democratic nomination to
replace the retiring moderate
GOP incumbent, Rep. Charlie
Dent, and reclaimed the seat as
part of the rush for Democratic
women in an anti-Trump
backlash.
That joy turned to deep
despair Memorial Day weekend
2019, when Acker took his life
and Wild went into what she
called <a state of shock.= She has
made mental health one of her
top policy priorities, learning,
when she talks about it with
audiences, just how many others
struggle.
<It was entirely
circumstantial because of what
was going on in my own life and
losing my life partner. Little did
I know how much that would
resonate with people here,= she
said.
Scheller, the chief executive of
an aluminum manufacturing
company, came surprisingly
close to defeating Wild in 2020
as the more exurban and rural
outer portions of the district
surged toward Trump. She
quickly launched a bid for a
rematch and has been the
beneficiary of nearly $11 million
from outside Republican groups
running attack ads against Wild.
They have focused
relentlessly on Biden and House
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.),
along with high inflation, while
some ads highlight a complex
legal case that Wild was
involved in early this century
regarding abuse allegations at a
psychiatric facility.
Wild has countered by
MARK MAKELA FOR THE WASHINGTON POST
highlighting Scheller9s wealth
amid allegations of setting up
plants in China without
supporting enough local jobs.
This district9s voters have
trended toward moderate
personalities even more than
moderate ideologies. Sen.
Patrick J. Toomey (R-Pa.), who is
retiring, first won a House seat
here in 1998, campaigning as
more of a thoughtful pragmatist
than his economic conservative
background suggested.
That9s why Wild believes her
identity as someone who
connects with everyday people,
small-business types, can
overcome the political climate.
<I think you9re effing
amazing,= Danielle Mulligan
Botrus, the owner of the Gem
Shop in this town9s business
district, told Wild during a
small-business tour. <A lot of
times, I feel like Republicans are
known to be small-business
advocates. I think that9s a crock
of crap. You were there for us
when covid shut us down,
helping us get grants and
actually taking phone calls.=
The top of Pennsylvania9s
ticket has two very different
Democrats: Fetterman as the
rugged outsider and state
Attorney General Joshua
Shapiro, a polished law-and-
order type who has climbed the
ranks for 25 years from
congressional chief of staff to
county commissioner and now
gubernatorial nominee.
Shapiro has assumed a solid
lead in his race against an
underfunded, Trump-loving
state legislator, while Fetterman
is struggling to hang on against
celebrity TV doctor Mehmet Oz.
Pennsylvania, like this
district, has long favored the
moderate personalities of Sen.
Robert P. Casey Jr. (D) and
former governor Tom Ridge (R).
Fetterman has placed a bet that
his anti-establishment posture
is right for this moment, and
Wild has appreciated
Fetterman9s ability to tap into
some voting blocs where
Shapiro could never be warmly
received.
<They9re each so unique, and
yet that combination is kind of
really a Pennsylvania thing,=
Wild said.
Her own disposition more
closely aligns with Shapiro9s,
and while some Democrats have
run away from Biden, Wild
brought first lady Jill Biden to a
rally with nearly 1,000
supporters Wednesday.
Wild has become a prolific
fundraiser, hauling in more than
$6 million for this campaign,
while Scheller donated more
than $2 million to her campaign
but still took in about
$1.5 million less than the
incumbent.
But those outside groups and
their ads 4 like the one with the
<ugly= picture 4 have forced
Wild to spend even more time
raising money. That means less
time at town halls, fewer
business walks in Bethlehem,
not enough campaign rallies.
Those things are supposed to
be Wild9s political bread and
butter, activities in which she
hones her brand and builds up
her defenses. If things go bad
Tuesday, she fears it will because
she was forced into spending
less time meeting voters and
more time raising money.
<There9s this constant influx
of dark money, which requires
all of us, not just me, to just
spend endless amounts of time
dialing for dollars,= she said.

Robin Mann fumbled for words
to describe the enormity of the
tragedy that had befallen his fam-

nephew as <good kids.=
<What can you say?= Mann said.
<They were full of life.=
The sheriff9s office said that

Democratic candidate.
A similarly big difference
shows up based on educational
levels, with 57 percent of likely
voters without a college degree
favoring Republicans and 58 per-
cent of those with degrees sup-
porting Democrats. By more than
2 to 1, White voters without col-
lege degrees favor Republicans
while a majority of White voters
with degrees (55 percent) support
Democrats.
Voters9 intentions are little
changed from a September poll.
They are less positive for Republi-
cans than earlier in the year, be-
fore the Supreme Court over-
turned Roe v. Wade and elevated
abortion rights as a central issue
in the midterm campaigns.
One illustration of the divided
U.S. electorate is the narrow split
on the question of which party
voters trust to cope with the main
problems the country faces in
coming years. On this, 42 percent
say they trust Republicans, 40
percent the Democrats.
But on specific issues, each par-
ty9s advantages stand out. Among
registered voters, Republicans
hold a 14-point advantage on the
economy, a 12-point advantage on
inflation and rising prices
(though that gap has declined
since September) and a 20-point
advantage on crime. Democrats
have a 13-point advantage on
abortion and a 19-point advan-
tage on climate change.

The two parties are also about

and schools, again with large par-

Republicans have sought to
make crime a major issue this
year, and their advantage on the
issue has increased significantly.
In the summer of 2021, the two
parties were rated equally in
terms of which was more trusted
to handle crime. By last spring,
the GOP edge had jumped to a
double-digit advantage, and it has
increased slightly since then.
When asked which of the eight
issues will be one of the single
most important in influencing
their vote, the economy was cited
by 26 percent of likely voters,
abortion by 22 percent, inflation
and threats to democracy each by
21 percent. The 26 percent of
voters who ranked the economy
as one of the most important
factors in their vote favor Repub-

Democrats by 54 points.
Twice as many Republican like-

with Sen. Joe Manchin III
(D-W.Va.), who blasted the presi-
dent for comments on one of his
last campaign stops suggesting
that coal plants in the United
States would be shut down as the
country shifts to wind and solar
power.
<President Biden9s comments
are not only divorced from reality,
they ignore the severe economic
pain the American people are feel-
ing because of rising energy costs,=
Manchin said in a statement Sat-
urday. <Comments like these are
the reason the American people
are losing trust in President
Biden.=
At the Trump rally, Mastriano
referenced Biden9s comment. <Did
you see Sleepy Joe wants to close
down our coal plants?= he said to
boos.
The White House suggested
that Biden9s comments had been
taken out of context and miscon-
strued.
<The President9s remarks yes-
terday have been twisted to sug-
gest a meaning that was not in-
tended; he regrets it if anyone
hearing these remarks took of-
fense,= White House press secre-
tary Karine Jean-Pierre said in a
statement.
Biden did not reference the re-
mark in his speech, focusing on
defending his record and touting
the Democratic candidates who
joined him. In contrast to the Sen-
ate contest, Shapiro has run com-
fortably ahead of Mastriano in the
gubernatorial contest, polls show,
as many independents and some
Republicans reject Mastriano9s
far-right extremism and espousal
of Christian nationalist views.
Many GOP leaders have stayed
away from Mastriano9s campaign,
often isolating it from much of the
party establishment.
The Senate race between Oz
and Fetterman has tightened in
recent weeks, polls show, as the
two head into the final days of a
hard-fought campaign that has of-
ten focused more on personal at-
tacks than policy ideas. Fetterman
has spent most of the race trying to
depict Oz as an out-of-touch celeb-
rity who has lived outside Pennsyl-
vania. Oz has sought to cast Fetter-
man as soft on crime and has
accused his rival of being insuffi-
ciently transparent about his
health after suffering a stroke in
May.

made a dramatic entrance down
the gangway and walked onto the
stage in a MAGA cap.
<There9s a big crowd,= he
crowed. He later took an inaccu-
rate swipe at the Democrats9 turn-
out, and baselessly suggested their
votes would be fraudulent. <They
had a little rally here, nobody
showed up for their rally,= he said.
<And then they9ll say how many

The rowdy crowd frequently in-
terrupted Trump with chants of

referring to Hillary Clinton, <Lock

was the second of four rallies for

critical to Trump9s electoral path

paigns and would be again in 2024

nounce his candidacy shortly after
the midterms.

Oz won the GOP primary with
the help of Trump9s endorsement,
while Mastriano won Trump9s
support at the end of the primary,
as it appeared he was poised for
victory. Mastriano has been un-
wavering in his commitment to

touting his administration9s pol-
icies and Democratic-passed bills,
including student debt relief, the
$700 billion Inflation Reduction
Act and a domestic semiconduc-

The president has also used all
of his stops to lambaste Republi-
cans for proposals that would
slash or curb Social Security and
Medicare and delivered an un-

that GOP candidates who refuse to

largely visited safely Democratic
states including New Mexico, Cali-

also visited Florida, where Repub-
lican statewide candidates hold

came together as a result of Biden
advisers requesting that Obama
come for a joint appearance, ac-
cording to those familiar with the
planning, speaking on the condi-
tion of anonymity to discuss inter-
nal dynamics.
Advisers to both men said they
are in frequent touch and the
Obama staff clears its events with
Biden9s so they are in close coordi-
nation.
The current dynamic between
the two men is in some ways a role
reversal from when Obama had to
take a back seat during his party9s
midterms in 2010 after the pas-
sage of the Affordable Care Act
brought down his approval rat-
ings. Biden was the sought-after
surrogate, as he was in 2018, when
Trump was president and Demo-
crats retook control of the House.
Biden9s low approval ratings 4
hovering at about 43 percent, ac-
cording to a Washington Post aver-
age of polls 4 have been a drag on
many Democratic candidates,
who have sought to keep their
distance from Biden in their cam-
paigns9 final stretch.
Pennsylvania has been the ex-
ception: Biden, a native Pennsyl-
vanian and longtime senator for
neighboring Delaware, has visited
the state several times since kick-
ing off the campaign season at the
end of August, including for a
speech on the future of democracy
he held on Sept. 1. Biden has also
appeared with Fetterman on a
handful of occasions, making him
one of the few Democrats running
on purple terrain willing to appear
with the president.
Biden often refers to his up-
bringing in Scranton as evidence
of his blue-collar roots and points
to the state being critical to his
2020 win. If Biden chooses to run
again in 2024 4 which he has said
he plans to do 4 there is broad
agreement across both parties
that Pennsylvania would again be
key to his path to a second term.
Biden grew impassioned at the
end of his speech. <I9ve traveled
this country and seen this great
nation & we are good people. I
know this. There9s no quit in John
Fetterman. There9s no quit in
Pennsylvania. There is no quit in
America. & We are the United
States of America!= he said with a
raised voice.

Midterm Elections
This year, Twitter and Facebook
gave GOP election deniers a pass
BY N AOMI N IX,
J EREMY B . M ERRILL
AND H AYDEN G ODFREY
Mark Finchem, the Republican
candidate seeking to oversee Ari-
zona9s election system as that
state9s secretary of state, made a
last-minute fundraising pitch on
Wednesday using one of his favor-
ite talking points: the looming
threat of voter fraud.
Finchem falsely argued on
Facebook and Twitter that his
Democratic opponent, Adrian
Fontes, is a member of the Chinese
Communist Party and a <Cartel
criminal= who has <rigged elec-
tions before.=
It wasn9t the first time Finchem
spread unfounded election-rig-
ging conspiracy theories on social
media. In September, Finchem
misleadingly posted that Fontes
was being <bankrolled= by billion-
aire George Soros and former New
York Mayor Mike Bloomberg and
they want to <RIG our elections &
our voter rolls.=
For years, Facebook and Twitter
have pledged to fight falsehoods
that could confuse users about
America9s electoral system by tag-
ging questionable posts with accu-
rate information about voting and
removing rule-breaking misinfor-
mation. But this electoral cycle, at
least 26 candidates have posted
inaccurate election claims since
April, but the platforms have done
virtually nothing to refute them,
according to a Washington Post
review of the companies9 misin-
formation labeling practices.
That9s in contrast to the 2020
election cycle, when Facebook and
Twitter collectively added labels to
scores of election-related posts
from Donald Trump that pointed
readers to authoritative informa-
tion about the electoral process or
alerted readers that the informa-
tion was misleading. Facebook la-
beled at least 506 Trump posts
between Jan. 1, 2020, and Jan. 6,
2021, according to a study from
the left-leaning Media Matters for
America, and Twitter also added
labels to Trump9s tweets question-
ing the validity of the election or
voting process.
But such labels have been non-
existent this election cycle, the
Post review showed, when hun-
dreds of congressional seats as
well as thousands of state and
local positions are being decided.
In August, Facebook said it had
received feedback from users that
its labels promoting reliable infor-
mation were so overused that the
company had decided if they did
use labels it would be in a more
<targeted and strategic way.= Late
last year, Twitter started experi-
menting with newly designed mis-
information labels that the com-
pany says led to decreases in re-
plies, retweets and likes of false-
hoods and an increase in people
clicking through to the debunking
content.
Finchem is not the only GOP
candidate to argue on social media
that next week9s midterm elec-
tions are already or could be
rigged. Sandy Smith, the GOP
nominee for a competitive U.S.
House seat in northeastern North
Carolina, responded to a state su-
preme court ruling on election
rules with a Facebook post saying
<Cheaters are going to cheat. If
lefties aren9t cheating, they ain9t
trying.= The post did not receive a
label.
The Post reviewed thousands of
social media posts on Twitter,
Facebook and other, smaller plat-
forms from nearly 300 GOP elect-
ed officials and candidates to eval-
uate how they have been portray-
ing the upcoming vote over the
past six months and the platforms9
reaction to that. The Post9s review
relied on a previous Post analysis
from October that examined every
Republican running for House,
Senate or key statewide offices to
see whether they had challenged
or refused to accept the results of
the 2020 election.
That review found 17 candi-
dates claiming that the 2022 elec-
tion will be rigged or that aspects
of the voting system are rigged,
fraudulent or corrupt. Those
claims were made in 40 posts on
Facebook and Twitter. Those posts
were left unchallenged by the so-
cial media companies, with no la-
beling from Facebook and Twitter,
the review found.
The Post9s analysis also found
that 18 election-denying GOP can-
didates recently claimed the 2020
election was rigged or that Presi-
dent Biden is illegitimate at least
52 times on these platforms. Those
posts too went unchallenged by
the social media companies, the
review found.
That9s far different from 2020
and 2021, when the platforms reg-
ularly put labels on posts to alert
readers that the content might be
misleading or pointing users to
accurate information about the

voting process.
Twitter has acknowledged
ramping down its enforcement of
its policies barring lies about the
outcome of an election between
March 2021 and August 2022, and
its has said it activates its civic
integrity policy around 90 days
out before Election Day. In recent
days, Twitter has rolled out more
widely a labeling tool run by its
users, not its staff.
But it remains an open question
how Elon Musk9s new ownership
of Twitter will affect that. Musk
once promised to loosen content
moderation practices and rein-
state former president Donald
Trump9s account and it9s uncertain
how the site will police election
rigging claims in the wake of the
massive layoff of Twitter person-
nel that happened Friday.
Earlier in the week, Musk
promised civil rights groups and
other activists that Twitter would
continue implementing its cur-
rent election integrity practices
until the midterms were over. But
there are signs that Musk also
might be willing to intervene in
Twitter9s decisions regarding
sanctions to individual candi-
dates.
After The Post asked Twitter
about some of Finchem9s election-
fraud related tweets, the social
media giant appeared to have re-
stricted his ability to post, accord-
ing to his comments on Twitter.
On Monday evening, Musk re-
sponded to a Newsmax contribu-
tor9s tweet about the restrictions
by saying he was <looking into it.=
Later that evening, Finchem was
tweeting again and thanking
Musk <for stopping the commie
who suspended me from Twitter a
week before the election.=
It9s unclear why Finchem9s ac-
count was restricted or restored.
Twitter didn9t respond to repeated
requests for comment. Neither
Finchem, Smith nor Dixon re-
sponded to The Post9s requests for
comment.
In a statement, Andy Stone, a
spokesman for Facebook9s parent
company Meta, did not address
directly Facebook9s policy of plac-
ing labels on posts with mislead-
ing election information. He said
many of the posts that The Post
asked about were <examples of
standard political content like
candidates promoting their cam-
paign websites, posing questions
in congressional hearings or re-
acting to court decisions.= He also
criticized The Post for reviewing
only misinformation communi-
cated by text.
<Experts have identified video
as a prime vector for problematic
election content, yet the Washing-
ton Post intentionally excluded
YouTube and TikTok from its re-
view,= he said in the statement.
The social media platforms9
lack of labels on misleading and
questionable assertions this year
emerges amid a longtime battle
over how social media platforms
should referee the political speech
of world leaders.
Under the company9s rules,
Facebook doesn9t prohibit posts
that allege widespread voter
fraud, in contrast to Twitter, which
bans false claims that could <un-
dermine public confidence in an
election= including lies about the
outcome of the 2020 presidential
election.
Both companies ban distor-
tions about how, when or where to
vote 4 which it considers a form of
voter suppression. Both compa-
nies also promote accurate facts
about the election in information
hubs on their social networks.
Facebook, for instance, has a vot-
ing information center that pro-
motes links to government web-
sites instructing users about how
to register to vote. Twitter
launched hubs promoting real-
time election information from
state election officials and news
outlets.
Misinformation experts say,
however, there9s only so much the
platforms can do with so many

election. <In reality, this is a prob-
lem being caused by political
elites,= said Joshua Tucker, a pro-
fessor at New York University.
The Post9s review showed the
problem of misleading informa-
tion is deep. In Michigan, Kristina
Karamo, the Republican nominee
for Michigan secretary of state,
has accused the state9s chief elec-
tion administrator Jocelyn Ben-
son on Facebook of refusing to
remove thousands of dead voters
from Michigan9s voter rolls.
Kim Crockett, the Republican
nominee for Minnesota9s secre-
tary of state, posted to Facebook
and Twitter in September that her
opponent9s opposition to voter ID
rules <is that voter fraud has be-
come part of his electoral strat-
egy.= (Neither she nor Karamo re-
sponded to The Post9s requests for
comment.)
Finchem, for his part, has fo-
cused on Arizona9s participation
in ERIC 4 a voter database meant
to remove voters who9ve moved
out of state. Finchem wrote, <Our
voter rolls are still corrupted by
the Soros-backed ERIC system= on
Twitter in September. (Fact-check-
ers at PolitiFact have said that
there is no link between ERIC and
Soros.)
In total, The Post9s review found
82 posts on Twitter and Facebook
from 28 candidates calling atten-
tion to granular election adminis-
tration issues. None had a label.
NYU9s Tucker said he sympa-
thizes with the platforms over the
complexity of their decisions on
when to flag a statement. <When
somebody says I9m quite con-
cerned about the possibility of
fraud in this election, that9s not a
false statement,= Tucker said. <It9s
hard to say that is something that
should be taken down. Yet the
problem is the cumulative effect of
people saying that again and
again.=
And the denials of the result of
the 2020 election remain ram-
pant.
The Post9s review found 190
posts on Facebook and Twitter
from 47 candidates citing Dinesh
D9Souza9s <2000 Mules= film,
which claims to show so-called
mules turning in absentee ballots
for nonfamily members in viola-
tion of state rules, implying that
this should invalidate Biden9s elec-

was true, but at the time the film
was released last spring, Twitter
had stopped enforcing its policies
against election denial.
Mark Alford, the Republican
candidate for U.S. Congress in
Missouri, posted in a Facebook
invitation to a watch party at his
campaign office that the film <ex-
poses widespread, coordinated
voter fraud in the 2020 election,
sufficient to change the overall
outcome,= a claim that is false. No
label was applied.
<Should they be moderating all
posts that mention the movie?
That9s a bridge too far,= said Shan-
non McGregor, a communications
professor at the University of
North Carolina. <But, at least la-
beling them would be a step in the
right direction.=
The review also found that the
phrase <election integrity= has be-
come a popular, if vague, buzz-
word among others, showing up in
hundreds of posts from at least 80
candidates.
For instance, John Moolenaar
(R), a Michigan congressman
seeking reelection, includes it in a
laundry list of campaign promises
alongside <the right to life, the
Second Amendment,= and keep-
ing taxes low in a July Facebook
post. Burt Jones, the Republican
nominee for lieutenant governor
of Georgia, also promised to <re-
store election integrity= alongside
strengthening public safety, im-
proving education and eliminat-
ing the state9s income tax in a May
post before his primary.
McGregor says this is a <marker

Midterm Elections

In Arizona, Turning Point network seeks to purge the GOP9s old guard
ARIZONA FROM A1

the presidency.
But the Republican House
speaker, Rusty Bowers, ultimate-
ly balked at redrawing the state9s
map to seize partisan advantage.
As the pair9s political differences
grew, the activist, who was half
the speaker9s age, vowed revenge.
<Rusty, I will be working
toward ensuring you do not win
your election in 2022,= Bowyer
warned in a March text message
obtained by The Washington
Post. <I appreciate your service, I
will do whatever it takes to en-
sure you are retired.=
Soon, the state legislator faced
a rush of ridicule on social media
and in negative ads as Turning
Point9s political arm launched a
campaign to <Replace RINO

mary for an open state Senate
seat in August to a Turning Point-
backed Republican who called
the 2020 election a <conspiracy
headed up by the Devil himself.=
The takedown of one of the
most powerful Republicans in the
state illustrates the rise of Turn-
ing Point USA and its network of
affiliates, which have pushed be-
yond their core mission of ener-
gizing college conservatives to
turn Arizona into a laboratory for
a new brand of Republican orga-
nizing. The decade-old nonprofit
organization has helped trans-
form the state GOP, seeking to
elevate acolytes of former presi-
dent Donald Trump and purge
old-guard centrists who led in the
tradition of the late Republican
Sen. John McCain.

revealed that he was running a
deceptive online operation for
Turning Point9s political arm in
which teenagers peppered the
internet with pro-Trump messag-
ing, some using fake accounts.
Hoffman defended the practice at
the time.
Over the years, Hoffman has
been an administrator for the
Facebook pages of Turning Point,
Kirk and Trump Jr., according to
a person familiar with the setup.
Hoffman did not dispute the de-
tails of his social media work for
Trump Jr. or Turning Point, say-
ing that he was <happy to consult
with the organization.=
That fall, Hoffman won a race
for the Arizona House, giving
Turning Point an ally in the state-
house.
Turning Point was no longer on
the GOP9s fringes. It was at the
party9s center.
8Repercussions could be big9
In 2020, Turning Point told
donors its task was activating
young voters, registering thou-
sands to vote and delivering Ari-
zona and other swing states to
Trump, according to documents
obtained by The Post.
The group aimed to capitalize
on the electorate9s intensifying
distrust of government, media
and political parties, the docu-
ments show. Opportunities to do
so expanded with the onset of the
coronavirus pandemic.
Kirk argued that the <China

Trump9s promised wall on the
southern border, and text mes-
sages sent by Turning Point Ac-
tion falsely claimed that the gov-
ernment was <sending goons
DOOR-TO-DOOR to make you

When Trump resumed holding
large campaign events, Turning
Point Action9s Students for Trump
helped pack Phoenix9s Dream
City Church for a June 2020 rally.
Outside, police in riot gear
clashed with protesters. Inside,
the megachurch9s cavernous au-
ditorium offered refuge from
mask mandates.
Ahead of the election, Turning
Point Action touted its <round-
the-clock Digital War-Room to
promote content we create and
constantly barrage the left on-
line,= according to a slide deck
obtained by The Post. It seized on
culture war issues such as how
race is taught in public schools,
the rights of transgender individ-
uals and illegal immigration.
But Trump lost Arizona 4 the
first time a Republican presiden-
tial candidate had ceded the state
since 1996. Quickly, Turning
Point became a linchpin of
Trump9s efforts to deny his defeat
and reverse his loss.
Bowyer, elected that year to the
Republican National Committee,
gathered with Hoffman and Ward
at the state party9s headquarters
on Dec. 14, 2020, the day the
state9s presidential electors met
to cast their votes for Biden,
according to state party tweets.
As part of a seven-state plan, the
trio signed paperwork falsely de-
claring themselves the state9s
electors. That plan is now a focus
of congressional investigators
and prosecutors probing Trump9s
quest to stay in power.
On Twitter, the state party
asked followers whether they
would be willing to die to keep
Trump in the White House. An-
other post proposed <contempt &
jail time= for county officials who
affirmed Biden9s win.
The posts alarmed Trey Terry,
35, a conservative who lives near
a Republican county official who
had helped oversee the election
and was facing death threats as a
result. Terry urged Bowyer to
help tone down the messaging in
a private exchange over Twitter
that was obtained by The Post.
<His kids and wife can9t go
anywhere without being ha-
rassed as they go in and out of
their house,= Terry wrote, describ-
ing the county official9s experi-
ence. <That s--- is out of line. So
it9s hard for me to ignore.=
Bowyer responded that while
he had sympathy for the county
official, elected leaders must ad-
here to the party9s platform and
<repercussions could be big for
those who aren9t on the same
page with the party.=
Terry accused party leaders of
<whipping= up activists <based on
zero evidence= of widespread
fraud. Bowyer did not disagree
but suggested that his approach
is the reason for Turning Point9s
success.
<I didn9t build a 45 million
dollar a year organization,= he
wrote, by <misunderstanding the
base.=
Meanwhile, Turning Point Ac-
tion arranged for seven buses to

the governor. But the money has
also extended to legislative races
in which spending is traditionally
restrained. Hundreds of thou-
sands of dollars went to Hoff-

The PAC helped a crew of

Why daylight saving time is worse

for your body than standard time
BY A ARON S TECKELBERG AND L INDSEY B EVER
At 2 o9clock this morning, 48 states and the District of Columbia re-
set their clocks and fell back into standard time. From a health stand-
point, most sleep and circadian experts say we should stay here.
Experts say early-morning sunlight is key to maintaining our circa-
dian rhythms, sleep-wake cycles and overall health. Phyllis Zee, a neu-
rologist and chief of sleep medicine at Northwestern University Fein-
berg School of Medicine, said that without that sunlight, we can slip in-
to circadian misalignment 4 <when your internal body clocks fall out of
sync with that of the sun clock and your social clocks.=
The concern with adopting a permanent change to daylight saving
time, which the Senate has voted to do, is that it may chronically throw
our bodies out of sync with the sun and lead to a variety of health prob-
lems, sleep experts say.
<We would be misaligned all year long,= said Beth Malow, professor
of neurology and pediatrics and the director of Vanderbilt University9s
sleep division.
How is it that one hour can have such a significant impact? Look
through these illustrations to learn more about how your brain and
health are affected by time changes.

Morning sunlight resets our internal clock, but too much light at night can affect sleep

But for most of us, that internal

Luckily, the sun steps in
to help us by sending
signals to specialized
receptors in our eyes.
Each morning, sunlight

|is can interfere with
our ability to sleep.

We are in sync with the sun in standard time. In daylight saving time, sleep and wake times are misaligned with our body clocks.

With the time change each spring to
daylight saving time, we abruptly disrupt
this important relationship between our
brains and the sun. Here9s why:
Our internal clock evolved to align with
the sunrise, sunset and a 24-hour day.
Likewise, the clocks we developed to
schedule our days were conceived to align
with the 24-hour solar day.
When we are observing standard time,
noon is when the sun is generally at its
highest point. Let9s call it solar noon.
For most of us, our watches and phone
clocks dictate how we live large parts of
our lives 4 when to wake up, be at work
and go to bed.
Each March, when we switch to day-
light saving time, our daily schedules shift
by an hour.
Notice how now we wake up in the dark
and leave work with more hours of sun-
light left in the day.
But the sun doesn9t move. Solar noon,
which is synced with your internal clock, is
still at the same time as the previous day.
Now your daily schedule and solar noon
are misaligned.
Unfortunately, the internal clock in
your brain can9t adjust as fast as your
watch. It takes your internal clock at least
one day to adjust to one hour in time
change. And for some people, it can take
longer than that.
One of the major problems with chang-
ing to daylight saving time is that it dis-
rupts sleep. Your body isn9t yet ready to fall
asleep at your usual bedtime, which is now
an hour earlier.
And in the morning, your body wants its
old wake time, too. But your alarm clock
wakes you an hour earlier, so you can get to
work on time. Now you9re cutting into your
sleep at both ends.
This sudden one-hour shift each spring
has been associated with more heart at-
tacks and strokes. Automobile and other
types of accidents also increase.

Permanent daylight saving time would mean less morning sun year round, creating long-term circadian misalignment.

There is also a cumulative toll of circadi-
an misalignment. Here9s what would hap-
pen if we stayed in daylight saving time all
year long.
The summer solstice, around June 21 in
the Northern Hemisphere, is the longest
day of the year. In some locations, such as
D.C., there may be nearly 15 hours of
daylight.
That extra hour of sunlight after work
may feel nice, but having a later sunset close
to bedtime can delay the onset of those
sleep hormones, pushing your internal
clock later.
Even though you may end up losing
some sleep, during the summer you would
still have early-morning sun to <pull= you
back a little bit.
But let9s imagine if daylight saving time
becomes permanent, as has been pro-
posed. Six months later, during the short-
est day of the year, on Dec. 21, you would
have a different problem.
There would be a bit over nine hours of
sunlight in D.C. during the day. You would
wakeup indarkness,andthesunwouldn9trise

Because you already would have been
awake for hours before the sun rose, it
would be less capable of <pulling= your
clock back into alignment. If your internal
clock doesn9t get <pulled= enough, it can9t
reset itself.
So, your internal clock may remain
slightly longer than 24 hours, causing you
to drift out of sync with the solar day.
With each passing day, those extra min-
utes can accumulate. Over time, your in-
ternal clock and your real-world clocks
move further apart.
This results in circadian misalignment,
a mismatch between our schedules that
tell us when to wake, <and what our out-
side environment wants us to do, which is
to stay in bed and sleep because it9s dark
outside,= Malow said.
As a result, staying in daylight saving
time year round could put people at great-
er risk for seasonal depression in the win-
ter months, experts say. Experts also say
circadian misalignment can affect the pro-
duction of important hormones such as
melatonin.
Living chronically out of sync with our
internal clock puts us at an increased risk
for sleep loss, obesity, diabetes, heart dis-
ease, mood disorders and even certain
types of cancer.
Melatonin has oncostatic properties,
meaning it can slow the spread of cancer,
said Charles Czeisler, chief of the Division
of Sleep and Circadian Disorders at
Brigham and Women9s Hospital.
But what would happen if we adopted
standard time year round? Experts say we
would eliminate the short-term health
problems (and frustration) created by ad-
justing our clocks twice per year.
More importantly, our internal clock
would stay in sync with the solar day. With
better circadian alignment, we may reduce
the risk for many long-term health issues.
Circadian and sleep experts say there is
a powerful biological case for staying in
standard time year round. Changing the
clocks doesn9t change the overall duration
of sunlight in a day. With permanent stan-
dard time, at least you would be getting
that light at the right time of day for
optimal health.

U.S. privately asks Ukraine to show openness to negotiations
UKRAINE FROM A1
with him has generated concern
in parts of Europe, Africa and
Latin America, where the war9s
disruptive effects on the availabil-
ity and cost of food and fuel are
felt most sharply.
<Ukraine fatigue is a real thing
for some of our partners,= said one
U.S. official who, like others inter-
viewed for this report, spoke on
the condition of anonymity to dis-
cuss sensitive conversations be-
tween Washington and Kyiv.
Serhiy Nikiforov, a spokesman
for Zelensky, did not respond to a
request for comment.
In the United States, polls show
eroding support among Republi-
cans for continuing to finance
Ukraine9s military at current lev-
els, suggesting the White House
may face resistance following
Tuesday9s midterm elections as it
seeks to continue a security assis-
tance program that has delivered
Ukraine the largest such annual
sum since the end of the Cold War.
In a trip to Kyiv on Friday,
White House national security ad-
viser Jake Sullivan said the United
States supported a just and last-
ing peace for Ukraine and said
U.S. support would continue re-
gardless of domestic politics. <We
fully intend to ensure that the
resources are there as necessary
and that we9ll get votes from both
sides of the aisle to make that
happen,= he said during a briefing.
Eagerness for a potential reso-
lution to the war has intensified as
Ukrainian forces recapture occu-
pied territory, pushing closer to
areas prized by Putin. Those begin
with Crimea, which Russia illegal-
ly annexed in 2014, and include
cities along the Azov Sea that now
provide him a <land bridge= to the
Ukrainian peninsula. Zelensky
has vowed to fight for every inch
of Ukrainian territory.
Veteran diplomat Alexander
Vershbow, who served as U.S. am-
bassador to Russia and deputy
secretary general of NATO, said
the United States could not afford
to be completely <agnostic= about
how and when the war is conclud-
ed, given the U.S. interest in en-
suring European security and de-
terring further Kremlin aggres-
sion beyond Russia9s borders.
<If the conditions become more
propitious for negotiations, I
don9t think the administration is
going to be passive,= Vershbow
said. <But it is ultimately the
Ukrainians doing the fighting, so
we9ve got to be careful not to
second-guess them.=
While Zelensky laid out propos-
als for a negotiated peace in the
weeks following Putin9s Feb. 24
invasion, including Ukrainian
neutrality and a return of areas
occupied by Russia since that
date, Ukrainian officials have
hardened their stance in recent
months.
In late September, following
Putin9s annexation of four addi-
tional Ukrainian regions in the
east and in the south, Zelensky
issued a decree declaring it <im-
possible= to negotiate with the
Russian leader. <We will negotiate
with the new president,= he said in
a video address.
That shift has been fueled by
systematic atrocities in areas un-
der Russian control, including
rape and torture, along with regu-
lar airstrikes on Kyiv and other
cities, and the Kremlin9s annexa-
tion decree.

Russia will be prevented from re-

Russia, facing a poor position
on the battlefield, has proposed

<Cynically, Russia and its West-

tial administration, wrote in a
recent op-ed published by The
Washington Post.
Ukrainian officials also ques-
tion how they can conduct negoti-
ations with Russian leaders who
fundamentally believe in Mos-
cow9s right to hegemony over Kyiv.
Putin has continued to under-
mine the notion of a sovereign
and independent Ukraine, includ-
ing in remarks last month when
he once again asserted that Rus-
sians and Ukrainians were one
people, and argued that Russia
could be <the only real and serious
guarantor of Ukraine9s statehood,

rity.=
While Western officials also
hold profound skepticism of Rus-
sia9s aims, they have chafed at
Ukraine9s harsh public rebukes as
Kyiv remains entirely dependent
on Western assistance. Swiping at
donors and ruling out talks could
hurt Kyiv in the long run, officials
say.

kabul 4 After the Taliban took
control of Afghanistan last year,
nearly a third of the resident
doctors in Omeida Momand9s
class at a Kabul women9s hospital
fled the country, she said, leaving
the staff stretched thin.
Momand decided to stay, to
finish the last step in her 11 years
of training to care for Afghani-
stan9s women. By day, she exam-
ines gynecology patients and
monitors mothers with high-risk
pregnancies in a room some-
times so crowded that patients lie
on the floor. Night shifts are
spent performing emergency
Caesareans.
Her determination to practice
medicine in her home country
has aligned, ironically, with the
Taliban9s own interests. In the
highly conservative Islamic soci-
ety the Taliban hopes to create,
officials say, women should be
cared for by other women. That
means educating more female
doctors.
This marks a rare instance of
the Taliban publicly and loudly
promoting women9s education
and employment. Training fe-
male doctors and nurses is part
of the movement9s effort to prove
it can provide essential services
while building a society struc-
tured on gender segregation.
Muhammad Hassan Ghyasi,
acting deputy minister of public
health, said in an interview that
his ministry has received <clear
instructions from the top level=
to bring policies in line with the
Taliban9s strict interpretation of
sharia, or Islamic law. A new
policy submitted recently to the
Taliban9s supreme leader, Hai-
batullah Akhundzada, for ap-
proval would formalize a rule
already applied in some hospitals
that female health workers
should treat women, while male
health workers should treat men.
Ghyasi said the policy will
stipulate that if there is no quali-
fied female doctor available, a
female patient can see a male
doctor. But with Afghanistan9s
health system under strain 4 and
an economic crisis fueled by
Western sanctions exacerbating
hunger and sickness 4 the need
for qualified medical profession-
als of both genders is greater
than ever.
The Taliban effort to expand
medical education for women,
especially in fields traditionally
dominated by men, contrasts
with the government9s draconian
restrictions on girls and women.
Since taking power, the Taliban
has barred many girls from sec-
ondary school and shut women
out of most professions. This fall,
authorities prohibited female
university aspirants from enroll-
ing in subjects including journal-
ism, engineering and economics.
The educational restrictions
seem certain to limit the number
of women in the coming years
who can train as doctors. Other
Taliban policies, such as require-
ments in some areas that women
only travel with male guardians,
have hamstrung the efforts of
female doctors to practice.
But at several government-run
institutes for nursing, radiology
and other health fields, the pro-
portion of women admitted 4 at
least 46 percent this semester 4
represents a slight increase com-
pared with 2020 figures, accord-
ing to the International Commit-
tee of the Red Cross, which
supports the institutes.
Taliban authorities also point
to residency programs like the
one at Rabia Balkhi Hospital,
where Momand works, as evi-
dence of their commitment to
educating female health workers.
Hospital director Seemin Mish-
kin Mohmand said the Taliban
health ministry has been sup-
portive of her ambitions to ex-
pand the program and offer
more-advanced training.
Momand is set to graduate this
fall at the top of her class, and
hopes to open a gynecology clinic

support
The needs in Afghanistan are
enormous. The maternal mortal-
ity rate is among the highest in
the world. Worsening malnutri-
tion has contributed to a rise in
premature births and pregnancy
complications, according to
Hamida Hamidi, a doctor at Ra-
bia Balkhi and head of its train-
ing programs.
The health system, heavily reli-
ant on foreign aid, neared col-
lapse in the wake of the Taliban
takeover. After billions in fund-
ing were cut, the ICRC and the
United Nations stepped in last
year to cover tens of thousands of
health workers9 salaries. Still,
some hospitals have closed. Sig-
nificant numbers of doctors have
left the country. And with war
over, the volume of patients seek-
ing care is rising.
The main hospital in Wardak,
a province neighboring Kabul,
used to be on the front line of
fighting. Since the end of the war,
the number of patients has dou-
bled, hospital director Moham-
mad Nader Rahmani said.
As in many areas in Afghani-
stan, families here prefer that
female relatives see women doc-
tors. But while women make up a
majority of patients, they ac-
count for only a quarter of the
hospital9s doctors.
The hospital, run by the Swed-
ish Committee for Afghanistan,
recently hired a female radiolo-
gist, Rahmani said. But the limit-
ed pool of female health workers
has made it difficult to hire more.
The Taliban9s stated goal of
creating a separate but equal
health system for men and wom-
en remains a distant dream,
hospital administrators and in-
ternational aid workers said. <In
the short term, this policy is

would be able to put a satellite
weighing 176 pounds into orbit
some 310 miles from Earth.
Over the past decade, Iran has
sent several short-lived satellites
into orbit and in 2013 launched a
monkey into space. The program
has seen recent troubles,
however. There have been five
failed launches in a row for the
Simorgh program, another
satellite-carrying rocket.

A dearth of specialists
In Afghanistan, as in many
other countries, the essential
task of caring for mothers and
babies has long been dominated
by women. Women make up a
significantly smaller proportion
of other medical specialists, Af-
ghan doctors and hospital ad-
ministrators say.
Six years ago, the World Health
Organization raised the alarm
about how a lack of female
health-care workers was prevent-
ing Afghan women from receiv-
ing adequate care.
But it wasn9t always this way.
When Hamidi was in medical

geons and urologists, she re-
called. When civil war broke out
in 1992, many fled to the West.

Counterproductive policies
Even as the Taliban says it is
looking to expand medical train-
ing for women, other policies are
limiting the ability of women to
provide health care 4 or access it.
Fouzia Shafique, senior health
adviser for UNICEF in Afghani-
stan, said the agency is hearing
more and more reports, especial-
ly in the country9s south and east,
of women being told at health
facilities that they must arrive
with a male guardian to get
treatment. Female health work-
ers, meanwhile, have faced <sig-
nificant issues= traveling to work
in some areas because they must
find a male relative to take them.
Ghyasi, the deputy health min-
ister, said he had <not seen=
reports of women being turned
away from health facilities,
though he added: <We are not
denying it, because at the mo-
ment we have some problems.=
The pipeline for future female
doctors is also narrowing.
Schools in 24 out of Afghanistan9s
34 provinces remain closed to
girls above sixth grade, U.N. spe-
cial rapporteur Richard Bennett
told the U.N. Human Rights
Council in September.
The Taliban closed the high
school Wajeha Kazimi, 19, attend-
ed just before she finished 12th
grade. She was still able to gradu-
ate, and spent more than a year
studying for the university en-
trance exam at a test-prep center
in Kabul. In September, she sur-
vived a suicide bombing there
that left more than 50 people
dead.
Kazimi hopes to go into public
health or pediatrics, and ranked
medicine as her top choice on the
university exam.
<When we were choosing, we
remembered our friends who
were killed who wished to be-
come a doctor,= she said. Her
15-year-old sister, though, re-
mains shut out of formal educa-
tion.

EXCLUSIVE
Russia works to subvert Moldova9s pro-West government
Materials obtained by
Ukrainian intelligence
illustrate Kremlin efforts
BY C ATHERINE B ELTON
chisinau, moldova 4 When
thousands of protesters first
gathered in September outside
Moldova9s presidential palace
calling for the country9s pro-
Western leader to step down, the
man behind the demonstration
4 an opposition party leader in
exile in Israel 4 soon received
plaudits from Moscow.
One senior Russian politician
praised the protest organizer,
Ilan Shor, as <a worthy long-term
partner= and even offered the
Moldovan region led by Shor9s
party a cheap Russian gas deal,
according to Shor9s press service.
Referred to as <the young one= by
Russia9s Federal Security Service
(FSB), the 35-year-old Shor is a
leading figure in the Kremlin9s
efforts to subvert this former
Soviet republic, intelligence doc-
uments and interviews with Mol-
dovan, Ukrainian and Western
officials show.
The documents 4 part of a
trove of sensitive materials ob-
tained by Ukrainian intelligence
and reviewed by The Washington
Post 4 illustrate how Moscow
continues to try to manipulate
countries in Eastern Europe
even as its military campaign in
Ukraine falters. The FSB has
funneled tens of millions of dol-
lars from some of Russia9s big-
gest state companies to cultivate
a network of Moldovan politi-
cians and reorient the country
toward Moscow, the documents
and interviews indicate.
The U.S. Treasury last month
imposed sanctions on multiple
Russian or Moldovan organiza-
tions and individuals including
Shor, saying he was <coordinat-
ing with representatives of other
oligarchs to create political un-
rest in Moldova= and had <re-
ceived Russian support,= as well
as working in June <with Mos-
cow-based entities to under-
mine= Moldova9s bid to join the
European Union.
Moscow has long supported a
breakaway enclave inside Moldo-
va9s borders that is occupied by
Russian troops, and the frozen
conflict there has been a brake
on Moldova9s efforts to integrate
with Western Europe.
In the first months of the
Ukraine war, officials said, the
Moldovan government feared
Russian tanks would stream over
its border, especially if the south-
ern Ukrainian port of Odessa, 40
miles away, fell. That immediate
military threat has ebbed, but
tension is mounting over the use
of natural gas 4 as well as the
fallout from Russian airstrikes
on energy infrastructure in
neighboring Ukraine 4 to force a
change in political leadership.
<After Ukraine, Moldova is the
one we9re focusing attention on,=

September, according to Shor
and the head of Moldova9s media
oversight council, providing him
with a major platform to advance
a Moscow-aligned agenda in this
small country sandwiched be-
tween Ukraine and Romania. In
addition, intercepted communi-
cations show, the FSB sent a
team of Russian political strat-
egists to advise Shor9s party. And,
according to the documents, the
FSB oversaw a deal in which a
Russian oligarch acquired one of

only intensify if it suffers further
losses in Ukraine. <Recently, as
Russia faces military setbacks
and global outrage over its brutal
actions in Ukraine, Russia9s op-
eratives have considered increas-
ingly desperate measures to pre-
vent further erosion of its influ-
ence,= Treasury said in its state-
ment announcing sanctions
against Shor and other individu-
als.
Moldova, which along with
Ukraine was granted E.U. candi-
dacy status in June, is particular-
ly vulnerable to Russian pressure
because of its near 100 percent
dependence on Russian gas.
Fivefold increases in gas prices
this year have hit its population
of 2.5 million hard, and energy
bills now amount to more than
60 percent of an average Moldo-
van9s living costs, officials in
Chisinau said.
Russian officials <are very em-
barrassed about the entire
Ukraine operation, and they
need a success somewhere,= Oleg
Serebrian, Moldova9s deputy
prime minister, said in an inter-
view. <My personal fear is that
Moldova is an easier target than
Ukraine. So, for a kind of moral
rearmament of Russian society,
they could use different tools in
Moldova. The first one is the
economic one.=
Gazprom, Russia9s state-con-
trolled natural gas monopoly, cut
supplies to Moldova by 50 per-
cent this month. Russian air-
strikes targeting Ukraine9s en-
ergy infrastructure are further
increasing the pressure. Ukraine
had supplied 30 percent of Mol-
dova9s electricity, but the bomb-
ing of Ukrainian power stations
means Moldova has had to turn
to Romania instead.

troops that controls the power
station supplying the remaining
70 percent of the country9s elec-
tricity needs, this week com-
pletely cut off those volumes
because of reductions to the
Gazprom gas supply, leaving
Moldovan authorities desperate-
ly scrambling to reach agree-
ment with Romania to make up
the deficit and implementing
emergency energy-saving mea-
sures. <Every bomb that falls on a
Ukrainian power plant is a bomb
that falls on the Moldovan elec-
tricity supply as well,= said Nicu
Popescu, Moldova9s foreign min-
ister.
Officials fear that the Shor-
organized protests, though rela-
tively small for now, could esca-
late once winter hits and that an
energy crunch could be used to
topple the government.
Moldova9s new anti-corrup-
tion prosecutor last month de-
tained 24 people, including
members of Shor9s party, in con-
nection with the alleged illicit
financing of the demonstrations,
with the prosecutor saying inves-
tigators had seized 20 black bags
stuffed with 3.5 million lei (about
$181,000) in cash. The Shor party
said the arrests were <pressure=
from the authorities to disrupt
the anti-government protests.
Shor in the interview said the
Moldovan government was to
blame for the growing economic
crisis because it <is breaking
Moldova9s neutral status and
bringing harm to the people of
Moldova because today, for nor-
mal people, [good relations with
Moscow] is the basis for getting
normal gas prices.=
8A real idol9
The documents provide a rare
glimpse inside the shadowy
world of Russia9s influence oper-
ations in Moldova and the twin
instruments of natural gas and
illicit financing that the Kremlin
wields here.
<The Russians are very good at
exporting two things: one, en-
ergy, and the second, corrup-
tion,= said a senior Moldovan
security official, who like some
others spoke on the condition of
anonymity to discuss a sensitive
matter.
Since 2016, FSB operations in
Moldova have been led by Dmit-
ry Milyutin, a general in the
security service who serves as
deputy head of the Department
of Operational Information, ac-
cording to the documents. For
most of his time in the post,
officials said, Milyutin worked
through Igor Chaika, a Russian
businessman who is the son of
Russia9s former prosecutor gen-
eral. Chaika is the ambassador to
Moldova of a Kremlin-linked
business association, Delovaya
Rossiya.
Treasury also imposed sanc-
tions on Chaika last month, say-
ing that <in conjunction with
Kremlin press secretary Dmitry
Peskov,= he had <developed de-
tailed plans to undermine Mol-
dovan president Maia Sandu and
return Moldova to Russia9s
sphere of influence.=

Russia strips climate
advocate of citizenship
Arshak Makichyan is now effectively stateless
BY F RANCESCA E BEL
Climate activist Arshak Mak-
ichyan built a reputation as the
Russian answer to Greta Thun-
berg, staging lonely weekly pro-
tests in central Moscow and often
getting arrested.
Makichyan, 28, who fled Russia
to Berlin in March following the
invasion of Ukraine, is still push-
ing for climate action, but as of last
week, the government says he is
no longer Russian. In an unusual
case, a Moscow court has decided
to strip Makichyan 4 along with
his father and brother, who both
remain in Russia 4 of their citi-
zenship, in what appears to be
payback for his public antiwar
statements.
Makichyan, who is Armenian
by birth, emigrated to Russia as a
baby in 1995 and holds only a
Russian passport, meaning the de-
cision has rendered him effective-
ly stateless. <I am at a loss as what
to do going forward,= Makichyan
told The Washington Post in a
phone interview, saying that a
refugee passport in Germany
could restrict his climate activism.
After the February invasion of
Ukraine, Makichyan, like many
Russian activists, made the diffi-
cult decision to flee their country.
He and his young wife, a fellow
activist, had married the very
same day Russian troops poured
into Ukraine. They both contin-
ued to speak out against the war
from Germany.
A trial to review his citizenship
began in his absence over the sum-
mer, and a Moscow court decided
to revoke it last month, accusing
Makichyan of having provided
Documents show how Russia9s FSB
has cultivated a network in Moldova
RUSSIA FROM A21
In addition, Treasury said, the
Russian government used Chai-
ka9s <companies as a front to
funnel money to the collaborat-
ing political parties in Moldova.
Some of these illicit campaign
funds were earmarked for bribes
and electoral fraud.=
Milyutin communicated with
Chaika more than 6,000 times
between December 2020 and
June 2022, according to the
Ukrainian intelligence docu-
ments.
The FSB was <checking with
[Chaika] what needed to be done
at any moment,= a Ukrainian
security official said, referring to
the documents. Chaika <is like a
wallet for them.=
The FSB, Milyutin and Chaika
did not respond to requests for
comment. Peskov told The Post
that he <of course= knows Chaika
but had never worked on any
plans with him to restore Rus-
sian influence in Moldova. <I
have nothing to do with Moldo-
va,= he said.
Until recently, the documents
show, the FSB9s primary vehicle
in Moldova was the Socialist
Party, headed by Igor Dodon,
who served as Moldova9s pro-
Moscow president from 2016 to
2020. Chaika has never hidden
his close connections with
Dodon: He has jointly owned
businesses in Russia with
Dodon9s younger brother in real
estate and waste management
since 2019, according to official
company registration docu-
ments.
The Socialist Party strategy
backfired badly, however, in
2020 when the Moldovan popu-
lation rejected Dodon after he
became mired in a series of
corruption scandals. In one se-
cretly recorded video leaked in
2019, Dodon admitted to receiv-
ing Kremlin funding 4 including
from Gazprom 4 and said he
required $800,000 to $1 million
per month to cover his party9s
<running costs.=
Dodon, who has been charged
with treason, illegal enrichment,
corruption and illegal party fi-
nancing, did not respond to
requests for comment sent to the
spokesperson of the Socialist
Party, where he is still a member.
In court, he has denied the
charges, saying the case against
him is <100 percent political.=
Moldovans voted in Sandu, a
former World Bank economist,
as the country9s new president
on Nov. 15, 2020.
Moldovan political strategists
hired by the FSB reported back
to Moscow in September 2021
that the Socialist Party9s defeat in
parliamentary elections that
year was <the result of a systemic
crisis= and that Dodon was a
person with an <irreversibly
. THE WASHINGTON POST
false information to immigration
authorities, despite being just 10
years old when his father made the
citizenship application. The court
only informed his lawyer of their
decision a week later.
<This is my identity. I have en-
gaged in activism in Russia for
four years. I have lived all my life in
Russia, and despite everything, I
see myself in its future, when Rus-
sia becomes free,= Makichyan said.
The court also revoked the citizen-
ship of his father and brother. Like
Makichyan, neither his father or
brother hold any other passport
and it is unclear what fate awaits
them in Moscow.
<The court applied the law very
liberally in this case,= Olga
Podoplelova, a lawyer for Mak-
ichyan, told The Post, saying that
they plan to appeal the decision.
<Under normal circumstances, we
could easily defend the citizenship
of Arshak, his father and brother.=
But these are not normal cir-
cumstances. Since the invasion,
Russian authorities have blatantly
and repeatedly disregarded the
law, arresting people simply for
standing in the vicinity of an anti-
government protest, and forcing
people ineligible for military serv-
ice to sign up for the army. Ethnic
minorities have also come under
fire.
<Since I was a kid, I felt, well, not
totally Russian,= Makichyan said.
<I felt that I had no right to partici-
pate in political life, because if I
said anything, people would say
immediately that I am Armenian
and that I should go back to my
own country.=
<But I continued because I
somehow felt responsible. I un-
damaged reputation= whose re-
moval from the political scene
should be carried out with <sur-
gical virtuosity.=
The virtuosity came in the
form of a golden handshake, the
documents show. After Dodon
stepped down from the Socialist
Party, he was appointed chair-
man of the Moldovan-Russian
business council, an organiza-
tion established by the Kremlin-
linked Delovaya Rossiya.
Dodon9s monthly salary, paid by
the business council, was
$29,016, plus a $14,508 monthly
bonus, documents show.
Moscow quickly stepped up its
search for Dodon9s political re-
placement. Shor, who had en-
tered politics from a background
chairing a major Moldovan bank
and a chain of duty-free shops
along with Moldova9s commer-
cial airport, was viewed by poll-
sters working for the FSB as
something of a showman popu-
list, but manipulable, the docu-
ments show. He9d won early
success in 2015, when he was
elected mayor of the Moldovan
city of Orhei. But two years later,
he was found guilty of looting
$1 billion from the Moldovan
banking system 4 a 2014 heist
that left the Moldovan govern-
ment with a budget deficit
amounting to 8 percent of gross
domestic product.
Shor remained mayor while he
appealed the conviction but then
left the country for Israel in 2019,
denying the bank theft charges,
which he described as politically
motivated. He continued to run
the party from exile and it came
in third in the 2021 parliamenta-
ry elections, with 5.7 percent of
the vote.
<For some, [Shor] is clearly
allergic, an unacceptable figure.
But for others, he is a real idol
and leader,= according to an April
2021 report written by the strat-
egists for the FSB.
The Kremlin-hired political
strategists had first traveled to
Chisinau from Russia in March
2021 to work secretly with Shor9s
party, the documents show. They
took great efforts to make sure
their presence was undiscovered,
buying prepaid SIM cards for
burner phones and keeping the
addresses of the apartments they
were renting hidden 4 even to
members of Shor9s party, accord-
ing to a note written by one of
them that is part of the docu-
ment trove.
Among the measures they rec-
ommended to the Shor party was
to erase as much as possible
<negative background,= presum-
ably Shor9s past criminal convic-
tion, and to attempt to clean up

Biden9s 8consequences9 for Saudi Arabia are reaping quiet results
BY K AREN D E Y OUNG
Despite its furious reaction to
Saudi Arabia9s decision last month
to cut oil production in the face of
global shortages, and threats of
retaliation, the Biden administra-
tion is looking for signs that the
tight, decades-long security rela-
tionship between Washington and
Riyadh can be salvaged.
Those ties, and a commitment
to help protect its strategic part-
ners 4 particularly against Iran 4
are an integral part of U.S. defens-
es in the Middle East. When recent
intelligence reports warned of im-
minent Iranian ballistic missile
and drone attacks on targets in
Saudi Arabia, the U.S. Central
Command launched warplanes
based in the Persian Gulf region
toward Iran as part of an overall
elevated alert status of U.S. and
Saudi forces.
The scrambling of the jets, dis-
patched as an armed show of force
and not previously reported, was
the latest illustration of the
strength and importance of a part-
nership the administration has
said it is now reevaluating.
<There9s going to be some con-
sequences for what they9ve done,=
President Biden said after the Sau-
dis agreed last month, at a meet-
ing of the OPEC Plus energy cartel
they chair, to cut production by
2 million barrels a day.
The cuts serve only to increase
prices, the White House charged,
and would benefit cartel member
Russia at the moment the United
States and its allies were trying to
choke off Moscow9s oil revenue to
undercut its war in Ukraine.
In the angry days that followed,
the Saudis publicly countered that
the administration had asked for
the cuts to be delayed by a month,
indirectly suggesting that Biden
wanted to avoid increased prices
at the gas pump before the upcom-
ing U.S. midterm elections. Na-
tional Security Council spokes-
man John Kirby let loose to report-
ers that the Saudis were trying to
<spin= the U.S. concerns over
Ukraine and world energy stabili-
ty into a domestic political ploy,
and to deflect criticism of fence-
sitting on Russia9s war.
Many lawmakers, some of
whom have long advocated cut-
ting ties with the Saudis, reacted
with even greater umbrage, call-
ing for the immediate withdrawal
of thousands of U.S. troops sta-
tioned in the kingdom and a stop
to all arms sales, among other
punitive measures.
But the White House, as it con-
siders how to make good on
Biden9s <consequences= pledge
and despite its ongoing anger, has
become uneasy over the reaction
its sharp response has provoked at
home. Rather than moving quick-
ly to respond, it is playing for time,
looking for ways to bring the Sau-
dis back in line while preserving
strong bilateral security ties.
<Are we rupturing the relation-
ship? No,= said a senior adminis-
tration official, speaking on the
condition of anonymity about
what has become a sensitive polit-
ical and diplomatic situation. <We
had a fundamental disagreement
on the state of the oil market and
the global economy, and we are
reviewing what transpired.=
<But we have important inter-
ests at stake in this relationship,=
the official said.
Oil, and Saudi Arabia9s influ-
ence on the global market, is sec-
ond only to U.S. strategic interests
in the Persian Gulf, where the
kingdom plays a central role, not
least in countering Iranian aggres-
sion. The White House, which con-
firmed a Wall Street Journal re-
port on the recent Iranian threat
and high-level alert, declined to
comment on the launch of U.S.
warplanes.
<Centcom is committed to our
long-standing strategic military
partnership with Saudi Arabia,=
said command spokesman Joe
Buccio. <We will not discuss opera-
tional details.= The United States
maintains significant air assets in
the region, including F-22 fighter
jets in Saudi Arabia, although the
location from which they were
scrambled was not clear.
Only about 6 percent of U.S. oil
imports now come from Saudi
Arabia. China is the kingdom9s
largest trading partner, and com-
mercial ties with Russia have
broadened. But security and intel-
ligence ties are the linchpin of
U.S.-Saudi relations, and defense
officials in Washington are unset-
tled by what the current upheaval
might mean.
Major U.S. deployments there
ended after the 2003 invasion of
Iraq, and there have been repeated
bilateral strains in recent years,
including human rights concerns

over the Saudi-led war in Yemen,
and the 2018 murder by Saudi
agents of journalist and regime
critic Jamal Khashoggi, a U.S. resi-
dent and columnist for The Wash-
ington Post.
There are about 2,500 U.S. forc-
es now in Saudi Arabia, many of
them involved in high-tech intelli-
gence work and training. The
United States is the supplier of
nearly three-quarters of all weap-
ons systems used by the Saudi
military, including constantly
needed parts, repairs and up-
grades.
Military sales to the kingdom
have been the subject of repeated
controversy in recent years, as
many in Congress have objected to
them. While President Donald
Trump, who boasted of billions in
potential U.S. sales to the Saudis,
vetoed congressional attempts to
stop particular transactions,
Biden banned the kingdom9s pur-
chase of offensive U.S. weapons
shortly after taking office.
Since then, there have been two
major Saudi purchases, of air-to-
air missiles, and replacement mis-
siles for Patriot air defense batter-
ies. Another order for 300 Patriot
missiles 4 at more than $3 million
per unit 4 was approved by the
State Department in August, after
a Biden visit to the kingdom,
where he reportedly believed he
cemented an agreement with the
crown prince not to cut oil produc-
tion.
Although Congress did not for-
mally object to the new sale within

a 30-day allotted window, there
has been no public indication that
the next step in the transaction 4
a signed contract with the Defense
Department 4 has been taken.
The Pentagon has <nothing to an-
nounce at this time= regarding the
sale, Lt. Col. Cesar Santiago, a
spokesman, said Friday.
In a reflection of the current
level of congressional ire, Sen.
Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) said last
month that all weapons sales to
Saudi Arabia should be stopped,
and that any Patriot systems there
should be removed and sent to
Ukraine. <If Saudi Arabia isn9t
willing to take the side of Ukraine
and U.S. over Russia, why should
we keep these Patriots in Saudi
Arabia when Ukraine and our
NATO allies need them,= Murphy
wrote on Twitter.
While two U.S.-controlled Patri-
ot systems remain in Saudi Arabia
to protect U.S. personnel from
missile attacks from Yemen9s
Houthi rebels, and presumably
from Iran, the bulk of the systems
in use there were purchased years
ago by the Saudis and belong to
the kingdom.
Biden has said he wants to con-
sult with lawmakers over the
promised <consequences,= and
while strong statements by law-
makers buttress his threat, the
current congressional recess also
gives the administration some
breathing room.
The strongest objections to
business as usual with the king-
dom have come from Democrats.
THE WASHINGTON POST
Rep. Ro Khanna (Calif.) and Sen.
Richard Blumenthal (Conn.) last
month introduced a bill to halt all
U.S. arms sales to Saudi Arabia
until they reconsider the oil pro-
duction cuts. <The Saudis need to
come to their senses,= Blumenthal
said in announcing the measure.
<The only apparent purpose of
this cut in oil supplies is to help the
Russians and harm Americans.= A
separate bill by a trio of Democrat-
ic House members, led by Rep.
Tom Malinowski (N.J.), would re-
quire the removal of U.S. troops
from Saudi Arabia and the United
Arab Emirates.
Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.),
the powerful chairman of the Sen-
ate Foreign Relations Committee,
last month issued a statement say-
ing that <the United States must
immediately freeze all aspects of
our cooperation with Saudi Ara-
bia,= and vowed he would <not
green-light any cooperation with
Riyadh until the kingdom reas-
sesses its position with respect to
the war in Ukraine.=
Most Republicans who have
taken a stand on the issue have
said Biden should use the cuts to
increase domestic oil production,
although the United States is al-
ready pumping roughly 1 million
barrels a day more than when
Biden took office.
So far, the administration has
offered no clues as to what, if any,
punitive measures it might con-
sider during its review of the rela-
tionship, and appears in no rush to
decide. <We don9t need to be in a
hurry,= Kirby said Oct. 26. In the
meantime, officials have empha-
sized steps they say the Saudis
have taken to assuage U.S. anger
and prove they9re not leaning
toward Russia.
<Our displeasure has already
been clearly stated and has al-
ready had an impact,= the senior
official said. <We9ve seen the Sau-
dis react in ways that are construc-
tive.=
In addition to a Saudi vote in
favor of last month9s U.N. General
Assembly resolution condemning
Russia9s illegal annexation of four
regions of Ukraine, Crown Prince
Mohammed bin Salman, the king-
dom9s de facto ruler, called Presi-
dent Volodymyr Zelensky to tell
him Saudi Arabia would contrib-
ute $400 million in humanitarian
aid to Ukraine, far more than its
only previous donation of $10 mil-

lion in April.
The Saudis have been actively
supportive of a recent truce in
Yemen that the Biden administra-
tion has championed. And after
years of U.S. effort to persuade the
Persian Gulf countries to adopt a
regional missile defense system
against Iran, long resisted by the
Saudis, the administration be-
lieves it is finally making headway.
Secretary of State Antony
Blinken has indicated that9s not
yet enough. Speaking recently to
Bloomberg News, he called the
U.N. vote and the Ukraine dona-
tion <positive developments,= al-
though <they don9t compensate
[for] the decision made by OPEC
Plus on production.=
But the more time that elapses,
the more chances Saudi Arabia
will have to make things right and
temper any U.S. response. One key
indicator is likely to come next
month, when the European Union
has scheduled a ban on seaborne
imports of Russian crude oil 4
followed by a prohibition against
all Russian petroleum products
two months later 4 and U.S.-pro-
moted plans to impose a price cap
on Russian oil.
Any market shortages those
measures may create could be
made up by increased production
by Saudi Arabia, officials believe.
Saudi Energy Minister Abdulaziz
bin Salma said recently in remarks
to an investor conference in Ri-
yadh that this was his country9s
plan all along.
The Saudis have repeatedly in-
sisted that their only interest is in
global market stability. Reduced
production now, the minister said,
would create spare capacity to
make up for upcoming sanctions
on Russia without creating major
global shortfalls. <You need to
make sure you build a situation
where if things [get] worse you
have the ability= to respond, he
said. <We will be the supplier of
those who want us to supply.=
The Saudis, Abdulaziz said, had
<decided to be the maturer guys,=
as opposed to those who were
<depleting their emergency stocks
& as a mechanism to manipulate
markets.= Biden has withdrawn
about a third of the U.S. Strategic
Petroleum Reserve this year, in an
effort to keep gas prices within
reach for Americans already
struggling with high inflation and
interest rates.

The
tragedy
of
John
Roberts
by Ruth Marcus
O
n the final day of oral arguments
last term, the chief justice9s voice
cracked with emotion as he bade
farewell to the retiring Justice
Stephen G. Breyer. It was a strik-
ing moment for the normally
buttoned-up John G. Roberts Jr.,
and one that seemed to signify more than
sorrow at the departure of a longtime colleague.
It is not far-fetched to imagine that Roberts was
mourning the decisive end of his vision of
presiding over an institution seen as operating
above the partisan fray.
<I9ve lost my only friend on the court,= Rob-
erts told someone afterward.
As Roberts, 67, begins his 18th term, he is an
at times isolated and even tragic figure. Roberts
wanted to be at the helm of a court that was
more often unanimous than splintered; now it
is cleaved, 6-3, along hardened ideological lines.
the opinions essay
Roberts wanted to help shore up the court9s
institutional standing; instead, he has watched
it plunge in public esteem, helpless to prevent
the fall.
He has been outflanked and marginalized by
five conservative justices to his right, even as he
has been subjected to unsparing criticism by
those to his left.
In the last term alone, Roberts witnessed the
unprecedented 4 and, from all appearances,
still unsolved 4 leak of a draft opinion, in the
Dobbs abortion case. In the aftermath of that
jarring event, his most conservative colleague,
Clarence Thomas, openly lamented the days
when <we were a family= 4 and pointedly dated
those to the <fabulous court= before Roberts9s
tenure.
When the final Dobbs ruling was released,
Roberts was a lone voice, his suggested compro-
mise unable to attract a single additional vote.

And with trust in the court at a record low 4
down 20 points in two years to just 47 percent of
Americans saying they had a <great deal= or <fair
amount= of faith in the institution 4 Roberts
felt compelled to speak out in its defense,
engaging in an extraordinary public back-and-
forth with Justice Elena Kagan about the court9s
legitimacy.
In short, with the death of liberal Justice
Ruth Bader Ginsburg and the arrival of Justice
Amy Coney Barrett to shore up the conservative
wing, this is the Roberts court in name only. The
chief now finds himself in the unexpected posi-
tion of being 4 or at least voting 4 to the left of
the new swing justice, Brett M. Kavanaugh.
Roberts remains at the top of the pack of
justices voting with the majority 4 95 percent of
the time in divided cases last term, tied only by
Kavanaugh. But that statistic obscures the reali-
ty that time after time, Roberts9s colleagues
A25
have ignored his pleas for patience.
Roberts has found himself dissenting when
his fellow conservatives refused to block Texas9s
abortion law as the case was litigated; when
they allowed an Alabama redistricting plan to
take effect despite the fact that, as Roberts said,
the trial court that found it violated the Voting
Rights Act <properly applied existing law in an
extensive opinion with no apparent errors for
our correction=; and when they enjoined New
York9s pandemic rules even though restrictions
on religious services had been revised. Dobbs
wasn9t an outlier.
<I don9t think I would want to be Roberts
right now,= said University of Southern Califor-
nia law professor Lee Epstein, who specializes
in studying the justices9 voting patterns. <He has
some very aggressive, ambitious colleagues on
his right who want to do a lot very quickly, and

that9s just so not Roberts. . . . He tries to
slow things down, but they9re not going to
be slowed.=
Tellingly, conservatives and liberals use
the same stark adjective 4 relevant 4
when they describe Roberts9s current
predicament.
<He9s just less relevant now,= said Mike
Davis, who heads the conservative Article
III Project and worked to confirm Presi-
dent Donald Trump9s judicial nominees.
With three appointments to the court, he
said, <Trump transformed the 5-to-4 John
Roberts court into the 5-to-4 Clarence
Thomas court, meaning it9s more likely the
court9s just going to follow the law and not
be concerned about the political fallout.=
Harvard Law School professor emeri-
tus Laurence H. Tribe, co-author of a book
on the Roberts court, made the same point
from the opposite ideological perspective.
<He9s largely irrelevant, except that the
court has gone so far, so fast that he may
become more relevant depending on
whether anybody else is chastened,= Tribe
said.
The question now is how Roberts will
respond to this new reality. He is a chief
caught between conflicting imperatives.
If he insists on hewing to the go-slow,
decide-no-more-than-necessary ap-
proach that has been the hallmark of his
tenure, he risks appearing weak 4 and
losing what little ability he retains to
influence and constrain the conservative
majority. If he votes with that majority, as
might be his underlying inclination in
most cases, he risks contributing to what
he has been laboring to prevent: the de-
cline of the institution.
chief justice is little more than the
A first among equals; his vote counts
no more than that of the other eight
justices. His main authority derives from
the power, when he is in the majority, to
assign the authorship of opinions, either
writing himself or giving the job to a
colleague.
But Roberts, with a careful eye on his-
tory, had a far grander, even audacious,
mission in mind, one he laid out in an
interview with the Atlantic9s Jeffrey Rosen
in 2006 at the conclusion of his first term.
<It9s sobering to think of the seventeen
chief justices; certainly a solid majority of
them have to be characterized as failures,=
Roberts told Rosen. <The successful ones
are hard to number.=
To reread the interview now, with fore-
knowledge of the changes to come, is
poignant. Roberts talked about the dan-
ger of polarized politics, and the <high
priority to keep any kind of partisan di-
vide out of the judiciary as well.= He
wanted his colleagues to <factor in the
Court9s institutional role= and elevate con-
sensus-building over ideological purity.
Like his greatest predecessor, Chief Jus-
tice John Marshall, who served from 1801
to 1835, Roberts wanted to see the court
speak as often as possible with a single
voice, not a cacophony of concurring and
dissenting opinions. That would produce
more jurisprudential stability and, conse-
quently, more public respect for the court.
It all sounds quaint now. Last term9s
numbers tell the story. According to Ep-
stein9s calculations, just 28 percent of the
court9s opinions were unanimous in the
last term 4 far below the 41 percent
average since Roberts joined the court.
The most common voting pattern wasn9t
9-0, as is the general rule, but 6-3. And the
vast majority of those (14 of 19), according
to statistics compiled by Scotusblog, re-
flected the six-justice conservative bloc.
<Chief Justice Roberts tried to avoid the
polarization of the court from the begin-
ning,= Rosen told me. <The whole point of
his vision was to avoid the court blowing
itself up and squandering its legitimacy.=
And that is the tragedy of John Roberts.
The man whose career betrays virtually
no hint of failure appears to be failing at
the most monumental task he has con-
fronted, one he set for himself.
Roberts is an accidental chief justice,
but his arrival at the court was anything
but accident. In a city of glittering résu-
més, Roberts had compiled one that was
burnished to perfection by the time he
was nominated to the high court by Presi-
dent George W. Bush in 2005.
Raised in Indiana, the son of a Bethle-
hem Steel executive, Roberts graduated
summa cum laude from Harvard College
after just three years, then headed
straight to Harvard Law School, where he
was managing editor of the law review.
That was capped by the most presti-
gious of clerkships, for appeals court
judge Henry Friendly and then-Justice
William H. Rehnquist, and a subsequent
trip up the ladder of the plummiest jobs
for a conservative young lawyer in the
Reagan and George H.W. Bush adminis-
trations: special assistant to the attorney
general, associate White House counsel,
principal deputy solicitor general.
As much as Roberts served as loyal foot
soldier in President Ronald Reagan9s legal
revolution 4 memos from the time show
him forcefully urging conservative posi-
tions 4 he combined that stance with a
Midwestern geniality, a gift for forging
across-the-aisle relationships and canny
circumspection about exposing his views
to public scrutiny.
<An ultimate insider in the capital,= the
New York Times wrote after his nomina-
tion in July 2005. <Judge Roberts is a
conservative, but he has never been an
ideological crusader,= said The Post9s Edi-
torial Board, adding that <nobody really
knows what Judge Roberts believes, be-
cause he has been unusually careful about
not discussing his views.=

for the D.C. Circuit by George H.W. Bush in
1992, but the Senate never voted on his

inated him in 2001, the Democratic-

Two years later, the younger Bush nom-

Justice Sandra Day O9Connor, who retired
to help care for her ailing husband. But on
conûicting imperatives. Sept. 3, 2005, just three days before Rob-

Bush, dealing with the disastrous after-
math of Hurricane Katrina, quickly decid-
ed to slot Roberts into Rehnquist9s seat,
notwithstanding his relative youth (the
youngest chief justice since John Mar-

That fortuitous timing is important to
understanding Roberts9s performance.

case, Roberts himself would surprise and

The second chapter was fleeting 4

Among that court9s 5-4 rulings, Roberts
was in the majority in every case but one.
He cast an uncharacteristic vote in favor
of abortion rights, a decision he said was
compelled by a precedent from which he
had dissented, and another blocking

tions for <dreamers.=
Three months later, Ginsburg died.
Once, conservatives had found them-

tice Antonin Scalia, in a 2007 campaign
finance case, called Roberts9s <faux judicial
restraint.= With the arrival of Barrett in
late 2020, Roberts9s go-slow admonitions
proved, for the most part, unpersuasive.
Now, the more conservative justices
show little inclination to heed him 4 a
phenomenon on painful display in last
term9s abortion case. Roberts could sum-
mon no justices to support his middle-
ground position, to uphold Mississippi9s
15-week abortion ban but stop short of
overruling Roe v. Wade. Justice Samuel
A. Alito Jr.9s majority opinion dismissed
Roberts in almost sneering tones. <The
concurrence9s most fundamental defect is
its failure to offer any principled basis for
its approach,= Alito wrote.
It was a dramatic turnabout from Rob-
erts9s ascendant position just a year be-
fore. <This,= said one conservative lawyer,
<was John9s worst nightmare.=
ajorities can turn out to be fleet-
M ing, although the current super-
majority appears rather durable.
It9s possible that Kavanaugh will be taken
aback by the public reaction to the court9s
lurch to the right and show more willing-
ness than he has so far in helping Roberts
slow things down.
But, although Kavanaugh and Roberts
tend to vote together more than any other
pairing of justices, in most of the critical
cases where Roberts has sided with the
liberals, Kavanaugh has declined to go
along. Less likely, but not impossible,
Barrett could still surprise; she9s new, and
her record on some issues 4 race, to take
one current example 4 is still unwritten.
That leaves Roberts, as he nears the end
of his second decade on the court, a chief
without a constituency.
Many of his fellow conservatives, in-
cluding some of his own colleagues, view
him with suspicion, if not outright dis-
dain. Roberts, as they see it, has subordi-
nated his simple duty to apply the law in
the service of somehow protecting the
institution 4 and, perhaps not coinciden-
tally, his own reputation.
Liberals understand that his seeming
moderation is only by contrast to his
hot-under-the-collar colleagues, and that
his ultimate goals are deeply at odds with
their own constitutional vision. Roberts
might be an occasional accomplice, but he
is not their ally.
He faces every temptation to join the
conservative majority. That imbues him
with the power to assign the writing of key
opinions to himself, or, alternatively, to
keep the authorship away from the most
extreme conservatives. The bottom line
might be the same. But the precise lan-
guage the court uses in deciding a case
matters for those yet to come; it matters
whether an opinion9s author is Thomas or
Kavanaugh.
As it happens, the court9s highest-
profile cases this term 4 on affirmative
action, voting and the right of a Christian
business owner to refuse to serve same-
sex weddings 4 will all push Roberts in
the direction of his fellow conservatives.
<The fact is that the kind of issues that he
cares most about are some of the most
important cases on the docket this term,=
said Donald B. Verrilli Jr., who was solici-
tor general under President Barack
Obama. <I feel like he can and will reassert
his leadership by playing a dominant role
in those cases, and it will seem like, 8Oh,
Roberts is back. He9s regained control.9 =
Perhaps, but for how long? Roberts
might be with the radical majority on race,
but will that alliance hold in other areas?
And would this be Roberts in control 4 or
merely the illusion of control? The majori-
ty to his right, to the extent it holds solid,
retains the power to do what it will,
whether Roberts signs on or not. It is fully
aware it holds that power and is not afraid
to exercise it.
Conversely, Roberts might see benefits
to being on the losing side. As a nominee,
Roberts famously insisted that judges are
mere neutral umpires calling balls and
strikes; as chief justice, he publicly repri-
manded Trump for denouncing a jurist as
an <Obama judge.= Roberts is the chief
justice of the United States, the head of the
entire judiciary. He might perceive an
advantage in demonstrating with his vote
that the high court 4 and the judiciary
itself 4 is not neatly divided along party
lines.
And there is another way for Roberts,
who once aspired to be a history professor,
to think about his choice: over the long
sweep of time. Ineffective now might look
heroic decades hence. Roberts can be
remembered as the chief justice who went
along with the conservative crowd and, in
so doing, helped bring disrepute on an
activist, radical court. Or he can be the
conservative who tried to stop, or at least
slow, the tide, lauded for his steadfastness
even if it proves unavailing.
History seems certain to remember the
Roberts court in a different way than John
Roberts once imagined, but he retains the
ability to shape history9s verdict on his
own performance.
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 6 , 2022 . THE WASHINGTON POST
Postcards from the
LIZETTE ALVAREZ
IN FLORIDA
The state that
stopped swinging
permanent campaign
palmetto bay, fla. 4 In Florida, elections are typically
nail-biters. Voters stay glued to election returns late
into the night. Republicans and Democrats are equal-
ly convinced that they will win. Candidate lawn signs
abound.
Not this time. The final run-up to the midterm
elections that spotlights Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republi-
can, vying against former Florida governor Charlie
Crist, a Democrat, smacks of a fait accompli. So does
the other marquee race, Sen. Marco Rubio, a Bible-
quoting Republican against challenger Rep. Val
Demings, a tough-talking former Orlando police chief.
For Democrats 4 who make up fewer Florida
registered voters than Republicans do 4 any positive
vibes come veiled by anticipatory grief. At least in
South Florida, few Democrats are talking about the
election, and if they do, it9s quietly, as though the Grim
Reaper might overhear.
A recent event for Democratic activists in Jackson-
ville 4 Crist showed but Demings didn9t 4 attracted
just 50 to 60 people. You could practically hear the air
rushing out of the tires.
In the past two weeks, various surveys show De-
Santis and Rubio pulling ahead, into the double
digits, depending on the poll. <It9s over. And it9s going
to be ugly,= Evan Ross, a longtime Democratic consul-
tant, told Politico. He was talking about the governor9s
race, but it could have applied to most any big race.
In my neighborhood, a Miami-Dade town of not
quite 24,000 residents, people seem much more
interested in the local races for mayor and council.
Republicans act as though they know the deal is
sealed. Since 2020, Florida has become even more
enthralled with the MAGA movement. It9s the byprod-
uct of a confluence of factors: an energized and orga-
nized Republican Party, an aggressive and culture-
wars-embracing governor, the arrival of many new
Floridians 4 often from Republican-friendly states 4
and lopsided redistricting. Steep inflation under Dem-
ocratic rule in Washington hasn9t helped.
National Democrats and donors scarcely played
ball here. Seeming to sense an unwinnable fight, they
basically steered their money and focus elsewhere.
And the state Democratic Party9s effort and record
remain lackluster.
DeSantis9s massive financial advantage has al-
lowed him to spend more than $50 million on TV ads,
compared with Crist9s paltry $5.5 million. The gover-
nor has taken credit for saving Florida from economic
ruin during the pandemic and protecting schools
from liberal intrusions. Crist and other Democrats
countered with ads on abortion rights and unafford-
able housing-insurance rates as well as the cost of
living generally.
One open question is whether Miami-Dade, a
longtime Democratic stronghold and the state9s most
populous county, flips Republican. With more Cuban
Americans galloping toward DeSantis, a Republican
governor might win the county for the first time since
2002, when Jeb Bush was reelected.
That9s why President Biden and former president
Donald Trump are campaigning here in the final days.
Biden arrived on Tuesday, hoping to energize Demo-
crats at a rally with Demings and Crist. But on Sunday,
Trump will hold a rally for Rubio (and not, notably, for
DeSantis, his potential future rival).
Two days later, we will know who won. Earlier than
usual, most likely.
DAVID VON DREHLE
IN KANSAS
Let9s go to work
de soto, kan. 4 You might say that House members
come in four types: the ones who want to be famous
and will say anything to get on TV; the ones who want
to climb the political ladder; the ones disillusioned by
their limited power; and the vanishingly small num-
ber who actually enjoy the work of representing their
constituents.
Rep. Sharice Davids (D-Kan.) could fit easily in
Group 1. Every TV producer from morning to late
night would love to book a Native American lesbian
former mixed-martial-arts fighter who holds a seat in
Congress from a purple island in the Midwest9s red
sea. But Davids shuns the spotlight, styling herself a
<nerd= who likes figuring out Washington so she can
pull levers for her district.
She low-key listens to constituents regardless of
party, asking what they need and speaking candidly
about what she can and can9t get done. <There9s a
hierarchy in D.C.,= she says, and as a two-term mem-
ber she9s not the first to hear what9s going on. <Assume
we know nothing.=
But she9ll try. She9ll try to get a mobile police
command center for Olathe, and she9ll try to get the
two-lane highway in Louisburg widened to four, and
she9ll try to find money for local Chambers of Com-
merce to make payroll through the pandemic.
On a recent morning in De Soto, Davids was trying
to help local leaders get ready for the biggest thing to
hit town in decades. De Soto once bustled, thanks to a
huge World War II munitions factory. But the plant
has been closed and neglected forever 4 <nothing but
rusty old fences and gates and rotting buildings,= city
administrator Mike Brungardt told Davids.
The site needs a federal cleanup, pronto, because
Japanese electronics giant Panasonic chose De Soto
for a $4 billion battery factory to make power cells for
electric cars. Besides the cleanup, De Soto needs wider
roads, more schools, new housing, better sewers 4
<and we don9t have the money,= Brungardt said.
Yard signs for Davids9s opponent, software execu-
tive Amanda L. Adkins, attest to the fact that De Soto
leans Republican. No problem. Davids salts her an-
swers with mentions of her bipartisan work with
Sen. Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) and nods gratefully when
local Chamber of Commerce director Sara Ritter
praises her advocacy for small businesses.
Davids reacted calmly when Republicans in the
state legislature carved a Democratic enclave out of
her district, which includes much of the Kansas-side
suburbs of Kansas City and replaced it with new rural
precincts 4 she worked her way onto the Agriculture
Committee. <I think our farm bureaus appreciate that
I am taking the work seriously,= she said in an
interview.
A New York Times-Siena College poll released
Oct. 27 found Davids comfortably ahead, 55 to 41, in
her rematch with Adkins. Might some of that margin
be a residue of the landslide vote in August to protect
abortion access in Kansas?
<I do think the political climate is a bit different
since Roe was overturned,= Davids allowed 4 but then,
EZ RE A27
sunday opinion
a lot of things are different. The pandemic has eased,
thanks to vaccines, she said, and many voters are
turned off by the right9s election conspiracy theories.
Too partisan? Without missing a beat, Davids
added a shout-out for the Kansas secretary of state, a
Republican. With him in charge, the election will be
splendid, she is confident.
DANA MILBANK
IN PENNSYLVANIA
Post Opinion columnists ûled these The little Trump that couldn9t
dispatches from four closely watched states manheim, pa. 4 It was a fitting coda to a fraudulent
in the ûnal days of the midterm elections. candidacy.
Doug Mastriano tried to overthrow the 2020 elec-
tion results in Pennsylvania and was at the Capitol on
Jan. 6, and as Pennsylvania9s Republican gubernatori-
al nominee this year he colored his campaign with
Christian nationalism and antisemitism.
So it was appropriate that he brought in as his
closer Bernie Kerik, the former New York City police
commissioner who did three years in prison for tax
fraud and other felonies 4 then later, after receiving
a pardon from President Donald Trump, became the
self-described <chief investigator= for Trump9s <big
lie= claims of election fraud.
<People can say all day long 8there was no voter and
election fraud.9 That9s BS and I know it!= the ex-con
told about 400 cheering Mastriano die-hards Satur-
day at an indoor sports complex aptly named Spooky
Nook. Kerik added, <The only way the Democrats are
going to win this time is cheating.=
The whole election spectacle in this swing state has
been grotesque this year. The crucial open-seat Senate
race is close, as was originally expected, but for
different reasons: Republican Mehmet Oz, a TV doc-
tor/huckster, was weak on the campaign trail, and
Democrat John Fetterman suffered a severe stroke.
But there is apparent good news. The voters of the
commonwealth appear to be set to reject in large
numbers the vulgar Mastriano, with his conspiracy
theories and coterie of hate. Even in the Trump era,
there is still such a thing as going too far.
Waiting in line with the modest Mastriano crowd
here in rural Lancaster County, I heard a man nearby
laughing about the attack on House Speaker Nancy
Pelosi9s home that left her husband, Paul Pelosi, with a
fractured skull. He wore a cap announcing <Make
America a S---hole With Democrats= and a T-shirt
proclaiming <Protect the LGBFJB Community= (Let9s
Go Brandon, F--- Joe Biden). Immediately behind me,
two women speculated that the Pelosi attack was a
hoax 4 <another diversion= 4 staged by the left.
Warm-up act Kerik, in a law-and-order lecture
from the ex-con, led the crowd in expressing con-
tempt for Philadelphia (<Who wants to visit, work, live
or go to a school in a war zone?=) while finding a way to
blame crime on Jewish billionaire George Soros.
Mastriano9s aimless ramble kept circling back to
crime, critical race theory, transgender people, <dis-
gusting graphic porn in our elementary schools,= the
media, and girls afraid of finding a <pervert= in the
bathroom. He said his opponent, Josh Shapiro, <can9t
define a woman.=
A guy in the crowd called out: <He worked with
Levine too long= 4 Rachel Levine, the trans former
Pennsylvania health secretary now in the Biden
administration.
<I love this crowd,= Mastriano replied. <We9re
among our friends and allies.= He said he9s <going to
buy a wig one of these days. I might look slightly better
than Levine.=
He rounded that out by mocking Shapiro9s height
and the effects of the stroke on <incoherent= Fetter-
man, making fun of the name of an African country
(<shake your Djibouti=), and praising Lancaster Coun-
ty for outlawing election drop boxes.
The crowd answered with a standing ovation.
KAREN ATTIAH
IN TEXAS
Everything9s bigger here,
except the Democrats9 chances
dallas 4 In a lot of ways, it9s a pretty good time to be in
Dallas. The Cowboys have been winning most of their
games (so far, yay), and the city is one of the fastest-
growing in the country. People are moving here from
all over the country. We made it through the summer
without a power-grid meltdown.
That said, a lot of Very Bad Politics have gone down
in my state 4 abortion bans, migrant trafficking
stunts and the further deregulation of guns. And in
the governor9s race, while Democratic challenger Beto
O9Rourke is quite known nationally and has raised a
lot of money, his campaign appears very unlikely to
unseat the GOP incumbent, Greg Abbott.
For a long time, people have wondered whether the
influx of people moving to cities in Texas would help
alter the electoral map 4 whether people from blue
states could come and try to change things here. It9s
not uncommon to see bumper stickers with the words
<Don9t California My Texas.=
Texas is still rapidly diversifying and immigrants are
opening small businesses. I see much of that in all
aspects of my life here in Dallas, from my gym 4 owned
by immigrants from the Philippines 4 to the new
African grocery store where my mom goes to shop. The
media for years has made a lot of Texas9s demographic
changes, and Democrats keep hoping that these
changes would loosen the grip of the GOP over the
state9s politics. Hispanic Americans are projected to
soon outnumber Whites as the demographic majority
in the state. However, many of the Hispanics that I
know here are evangelicals. They lean conservative 4
which is something the national media constantly
overlooks. Abbott knows this. He has been running ads
in Spanish for quite a long time; Republican candi-
dates often have ties with local megachurches.
What I think people on the left also miss is this: Just
because there are more immigrants and non-Whites
in Texas, it does not mean those groups have acquired
the generational wealth (yet) to pour massive
amounts of money into races and shape the culture
wars 4 like wealthy White groups have. I wish we
would talk about the political spending power of
demographic groups to the same extent that we talk
about their voting rates.

Anything but normal
The midterm elections continue a disturbing trend. Voters should keep that in mind.
S TUESDAY9S midterm elec-
A tions approach, Americans
seemingly cannot agree on any-
thing 4 except that they cannot
agree. A new Post poll shows that
Americans are virtually unanimous in
their worry that severe political divi-
sions have increased the risk of political-
ly motivated violence. Nearly 9 in 10
reported they are somewhat or very
concerned. Federal authorities warned
last month that a broad range of poten-
tial targets, such as ideological oppo-
nents and election workers, might be at
risk following the vote, particularly if
losing candidates claim election fraud.
Leading up to Election Day, voters
themselves have been menaced in places
such as Arizona, where body-armor-clad
watchers have monitored people depos-
iting their ballots in drop boxes.
There is no need to overstate the
threat; widespread early voting has so
far proceeded mostly without incident,
and it is imperative that Americans are
not scared away from the polls. That
requires leaders at all levels of govern-
ment to assure that voting and vote-
counting proceed smoothly 4 and for
voters themselves to recognize that this
election matters, more than many oth-
ers in the past, and to be sure to show up.
Another lesson in ethical misconduct
An appointee of Mr. Trump, yet again, has shown a blatant disregard for the rules.
ANY AMERICANS will likely
M be surprised to learn that
there9s such a thing as the
uppercased Architect of the
Capitol, rather than merely the architect
of the Capitol 4 William Thornton, who
designed the building in the late 1700s.
But there is, and the man occupying this
presidentially appointed position today
has made the most of it, at taxpayers9
expense.
The Office of the Inspector General
issued a report last month identifying a
series of <administrative, ethical and
policy violations= by J. Brett Blanton,
appointed by President Donald Trump
and sworn in in early 2020. The actions
catalogued tell an almost comic story of
corruption: The architect and his family
logged nearly 20,000 extra miles in his
government SUVs driving to a craft
brewery as well as destinations as far
away as Florida. His daughter even used
the SUVs to cruise around with her
friends and boyfriend, calling the fuel
<free gas.= This included swerving
through a Walmart parking garage in
Tysons Corner, Va., at 65 mph.
Finally, the real doozy: After a vehicle
hit his daughter9s boyfriend9s car, Mr.
Blanton activated the emergency equip-
ment in his SUV to role-play a police
chase 4 including leading local law
enforcement to believe he was a cop in a
ruse that lasted throughout the entire
court proceedings.
This is, to some extent, just another
story of a Trump appointee displaying
the same disregard for the norms of
good government as his appointor. Yet,
in this case, the lapses must be particu-
larly galling for members of Congress
China9s pandemic failure

Zero covid has turned whole cities
such as Xi9an, or sections of a metropolis
like Shanghai, into ghost towns. Resi-
dents are ordered to stay indoors or are
confined to special quarantine centers
when just a handful of infections are
detected. China has also deployed its
own vaccines to fight the virus, although
the elderly remain undervaccinated, and
the shots are not as effective as the
mRNA vaccines. China has boasted of a
pandemic response that it claims is
better than other nations9, but its report-
ed 28,579 covid deaths are almost cer-
tainly an undercount.

In deciding whether and how to vote,
Americans should keep the fundamen-
tals in mind, supporting candidates
committed to the democratic system
and the peaceful transfer of power, and
opposing those who have tried to profit
from toxic lies about election integrity.
Otherwise, those who stoke unfounded
suspicions and widen divisions might
prevail. This would encourage others to
mimic them. It would also hand over
critical elements of the machinery of
democracy to election deniers in ad-
vance of the 2024 presidential race.
Such candidates have appeared all
over the map. A Post count found that in
10 states, election deniers are running to
become their states9 chief elections offi-
cials, such as Arizona9s Mark Finchem

Nevada9s Jim Marchant (R). In office,
deniers could make voting more diffi-

rity of the count, run conspiracy-theory-
inspired vote audits 4 as the Arizona
Senate did following the 2020 election 4
or even refuse to certify election results.
Meanwhile, if Republican Doug Mas-

As long as the media continues to
parrot corporate talking points, workers
will continue to burn out, <quiet quit= and

scratch their heads in wonder.
Catherine McCubbin, Towson
I am perplexed as to why employers are
perplexed about the productivity drop
they are seeing, with many employees
working from home more than two years
after the start of the pandemic. Humans
are social animals. In my experience,
face-to-face communication is far richer
and more effective than written or phone
communication. It fosters brainstorming
and collaboration.
In the 1990s, I left a company in which
employees worked in the same building
or locality for another in which employ-
ees usually worked with employees in
other states. I found myself <telecommut-
ing= from the office. Eventually, I began
telecommuting from home. Though I ap-
preciated the convenience of this ar-
rangement, I found it far less stimulating.
Perhaps not coincidentally, the most suc-

Inûation is a global problem
Lawrence H. Summers has been spot-
on on the economy recently. But given
that this is a hot-button political issue, I
was disappointed that he seemed to
blame the Federal Reserve and the Biden
administration in his Nov. 1 op-ed, <Curb-
ing inflation comes first, but we can9t
stop there.= It would have been more
useful to put inflation in a global context.
According to the Oct. 29 issue of the
Economist, the latest annual increase in
consumer prices in the United States was
8.2 percent. The average for the euro zone
was 9.9 percent. Many countries9 leaders
are struggling with the economic conse-
quences of China9s supply chain disrup-
tions, Saudi Arabia9s oil price increases
and Russia9s war on Ukraine.

Contemplating peace
For the first time in several years in
The Post, Michele L. Norris has reframed
our goals out loud for the future 4
namely peace in all its aspects and
impacts 4 and suggested how to get
there. Her Oct. 30 op-ed, <Can9t we give
8peace9 a chance?,= was a reassuring relief.
Are we up to this more complex and
harder work as a human species in this
country and in the world? Maybe peace
has faded away as a topic to write about
because we don9t have the strength it
takes to work for it.
I applaud Ms. Norris in asking us this
question. Let it resound in our lives and
work and media treatments.

A deplorable state of politics
Our country is in a dark place indeed
when the hammer assault on the hus-
band of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi
(D-Calif.) devolves into a race to the
bottom for the most salacious conspiracy
theory [<Republican extremism is the
ghoul in the room,= E.J. Dionne Jr., op-ed,
Nov. 3]. Anybody with access to Twitter or
other social media can see how gleefully
these theories are being spread by gull-
ible and uninformed individuals.
That some officials and candidates
choose to elevate these outrageous theo-
ries or to use the attack to score political
points is deplorable. These reactions
encourage more political violence to fol-
low from deranged individuals.

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 6 , 2022 . THE WASHINGTON POST
JAMES HOHMANN
Republicans
are eyeing a
comeback in
New England
cranston, r.i.
T
he GOP9s likeliest path to the
House majority runs through
some of the bluest states, where
many independent voters feel
the rising cost of living, are disappointed
by one-party rule and are not nearly as
anxious as some in red states about
losing abortion access.
If Allan Fung rides a red wave to
victory in this Rhode Island congres-
sional district that Joe Biden carried by
14 points two years ago, Republicans
could net the six seats they need to retake
the House from the Northeast alone.
That might be one of the bigger story-
lines coming out of Tuesday. Right now,
not a single Republican from New Eng-
land has a seat in the House. But Fung, a
self-described centrist who served 12
years as mayor of Rhode Island9s second-
largest city, is one of a number of Repub-
licans, an endangered species in New
England, who might be elected Tuesday.
Inflation is the top issue, far and away.
As Fung glad-handed in the bleachers at
two high school football games last Fri-
day night, voters lamented increases in
the price of home heating oil, worried
about whether to heat or eat this winter,
and expressed support for expanding
energy production. <The economic ship
is listing because of Biden9s failed pol-
icies,= said Fung, 52.
This district has nearly three times
the number of Democrats than Republi-
cans, but just over half of registered
voters are unaffiliated. Conversations
with more than three dozen indepen-
dents 4 at a supermarket, a Dunkin9, a
Family Dollar, a gas station and a tavern
4 suggested they may break decisively
for Fung.
If he wins, Republican
Allan Fung might emerge
as a moderating influence.
The median household income is low-
er in Rhode Island ($70,305) than in
neighboring Massachusetts ($84,385) or
Connecticut ($79,855), so residents tend
to be more conscious of costs. During an
afternoon of interviews, folks com-
plained about rising rents, unaffordable
child care and increasing health-care
expenses. An elderly woman expressed
concern that a man has started sleeping
in his car on her street because he can9t
get work. At the Twin Oaks bar, three
guys were grumbling over clams and the
World Series about gas prices being up
34 cents at a filling station down the
road. A clerk at the dollar store told me
her shop had to lock the restrooms be-
cause shoplifting has increased as infla-
tion has spiked.
Facing Fung is Democrat Seth
Magaziner, 39, state treasurer for the
past eight years. His dad, Ira, was Bill
Clinton9s health-care czar. In debates,
the younger Magaziner blamed Big Oil
and Big Pharma for rising prices. He
proposes taxing windfall profits and says
Fung is in the pocket of industry.
Republican ads depict <$eth= as a
trust-fund kid whose donors sip cham-
pagne at fundraisers while laughing
about how inflation isn9t ruining their
vacations. <Magaziner was handed ev-
erything. . . . But we can9t afford him in
Congress,= commercials say.
Fung is the son of Chinese immigrants
and recounts busing tables as a boy at the
family restaurant they ran for 35 years.
His class-based appeals are a reminder
that the GOP is targeting non-college-
educated blue-collar types, of all races,
more than college-educated suburban
White people who were historically the
most coveted swing voters.
Magaziner urges voters to judge Fung
<by the company he keeps.= His ads
feature photographs of the former may-
or wearing a Donald Trump beanie at the
2017 inauguration. During the debate,
Magaziner said a vote for Fung is really a
vote for Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene
(R-Ga.). To which Fung responded: <Seth
wants six more years of Biden.=
The Democratic Congressional Cam-
paign Committee9s internal polling has
the race tied. Magaziner9s polling put
Fung up three points in early October.
Multiple surveys show that Fung holds a
bigger lead among men than Magaziner
has among women.
This may be because Fung says
he wouldn9t vote for any national abor-
tion ban. He also endorses efforts by
Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) to codify
abortion rights with religious liberty
protections and to reform the Electoral
Count Act to prevent a repeat of post-
2020 chaos.
Talking with the mild-mannered
Fung makes Democratic ads trying to
link him to the Jan. 6 insurrection ring
hollow. The comparisons to Greene are
equally silly.
If he wins, Fung might emerge as a
moderating influence inside a likely
House GOP majority that will be freight-
ed with fringe figures. But if he goes to
Congress and doesn9t practice what he9s
preaching on the stump, he might get
washed out to sea in 2024.
Because New England Republicans
are still an endangered species.
Instagram users need a better
way to report death threats
BY S HERRY H AKIMI
F
riday, Oct. 14, was an eventful
day for me. It started with a
meeting with Secretary of State
Antony Blinken, and it ended
with death threats.
I was one of a small group of Iranian
American women invited to meet with
top State Department officials to dis-
cuss the female-led protest movement
that is gathering strength in Iran. Be-
forehand, the secretary9s office asked
for our consent to have news organiza-
tions present while the secretary made
a statement. Not anticipating any harm,
I said yes.
Unfortunately, I was mistaken. Over
the following week, I learned firsthand
how the policy and design decisions of
social media platforms, such as Insta-
gram, directly affect users9 personal
safety.
Soon after photos from the State
Department meeting appeared in the
news, my Twitter mentions 4 normally
nonexistent, because I barely use Twit-
ter 4 ratcheted up. I saw tweets con-
taining misinformation, hate, harass-
ment, violence and vile insults. That
night, the attacks spread to Instagram.
The next morning, I woke to a slew of
message requests to my private Insta-
gram account. Alongside hateful and
harassing messages were death threats.
As someone who readily introduces
herself as a <policy nerd= 4 certainly
not a public figure 4 I was stunned.
Not knowing how to deal with the
death threats, I followed the platform9s
user interface, hoping it would guide
me to appropriately respond. Insta-
gram gives three options at the bottom
of message requests: block, delete or
accept.
Clearly, <block= was my only viable
option. It would make no sense to
<accept= the hate and threats, and to
<delete= without blocking would allow
DAVID VON DREHLE
Pot: $1.6 billion. Odds: 1 in 292 million.
Who wins? It9s murky.
A
record $1.6 billion Powerball
drawing might seem a strange
occasion to discuss the waning
oomph of the state lottery racket,
but behind the mania lies stagnation.
Bigger prizes are designed to revive woozy
receipts.
To understand the connection between
eye-popping prizes and underlying de-
cline, take a look at how the Powerball
game works. Lottery players 4 roughly
half of all Americans, according to studies
4 already know this, but for those who
don9t play: The drawing scheduled for
Nov. 5 reached such dizzy heights because
38 consecutive Powerball drawings
(13 weeks9 worth) had ended with no
grand prizewinner. The prize rolled over
each time; more tickets were sold; the
jackpot grew.
With more than a billion tickets sold,
the whiffs can9t go on forever. But long
stretches without a grand prizewinner is
exactly what Powerball (and its sibling
Mega Millions) is designed to produce.
Winning the top Powerball prize is not
like being hit by lightning; it9s more like
being hit by lightning while reading
Proust at Windsor Castle. You must have
on your card all five of the digits chosen at
random, with each digit having 69 possi-
bilities. Plus, you must have the right
Powerball number as well, which is cho-
sen from 26 possibilities.
The odds against this are 292 million
to 1. That9s a big number. In days, 292 mil-
lion is equal to 800,000 years. In miles, it
is roughly the average distance to Mars
and back, or three trips from Earth to the
sun. Anything with a 1-in-292 million
chance of happening is about as close to
EZ RE
these criminals (or bots) to return. No,
thank you.
Tapping <block= brings up a menu
with options to <ignore,= <block ac-
count= or <report.= Tapping <report=
leads to a new menu, which says: <Select
a problem to report.=
Here, I ran into a new problem (atop
the death threats): None of the report-
ing categories sufficiently captures the
severity of a death threat.
So, I reported all the messages under
the two closest options: <violence or
dangerous organizations= and <bully-
ing or harassment.= Then, I waited. Two
days later, despite reaching out to a
friend who works at Meta and accepting
her offer to submit an internal escala-
tion, no response arrived. The threaten-
ing message requests kept coming. Fi-
nally, a private security professional
showed me how to change my Insta-
gram settings to stop message requests.
It9s worth noting that in many places,
local police lack jurisdiction in cases of
threats made on social media plat-
forms. When my local officers heard
that the death threats had come via
Instagram, they told me they had no
jurisdiction in the matter, instructed
me to contact Meta and hung up.
By Wednesday 4 four days later 4 I9d
still heard nothing from anyone at Meta
who wasn9t my friend or a friend of a
friend. Coincidentally, Nick Clegg,
Meta9s global affairs president, was
speaking that Friday at the Council on
Foreign Relations (CFR), of which I am
a member. So, by a combination of
coincidence, privilege and some cour-
age, I had the opportunity to ask Clegg
why Meta doesn9t have a <death threat=
option in its reporting process.
I am grateful that he took my ques-
tion seriously. He seemed genuinely
sorry and at a loss for what to say or do,
and his team quickly followed up. Yet,
the larger problem with the reporting
process should be solved at scale.
zero chance as you can get.
In the infinitesimal space between zero
chance and the tiniest of chances, a lot of
dreams can gather.
Operators of the multistate game un-
derstand that players will buy the dream
if it9s big enough. In 2015, as growth in
lottery revenue began to flatten, game
masters tweaked the rules to make the
odds of success much smaller 4 and thus
make top prizes much bigger. Eye-
popping jackpots inspire media hype
(guilty) and lure new players.
So far, the tweaked strategy has result-
ed in a holding pattern at best. Despite
bigger prizes, the voluntary tax receipts
paid by lottery players into state coffers 4
roughly 30 percent of the ticket price 4
remain flat, at just under $30 billion per
year (not counting the income taxes that
winners must pay).
How much further should govern-
ments travel along this morally ambigu-
ous terrain? The impulse to gamble ap-
pears to be hardwired in the human brain.
According to the Bible, Roman soldiers
gambled at the foot of the cross for the
cloak of the crucified Jesus. The likeliest
explanation for flat lottery revenue is the
proliferation of alternative games of
chance: casinos, online sportsbooks,
meme stocks, cryptocurrencies.
Furthermore, the line between gam-
bling and investing can at times be as
diaphanous as silk lingerie; some of
America9s greatest fortunes have been
built on risky bets that paid one winner at
the expense of a lot of losers. The Kennedy
dynasty, for instance, got a big lift when
patriarch Joseph P. shorted the Great
Depression.
WASHINGTON POST STAFF ILLUSTRATION/ISTOCK
There are at least three ways that
Meta9s approach and choice architec-
ture could be redesigned to better up-
hold its community guidelines and en-
sure greater user safety:
First, add a <death threat= option to
the reportable problem categories. For
example, Twitter9s reporting process
includes a category specifying <threat-
ening me with violence.= In most juris-
dictions, a death threat is a criminal
offense 4 especially when delivered in
writing. It should be catalogued as such.
Second, assemble a team dedicated
to monitoring and handling reports of
death threats. If local police lack juris-
diction over its platform, Meta must
step up. Users who threaten harm
should be identified and banned from
platforms without delay. Moreover, in
addition to enforcing its own communi-
ty guidelines, the company should work
with law enforcement to ensure that
incidents are properly reported and
local laws are upheld.
Third, perhaps the simplest and
quickest action: under Settings >
Privacy > Messages, set the default to
<don9t receive.= Receiving messages
from others should be an opt-in setting,
not an opt-out one. In his remarks at the
CFR, Clegg mentioned that Meta em-
ploys nudge theory principles to steer
users toward optimal practices. It took
three days for me to learn that I had the
choice to not receive message requests
from people I don9t follow. At a mini-
mum, <don9t receive= should be the
default for users who have private
accounts.
Speaking as someone whose life was
upended by death threats on a Meta
platform, I have one more ask of the
company: Please move fast and fix
things.
The writer is the founder and executive
director of genEquality, an organization that
promotes gender equality and inclusion.
If people are determined to sink their
money into the addictive jolt of gambling,
isn9t it better that governments run the
games and skim the profits, rather than,
say, organized crime? By this same argu-
ment, states ran the bootleggers out of the
booze business; now they9re racing down
the slippery slope to legalize marijuana.
The wages of sin, once a topic for preach-
ers and theologians and payable at death,
are now collected by the legislatures.
Who pays? The answers are surprising-
ly murky. According to the Bureau of
Labor Statistics, the top 60 to 80 percent
of earners spend the most on lottery
tickets, followed by those in the 20 to
40 percent quintile. That9s a mixture of
people who arguably can and can9t afford
the near-certain losses. Lottery defenders
say that, at a buck or two per ticket, the
games are cheap entertainment.
We might ask our governments to aim
for more than mere bread and circuses,
though. Government can edify as well as
entertain. In contemplating the record
Powerball, I found myself thinking of
Oseola McCarty, the laundress of Hatties-
burg, Miss., who saved her few spare
nickels each week for 75 years, rather than
gambling them away. She left $150,000 to
the University of Southern Mississippi
when she died in 1999.
The fund she endowed from hard work
and thrift has grown to some $630,000.
The goal is $1 million, which would
support 20 scholarships per year of at
least $2,000 each in perpetuity. Maybe a
Powerball winner will read of McCarty
and top off her fund. In this way, mere
luck could pay tribute to the virtues that
make dreams come true.

GEORGE F. WILL
2022 held
many lessons,
many of them
unpalatable
O
f this election season, we may
say what Samuel Johnson said
of Milton9s <Paradise Lost=: No
one ever wished it longer. Still,
if your idea of heaven is endless learn-
ing (is there a better idea?), political
2022 has been heavenly because we
learned much about ourselves, even if
we would rather not have learned a lot
of it.
Fifty-eight percent of Americans
own stocks individually, or through
mutual funds, 401(k)s, IRAs, etc. As this
is written on Thursday, the Dow Jones
industrial average is about 4,800 points
below its all-time high of 36,952.65 on
Jan. 5 this year.
Twenty-six days before Election Day,
the last preelection inflation numbers
showed that government-made infla-
tion, which the Biden administration
18 months ago called <transitory,= is like
all <temporary= government programs:
long-lived. By mid-year, a typical house-
hold was spending $460 a month more
than 12 months earlier for the same set
of purchases. It was always fanciful for
Democrats to think that, although tens
of millions of Americans supported
overturning Roe v. Wade, abortion
rights could be a more politically
potent issue than inflation, which infu-
riates everyone. The Supreme Court
restored states9 authority to set abor-
tion policy, making governors central to
the debate. Republican pro-life guber-
natorial candidates are winning in
Georgia, Ohio and Iowa, and perhaps
Arizona.
If on Tuesday Hispanic voters contin-
ue their drift away from Democrats, the
reasons might include these: Self-
identified <strong progressives= are
only about 10 percent of voters, but they
have a disproportionate effect in set-
ting perceptions of the Democratic
Party. Sixty-six percent of them say this
is not the world9s greatest country, and
94 percent say racism is built into the
nation9s policies and institutions.
Hispanics disagree with those proposi-
tions by 70 percent and 58 percent,
respectively.
Also, many Hispanics fled socialism,
or have family memories of it, and are
repelled by progressives who admire it
from a safe distance.
Furthermore, because many Hispan-
ics are upwardly mobile, they believe in
upward American mobility, and hence
are not attracted by the Biden adminis-
tration9s enthusiasm for racial spoils
systems, a.k.a., <equity.= These are, as
Christopher DeMuth of the Hudson
Institute correctly said at Hillsdale
College recently, <programs favoring a
long and elastic list of politically select-
ed groups, including its catch-all cat-
egory of those 8adversely affected by
inequality.9 = Many Hispanics have ex-
perience of life under governments that
pick winners and guarantee losers.
Until 1970, when Hispanics were less
than 5 percent of the population, they
were not a category counted by the
census. Now, they are 19 percent of us,
and they wonder why patronizing pro-
gressives thought it necessary to con-
coct for them the neologism <Latinx.=
Watch Tuesday night for evidence of
polarization continuing in the form of
partisan uniformities and clusterings.
In 2020, Maine was the only state to
elect a senator from a party different
than the party of the state9s presidential
choice. In 1976, 26 percent of voters lived
in counties that gave at least 60 percent
of their vote to one presidential candi-
date. By 2016, 60 percent did. Polariza-
tion has intensified since 2014, when a
Pew Research Center report found
<92 percent of Republicans are to the
right of the median Democrat, and
94 percent of Democrats are to the left of
the median Republican.= This year, one
party controls the legislature and gover-
nor9s office in 37 states, up from 19 three
decades ago.
If on Tuesday Herschel Walker cap-
tures Georgia9s Senate seat or forces a
December run-off (if neither he nor the
incumbent, Raphael G. Warnock, attain
50 percent), we will know 2022 is
Year 6 PAHT (Post-<Access Hollywood=
Tape). That tape did not derail its
vulgarian star, and a Walker victory will
indicate that blinkered partisanship
now obliterates all other concerns,
including character. If this contest, and
Georgia9s gubernatorial rematch be-
tween Gov. Brian Kemp (R) and Stacey
Abrams, generate record-high voter
turnout, progressives9 (including
Abrams9s) denunciations of Georgia
Republicans9 <voter suppression= mea-
sures will . . . continue.
During Barack Obama9s presidency,
2009-2016, Democrats lost 1,042 feder-
al and state offices. One consequence of
this culling of the party9s rising talent
was Joe Biden9s late-in-life ascent. He
became eligible for Social Security
before millions of eligible 2024 voters
were born. If on Tuesday Democrats
lose the House, he will be the fifth
consecutive president to lose his party9s
House majority in a midterm election.
If, in addition, Senate control changes
for the seventh time in 30 years, Biden9s
presidency will be comatose. He will
become what, during the 2020 pri-
maries, he presented himself as, and
what he should have been content to be
seen as: <a bridge, not as anything else.=

Seeing a big literary award go
to a book you loved is satisfying
but, let9s face it, a little dull.
How much more exciting when
a prize draws your attention to
a great novel you9ve never
Ron heard about.
Charles That9s the special service
provided to most readers in the
United States this year by the Booker Prize,
Britain9s highest literary honor. <Oh William!,=
by beloved American novelist Elizabeth
Strout, was the bookmakers9 favorite, but at
the ceremony last month in London, the
judges chose <The Seven Moons of Maali
Almeida,= by Sri Lankan author Shehan
Karunatilaka.
For months, I9d been hearing tantalizing,
impossibly incongruous details about this
novel, which is only now being published in
the United States. It9s all true: <The Seven
Moons of Maali Almeida= is a murder mystery
and a zany comedy about military atrocities.
And it9s narrated by a dead man.
In the second person.
Such a novel doesn9t sound like it has a ghost
of a chance, but Karunatilaka is used to beating
the odds. Like Salman Rushdie, whose fiction
clearly influenced him, Karunatilaka started in
advertising. He self-published his debut novel,
<Chinaman: The Legend of Pradeep Mathew,=
only to see it picked up later by Penguin (U.K.)
and win the Commonwealth Prize.
<The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida=
followed an even more tortuous route to fame.
The manuscript, then called <Devil Dance,=
was shortlisted for a Sri Lankan prize in 2015.
Five years later, it was published by Penguin
India as <Chats With the Dead.= The positive
response to <Chinaman= should have opened
every door, but international publishers
balked, worried that the book9s Sri Lankan
politics and mythology were too confusing for
Western readers.
Finally, a small publisher in London called
Sort of Books agreed to take on the novel 4
with further revisions. Karunatilaka said in a
recent interview that he spent two years

reality and a daily ordeal. For Kennedy9s belea-
guered characters, it is background noise. How-
ever, peace is precarious: All it takes for tensions
to flare and violence to erupt is one wrong move,
one false allegiance 4 or one illicit love affair.
Kennedy9s protagonist is 24-year-old Cushla
Lavery. She lives with her mother, Gina, in a
small, <mixed= town outside Belfast. Her day
job is teaching young children at a Catholic
primary school. Some nights she helps her
older brother Eamonn at her family9s pub. The
place attracts all sorts: a ragtag band of regu-
lars; intimidating and untouchable British sol-
diers who throw their weight around; and lost
causes <who had drunk themselves out of
marriages and into unheated bedsits near the

The year 1989 has just ended when our
dearly departed narrator introduces himself
with a disappointing revelation:
<You wake up with the answer to the
question that everyone asks. The answer is
Yes, and the answer is Just Like Here But
Worse. That9s all the insight you9ll ever get. So

That voice 4 poking you in the face with its
brash cynicism 4 belongs to the ghost of Maali
Almeida, who was, until very recently, a
reckless photojournalist, a chronic gambler
and an unreliable boyfriend in Colombo, Sri
Lanka. Initially, the afterlife feels like an LSD
trip at a poorly staffed customer return center.
But once Maali gets to the front of a queue, he
learns that he9s dead. To prepare his spirit for

That makes a tight schedule for Maali and

things no one wanted him to see.
<They say the truth will set you free,= Maali
notes, <though in Sri Lanka the truth can land
you in a cage.= Knowing how dangerous his
homeland is, Maali always prided himself on
his discretion, a quality perfected as a closeted
gay man in a violently homophobic society.
But apparently, somebody wanted to
guarantee his silence.
Now, reduced to airy thinness, Maali will
find justice only if he can publish a secret
cache of his most incendiary pictures, <photos

<photos that could stop wars.= Mixed in among
his stash of erotic images is evidence of
horrific crimes that the Sri Lankan military
would kill to keep secret.
As nervous publishers suspected, the
context of those horrors will be obscure to
anyone who didn9t follow the complicated
details of Sri Lanka9s decades-long civil war,
involving government officials, Tamil Tigers,
Marxist militants, Indian peacekeepers and
more. But Karunatilaka addresses that

said that Vonnegut9s ability <to view tragedy

But there9s nothing merely aspirational or

more substantial plotline, charts Cushla9s rela-

entirely its own. As his last week on Earth slips
away, Maali must come to grips with the kind
of friend and lover he was, even as he flies
around Colombo, contending with a host of
ghouls and demons who hang off every car
and building like ectoplasmic kudzu. Some of
these vengeful phantoms 4 victims of torture,
assassination or mass killings 4 want to help
him; others want to devour him. Maali has to
figure out which is which, as he struggles to
solve the mystery of his own death.
His greatest challenge, though, is that it9s
not easy to influence human events or
communicate with the living once you9ve
transitioned to the spectral realm. Maali can
see and hear his friends9 growing peril as they
approach the truth of what happened to him.
But how can he lead them to the secret photos
that will expose officials who used him and
terrorized his countrymen?
And would that do any good anyhow? Has
evidence ever stopped a mass killing or
brought satisfaction to the dead?
As <The Seven Moons= swings wildly from
absurd comedy to grotesque tragedy,
Karunatilaka knocks down any grandiose
naivete about the power of journalism to effect
political change. This is a story in which the
demons 4 even the snarling hell-hounds with
faces trapped beneath their hairy hides 4
aren9t nearly as scary as the respected military
commanders. What9s most surprising, though,
is the book9s poignancy amid all its antics and
mythological caterwauling. Again and again,
some loony pratfall crashes into a burned
village, a murdered child, an incinerated
woman. These cacophonous tones remind us
that the real world, too, can be a ghastly farce.
The novel9s deeper themes reach beyond
politics to the problem of evil that threads
through every theology and moral code. What,
Karunatilaka asks, is our responsibility in the
face of cruelty that God couldn9t or wouldn9t
stop? His answer isn9t reassuring, but given the
irreducible tension between vengeance and
forgiveness, that9s all the insight you9ll ever get.

Hanging out ob the grid with the alienated class
BY J ENNIFER R EESE
N
othing motivates the journalist Ted
Conover like a no-trespassing sign,
whether figurative or nailed to a
barbed-wire fence and backed up
with an AK-47. Starting with <Roll-
ing Nowhere,= his 1984 account of hopping
trains with hoboes, Conover has made a career
of immersing himself in seemingly impene-
trable subcultures, then writing with sympa-
thy and insight about his experiences. In his
books he has chronicled traveling with undoc-
umented immigrants as they cross the border
from Mexico (<Coyotes,= 1987) and working as
a corrections officer at a maximum-security
prison (<Newjack,= 2000). The sparsely inhab-
ited prairie of southern Colorado might seem
an easy gig for a writer who once patrolled
Sing Sing, but the world Conover describes in
his shaggy but engrossing new book, <Cheap
Land Colorado: Off-Gridders at America9s
Edge,= is every bit as harsh in its own way.
Isolated, impoverished and traversed by ta-
rantulas, its human inhabitants alienated,
suspicious and well-armed, Colorado9s San
Luis Valley turns out to be the ideal Ted
Conover assignment.
In the 1970s, developers carved a region
of arid, mostly uninhabited prairie into tens
of thousands of five-acre lots and put them
up for sale for less than $2,000 apiece. They
used deceptively pretty photographs of the
nearby mountains as bait, and their marks
were people without much money who often
bought the dreamy-looking lots sight un-
seen. Other than grading some roads, what
the developers didn9t do was develop the
land. The new owners, unable to afford to
dig the wells, install the septic systems and
build the houses that would make for a
comfortable life on the prairie, abandoned
their lots in droves. Visiting in 2017, Conover
found scattered trailers, herds of feral
horses and a diverse, loosely connected
community of perhaps 1,000 people who
scratched out a living, often from growing
marijuana.
Conover decided to dig in, commuting
between Colorado and his home in New York
City between 2017 and 2022. Initially, he
parked a used camper on a lot owned by the
Grubers, an affable couple who shared a
mobile home with their five young daughters,
multiple dogs, a baby goat and a cockatoo. But
full immersion required that he too have <skin
in the game,= and eventually Conover bought
his own $15,000 expanse of sage and rattle-
snakes, upon which sat a decrepit mobile
home containing the late owner9s dentures, a
six-year-old carton of buttermilk and a loaded
Derringer. <I felt good,= he writes of his
humble life on the prairie. <I felt free and alive.
I liked the weather even when it was bad 4
perhaps especially when it was bad, because it
was so dramatic. I felt like taking notes on
everything I saw and learned. When a place
makes you feel like that, I think you should
pay attention.=
Pay attention he did. He set about winning
the trust of the prickly locals by volunteering
with an organization that delivered free fire-

you exit your vehicle, the person you are
visiting might not draw a gun. The bulk of the

hen Nathan Connolly and his wife,
W Shani Mott, saw that their home in
Baltimore had been appraised at
$472,000, they knew something was wrong.
They had bought it four years earlier, in 2017,
for $450,000. They had made $40,000 in reno-
vations. Home prices had been rising through-
out the pandemic. It just didn9t make sense. So
a few months after that first appraisal, they
applied to refinance again with another com-
pany and decided to try something different.
This time, the African American family re-
moved all the photographs of themselves and
had a White colleague meet the appraiser. The
second appraisal came back at $750,000. Same
house. Same location. Three-hundred-thou-
sand-dollar difference.
In <The Third Reconstruction: America9s
Struggle for Racial Justice in the Twenty-First
Century,= historian and professor Peniel E.
Joseph uses our country9s history on race and
racism to help make sense of such injustices.
Joseph argues that, until recently, America was
living through a Third Reconstruction: It dat-
ed, he argues, from the election of Barack
Obama in 2008 through the Jan. 6, 2021, insur-
rection at the Capitol. It was an era that echoed
the periods following the Civil War and the civil
rights movement, national moments of cultur-
al ambition that centered and then upended
the socially and legally enforced limits on Black
inclusion in the American experiment. And in
the wake of our Third Reconstruction, we face
the same kind of retrenchment that followed
those two previous periods.
Joseph9s consistent focus on racial inequities
hidden in plain sight makes this book searingly
relevant. Think, for example, of the water crises
in predominantly Black cities, such as Flint,
Mich., and Jackson, Miss. Or consider apprais-
al discrimination, which devalues Black-
owned homes. Or recall the ever-growing, al-
ways heartbreaking list of unarmed Black men
who have been killed by the police. Joseph aims

to distill these strands into a single narrative
that helps us understand why, decades after the
end of chattel slavery and Jim Crow, the viru-
lent racial animosity that helped produce the
Jan. 6 Capitol breach persists. <For Black Amer-

competing narratives collide. For Joseph, the

visions has produced enduring political divi-

drifters like Nick, <a drug user with a couple

Ken, <a mustached man in his late sixties

history of arrest for animal cruelty and
operating puppy mills. Then there was Don,
an elderly minister who came across as
<humble, polite, self-effacing= but was taken
into custody for failing to register as a
convicted sex offender. After his release,
Conover dropped by Don9s house to let him

door.
One of Conover9s strengths as a writer is
that he is willing to let his subjects <say their
piece.= He is wonderfully open to people9s
understanding of themselves, even when he
sees the world very differently. He patiently
listens to far-fetched rants and crackpot theo-
ries, registering skepticism but never letting
disagreements about politics or lifestyle de-
stroy his relationships or even define them.
Indeed, Conover seems reluctant to judge
or theorize much about what he saw and
heard in the San Luis Valley. Some might see
this paucity of analysis as a problem with

tives about Black dangerousness and criminal-
ity. Convict leasing, lynching and mass incar-
ceration are all redemptionist tools. Impres-
sively, Joseph weaves each of these schools of
belief through the narrative of his own life
growing up as a first-generation Haitian Amer-
ican. We see the ways reconstructionism has
expanded what was possible for him, and the
way redemptionism has constricted it.
After the First Reconstruction, Black Ameri-
cans were no longer enslaved, but the <Lost
Cause= of the Confederacy and its attendant
lies about Black inferiority and criminality
would justify decades of Jim Crow and other
oppressive ills. The Union had won the physical
war, but the narrative war had been lost. By
contrast, the reconstructionist narrative won
after the Second Reconstruction. From 1968
until the Supreme Court9s 2013 decision gut-
ting the Voting Rights Act in Shelby County v.
Holder, Joseph argues, we had a national con-
sensus on the importance of racial equality that
led to major civil rights advances, including the
election of Obama and the birth of the Black
Lives Matter movement. Joseph9s Third Recon-

degree invites the criticism. Early on, he
suggests he was drawn to the prairie to answer
big questions following the election of Donald
Trump: <The American firmament was shift-
ing in ways I needed to understand, and these
empty, forgotten places seemed an important
part of that,= he writes. <Just as the object is
defined by its borders & so is society defined
by the people out on the edge. Their 8outsider-
ness9 helps define the mainstream.=
If understanding recent political shifts and
the American mainstream was his goal, Con-
over fails spectacularly. But was that really his
aim? Excise a few grandiose mission state-
ments from this eye-opening book, and noth-
ing is lost 4 and nothing seems to be missing.
With his thorough and compassionate report-
age, Conover conjures a vivid, mysterious
subculture populated by men and women
with riveting stories to tell. To read <Cheap
Land Colorado= is to take a drive through a
disquieting, beguiling landscape with an
openhearted guide, windows down, snacks in
the cooler, no GPS. It9s a ride I didn9t want to
end.

A photo of a gallows and noose is displayed
as the House Jan. 6 committee holds a
hearing on June 16. Peniel E. Joseph
suggests that such scenes at the Capitol
recalled older instances of White violence
in opposition to multiracial democracy.
struction resumes this struggle, with the most
violent clash between reconstructionism and
redemptionism in decades.
Joseph ably traces the through-lines that con-
nect these three eras. This is especially pro-
nounced in his account of the Jan. 6 insurrection.
For many of us watching as the Capitol was
overrun, the siege surely seemed like an unprec-
edented incident. But it was no mistake that the
rioters strode through the Capitol waving Con-
federate flags. For Joseph, the noose and gallows
erected in front of the Capitol by the insurrection-
ists and the violent mobs spilling into the build-
ing were old wine in new bottles.
Joseph also plays out the consequences of his
analyses. When we recognize that mass incarcer-
ation is a tool of redemptionism, he shows, we can
view the Black people whom the system sweeps
up as political prisoners, not as a disposable
population of criminals. In the process, we can
recast them as the heroes in our national narra-
tive instead of the villains, and our criminal legal
system as the recent evolution of a race-based
caste system instead of a model of fairness.
Like a therapist, Joseph is trying to reveal
our past to help us explain our present national
situation. He is trying to remake the story that
we have internalized about ourselves 4 how we
have behaved, how we have atoned, what we
can learn and what steps we should take next. If
we instead rely on true, nuanced stories that
will allow us to confront harm with deeper
understanding, we will take more thoughtful
action and produce more just outcomes.
James Baldwin famously observed: <The
great force of history comes from the fact that
we carry it within us, are unconsciously con-
trolled by it in many ways, and history is
literally present in all that we do. It could
scarcely be otherwise, since it is to history that
we owe our frame of references and identities,
and our aspirations.= In <The Third Recon-
struction,= Joseph tries to narrate our history as
we live it, the better to understand the choices
we make even as we make them.

8Swann in Love9 obers a shortcut to Proust
This year the world has
honored the centenary of two
masterpieces of modern
literature, James Joyce9s
<Ulysses= and T.S. Eliot9s <The
Waste Land.= But this fall also
Michael marks two other important
Dirda anniversaries: the publication
on Sept. 19, 1922, of <Swann9s
Way,= the first volume of C.K. Scott
Moncrieff9s pioneering translation of Marcel
Proust9s <A la Recherche du Temps Perdu,=
followed, two months later, by the death of
Proust himself at age 51 on Nov. 18.
Many believe that <In Search of Lost Time=
4 a more accurate translation of the book9s
title than Scott Moncrieff 9s poetical
<Remembrance of Things Past= 4 is the 20th
century9s greatest novel. Others have found it
to be almost unreadable because of its length
(1.5 million words), its seemingly endless
serpentine sentences, and its author9s
microscopic attention to the nuances of
societal relationships and the subtleties of
the human heart.
Years ago, I took a college French course in
Proust during which I slowly worked my way
through the entire three-volume Pléiade
edition. In retrospect, I don9t seem to have
done much else that spring. But as with
Tolstoy9s <War and Peace= 4 another long
novel about families and the passage of time
4 I came to feel that its characters were more
real than the actual people around me. You
don9t so much read <In Search of Lost Time =
as live in it.
In particular, I remember finishing the
famous section <Swann in Love= (from
<Swann9s Way=) in Oberlin College9s Carnegie
Library just as the lights were being turned
off in the main reading room. I walked back
to my dorm in a daze, Charles Swann9s words
ringing in my ears: <To think that I wasted
years of my life, that I wanted to die, that I
had my greatest love, for a woman to whom I
wasn9t attracted, who wasn9t my type.=
This past week, I reread <Swann in Love= in
a new translation by Lucy Raitz, advertised
by Pushkin Press as a <stand-alone novella=
and the <perfect introduction to Proust.= In
many ways, both those claims are accurate:
All the rest of Proust9s magnum opus focuses
on its narrator9s childhood, friendships,
affairs of the heart and intermittent moments
of transcendent happiness, before he arrives
at the discovery of his vocation 4 which is
nothing less than to write the book we have
been reading, to redeem through art all the
wasted years of a dilettantish life.
Nevertheless, <Swann in Love= isn9t quite
as excisable as it might seem. Some of its
characters were already introduced in
<Combray,= the opening section of the novel,
which describes the narrator9s family and
early life. Moreover, all its men and women
will continue to appear throughout the book,
as the passing years reveal deeper layers to
the vulgar salon hostess Madame Verdurin,
Swann9s friend the Baron de Charlus, the
alluring Odette and even an unnamed artist
who turns out to have been the young Elstir,
later the greatest painter of his generation.
Above all, though, Swann9s obsession with

(Grand Central, Nov. 1)
Three years of panic attacks have kept Mer-

ping online and exercising on her staircase. A
visit from Tom, a persistent volunteer from a
charity that reaches out to anyone who needs a
friend, disrupts her comforting routine of cook-

enough of a push to help her understand and
address the trauma that has kept her isolated.

<Swann in Love= is one section of Marcel Proust9s 1.5 million-word masterpiece.
Odette provides the template for all the
subsequent love affairs in the book. In other
words, this Pushkin paperback would have
benefited from a contextual introduction and
at least a brief afterword to make clear that
this <novella= should really end with the
words <To be continued.=
Here, though, is how it begins.
One evening, Charles Swann, a wealthy,
charming man about town and an habitue of
the highest ranks of society, is introduced to
Odette de Crécy at a theater by a friend who
quietly suggests that he might have a good
time with her. The middle-aged Swann has
already enjoyed many affairs, with women of
all classes, and at first feels relatively
indifferent to Odette. Though she has large,
beautiful eyes, <her profile was too sharp, her
skin too delicate, her cheekbones too high,
her features too drawn.= What9s more, Swann,
an aesthete and authority on Vermeer, finds
her unintelligent. Nonetheless, Odette seems

<Foster,= by Claire Keegan
(Grove, Nov. 1)
Keegan9s enchanting novella centers on a
child in Ireland whose Da leaves her with
relatives who have more resources. In addition
to the food and clothing they lovingly provide,
the Kinsellas are generous with their time and
offer their young charge warmth and respect,
which were in short supply at the home of her
exhausted parents. Their bond builds as sum-
mer progresses, but there are unexpressed
emotions in even the most loving households
that can be hard for a child to comprehend.
Keegan9s unaffected narrative is a study of
familial heartache and generosity.

<feeling that one already possesses the heart

Because Odette spends her evenings at
Madame Verdurin9s, Swann stoically endures

climber and her sycophantic hangers-on.
There one night he hears a violin and piano

<The Lemon,= by S.E. Boyd
(Viking, Nov. 8)
When bartender-turned-writer John Doe9s
first book was a hit, agents made big promises
for his future. His lack of interest made him all
the more enticing to Hollywood and propelled
him to stardom as a culinary television host.
His untimely death in a Belfast hotel provides
another opportunity for those in his orbit to
further their own agendas. There9s his agent,
whose comfortable retirement relies on Doe9s
faultless legacy, and a reporter, who fabricates
a connection with Doe to save her job. Doe9s
friend, a world-famous chef who discovered
the body, just wants to get back to cooking, but
the unbalanced hotel worker with a camera
seems to have other ideas. Boyd, a pseudonym

they refer to as the <Celebrity-Death Industrial

<The Twist of a Knife,=
by Anthony Horowitz (Harper, Nov. 15)

brings back brusque ex-detective Daniel Haw-

. SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 6 , 2022
to give up, he almost literally bumps into her
outside the Maison Dorée, where Odette tells
him she9s just had supper. He drives her home
in his carriage, en route shyly asks to adjust
the disarranged orchids at her bodice, and
that night they make love for the first time.
Before long, the once-blase Swann
experiences what the novelist Stendhal, in his
treatise <On Love,= calls <crystallization=: No
aspect of Odette now seems less than utterly,
completely enchanting. <He didn9t contradict
her vulgar ideas, or the bad taste that she
showed in everything, and which, indeed, he
loved as he loved everything about her.=
But one evening over dinner Swann
detects a knowing glance passing between
Odette and another Verdurin guest, the
Comte de Forcheville. From then on, he starts
to wonder about those occasions when this
Botticelli-like beauty sent him home early
because of tiredness. Was she secretly
expecting another visitor later on? Could she
be deceiving him with Forcheville or other
men? Or, as an anonymous letter insinuates,
even with women?
Among the pleasures in reading Proust is
his constant recourse to unexpected similes,
such as his likening jealousy to <an octopus
stretching out first one, then a second, then a
third tentacle= as it chokes the sufferer. In
vain Swann tries to account for Odette9s
movements at all times of the day and night.
Suspicions increasingly torment him. Odette,
though, soon recognizes that Swann is
hooked, gladly accepts his gifts, and more and
more treats him as chattel. Before long, the
once-debonair man of fashion feels grateful
for the least crumb of affection.
Let me pause there. I9ve skipped over many
details and there9s much more to come, but
the real gift of <Swann in Love= isn9t its plot so
much as its rapturous intensity and the
wholly immersive experience of inhabiting
Swann9s consciousness. Yearning,
possessiveness, jealousy, deception, self-
torture, the impossibility of truly knowing
another person 4 these turn out to be the
unhappy and recurrent elements of Proustian
love.
Still, in the midst of his misery, Swann
happens to attend a grand soiree, where his
creator 4 who is also a great comic novelist 4
presents an extended satirical tableau of
Parisian high society. There, just as he9s about
to leave the party, Swann unexpectedly hears
the hired musicians play Vinteuil9s sonata
and this time recognizes that <the feelings
Odette had had for him would never return,
and that his hopes of happiness would not be
realized.=
Yet the story of Charles Swann and Odette
de Crécy is nowhere near over. However,
you9ll need to read not just <Swann in Love=
but the rest of <In Search of Lost Time= to
learn what happens to this ill-matched
couple. You9ll be surprised.

A forgotten time
of crisis that tested
our democracy
BY R OBERT G . K AISER
oo many Americans are indifferent
T to their own history and know too
little about it. This ignorance makes
the present more baffling than it
needs to be. Adam Hochschild has
written a fine book about a grim period a
century ago that has largely disappeared from
national memory but seems painfully relevant
to America in the 2020s. <American Midnight:
The Great War, a Violent Peace, and Democra-
cy9s Forgotten Crisis= describes vividly a time
when racism, white nationalism, and anti-for-
eign and anti-immigrant sentiment were ram-
pant. Reading it is almost therapeutic. Realiz-
ing (thanks to this book) that American democ-
racy survived that dark moment and a decade
later began half a century of democratic renew-
al made this reader more hopeful than he has
been in quite a while.
Hochschild9s account demonstrates the folly
of believing that Donald Trump and the era he
has given us are departures from normal
trends in American history. What9s normal in
our past is the American vulnerability to mythi-
cal enemies, demagogues and ignoramuses.
These dangerous forces abounded in the years
Hochschild describes, from 1917 to 1921.
We do remember one event of that era:
World War I. For the European powers involved
in that killing spree, the war began in 1914, but
an isolationist America remained aloof until
April 1917, when President Woodrow Wilson
finally declared war on Germany and its allies.
Seventeen months later, after millions of Amer-
ican doughboys had taken up arms in Europe
and 117,000 were killed, the Germans surren-
dered.
Victory in the war came at a high price that
we9ve chosen to forget. The war provided justi-
fication for a brutal period in America that
featured <mass imprisonments, torture, vigi-
lante violence, censorship, killings of Black
Americans & [and] a war against democracy at
home,= Hochschild writes. His powerful 12-
page prologue grabs readers by their lapels and
confronts them with an ugly America sharply
at odds with rosy, patriotic versions.
The nation9s delayed entry to the war stimu-
lated intrigue and violence in the United States
that set Americans sympathetic to Germany
and those sympathetic to our traditional allies
in Britain and France at odds. Wilson at first
sought to stand apart from the propagandizing
on both sides, and he waged a 1916 reelection
campaign on the ultimately misleading slogan
<He Kept Us Out of War.= In 1917, when the
Germans began indiscriminate submarine
warfare in the Atlantic that sank American
ships, Wilson went all in for war.

Wilson is at the center of Hochschild9s tale.
He is one of the most complex, contradictory
figures in American history. Raised in Augusta,
Ga., by a family that supported the Confedera-
cy, Wilson clung to a Southern segregationist9s
ugly racial views all his life. The first and last
holder of a PhD to occupy the White House, he
was the president of Princeton University be-
fore becoming governor of New Jersey in 1911.
As governor and then as president (elected in
1912), he was a progressive reformer on eco-
nomic issues and an internationalist. But once
he led America into war, he became a dedicated
jingoist. Hochschild calls out his many short-
comings.
Wilson signed the Espionage Act in 1917 and
the Sedition Act in 1918, two laws that allowed
restrictions on freedom of speech that were
draconian by today9s standards. Once America
joined the war effort, Wilson had no apparent
qualms about imprisoning dissident Ameri-
cans, including the Socialist Party candidate
who had run against him for president in 1912
and won 6 percent of the vote, Eugene V. Debs.
Debs was sentenced to 10 years in prison for
making a speech in 1918 that the Wilson admin-
istration interpreted as discouraging partici-
pation in the war. Debs9s sentence was com-
muted by Wilson9s Republican successor, War-
ren G. Harding, in 1921.
Wilson allowed his postmaster general, Al-
bert S. Burleson, a former Texas congressman,
to deny left-wing and pacifist magazines and
newsletters use of the U.S. mail9s special low
rates for printed matter, which forced several
widely read publications out of business. He
banned a publication called the Gaelic Ameri-
AMERICAN can because it favored Irish independence
MIDNIGHT from America9s ally Britain. Burleson9s chief
The Great War, legal officer, William Lamar, explained war-
a Violent time censorship to Oswald Garrison Villard,
Peace, and editor of the New York Evening Post. <I know
Democracy9s exactly what I am after,= Lamar said, <pro-Ger-

cially when promoted by socialists, were the
most inflammatory domestic issues of these
years. Anti-union sentiment was ferocious. The
primary target of antilabor hostility was the
Industrial Workers of the World (the Wob-
blies), a union that tried to organize female,
Black and unskilled workers ignored by the
American Federation of Labor. The prosperous
classes saw the IWW as a grave threat to the
country, one much aggravated by the Bolshevik
Revolution in Russia in 1917. That unexpected
event set off the first great red scare in the

infamous <Palmer raids= of November 1919 and
January 1920 rounded up and imprisoned
thousands of left-wing activists, Blacks and
union activists. The perpetrators of the eight
bombings were never identified.
Palmer9s raids assured him a place in Ameri-
can history, but another contribution he made
to his country may have been more consequen-
tial. As he scrambled to respond to the bomb-
ings of June 2, Palmer decided he needed a new
<Radical Division= in the Justice Department.
As chief of the division, he chose a 24-year-old
Washington native already working in the de-
partment. Thus began the career of J. Edgar
Hoover, who would serve eight other adminis-
trations in various capacities, ultimately as
director of the FBI, his tenure ending when he
died in 1972.
Palmer appointed Hoover on Aug. 1, 1919.
Two months later, Wilson suffered a massive,
debilitating stroke and never really performed
the duties of president again. The country
wasn9t informed how seriously the stroke had
disabled him, one of the great scandals of
American history.
Wilson9s condition made it easy for Palmer to
pursue the presidential ambitions he had long
harbored. He and Hoover concocted an ambi-
tious plan to round up thousands of new
American immigrants and deport them, a ploy
obviously intended to appeal to the anti-immi-
grant sentiments then flourishing in America.
Hochschild, who has written 10 previous
books, adeptly juggles multiple narrative
threads. His tale does include an unexpected
happy ending that might encourage contempo-
rary American readers.
With Wilson permanently sidelined after his
stroke, Hoover and Palmer felt free to arrest
and deport thousands of immigrants in the
most aggressive plan since slavery for sup-
pressing residents of the United States. But a
legal <roadblock,= to use Hochschild9s word,
disrupted their effort.
Under the law, deportations of immigrants
living in the United States legally had to be
approved by the Labor Department. The acting
secretary of labor, Louis F. Post, was a liberal
civil libertarian and a founder of the NAACP.
That Post, who served as assistant secretary of
labor, found himself exercising the authority of
the secretary of labor to approve or block
deportations was a kind of dumb luck. He did
not shy away from the opportunity. He blocked
Hoover and Palmer from carrying out their
plan.
Palmer had pumped up fears of a possibly
revolutionary uprising of socialists and trade
unionists on May 1, 1920, but May Day passed
quietly, without an American revolution 4 and
without mass deportations, either. Like the
Republican officeholders who blocked Donald
Trump9s efforts to upend the results of the 2020
presidential election, Post rose to the occasion
with firm dignity and determination. Harding,
elected to succeed Wilson in 1920, abandoned
the fierce anti-immigrant and anti-socialist
crusade. Calm was restored. Soon, as is our
custom in this unique country, we turned the
page and found ourselves swept up in the
Roaring Twenties, dancing the Charleston and
drinking illegal gin.

EVERETT FROM B1
4 his wife, the writer Danzy Senna, and the
couple9s two teenage sons 4 but he does not
sweat writing. <I mean it9s just books,= he said.
Part of what he means is the opposite of how
that sounds 4 that it9s only the books he cares
about, rather than, say, fame and especially
fortune. <Some people just want to make mon-
ey writing,= he said. <I think they9re insane.=
Everett, who9s been a professor of creative
writing at the University of Southern Califor-
nia since 1998, does not tour or maintain a
presence on social media. He is grateful to his
longtime publisher, Graywolf, for sharing his
priorities. <Nobody there talks to me about
marketing because my eyes glaze over,= he said.
He does not read reviews. While Everett9s long
career, which began with <Suder,= in 1983,
makes him the consummate writer, people
who often interact with authors will recognize
that these kinds of pronouncements also make
him the anti-writer.
If his dramatic lack of careerism is singular,
so too is the motivation behind his work. <I9m
interested in ideas, and I try to find vehicles for
them,= he explained. He once said, <I would
love to write a book everyone hated.=
In this he has not been successful. <Dr. No=
follows <Telephone= (2020), a finalist for the
Pulitzer Prize, and <The Trees= (2021), a grue-
some, funny and profound murder mystery
about lynching in the United States that was
shortlisted for this year9s Booker Prize. While
not a bestseller in his home country, Everett
has a loyal global readership and is beloved in
France in particular. There is a Percival Everett
International Society.
In case you9re not a member, <Dr. No,= his
23rd novel, is as good an entry as any to the
particular and peculiar world of his fiction,
where a reader can take nothing for granted.

New York comes to life

BY V IVIAN S HAW
K. Jemisin9s new novel, <The World
N. We Make,= is the kind of book you lose
an entire day to, hour after hour
going by unnoticed, and emerge shaken and
dazzled on the other end. The writing is clear
and visceral and intense. It9s some of the most
brilliant, unapologetic speculative fantasy
I9ve read in years.
Like its prequel, <The City We Became=
(2020), <The World We Make= is a love letter
to New York. (<City= need not be read to enjoy
<World,= but it helps.) Jemisin conjures up a
city embodied and represented by physical
avatars who must balance being people,
having jobs and families and real lives, with
the vast metaphysical responsibility of being
the city itself.
The novel is also an exploration of what it
means to be part of something greater than
oneself, and a fantasy built around the idea
of fighting back against an erasing, destruc-
tive xenophobia that seeks to remove indi-
vidual identity and replace it with blank
enforced compliance 4 or with utter de-
struction. Jemisin takes the conflict between
diversity and tolerance on one hand and
malevolent erasure on the other and lets us
imagine what it would be like if that conflict
could be resolved 4 if that war could be won

If the unexpected always happens in Ever-
ett9s individual novels, the variety across the
work also astonishes. His corpus includes

As always, it is a slippery investigation of
identity. Characters include the <racially am-
biguous= villain John Milton Bradley Sill; his
White servant, DeMarcus; and a jocular James
Earl Ray. The novel also includes a delirious
mass-unmasking scene. Almost no one in the
book is who they say they are, except a one-
legged dog named Trigo, the moral center of
the novel. (<I9ve never had an animal betray me
or lie to me,= Everett said.)
Another element of <Dr. No= that Everett
readers will find familiar: a brainy, solitary,
melancholic Black protagonist, content living
in his own mind until some mess comes knock-
ing at his door to hijack his life. The novel9s
ending is also pure Everett: chaos, inscrutabili-

Everett connects his humor to what he identi-
fies as a particularly African American aesthet-
ic of irony. <Approaching oppression with irony
is how people survive,= he said.
Other literary models in this tradition, ac-
cording to Everett, include the sardonic post-
war novelist Chester Himes and Zora Neale
Hurston, whose humor arguably created a
school of criticism.
In what Everett calls an inversion of the
<nuclear stereotyping= of Black people in
American popular culture, <The Trees= opens
with a savage sendup of a White family in
Mississippi. The Bryant boys, ages 3 to 10, refer
to their mother as <Hot Mama Yeller, the CB
handle she used when she chatted with truck-
ers late at night after the family was asleep.=
Their father, Wheat Bryant, cannot be said to
be between jobs because he <had held only one
job in his whole life, so he wasn9t between
anything.= Everett has heard that some White
readers, men in particular, have taken it as <a
personal affront,= but he seems deeply unboth-
ered. Hurston and Himes probably would have
loved it.
Everett also aligns the blend of wit and rage
in his work with the social commentary of
groundbreaking 20th-century Black comic
performers, naming Richard Pryor, Dick Greg-
ory and Moms Mabley, whom he considers <the
most underrated comedic talent.=
Everett, if not exactly underrated, is certain-
ly not as well-known as he should be; evidently
he9s too busy writing to care. When I asked how
a reader should move from the violent weighti-
ness of <The Trees= to the cloak-and-dagger
shenanigans of <Dr. No,= he said, almost cheer-
fully, <You should put one down and forget it
and read the next one.=
Asali Solomon9s most recent novel, <The Days of
Afrekete,= was released in paperback last month.
her, stubborn as Staten Island itself.
The novel approaches viciously bigoted
beliefs head-on. Jemisin writes about preju-
dices such as racism, transphobia, homopho-
bia and xenophobia because they are an
inescapable part of the current world 4 and
yet this story balances the only-too-real hate
with genuine kindness. Over and over the
book quietly offers examples of total strang-
ers who without hesitation or question step
up to help someone in need. These people
aren9t especially saintly; they9re just people.
They9re kind without meaning to be; their
action comes from fellow-feeling, of being
part of a larger whole, of being New Yorkers 4
and that is part of why the city is what it is,
glorious and lush and awful and alive. It
embraces nuance, shades of gray in a world
that9s never been stark black and white no
matter how much the hostile entities want it
to be. (These bad guys aren9t interested in
negotiation or discussion of any kind: They
want you to be dead, right now, and it is
precisely this inflexibility that contains the
seeds of their defeat.)
<The World We Make= is a satisfying ending
to Jemisin9s Great Cities duology. The author
mentions in the acknowledgments how real
life 4 inevitably, inescapably 4 involved itself
in her creative process, how the flow of
<World= changed based on the way the real
world was being affected by politics and the
pandemic. It9s a reminder that all stories are
shaped by the environment in which they are
being created and told 4 and it makes the
book9s hopeful conclusion that much more
satisfying.

A
proposed 2.7-mile bike lane on
Connecticut Avenue NW is pitting
some residents and business own-
ers against bicycle advocates as the
District advances plans intended to boost
bike safety at the expense of vehicle lanes
and parking.
The $4.6 million project, spearheaded
by Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D), would
include a northbound and southbound
bike lane along a corridor that carries
32,000 cars daily. It would cut lane capac-
ity for vehicles in half during the peak
direction of rush-hour travel and signifi-
cantly reduce parking availability.
As D.C. embarks on plans to add 30
miles of protected bike lanes citywide by
2025, it9s facing growing resistance from
residents who worry the lanes will make
driving and parking more challenging.
The projects are focused on connecting to
neighborhoods in each ward and are key to
the city9s multimodal transportation
plans, which include more bike lanes
spanning beyond the downtown core.
The Connecticut Avenue project is de-
pending on battle-tested incum-
bents like those in the 2nd and
7th congressional districts if they
want to retain any hope of keep-
ing Congress, and Republicans
chomping at the bit to oust them.
With major investments from
the national GOP, Republicans
are hopeful of a red wave the size
of the blue one that carried
Spanberger, Luria and Rep. Jen-
nifer Wexton (D-Va.) into office
four years ago.
<That red wave has got its
headwaters right in the com-

The District9s public school sys-

safety protocols a week after a bus
driver crashed a school bus of
Murch Elementary students and
was charged with driving while
intoxicated.
System leaders are conducting
a review of the district9s transpor-
tation companies, a process that
includes making sure drivers
have the correct licenses and en-
dorsements, checking drivers9
traffic records and ensuring vehi-
cles have the proper equipment.
The district also will perform
safety reviews of its vendors on a
quarterly basis, rather than annu-
ally, Lewis Ferebee, the district9s
chancellor, said.
Individual schools are also re-
quired to make sure bus drivers
have valid commercial driver9s
licenses, as well as complete other
items on a new safety checklist
before sending students out on
trips, officials said.
<We know we had a contractor
that didn9t have all the measures
in place that we think would have

network of protected bike lanes
and facilitate bike commuting
between upper Northwest and
downtown. Plans call for a corri-
dor with less vehicle traffic and
better access for pedestrians, bi-
cyclists and transit users. About
100 bicyclists use segments of the
route daily, according to project
documents.
Supporters say the lanes 4
stretching from Calvert Street
NW in Woodley Park to Legation
Street NW in Chevy Chase 4
would be a key piece of infra-
structure to provide a safe route
for cyclists, encourage more bike
travel and help the city reach
environmental goals. But some
Connecticut Avenue residents
and business owners say the
lanes would create hazards for
pedestrians, exacerbate a parking
shortage in commercial districts
and send more traffic onto neigh-
borhood roads.
<Why are we doing all this for

the changes would result in thou-

Because travel capacity would
drop, city officials estimate as
many as 7,000 vehicles would
divert to other routes, including
Broad Branch Road NW to the

routes could handle the spillover

As Purple Line work resumes, gentriûcation ûght is on
BY K ATHERINE S HAVER
In 2013, four years before con-
struction started on Maryland9s
Purple Line, a group of academ-
ics, planners, nonprofits and
elected officials began thinking
about the economic develop-
ment the 21 rail stations would
bring 4 and the inequities likely
to follow.
State and local officials have
said they hope the Purple Line
will transform aging, auto-
dependent suburbs, particularly
in Prince George9s County, into
vibrant hubs of new apartment
buildings, stores and restaurants
4 all within walking distance of
light-rail stations.
But the public-private group
known as the Purple Line Corri-
dor Coalition has long eyed cau-
tionary tales from other new
transit lines. Without interven-
tion, the coalition says, rising
land values around stations lead
to higher rents and price out lo-
cal businesses and residents, in-
cluding lower-income workers
most in need of faster, more reli-
able mass transit.
The coalition, based at the
University of Maryland9s Nation-
al Center for Smart Growth Re-
search, has analyzed how to pre-
serve affordable housing and
small businesses along the 16-
mile rail alignment between
Prince George9s and Montgomery
counties.
As major construction on the
long-delayed Purple Line re-
sumes this fall under a new lead
contractor, The Washington Post
spoke with Gerrit Knaap, the co-
alition9s founder and the smart
growth center9s director. The in-
terview has been edited for
length and clarity.
Q: Why did the coalition begin
focusing on gentrification issues
in the Purple Line corridor so
long before the light-rail line
months over similar projects in
Columbia Heights, Capitol Hill,
Dupont Circle and the K Street
NW corridor.
Anti-bike-lane groups have
sprung up in recent months, in-
cluding SaveConnecticutAve.org
and the D.C. Coalition on DDOT
Bike Plans, whose leaders say is
made up of residents <fed up=
with a powerful bike lobby and
the city9s decisions to put bike
lanes where they aren9t wanted.
The District Department of
Transportation9s proposal would
reduce to four the number of
travel lanes in the corridor, then a
protected bike lane would be
added in each direction, with
parking and loading zones re-
moved on one side. More than
300 parking spaces would be
eliminated, according to a DDOT
analysis.
DDOT said it is listening to
concerns 4 mostly about disrup-
tions to parking, traffic and load-
ing zones 4 and plans to incorpo-
rate the responses into each pro-
posal. The Connecticut Avenue
project also would include new
left- and right-turn lanes at some
intersections, the relocation of
bus stops to safer spots, pedestri-
an refuge islands, curb exten-
sions and the prohibition of right
turns on red lights. It is expected
to advance to the design phase in
the spring.
The changes would be the lat-
est shift in the corridor. This past
spring, the city removed revers-
ible rush-hour lanes between the
Woodley Park and Chevy Chase
neighborhoods, which had been a
source of confusion for drivers.
When those lanes were in place,
rush-hour drivers had four lanes
of travel in the peak direction.
Three lanes are now available
during rush, dropping to two if
bike lanes are added. The city
also reduced the speed limit from
30 mph to 25 mph.
DDOT Director Everett Lott
called protected bike lanes <a top
priority= for the agency. The Con-
necticut Avenue project, he said,
would provide <increased system
reliability, improved accessibility,
congestion management, afford-
able travel options, and, most
importantly, safety.=
Transportation officials say the
bike lane is in line with the city9s
goal to reduce traffic fatalities.

would open, and even four years
before construction started?
A: It takes a lot of lead time to
change the urban fabric. Land-
market changes take a long time.
Price changes occur more quick-
ly. We9ve begun to see housing
prices and rents rise in the Pur-
ple Line corridor already and
have for a number of years. And
obviously if you9re going to try to
preserve affordable housing and
small businesses, you need to do
that before prices start to rise too
quickly. Therefore you need to
get a head start on it, not to men-
tion you need to have the policies
and resources in places to help
businesses and residents during
the construction period.
Q: What was it about the Purple
Line corridor that prompted con-
cerns about gentrification?

the removal of parking would be
another major blow.
<Who is going to carry their

Connecticut Avenue at rush hour
on a Friday night? It9s not going to
happen,= Kotchenreuther said.
<Who9s going to pick up the
vacuum cleaner from my friend

Longtime resident Mark
Rosenman, a member of the Save
Connecticut Avenue group, has
collected about three-dozen sig-
natures from businesses in one
block of Cleveland Park. He said
small businesses have made it
clear that parking is essential to
their success.
Liz Winchell, who owns the All
Fired Up studio a few storefronts
away from Kotchenreuther9s, said
the lack of parking has been a
problem since her business
opened in 2004. Although cus-
tomers come by all modes of
transportation, including the
Metro station a few steps away,
she said many families with chil-
dren drive for pottery, painting

them very quickly.
Obviously, Langley Park was a
place where this vulnerability is
certainly strong. Langley Park,

others and are communities of
color. So there9s that vulnerabili-
ty.
The other is that the Purple
Line is going to connect four ma-
jor Metro stops, and it9s going to
provide access to places between
those Metro lines. Between Silver
Spring and College Park is prob-
ably the area with the greatest
potential for changes in land-
market dynamics, and then be-
tween College Park and New Car-
rollton as well. So you have some
very vulnerable communities, as
well as pretty significant changes
in transportation accessibility.
Q: What about more affluent ar-
eas along the Purple Line, such
as between Bethesda and Silver
Spring? Those aren9t necessarily
vulnerable communities, but do
you see them changing as well?
A: I see them changing less. First
of all, the change in [transit] ac-
cessibility is going to be slightly
less there. It9s already a very
highly accessible corridor. The
difference the Purple Line is go-
ing to make is not going to be as
large in those places that are al-
ready pretty heavily served by
transit.
Q: What development changes
have you seen so far in the Pur-
ple Line corridor?
A: The development on the
ground is largely just beginning.
We9re in the construction phase
first question people often ask
when booking an event, she said,
is <what9s the parking situation
like?=
<The city has clearly stated the
vision for D.C. to have bike lanes
and it9s happening whether peo-
ple like it or not. But they are not
looking holistically at the situa-
tion,= she said. <Have bike lanes,
but put them in places that are
safe and don9t contribute to the
already problematic flow of traf-
fic.=
The four Advisory Neighbor-
hood Commissions that cover the
corridor passed resolutions in
support of the bike lanes. D.C.
Council member Mary M. Cheh
(D-Ward 3) also supports the
plan. The Washington Area Bicy-
clist Association is among groups
pushing back on the opposition,
while some residents are distrib-
uting signs indicating the project
will boost safety.
<There9s no safe way to ride
right now in this part of the city,=
said Josh Rising, a cyclist and
founder of the Ward 3 Bicycle
Advocates. The proposal would
bring the first major protected
bike lane to the city9s most afflu-
ent ward, which currently has
two blocks of protected bike lanes
in front of a private school off
Wisconsin Avenue NW.
DDOT is also planning for bike
lanes in other portions of Ward 3,
including along Arizona Avenue
NW, Western Avenue NW, and at
Tunlaw Road and New Mexico
Avenue NW, from Calvert Street
to Nebraska Avenue NW.
Cheh said the goal is to create a
larger network of bike lanes in
the city outside downtown. She
[of the Purple Line], so the con-
struction disruption is happen-
ing now. I9d say we9re seeing
probably the largest change at
the New Carrollton Metro sta-
tion. That place is really trans-
forming rather dramatically be-
cause of the [station there for]
MARC [commuter rail] and the
Metro, as well as the Purple Line.
A lot of stuff is happening now in
College Park. In Silver Spring,
we9re seeing continued activity,
though how much of that is relat-
ed to the Purple Line is a little
hard to say.
Q: A lot of us think about transit-
oriented development as high-
rise apartment or condo build-
ings with coffee shops and high-
end stores at the ground level. Is
that the kind of development you
see coming along the Purple
Line, or will it be different in
these more suburban locations?
A: No, it9s definitely going to be
different. You9re not going to see
high-rises at these Purple Line
stations in between the Metro
stations. That9s just not going to
happen. The market isn9t there
for it and even the regulatory en-
vironment wouldn9t allow it cur-
rently. It9s going to be more mid-
rises, more smaller-scale. We9re
going to be thinking about strip
malls. I don9t think it9s helpful to
have strip malls near Purple Line
stations. If we can get them to in-
crease to two-, three- or four-sto-
ry density, that might be a good
thing. And, of course, you9d want
them to be as mixed-use as possi-
ble. I don9t think anyone envi-
sions the Manhattan-ization of
the Purple Line corridor.
Q: Some activists, particularly in
heavily Latino areas like Langley
Park, worry that their communi-
ties could lose their international
feel. How can those cultures be
preserved amid new develop-
ment?

confident the city can work with
residents to find solutions.
<DDOT has to work with them

benefits of having the bike lane
and not be too intrusive into
loading spots or parking spots. A
sensible arrangement can be
worked out,= she said. <But ulti-
mately, we want to have many
more miles of protected bike

DDOT said it will consider
strategies such as reducing maxi-
mum parking times in some loca-
tions to 30 or 60 minutes, which
would increase parking turnover.
The city also will study possible
pickup and drop-off zones on
adjacent side streets.

A: One of the new minors we9ve
just created at the University of
Maryland is called <placemak-
ing,= and the coalition is going to
work very closely with this place-
making initiative. Obviously be-
ing sensitive to the existing cul-
tural assets of a community is
where you start. Also engaging
with residents who currently live
there to identify their aspirations
and their cultural preferences is
key. As an organization, we9re
making considerable efforts to
make sure the placemaking ef-
forts are culturally sensitive and
will preserve the existing cultur-
al assets along the Purple Line.
Q: How can lower-rent housing
be preserved as demand to live
near future rail stations increas-
es? How difficult is that to do?
A: It9s very hard and there9s not
one answer. You have to be a bit
opportunistic. One way is to pre-
serve the existing affordable
housing stock, which you can do
by buying it or having rights-of-
first refusal policies. & On one
hand you9re trying to preserve
the existing housing stock. On
the other, you9re trying to in-
crease the housing stock through
affordable housing construction.
Another way is to try to change
the existing development regula-
tions, either by upzoning [with
more density] or by policies that
enable middle-income housing
to be competitive.
Q: How have the Purple Line sta-
tions9 suburban locations led to

ing streets for cyclists and pedes-

dent and cyclist, said he supports

ments but questions having cycle
tracks along Connecticut Avenue
and other major thoroughfares.
He and his wife, who are retired,
have lived in Chevy Chase since
1985 and worry they won9t be able
to find parking near restaurants.
Mayer learned about the proj-
ect in the spring, four months
after Bowser announced the city
was moving the project forward.
He said the city advanced the
project during the pandemic,
when residents were unable to
meet with local leaders and
weren9t following the issue close-
ly.
<We are not against bike lanes,=
he said. <There are a lot of places

built for cars. If you introduce a
light-rail line fundamentally de-
signed to promote a different
kind of travel behavior pattern,
there are a lot of changes that
need to be made. We9ve identi-
fied a lot of places along the Pur-
ple Line corridor where the pe-
destrian and bike access really
needs quite a bit of work.
Q: What are some examples of
road improvements needed
around the future rail stations?
A: We did something we call ac-
cessibility mapping to see how
far and safely you could walk
from a [future Purple Line] sta-
tion into the neighborhoods. We
found there are tremendous ob-
stacles. You9ve got to cross six-
lane streets in some places. You
have fenced barriers in some
places. Sidewalks have very little
protection from the traffic. Some
right-turn lanes allow cars to
drive at high speeds and turn re-
ally quickly. There are just things
in the design of the roadways
near the Purple Line that need to
be improved quite a bit to ensure
people can get to the stations
safely.
Q: What else should people be
thinking about as the Purple
Line is built?
A: The Purple Line corridor is in
for a change, and it9s really im-
portant that that change is man-
aged to promote equitable devel-
opment and that we do our best
to try to prevent displacement in
the corridor. I think one of the
real underlying themes of the
Purple Line Corridor Coalition
has been equitable development.
Hold us to account as to whether
we can foster transit-oriented de-
velopment that increases rider-
ship and does all the good things
that transit ridership does while
preserving the existing vulner-
able communities in the corri-
dor. That9s our mission.

This catchy TV tune9s offbeat origin
I was reminded
recently of a
television show
from the 1950s
by the name of
John <The Early
Kelly's Show.= It aired
Washington around 4 p.m.
daily during the
week in
Washington. It featured very
distinctive theme music at the
start and end. My next oldest
brother would sit and just
listen to the music then go
about his other business. He
was truly hypnotized by it. It
was a very catchy tune. I9d love
to know the name.
4 Greg Denevan, Berwyn,
Md.
The instrumental was called
<The Syncopated Clock,= and it
was written in 1945 in
Arlington, Va., by a composer
(and onetime Army intelligence
officer) named Leroy Anderson.
But before we get to that, let9s
explore television in the 1950s.
Television then was a medium
hungry for content. TV stations
needed flickering images they
could broadcast into viewers9
homes. Plenty of this content
was piled up in a magical place
called Hollywood: old movies.
But executives at major
studios weren9t sure they
wanted their old films shown on
television. They felt TV was a
competitor, siphoning viewers
from movie theaters. And so,
many TV stations had to pad
their schedules with foreign
films, films from smaller U.S.
studios or films produced by the
U.S. government.
Eventually, an arrangement
was struck between the

through life like electricity 4
following the path of least
resistance. He moved back in
with his parents. He started
working. He had a child. And it
took years before he realized
what he gave up when he left
Howard. On the day we talked,
he ticked off a long list of names
of notable alumni, including Vice
President Harris and Newark
Mayor Ras J. Baraka, all too
aware that he can9t claim one
title they hold.
<I don9t get to wear the
Howard alumni hat,= he said. <I
can wear the Howard shirt, but I
can9t wear the Howard alumni
hat. & That9s such a bitter pill
because I love that place. It gave
me so much, just in the time I
was there.=
We all carry our biggest
regrets in different ways. Some
of us try to push them to the far
recesses of our minds in hopes of
forgetting the circumstances
that led to them. Some of us keep
them close, allowing them to
take up space in our thoughts as

Hollywood studios and the TV
networks enabling broadcasters
to buy and transmit films made
before 1948. The cinematic
floodgates were opened.
CBS took the lead. In 1951, its
flagship station, WCBS in New
York City, debuted a nightly film
offering, showing an old movie
every night at 11:10 p.m.
Richard K. Doan was the
program manager at the time
and he claimed to have named
the program 4 <The Late Show=
4 and to have picked its theme
music: <The Syncopated Clock=
by Anderson.
Anderson was a pops
powerhouse. Not pop, as in pop
music, but pops, as in the light
orchestral music popularized
(popsularized?) by Arthur
Fiedler of the Boston Pops. In
fact, Fiedler was among those
who encouraged Anderson to
devote his life to music.
Anderson was born in 1908 to
Swedish immigrants who were
both very musical. He grew up
in Cambridge, Mass., and
studied music at Harvard. The
musical arrangements he wrote
there brought him to Fiedler9s
attention. Soon, Anderson was
arranging music for the Boston
Pops.
Anderson was drafted in
April 1942. When the Army
learned Anderson had studied
Swedish, Danish, German,
Icelandic and Norwegian at
Harvard, it assigned him to the
Counter Intelligence Corps and
sent him to Iceland, where he
served as a translator and
interpreter.
In 1943, Anderson was sent to
Officer Candidate School and
then posted to the Pentagon as
we go about our days. And then
there are those among us who
openly claim them and use them
to propel us in directions we
might not go otherwise.
Hassan has done that with his
lost opportunity. He is now 48,
and he still does not have a
bachelor9s degree from Howard
or any university. But despite
that and because of that, he has
spent the last several years
working to help raise money for
students who attend HBCUs.
Since 2020, he has helped
raise more than $100,000, and
his effort gained the attention of
GoFundMe staff members.
Hassan was named a GoFundMe
Hero, and he is now
collaborating with the company
on an initiative that aims to get
textbook grants worth $500 each
to HBCU students. That effort is
being done through the
company9s GoFindYou initiative,
which is described online as <a

chief of the Scandinavian
Department of Military

young family to Arlington.
When Fiedler learned Anderson
was back stateside, he invited
him to be the guest conductor at
the Boston Pops Harvard Night
concert.
It was while Anderson was
living in Arlington that a title
had lodged itself in his mind.
Many composers had
incorporated the steady,
rhythmic ticking of a clock into
their works. But, Anderson later
wrote, <No one had described a

Lehman said. But mixed in with
fundraising efforts centered on
painful subjects, she said, are
ones that aim to raise money to
start small businesses, pay for
Black and Brown children to see
movies such as <Black Panther=
and <fund the next generation of
HBCU scholars.=
As of Friday, the fundraising
page for the textbook grants
showed that more than $22,000
had been raised toward a
$75,000 goal. Lehman said the
company has been trying to get
word out about it to students, so
they can benefit from it, and to
potential donors, so they can
contribute to it.
<We want it to live on in
perpetuity,= she said.
As the Supreme Court
considers the issue of affirmative
action, much public debate lately
has centered on admitting Black
and Brown students into colleges
and universities. But getting in is
only part of the picture. Staying
in can also prove a challenge,
especially since broader
economic inequities leave many
of those students entering with
less financial security than their
incidents in which shootings
appear to be prompted by
relatively minor disputes,
according to police.
Investigators are continuing
to look into the Oct. 13 killing,
police said. They said the
15-year-old arrested Friday was
charged with first-degree
murder while armed. His name

ters belongs in D.C. 4 and there9s a
perfect place for it.
I have been working on this issue
for decades. It is time for the feder-
al government9s General Services
Administration (GSA) to take con-
trol and finish this project.
The current FBI building is in
terrible shape and needs to be torn
down. The Post reported in 2015:
<Beneath the headquarters of
America9s premier crime-fighting
organization, one of the parking
ramps has been condemned be-
cause corroded pieces of the ceiling
were falling on cars. Netting hangs
on the Ninth Street facade to pre-
vent broken concrete from hitting
passersby 160 feet down on the
sidewalk below. During a July fire
drill, half of the building9s alarms
didn9t go off.=
A new FBI campus needs to be
built on federal land at Poplar Point

River from Nationals Park.
Why there?
The federal government owns
the land and could start work liter-
ally tomorrow. No need to involve
the D.C. government, Maryland or
Virginia.
It is bordered by the river on one
side, making security easier.
The Anacostia stop on Metro9s

from anywhere in the region.

governments.
When this complex is complete,
the GSA could tear down the
Hoover building and build a mixed-
use project that includes residen-
tial, retail and commercial space
and a hotel. The commercial space
could house, among other things,
the FBI headquarters offices, right
where they currently are, across
the street from the Justice Depart-
ment and a 10-minute drive or
Metro ride to the FBI campus at
Poplar Point.
This is what the FBI leadership
wants. This is a win-win situation
for the federal government and for
D.C. For the feds, the cost of the
project is a fraction of what it
would be at the proposed sites in
Maryland and Virginia. This could
be done quickly and would be con-
venient for the region. A new build-
ing at the Hoover site would contin-
ue the revitalization of Pennsylva-
nia Avenue and put a valuable piece
of property back on the tax rolls.
I was chair of the Washington
Metropolitan Area Transit Authori-
ty Board of Directors from 2015 to
2019. I visited the proposed Mary-
land and Virginia sites. They are
clearly not suitable for the FBI
campus, even though the Spring-
field site is closest to Quantico,
which the GSA newly said is im-
portant, and all sites have Metro
access.
I understand why politicians in
Maryland and Virginia want it, but
the FBI should not be used as a tool
for economic development. It is too
important. What I propose has
been extensively studied and was
outlined in a letter from me to the
then-president in 2017.
It is time the federal government
takes matters into its own hands
and get the FBI project done. At
Poplar Point.

The new FBI site is a matter of equity
BY A NGELA D . A LSOBROOKS
hanks to President Biden9s leader-
T ship, the selection of a location for the
new FBI headquarters is again mov-
ing forward after plans were stalled
in 2017 under President Donald Trump. How-
ever, I am deeply concerned with recent
developments in the site-selection process
that undermine the Biden administration9s
commitment to advancing equity.
The process for selecting a new FBI head-
quarters dates back to 2012, with 35 sites
under initial consideration now down to
three finalists. Prince George9s County has
two of the three sites under consideration, in
Greenbelt and Landover; the third site is in
Virginia, in Springfield. Throughout the past
decade, the General Services Administration
(GSA) has said it would focus on access to
transit, cost and environmental impact when
selecting a new site.
Both Prince George9s sites are superior
based on the criteria the GSA set in 2012.
They include great transit and highway net-
works, access to quality amenities, proximity
to an outstanding workforce and an un-
matched STEM research ecosystem where
the FBI could engage with public and private
institutional partners to meet the new cy-
berthreats of the 21st century. And the sites
are ready now.
Further, the Greenbelt site offers direct
access to Metro, making it the only site that
would not increase negative environmental
impacts by putting more cars on the road.
Landover, with a lot of available space, has
unmatched security buffer options. My ad-
ministration, Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan
(R), Maryland state leaders and our Mary-
land congressional delegation all agree that
the two sites in Prince George9s remain the
best options for the new FBI headquarters.
The GSA recently announced new selec-
tion criteria for the FBI headquarters, in
which proximity to Quantico, Va., was added.
It is heavily weighted and seemingly the
deciding criterion. It also undermines a key
priority of the Biden administration 4 ad-
vancing equity 4 that ranked only fourth out
of GSA9s five criteria and has so little weight it
barely registers. This is an abrupt change that
favors the site in Springfield and clearly puts
the Prince George9s locations at a disadvan-
tage. We strongly believe equity should be
prioritized, and we ask that it be given equal
consideration along with the other criteria.
Prince George9s County is a majority-
minority community whose population is
more than three-fifths Black and about one-
fifth Latino, and we have historically missed
out on federal investments when it comes to
government office space. Though we house
20 percent of the region9s federal workforce,
we host less than 5 percent of the region9s
federal office space.
Decisions such as this have major, and
sometimes generational, effects on commu-
nities. The federal government9s decision in
1941 to situate the Pentagon on the west bank
of the Potomac in Virginia created decades of
additional and massive investment in the
area. Likewise, the federal government9s deci-
sion to locate the National Institutes of
Health in Montgomery County has had a
similar effect. Federal centers have driven job
and income growth in our region, and deci-
sions about where to situate them have
JONATHAN NEWTON/THE WASHINGTON POST
historically advantaged majority communi-
ties over minority communities such as
Prince George9s.
The results of this lack of investment are
clear. Median household incomes are 48 per-
cent lower in Prince George9s County com-
pared with Fairfax County, where the Spring-
field site is. Out of the largest 150 counties in
the country, Fairfax ranks second in growth
of income and wealth over time; Prince
George9s ranks 142nd. Additionally, even
though we have some of the same assets in
availability of land and transit access, we
have faced obstacles in attracting the same
types of private investment that we see in
jurisdictions such as Fairfax and Montgom-
ery counties.
The GSA9s site-selection criteria represent
policy decisions, and, again, it appears that
some in the federal government are seeking
to favor investing in the same communities
that have historically received the majority of
these investments for decades. Meanwhile, it
appears communities of color, such as Prince
George9s, again might get left behind.
It9s time for a change.
The Prince George9s sites clearly remain
the best positioned to serve as the new home
of the FBI headquarters. Our sites would
provide the dedicated men and women of the
FBI with modern, safe, world-class accom-
modations as they work daily to protect this
nation from its threats. But just as important,
situating the headquarters in Prince George9s
would create long-overdue generational
transformation and investment.

But, unfortunately, this is how
cash bail 4 an amount of money a
court charges a defendant to return

4 makes communities less safe
and more inequitable. The imposi-
tion of cash bail prevents actors in
the legal system from making a
simple binary determination as to
whether an individual represents a
danger to the community and
should be detained or does not, in
which case unnecessary pretrial
detention will serve only to in-
crease the likelihood the individual
commits future crimes. Thankfully,
as illustrated by Fairfax Common-
wealth9s Attorney Steve Descano9s
recently released bond and pretrial
detention dashboard, his team9s
work to reform our community9s
legal system is rendering these un-
just outcomes less frequent.
At the outset of his term, Desca-
no directed his prosecutors to stop
requesting cash bail and consider a
range of factors to determine
tention should be recommended.
The community should be encour-
aged by the progress made possible
by Descano9s decision to insist that
his prosecutors simply recommend
individuals charged with crimes be
detained or released pretrial based
on an assessment of their danger-
ousness, without regard to their
wealth. His recent release of data
illustrates this point.
Specifically, the dashboard re-
flects that in 76 percent of violent
felony cases and 89 percent of
felony sex-offense cases, the coun-
ty9s prosecutors recommended
pretrial detention. Meanwhile, in
77 percent of nonviolent misde-
meanor cases, the team recom-
mended release. The judge ulti-
mately decides whether an individ-
ual is held.
Take it from a former law en-
forcement leader: This is the kind
of judgment that keeps our com-
munity safe. Those who represent a
real danger to the community
should remain behind bars, and
those who do not should go home
before their next court date. An
overreliance on pretrial detention
renders us less safe and our legal
system less just.
In fact, research has demon-
strated that those held pretrial are
significantly more likely to commit
future crimes and put the commu-
nity at further risk of danger. A
Kentucky study found that individ-
uals who weren9t released pretrial
were 1.3 times more likely to be
arrested on new charges in the
future 4 and as few as two days of
pretrial detention affected individ-
uals9 odds of committing future
offenses. Researchers in Harris
County, Tex., found that pretrial
detention of 10,000 individuals
charged with misdemeanors could
be projected to result in 400 addi-
tional felonies and 600 further
misdemeanors after detention.
nessed firsthand the collateral con-
sequences of pretrial detention.
When someone is behind bars
awaiting a court date, these conse-
quences mount quickly. That indi-
O Glenn Youngkin (R) re-
vidual9s job, housing and even cus-
tody of children all come under
threat. In effect, the entire life of
someone charged with a crime can
come unwound on the heels of just
a few days of incarceration. Such a
scenario might as well be designed
to fuel the cycle of crime.
Descano and his team should be
applauded for working to build a
safer and more just Fairfax County
through their pretrial detention
reforms. But perhaps as significant
as this reform itself is the data they
are sharing regarding the progress.
This new dashboard grants our
community unprecedented and
unparalleled access to the pretrial
decision-making of Descano9s team
4 and it will allow the public to
continue to monitor the pretrial
judgment of the Office of the Com-
monwealth9s Attorney.
For instance, when rolling out
this dashboard, Descano empha-
sized that he thinks a larger majori-
ty of those accused of nonviolent
crimes can likely be sent home
pretrial and indicated that this
is a figure he hopes to see trend
downward.
Thankfully, because of this new-
ly released data, the public can now
do something we previously ha-
ven9t been able to do: hold our
prosecutor9s office to account on
that score.

only using information about
names and sex listed in their
official record unless a parent or
guardian has submitted a name-

information related to gender.
The policy requires the use of
bathrooms, locker rooms and
other <intimate spaces= based
on sex assigned at birth and
states that athletic participation
must be determined by sex.
The model policies have
many inherent issues, begin-
ning with a privileged assump-
tion that all students have sup-
portive home environments
free of family abuse, neglect and
generationally inflicted trauma.
Policies protecting parents9
rights should take extreme care
not to trample on the rights of
innocent children.
Moreover, the timing of these
policies follows extremely vocal
criticism from the governor and
his team about the state9s recent
Standards of Learning assess-
ment, results they attribute to
the reduction of in-person
learning during the coronavirus
pandemic. So, the question
should be raised: What does a
revamp in policy that focuses on
preferred pronouns and bath-
room preferences have to do
with academic achievement
and addressing unfinished
learning?
One thing the governor and I
can agree on is that we have a lot
of work to do. But the only way
to prepare students for college,
career and life is to follow the
data and set our tasks and prior-
their parents, hammering kids
on bathroom preferences and
calling a child <she= when they
prefer to be called <he.= What
the data does tell us is that we
need to improve student litera-
cy. Virginia9s School Quality
Profile in the 2021 to 2022
school year showed that only
73 percent of students demon-
strated proficiency in reading,
65 percent in writing, 66 per-
cent in math, 65 percent in
science and 66 percent in
history. Unsurprisingly, Black
and Hispanic students contin-
ued to lag behind their White
and Asian counterparts on
these assessments. If these
achievements were to be <grad-

D average.
As educators, we must use
data to make informed instruc-
tional decisions for our students
so that we can crawl out of this
pervasive hole of mediocrity. We
should be given the space and
time to respond to the individu-
al needs of our students and
families, working together to do
the grueling work of placing an
equity lens on everything we do
and dismantling the broken sys-
tems that perpetuate opportu-
nity gaps within our schools and
school systems. We need to fo-
cus on reimagining education
so we can create environments
conducive to student learning,
removing barriers to access, em-
bracing creativity and making
critical thinking the norm.
Formal adoption of these
model policies has been delayed
until Nov. 26 at the earliest.
Though I appreciate the gov-
ernor9s fervor for parents9 in-
volvement in their child9s edu-
cation (I, too, support this), the
Youngkin administration9s <lis-
ten to parents= narrative has
their public school systems in-
stead of encouraging the much-
needed support of our educa-
tors. Of course we must listen to
our parents. But we must also
trust the expertise of our public
educators and value their
knowledge and experience.
Teaching is an art and a skill,
and not everyone can do it. I
would not tell my doctor how to
perform surgery; it is time to
stop telling trained educators
how to navigate the very com-
plex task of educating our chil-
dren.
This model policy is a distrac-
tion. The issue of schools and
what happens in them has be-
come too focused on politics
and not focused enough on kids.
The data is clear and tells us that
we have an academic and equity
problem. The pandemic showed
us that our kids are hurting and
we just need to let them be who
they are right now.
The work of pandemic recov-
ery in our nation9s schools is an
immensely heavy lift. The deter-
mination and focus required to
return to pre-pandemic per-
formance are beyond challeng-
ing, and we cannot pretend that
things were great before the
pandemic. Our educators need
to preserve their energy to get
us well beyond where we were
in 2019.
So, let the teachers teach, let
the principals lead and give the
superintendents respect and
grace. Elected officials must
stop distracting them. That is
the only policy that will help
right now.

Silverman9s request to vacate ruling on Ward 3 poll is denied
BY M ICHAEL B RICE- S ADDLER
The D.C. Board of Elections
ruled Friday that city council
member Elissa Silverman9s due-
process rights were not violated
when the Office of Campaign
Finance determined that she
misspent public campaign funds
on polling for the Ward 3 Demo-
cratic primary, despite her objec-
tions about the breadth and time-
line of the probe.
The board9s decision marks the
latest development in a saga that
has captured some public atten-
tion ahead of Tuesday9s election.
Silverman (I-At Large) is fighting
to retain her D.C. Council seat
against several other candidates,
some of whom have made the
investigation a talking point in
the highly competitive contest.
Last week, the OCF ordered
Silverman to return $6,200 for
the cost of two polls she commis-
sioned for the Ward 3 council
race ahead of the June primary.
In the Oct. 28 order, OCF general
counsel William SanFord said
that Silverman 4 a participant in

tions Act by commissioning poll-
ing in a race in which she was not

appeal last week that the OCF
violated her due-process rights
while issuing the order. The

spent funds, Downs said, was not

said.
Between four and six schools
that had contracted with Rome
Charters rescheduled trips last
week, Ferebee added. Officials
are working with the Office of
the State Superintendent of
Education, which has drivers
who are government employees
and can fill in gaps as the school
system looks for a new transpor-
tation vendor.
The chancellor met last week
with parents at Murch, where he
fielded questions. <I9m extreme-
ly sorry that that happened to
their children, and it9s my hope
that there9s no lingering impact
to them physically, mentally,
emotionally,= Ferebee said in an
interview. <We wanted them to
understand our path forward to
ensure that these types of inci-
dents don9t occur in the future.=
But some parents at the
explicitly included in the August
complaint brought against her by
at-large candidate Karim Mar-
shall, which focused mostly on
whether Silverman had used the
poll to coordinate with other
campaigns. Further, Downs al-
leged that SanFord had back-
tracked on an agreement that he
and Silverman would have 90
days, through Nov. 21, to respond
fully to the complaint.
Citing those arguments,
Downs asked the three-member
Board of Elections to vacate the
order and send the case back to
the OCF. Although Silverman
and Downs are also appealing
SanFord9s ruling that she mis-
spent campaign funds, Friday9s
hearing focused specifically on
the due-process aspect of the
appeal.
<There was no finding of unau-
thorized coordination, and the
case should have been closed
right there,= Downs said during
the virtual hearing. <But without
notifying council member Silver-
man, OCF went out searching for
other violations.=
SanFord contended that an
initial email sent to Silverman
about the probe <indicated that
we have the authority to investi-
gate any violations of the Cam-
paign Finance Act.= He also
pushed back against Downs9s as-
sertion that there was any prom-
ise about a timeline.
<There was never an agree-
ment between myself, Mr. Downs
or the Elissa for D.C. campaign
that they would have 90 days to
respond to allegations in a four-
and-a-half-page complaint,= he
said, adding later: <You got three

On the assertion that the probe

thus should understand the re-
strictions. <We have an ethical

Silverman told DCist ahead of
the primary that she did not
share the specific results of the
polls with Duncan and Berg-
mann but did talk to them about
the risk of vote splitting and
potentially helping another
front-runner in that race, Eric
Goulet, whom they opposed.
In written responses to the
OCF, Silverman said she had
polled the race to be <well-
informed of Ward 3 priorities= for
the purposes of her own election

and Duncan had asked for her
endorsement. Further, she said it

Shooting
suspect
was held in
March case
BY E MILY D AVIES
The 17-year-old charged in the
shooting of Washington Com-
manders running back Brian Rob-
inson Jr. was previously charged
in a separate fatal shooting in
March at a Prince George9s County
mall, though he was later released
for lack of evidence, according to
the Prince George9s County State9s
Attorney9s Office.
The teenager was released from
custody after the court deter-
mined at a preliminary hearing
that there was not enough evi-
dence to move forward with the
charges in the shooting at the Mall
at Prince George9s, the state9s at-
torney9s office said. The state9s at-
torney9s office previously said the
teen was charged with murder in
Prince George9s but later correct-
ed it to say he faced a different
charge, though they could not pro-
vide further details because he
was charged as a juvenile.
Five months after that incident,
police allege he was involved in
the attempted robbery of Robin-
son along the H Street commercial
strip in Northeast Washington.
The Prince George9s charges
were first reported by ABC7.
Police on Friday night an-
nounced the arrest of a second
teenager allegedly involved in
Robinson9s shooting. The second
teen, who was 14 at the time of the
incident and has since turned 15,
is facing armed robbery charges.
Police said Friday they were still
searching for a third suspect who
drove the two teens from the at-
tack.
Robinson underwent surgery
at MedStar Washington Hospital
Center and began a weeks-long
rehabilitation program before ul-
timately returning to the field.
The teen was charged as a juvenile
in the case with assault with intent
to rob while armed.

Chief Robert J. Contee III said

The 17-year-old9s twin brother,
Jabree Hawkins, was indicted as
an adult in the fatal shooting at the
Mall at Prince George9s, according
to the Prince George9s County
State9s Attorney9s office. Hawkins
is accused of killing DaQuan
Dockery, 22, in a clothing store.
Police have said that attack was

stemmed from a dispute.

MIDTERM ELECTIONS

Liz Cheney endorses Democrat Abigail Spanberger in high-stakes Va. race

BY M EAGAN F LYNN
Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), the
GOP9s most vocal critic against
Trumpian politics9 threats to
democracy, has endorsed Rep.
Abigail Spanberger (D-Va.) over
Spanberger9s Republican chal-
lenger in one of Virginia9s most
consequential races this year,
transcending party lines to push
for the vulnerable Democrat
days before the election.
In a statement to The Wash-
ington Post, Cheney acknowl-
edged that she and Spanberger
have policy differences, but said
she was <honored= to back Span-
berger, describing her as a law-
maker <dedicated to working
across the aisle to find solutions=
while criticizing her Donald
Trump-backed Republican op-
ponent, Yesli Vega, a member of
the Prince William County Board
of Supervisors.
<We don9t agree on every pol-
icy, but I am absolutely certain
that Abigail is dedicated to serv-
ing this country and her con-
stituents and defending our Con-
stitution,= Cheney said. <Abigail9s
opponent is promoting con-
spiracy theories, denying elec-
tion outcomes she disagrees
with, and defending the indefen-
sible. We need our elected lead-
ers to be honest, serious, and
responsible, which is why I
would urge voters in Virginia9s
7th District to support Abigail
Spanberger.=
A spokesman did not make
Cheney available for an inter-
view. A spokesman for Vega
pointed to a previous statement
from Vega that she did not be-
lieve the 2020 election was sto-
len from Trump.
Spanberger is the third
congressional Democrat that
Cheney has backed this year, a
remarkable evolution for the for-
mer House Republican Confer-
ence leader who espoused
staunchly conservative politics
for the duration of her career.
But since Trump9s pressure cam-
paign to overturn the 2020 elec-
tion and the resulting Jan. 6,
2021, riot, Cheney has been will-
ing to set aside ideological differ-
ences to thwart Trump-backed
candidates and promote others
she views as defenders of democ-
racy, even if they9re Democrats.
Cheney, who lost her Republi-
can primary earlier this year,
was excised by GOP leaders for
her outspoken disavowal of
Trump9s false stolen-election
claims and her service on the
House committee investigating
the attack on the Capitol.
She campaigned against Ari-
zona9s election-denying guber-
natorial candidate Kari Lake and
the Republican candidate for
secretary of state, later chiding
Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin
(R) for flying there to stump for
Lake. She formally endorsed and

Congress, as she attempts to thwart Trump-backed candidates.
stumped for Democratic Rep.
Elissa Slotkin in Michigan over
Republican opponent Tom Bar-
rett, and while in Ohio last week
said she would support Demo-
cratic Senate candidate Tim
Ryan over Trump-backed J.D.
Vance.
Spanberger9s opponent, Vega,
was recently endorsed by Trump
4 an endorsement she down-
played 4 and she has previously
sympathized with Jan. 6 rioters
as unfairly persecuted, calling
them <a group of people exercis-
ing their First Amendment
right,= according to audio the
Virginia Democratic Party re-
leased early in the campaign of
an April 20 candidate forum.

In a recording of the same
forum obtained by VPM, Vega
additionally said <there9s evi-
dence that continues to come out
that indicates that the election of
2020 was interfered with.= She
said she would not call the elec-
tion <stolen.= But the comments
also led ex-Republican Virginia
congressman Denver Riggleman
to appear in a campaign ad
backing Spanberger, calling
Vega9s comments about the elec-
tion <coded language for every-
body on the stop-the-steal bus.=
In an interview with The Post
in September, when questioned
if she acknowledged President
Biden as legitimately elected,
Vega answered, <He is the presi-
dent of the United States.= She
would not give a yes or no
answer when pressed, bristling
that the line of questioning was
irrelevant to voters in her dis-
trict who were concerned about
the economy. She reiterated
Biden is president and added
that <the American people elect-
ed him.= Asked what she thought
of Trump9s false claims of voter
fraud, Vega said, <I am not Don-
ald Trump, I don9t know what
goes on in his mind, and I can9t
speak to what he stated.=
Vega has otherwise avoided
discussing Trump, whose unpop-
ularity in Virginia suburbs large-
ly powered the blue wave that in
2018 carried Spanberger into of-
fice, along with two other Demo-
cratic colleagues, Elaine Luria
and Jennifer Wexton, who are
now in tight races.
Cheney has developed a rap-
port with several of the Demo-
crats with national security
backgrounds elected that year,
including Luria, who serves with
Cheney on the Jan. 6 committee.
Spanberger, in fact, has said that
she and Cheney were huddled in
the same safe room together as
violence enveloped the Capitol
on Jan. 6.
Speaking at a forum at Har-
vard Kennedy School last month,
Cheney described Spanberger,
Luria, Slotkin and Rep. Chrissy
Houlahan (D-Penn.) as <women
whom I may have big disagree-
ments with on some issues, but
man, they are there for the right
reason.=
<They work hard, and I know
that they want what9s best for the
country,= Cheney said, according
to the Harvard Gazette. <And I
know that we can have a discus-
sion and a disagreement and
figure out where we agree. Those
are the kinds of people that you
can trust with the future of this
country.=
In a statement, Spanberger
said she valued that Cheney <has
consistently put the safety and
security of our country and de-
fense of our democracy above
party allegiance, and I thank her
for demonstrating principled
leadership in doing so.=
<I am grateful for her support
of my reelection campaign, and
while she and I may often dis-
agree on policy, we share a com-
mitment to public service, gov-
erning with integrity, and pro-
tecting the strength of our de-
mocracy,= Spanberger said. <She
understands that my work for
Virginia is grounded in the prin-
ciple of putting our country first
4 over party 4 always.=
The race in Virginia9s 7th Dis-
trict is considered a toss-up, and
along with competitive races in
Virginia9s 2nd and 10th districts,
political analysts see it as a key
bellwether to gauge how well
Republicans perform in their bid
to take control of Congress.

All eyes on Spanberger and Luria as races draw to a close THE REGION

A stunning
CONGRESS FROM C1

Wexton9s race against retired

Navy captain Hung Cao in the
10th Congressional District is
considered less competitive than
the other two, with political
analysts projecting that a Repub-
lican <megawave= is needed to
flip the seat, making the outcome
and margin in the race a key
indicator of how well Republi-
cans do Tuesday.
After a campaign dominated
by a push-and-pull over inflation
and abortion rights, the Demo-
cratic incumbents have turned to
closing arguments beyond those
issues, while Republicans press
harder on the pedal on economic
concerns and a tough-on-crime
message.
Luria, the lone vulnerable
Democrat serving on the House
committee investigating the Jan.
6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capi-
tol, chose to spotlight that serv-
ice in her closing one-minute ad.
Spanberger, with a heavy focus
on small businesses, is trumpet-
ing an endorsement from the
U.S. Chamber of Commerce,
which has traditionally backed
Republicans. And all three Vir-
ginia Democratic incumbents in
more contested races 4 Luria,
Spanberger and Wexton 4 have
joined a nationwide pivot among
Democrats to a closing message
accusing Republicans of wanting
to gut Social Security and Medi-
care, as the three incumbents did
in an rare joint news conference
Tuesday.
President Biden issued the
same warning Tuesday in a
speech in Florida, taking aim at
Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.), who
released a controversial plan
suggesting all federal programs,
including Social Security and
Medicare, expire after five years
unless renewed. Scott has denied
his proposal equates to gutting
the programs, a rebuttal corrob-
orated by The Washington Post9s
Fact Checker. Other Republican
proposals suggest raising the age
of eligibility for Social Security.
But Democrats have also
pointed to comments from
House Minority Leader Kevin
McCarthy (R-Calif.), who told
Punchbowl News that the GOP, if
it wins the majority, intended to
use the debt-limit debate to force
government spending cuts.
Those discussions could include
Social Security or Medicare,
though McCarthy said he would
not <predetermine= anything
when asked if the programs may
see cuts.
<Seniors have echoed to me
time and again how concerned
they are about this issue, and we
just wanted to spend some time
this morning talking about the
fact that we stand firmly behind
protecting Social Security and
Medicare,= Luria said at the news
conference, before accusing her
opponent, state Sen. Jen A. Kig-
gans (R-Virginia Beach), a geriat-
ric nurse practitioner, of wanting
to join McCarthy in gutting the
entitlement programs.
<Elaine9s desperate accusation
is categorically false and yet
another blatant lie she is ped-
dling to salvage her failing cam-
paign in the final days of the
race,= a campaign spokesman for
Kiggans said in a statement,
Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D-Va.) speaks during a campaign event
outside an early voting site on Oct. 25 in Dumfries.
adding that she <will not touch
Social Security and Medicare
benefits for anyone receiving
them or is near to receiving them
4 period.=
Luria has been locked in a
dead heat against Kiggans, who
just last week got some phone-
banking help from former vice
president Mike Pence and has
been drumming up enthusiasm
with Youngkin, sometimes in
matching red vests, at regular
rallies. Kiggans has run a cam-
paign hewing strictly to a mes-
sage on inflation and the econo-
my while leveraging Biden9s low
approval rating, constantly tying
Luria to him and House Speaker
Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.). She stuck
to that message in a closing ad as
well.
<Whether it9s at home, or in
the Navy, or in the clinic, I
learned that while we don9t al-
ways agree, we can find common
ground,= Kiggans said in the ad.
<But my opponent, she only
agrees with the Biden-Pelosi
agenda, voting with them 99
percent of the time.=
Mark Bergman, a Democratic
strategist for congressional can-
didates across the country and
former adviser to Ralph
Northam during his tenure as
Virginia governor, said that with
polls showing the national envi-
ronment in Republicans9 favor,
Virginia9s vulnerable Democratic
incumbents would need to rely
on the attributes that set them
apart from <generic Democrats=
if they want a chance to survive
what is expected to be a bad
night for the party.
For Spanberger, he noted,
that9s a background in the CIA in
counterterrorism and as a for-
mer federal law enforcement of-
ficer with the U.S. Postal Inspec-
tion Service, allowing her to
more easily fend off attacks from
Vega, who also boasts a back-
ground in law enforcement, that
Spanberger wants to <defund=
police. And for Luria, a retired
Navy commander and a defense
hawk in Congress, it9s her service
on the committee investigating
the Jan. 6 insurrection.
While sentiment against for-
mer president Donald Trump
largely powered the 2018 blue
wave, especially in the Virginia
suburbs, Luria has been the rare
Democrat to continue to lever-
age that sentiment in her closing
message. She released an ad last
week condemning stolen-elec-
tion lies and highlighting her
service on the committee investi-
gating the insurrection, which
ALEX WONG/GETTY IMAGES
she has called the most impor-
tant work of her professional life.
<If standing up for what9s right
means losing an election, so be
it,= Luria says against fleeting
clips of the riot, Trump, and
Kiggans9s shying away from an-
swering whether Biden was le-
gitimately elected, a question
she would not answer through-
out the campaign.
Dave Wasserman, an analyst
at the nonpartisan Cook Political
Report, said Luria <stands alone
as a Democrat who has staked
her reelection on democracy is-
sues.=
<And yet she remains the un-
derdog because of redistricting,=
he said, noting changes to the
2nd District that made it redder,
giving Republicans a built-in
edge.
Some voters in Virginia Beach
said they found Luria9s appeals
regarding democracy persua-
sive. Mark Johnson, a Virginia
Beach resident who serves in the
Navy, said he used to identify as a
moderate Republican but, after
the Trump era, is squarely with
the Democrats, feeling particu-
larly unnerved by false claims
about the 2020 election.
<It9s hard to be in the middle
now, right? You really kind of
have to decide,= Johnson, 49, said
while also stressing that he was
not speaking for the military,
only himself. <The most recent
ad that really resonated with me
was when they were showing a
clip from Representative Luria
saying that Senator Kiggans is
unfit to serve because she9s an
election denier, and, you know,
that9s hard to argue with.=
Other centrist voters felt
turned off by a continued focus
on Jan. 6, wanting their chosen
candidate to put that dark chap-
ter 4 and Trump and the 2020
election 4 in the rearview mir-
ror. <We need to be done with
that,= said Eric Elliott, a 58-year-
old airline pilot in Suffolk who
identifies as an independent. He
said he was fed up with inflation
and gas prices and liked what he
has heard from Kiggans about
focusing on economic issues.
<I want to change something.
And so the only way to do that is
to change which party is in
power,= he said.
In Virginia9s 7th District,
Spanberger has been closing out
the race with bipartisan appeals,
emphasizing cutting taxes for
small businesses, strengthening
U.S. manufacturing to compete
with China, and also putting her
national security credentials

front and center 4 something
she planned to do in an appear-
ance with Sen. Mark R. Warner
(D-Va.), chairman of the Senate
Intelligence Committee, on Fri-
day as well.
<I work with anyone to get
things done, just like I did when I
was in the CIA and in law
enforcement,= she said in one of
her final ads.
The race began overwhelm-
ingly as a referendum on abor-
tion rights, after audio of Vega
casting doubt on whether rape
could lead to pregnancy was
leaked just days after she won
her Republican primary in June.
Spanberger repeatedly criticized
Vega over the comments (which
Vega weeks later argued were
misconstrued) while accusing
her of wanting to ban abortion
nationwide without exception.
Vega later said she does support
exceptions for rape, incest and
the life of the mother.
Indeed, numerous Democratic
voters casting early votes in the
7th District said in interviews
that they were galvanized to
protect abortion rights. <That
was a big issue in my life when
we lost Roe v. Wade,= said one
Spanberger voter, 67-year-old
Joyce Wilcox, a retired health lab
worker who grew up in Falls
Church. <I don9t want to see kids
having to do what I saw with my
friends in high school.=
But with so many other eco-
nomic issues competing for at-
tention, Wasserman said the
abortion issue alone won9t get
Democrats across the finish line,
at least not in Virginia.
<Some Democrats predicted
Spanberger would pull away
from Vega after the primary by
pounding her on the abortion
issue on the D.C. airwaves. That
doesn9t appear to have hap-
pened,= said Wasserman; the
Cook Political Report moved the
race to a <toss-up= status late last
month.
Vega, he said, didn9t help her-
self in the swing district by
forging an identity as the <anti-
establishment= candidate in the
primary aligned with some of
Congress9s most conservative ar-
chetypes, including in the House
Freedom Caucus. She has since
been endorsed by Trump, an
endorsement she largely down-
played by equating it to that of
any voter in the district, and Sen.
Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) has spent over
$100,000 through his PAC sup-
porting her and stumping for
her.
But she9s also <attempting to
ALEX WONG/GETTY IMAGES
make inroads in traditionally
Democratic communities by
drawing on her Salvadoran an-
cestry, and that is her pathway to
victory here,= Wasserman said.
<It9s less about ideology and
more about biography, and we9ll
see if it works.=
Vega9s closing appeal in a new
ad is in Spanish, in fact, opening
with old photos of her parents,
who came to the United States
fleeing civil war in El Salvador.
<Our stories unite us,= the daugh-
ter of immigrants says against an
image of the Statue of Liberty,
before images of Spanberger and
Pelosi appear. <The politicians in
Washington continue to ignore
us, threatening our way of life,=
Vega says.
Collectively, the candidates
and party PACs have spent more
than $26 million on the 7th
District race, making it one of
the most expensive in the nation
(particularly given that it is in
the Washington media market).
And House leadership in both
parties spent roughly $4 million
each, even as both Spanberger
and Vega spoke against party
leadership.
Vega said she would not sup-
port McCarthy for speaker dur-
ing the primary 4 though said
his work to win control of the
House <earned= her support be-
fore appearing with him at a
fundraiser for her campaign af-
ter her nomination.
Spanberger, who hasn9t voted
for Pelosi for speaker in the past,
called for new House leadership
over Pelosi9s handling of stock-
trading ban legislation that
Spanberger had prioritized, dis-
tancing herself from the speaker
as Republicans pummeled her
on the airwaves for voting with
Pelosi <100 percent of the time.=
Vega9s supporters knew the
refrain well. <Spanberger voted
all the way with Biden and
Nancy Pelosi, right with them,=
one Vega voter, Diane White, a
hairdresser in Fredericksburg,
said after casting an early vote
last month, noting that she was
hoping Vega would support
Trump and his policies, be tough
on crime and get a handle on the
economy.
So far, over 735,000 people
have voted early in Virginia as of
Wednesday, and early voting
ended Saturday. Polls will open
at 6 a.m. Tuesday, Election Day.

farewell
to daylight
saving time
BY M ARTIN W EIL
In part, Saturday seemed re-
markable in itself. An unusually
warm November day with
enough golden sunshine to dis-
play our fall foliage in stunning
proximity to its golden peak of
glow and glitter.
But it is a fair guess that for
weeks to come in Washington
only a departure from long-
standing thermal tradition will
provide us with many more days
so splendid as Saturday.
In addition Saturday seemed
well suited to its role as the last
full day of daylight saving time.
Many of us keep our own sorts
of calendars to mark the days
and the seasons; many of us look
with regret, and even a sense of
chill foreboding, on the arrival of
the early sunsets caused by the
resumption of standard time.
So if a day existed for us to bid
farewell, even if only symbolical-
ly, to brightness, to sunshine and
to late sunsets, Saturday seemed
well suited to its role.
In Washington, our high tem-
perature of 79 degrees fell two
degrees shy of the record for Nov.
5. That Nov. 5 record of 81 has
been reached three times, most
recently in 2003.
For all the days to come in
November, records list only five
dates with temperatures higher
than Saturday9s. And four of
them only by a degree or two.
It also turns out that no date
here in December or in January
has had a higher temperature.
In addition, the mercury has
never struggled to a higher read-
ing here in February until Feb.
21, with its high of 82.
With its high of 79 degrees,
Saturday did not seem like a
species of meteorological devi-
ant, to be savored only in spots
habitually visited by sunshine.
Often warm days in the cool
weather season show a great
disparity in comfort between
areas of sunshine and of shadow.
It may seem subjective, but on
Saturday it did not seem neces-
sary even for the most thinly clad
to seek sunny spots to feel free of
temperature concerns.
It seemed warm everywhere.
It was so in the direct rays of the
sun, which drifted in and out of
clouds. But it was warm also in
shade and shadow.
Leaves seemed clearly close to
their peak. Some had seemed
recalcitrant, as if they would
never change. But by Saturday
they too had gone for the gold.
At moments the trees seemed
merely decoration. But when the
sun slipped free of cloud, and
shone on them and they burst
into golden incandescence, we
could almost hear a symphony,
approaching crescendo, pro-
claiming the glory of the season.
Saturday seemed to create and
to blend a warmth of memory
and a memory of warmth, and it
seemed a special combination.

Loudoun race is a microcosm of LGBTQ identity politics
LOUDOUN FROM C1
anti-trans views,= said Gabriele
Magni, a political scientist at Loy-
ola Marymount University. <We
are seeing an increasingly polar-
ized environment on these is-
sues.=
In eight conservative state leg-
islatures, lawmakers have recent-
ly voted to let parents pull their
children out of school lessons on
gender identity or sexual orienta-
tion. On Long Island, voters will
choose between two openly gay
candidates to represent them in
Congress 4 a first in U.S. history.
The Ohio man whose lawsuit
legalized same-sex marriage is
running a serious statehouse bid
as a Democrat, while his counter-
parts in Washington have all but
failed to muster the Republican
votes needed to cement that right
into law.
In the age of Pete Buttigieg,
banned books and Caitlyn
Jenner, these forces have collided
in a place where, not long ago, it
would have been unthinkable to
see one gay candidate, let alone
two.
The incumbent in Broad Run,
Andrew Hoyler, has drawn flak
from all sides about voting to ban
4 or not to ban 4 books with
LGBTQ characters from libraries.
Nick Gothard, who has been
endorsed by Democrats, has ac-
cused his opponents of sending
out anonymous text messages
claiming that he was going to
bring drag shows into schools, a
claim they9ve denied.
And the group Parents Against
Critical Theory (PACT) 4 which
is in part led by Tiffany Polifko,
the Republican-endorsed candi-
date 4 tweeted a photo of
Gothard with the message: <it9s

Gothard, now a nonprofit pro-
gram manager, was a high school
junior 4 and barely a few months
out of the closet 4 when he first
decided to speak during a public
comment period before the Lou-
doun County School Board, urg-
ing the adoption of nondiscrimi-
nation policies that would affirm
protections for LGBTQ students
and employees.

Republican senator had been rep-
resenting the area in some fash-
ion for nearly 20 years. A veteran
Democratic lawmaker and friend
estimated her chances of winning
at 5 percent.
Registered Democrats out-
number Republicans 2 to 1 in
Maryland, but the Broadneck
Peninsula and Crofton area had
been a reliably Republican re-
gion for decades. The last time a
Democrat represented this dis-
trict in the Maryland Senate was
1999. But Gile, who also helped
lead an organization to help fel-
low military spouses, saw her
neighborhood changing and
thought their voice in govern-
ment should reflect that.
She had been upset that at the
time, Maryland had not passed
paid family leave and other pol-
icies that benefited women, and
she thought incumbent Sen. Ed-
ward R. Reilly (R-Anne Arundel),
a Catholic and conservative in
his 70s, was out of step with the
young families she knew who
preferred Democrats9 approach
to these issues.
Gile called everyone she could
think of for advice on running a
campaign, then asked each of
those people for three more rec-
ommendations. She signed up
for an online candidacy school.
She filed for office and began
knocking on doors for hours at a
time in the summer heat, intro-
ducing herself to people in the
district last year, before Saab
filed to challenge Reilly for the
GOP nomination to effect the
term-limits that Saab believes in,
and before Reilly said he9d retire
and leave the seat open.
Democratic power brokers, in-
cluding Senate President Bill
Ferguson (D-Baltimore City),
took notice of her campaign and
started helping. <She9s someone
that resonates as common sense,

Gile <a phenomenal candidate=

doun, Del. Danica Roem (D) be-
came the first openly trans state
lawmaker in the country in 2017,
unseating a 13-term lawmaker
who had called himself Virginia9s
<chief homophobe.=
Two years later, Democrats
such as Chris Pappas and Sharice
Davids managed to win competi-
tive races for U.S. Congress in
eastern New Hampshire and the
Kansas City suburbs, respective-
ly.
Similar wins trickled down to
the nation9s school boards, too.
The Victory Institute, which re-
cruits and trains LGBTQ candi-
dates, found in an October report
that the number of openly LG-
BTQ officials on these local bod-
ies has more than doubled since
2018, climbing from 34 to 82.
More than half of all those
school board members identified
as cisgender gay men 4 including
Hoyler, who first ran for the
board and lost in 2019.
All the while, social conserva-
tives appeared to sharpen their
focus on gender and sexuality in
schools, waging legal and social
battles that 4 to some 4 chal-
lenge whether LGBTQ people
should be granted any visibility at
all in the classroom.
A push against 8sexualized
politics9

of two Loudoun County Public
Schools students, features her sit-
ting in her kitchen, as video clips
of children riding school buses
roll on tape.

it a toss-up. The last time a Democrat represented it in the state Senate was 1999.
now had an electorate that would
have given him 59 percent of the
vote.
Then, this summer, Gile said,
her door-knocking conversa-
tions started to change after the
nearly 50-year-old Roe precedent
fell. Widespread outrage
prompted protests and activism
across the country. States started
rolling back abortion access. Vot-
ers started asking her about
abortion rights, which she said
she supports, and Democrats
made District 33 their top offen-
sive target.
<For a lot of people, it9s the only
issue they9re voting on,= she said.
As the state9s party machine
poured resources and scores of
political mail pieces into the
race, the tenor shifted too. Re-
publicans accused Gile of hating
Gov. Larry Hogan, a popular Re-
publican. (She says she does not.)
Another attack ad said she finds
taxes on the middle class <won-
derful.= (She used the word to
describe an education overhaul
that costs $4 billion per year.)
Another one accused her of sup-
porting polluters. (A company
rounded education is replaced by
special-interest agendas pushing
sexualized and racially biased
politics would contribute to a
negative outcome?= she asks in
the video. <I believe our children
deserve to learn in an environ-
ment free of identity politics.=
Polifko, a behavioral analyst
who works with children with
autism, said she jumped into the
political fray of her home county
last year, just as it became center
stage in the education culture
wars.
It started, she said, with a sev-
enth-grade English class exercise
featuring a TED Talk that in-
structed her son to confront his
privilege <and recognize himself
as an oppressor.=
It lit a fire in her, she said. So
she started tuning in to school
board meetings and quickly be-
came a mainstay on a podcast
hosted by Stephen K. Bannon, the
former adviser to President Don-
ald Trump, as groups like PACT 4
for which she serves as a vice
president 4 began railing against
what they considered inappropri-
ate material in the classroom.
(Polifko says she plays no role in
running the group9s social media
account.)
Outcries like hers were hap-
pening all across the country.
Legal groups 4 some with ties to
other conservative voices in Lou-
doun 4 crafted bans on transgen-
der athletes in public school
sports teams. Attempts to ban
books from school libraries,
many of them by or about LGBTQ
people, reached historic highs.
In Virginia, where Republicans
regained control of state govern-
ment on a platform of parental
rights, Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R)
reversed the guidance of his
Democratic predecessor and put
forth a <model policy= that said
schools should be required to
inform parents if their children
use pronouns or a name different
from the one they use at home.
Polifko said she decided to run
because the incumbent, Hoyler 4
whom she praised as a <nice
young man= 4 had failed to take
enough of a hard-line stance on
many of these issues. She pointed,
for instance, to his vote to keep in
school libraries the book <Lawn
Boy,= a coming-of-age novel that
features LGBTQ themes, includ-
ing an adult character recalling a
same-sex encounter he had as a
child that critics have described
BRENDAN SMIALOWSKI/AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE/GETTY IMAGES
she once represented as an attor-
ney had an unrelated environ-
mental matter.)
Saab, meanwhile, filed a $2
million defamation suit against
Gile over attack ads the Demo-
cratic caucus sent out. His Oct. 12
suit alleges the mailers paint him
in a false light and darkened his
face to make him look sinister.
He said other campaign mailers
unfairly linked him to a Medicaid
fraud case and an unrelated sex-
ual harassment case at two busi-
nesses that he9s associated with
but does not control. One mailer
said he wanted to dismantle life-
saving systems like 911. (He voted
against a fee increase that ex-
panded an ongoing moderniza-
tion effort, which he9d previously
voted for.) Another said he
<wrote a law= removing all excep-
tions for rape and incest. (The
failed bill he co-sponsored
banned all late-term abortions.)
The lawsuit is currently sched-
uled for mediation.
In between houses in a hilly
neighborhood where the Liber-
tarian couple lived, Saab said in
an interview the abortion mail-

as pedophilia.
<We need somebody who9s go-
ing to get in there and be more
assertive about that type of ma-
terial,= she said, <because most
parents don9t think that it9s ap-
propriate to have that type of
book in our schools.=
8I don9t really think it matters9
A self-avowed nonpartisan in-
dependent, Hoyler joined the
board just as it was handling a
nonstop series of controversies:
Sexual assaults in a school bath-
room. Arguments over critical
race theory. Lawsuits over pro-
nouns.
After Broad Run member
Leslee King unexpectedly died in
August 2021, her colleagues ap-
pointed the 26-year-old airline
pilot 4 who had unsuccessfully
run against her two years earlier
4 until this year9s election.
Hoyler, the son and brother of
LCPS teachers and an occasional
substitute himself, has netted one
of the board9s most heterodox
records since. He has deferred to
the courts on Youngkin9s model
policies but voted against an LG-
BTQ history month proclama-
ers saying he9s the tipping point
vote to restrict access really grate
on him.
<Abortion law is set in Mary-
land. They9re only talking about
it as a way to distract from crime
and the economy,= Saab said,
pointing out that there are only
15 Republicans in the Maryland
Senate.
<We9re 15. They9re 32. How is
that one vote?= he said. <Now
they9ve switched it from 8abor-
tion9 to 8reproductive health,9 as if
I9m against reproductive health.=
During his two terms in the
House of Delegates, Saab was on
the House and Government Op-
erations Committee that hears
abortion legislation, which until
this spring had not made it out of
committee in 30 years. He voted
against the two bills the Demo-
crats advanced. One expanded
access to abortion by allowing
nurse midwives and other quali-
fied non-physicians to perform
abortions. (He said that was un-
safe for women.) The other,
which failed to advance in the
Senate, would have asked voters
whether to enshrine abortion
AMANDA ANDRADE-RHOADES FOR THE WASHINGTON POST
tion. He voted to ban <Gender
Queer,= another controversial
book, but to keep <Lawn Boy= in
school libraries.
For him, being gay is inciden-
tal. <I don9t make my vote by
saying, 8Well, as a gay man, I think
we need to do this,9 or introduce
myself in that way, because, quite
frankly, I don9t really think it
matters,= he said.
The Victory Fund, a sister or-
ganization of the Victory Insti-
tute, endorsed Gothard 4 a rarity
for a group that often stays out of
the fray in the rare instances
when two LGBTQ candidates run
against each other.
But Sean Meloy, vice president
of political programs at the Victo-
ry Fund, said identity wasn9t
enough in a candidate 4 action
was also needed.
<We see an increase in anti-LG-
BTQ rhetoric and targeting of our
community, and we need to have
people, while capably serving
their constituency, fight to make
sure that our rights don9t get
further diminished,= Meloy said.
8A sign of progress9
Nationally, plenty of other LG-
rights in the Maryland Constitu-
tion. (He said that was an unnec-
essary political stunt.)
Over the years, Saab co-spon-
sored several bills that would
require new mandatory data re-
porting on abortion; limit the
types of abortions that can be
done; require fetal heartbeat de-
tection and fine doctors who
don9t do it; and dictate what
doctors must say to patients.
He co-sponsored, for example,
a failed bill backed by antiabor-
tion activists called the <Pain-Ca-
pable Unborn Child Act= three
times (in 2016, 2017 and 2019),
which would have curtailed ac-
cess to the procedure after 20
weeks. Another bill, co-spon-
sored in 2019, the <Woman9s
Right to Know Act,= called for a
24-hour waiting period before an
abortion, required signed con-
sent that the patient was notified
that Medicaid pays for prenatal
care and that fathers can be re-
quired to pay child support. The
act, which never got a committee
vote, requires both an ultra-
sound of the fetus and that the
images are displayed in the preg-
nant person9s line of sight,
though the proposed law made
clear the patient and physician
cannot be penalized if the patient
is <averting her eyes.=
Cornered on abortion
At the end of the Libertarians9
driveway, after they went back
inside, Saab continued to have
the conversation he didn9t want
to have.
<I don9t think all people who
are pro-choice want people to
have abortion as birth control,=
he said in an interview. So when
does he think abortion should
not be allowed?
<I don9t think it9s a fair ques-
tion because I don9t think it9s a
black-and-white issue,= Saab
said. He said he considers it a
moral issue between a person
and God. But the government
should still have some role in
limiting it, which is why he
backed the <Pain-Capable Un-
born Child Act.=
<Do you really want a fetus to
feel pain?= he asked rhetorically,
before pointing out he has empa-
thy for people with difficult or
medically risky pregnancies.
<I9m not a woman. I9m not a
doctor.=
C7
BTQ candidates said they have
been running directly in response
to an uptick in hate. That9s not
quite the case for Gothard or
Hoyler, who both pointed to far
wonkier issues 4 school funding,
mental health, learning loss 4 as
their main priorities.
Gothard said his conversations
with voters have focused more on
teacher pay than on books and
bathrooms. But unlike Hoyler, he
has not been quiet about citing
his experiences.
Asked about Youngkin9s model
policies during a WJLA debate
among the three candidates, he
said: <I know firsthand how life-
changing it can be for students to
have their identity affirmed.=
Still, regardless of how this
turns out, some openly gay elect-
ed officials said it was notable for
there to be two gay candidates in
a Loudoun County race.
<Oh really? Wow,= Virginia
state Sen. Adam Ebbin (D-Alex-
andria) said when told about the
majority-gay race. <It9s a sign of
progress that they are running for
office and being mainstream can-
didates, regardless of their orien-
tation.=
Abortion fearmongering, he
said, is a symptom of what9s
wrong with modern politics.
There9s more to agree on about
abortion than not, he said, but
there9s a reductivism to political
messaging.
<Politics and campaigns be-
come about nothing but hope
and fear. 8I9m going to give you
hope, and my opponent is going
to take away what you want.9 I
don9t think campaigns should be
like that. We all have so much
more in common.=
The questions he wants to an-
swer? <Ask me something that
can change your life. Ask me
something where I can make
your life better.=
He recounted how another
woman, a few days earlier, asked
if he was a Republican and then
slammed the door in his face.
<You9ve discounted me as a
human being just because I have
an 8R9 near my name,= he said.
Sometimes, he said, he gets
emails that quiz him on his posi-
tions, and they feel like a bait for
a negative campaign mailer. A
recent one, he said, asked <do you
believe that contraceptives
should be given out on college
campuses?=
<I mean, why should the tax-
payers pay for that?= Saab said.
<You want contraceptives, go get
them.=
A few moments later, Kathy
Waisman-Busch, a Democrat,
crossed Saab9s path, walking her
dogs. Saab tried to hand her a
campaign mailer. She heard he
was a Republican and declined.
<Just because you9re a Demo-
crat, it doesn9t mean we don9t
have much in common,= Saab
hollered after her.
<Oh, no,= she yelled over her
shoulder as she marched up a
hill. <We don9t.=
She turned the corner and
looked him up on her phone,
fuming when she saw he9s voted
against expanding abortion ac-
cess.
She views abortion rights as
fundamental and Republicans as
trying to erode them, which she
finds offensive.
<It9s about a woman9s right to
decide what happens to her body.
There is black and white,= she
said. <We9ve come so far, and we
could go in the wrong direction
so quickly.=

PIERRE SOULAGES, 102
French painter found endless inspiration in black
BY H ARRISON S MITH
Like fellow Frenchman Yves
Klein, who made monochrome
paintings with a vivid blue hue,
and American artist Robert Ry-
man, who worked almost exclu-
sively with white, Pierre Soulages
found a universe of possibilities
in a single color. For more than
four decades he painted only in
black, laying his large canvases
flat on the floor and brushing,
raking or scraping thick pigment
that shimmered in the light of his
studios in Paris and the South of
France.
<Black has been fundamental
for me since childhood,= he told
the New York Times in 2014,
explaining how he liked to dip his
paintbrush in black ink from the
age of 6, if not earlier. He had
access to other colors, he said, but
ignored them altogether, once
confusing an older sister who
asked what he was drawing with
such thick black lines. He replied
simply, <Snow.=
Mr. Soulages grew to become
one of the most successful French
artists of the postwar period,
making paintings that sold for
seven figures at auction and cap-
tivated 4 or mystified 4 viewers
around the world. His work was
shown at museums including the
Hermitage in St. Petersburg (in
2001, he became the first contem-
porary artist to be exhibited by
the Russian institution) and the
Centre Pompidou in Paris, which
organized a 2009 retrospective
that drew more than a half-mil-
lion people.
It was the largest show the
museum had ever devoted to a
living artist, although Mr. Soulag-
es insisted that he never lingered
on such achievements. <I only
think about what I am going to do
tomorrow,= he told the Times.
<And tomorrow, I want to paint.=
Mr. Soulages, 102, was still
painting until a few weeks before
he died Oct. 26 at a hospital in the
port city of Sète, France. His death
was confirmed by Swiss gallerist
Dominique Lévy, a co-founder of
the art consortium LGDR, which
represents Mr. Soulages in the
United States. She did not cite a
cause.
<Pierre Soulages knew how to
reinvent black, by bringing out
the light,= French President Em-
manuel Macron said in a tribute
on Twitter. <Beyond the dark, his
works are vivid metaphors from
which each of us draws hope.=

PASCAL GUYOT/AFP/GETTY IMAGES
Pierre Soulages poses in front
of one of his works at the Fabre
Museum in Montpellier,
France, where he studied art.
A sculptor, draftsman and
stained-glass artist in addition to
a painter, Mr. Soulages was an
elder statesman of abstract art, a
literally towering figure who
stood more than 6 feet tall and
dressed only in black. He was
perhaps the only contemporary
artist who could claim to be a peer
of Willem de Kooning and Helen
Frankenthaler as well as a friend
of Alberto Giacometti, Max Ernst
and Mark Rothko.
Although he remained better
known in Europe than in the
United States, Mr. Soulages was a
significant part of the New York
art scene in the 1950s and 960s,
when he was represented by the
influential dealer Samuel M.
Kootz and grouped with abstract
expressionists such as Rothko
and Franz Kline, another painter
known for his love of the color
black. Mr. Soulages said that
while those artists were express-
ing their emotions through
brushstrokes, he sought to do the
opposite, trying to make paint-
ings that led viewers to explore
their own inner lives.
<It happens between the sur-
face of the painting and the per-
son who is in front of it,= he told
the Times in 2019. <The reflection
of light is what moves us.=
When he launched his career in
the late 1940s, Mr. Soulages used
walnut stain to apply thick, dark
strokes to paper. In later years he
painted large, calligraphic lines
of white, gray, red or ocher, then
applied streaks of black that he
would scrape away to reveal the
underlying colors. Then, in 1979,

he simplified his palette, using
only black and developing a style
that he dubbed <outrenoir,= or
<beyond black.=
The turning point came when
he was working on a painting that
seemed to have gone terribly
wrong, devolving into a <black
swamp,= as he put it. He kept at it
anyway, believing that it would
improve if he continued to work.
<Eventually I went to sleep, and a
few hours later I looked at what I
had done,= he told the Times. <I
was no longer working in black
but working with the light reflect-
ed by the surface of the black. The
light was dynamized by the
strokes of paint. It was another
world.=
Harry Cooper, the head of mod-
ern art at the National Gallery of
Art in Washington, said Mr. Sou-
lages <thrived with limitation,=
restricting his range of colors so
he could focus on what was left:
<Light, texture, scale, shape, di-
rection of stroke.=
He added that Mr. Soulages 4
like Ryman in the United States 4
experimented with the way his
paintings were installed, hanging
some in space so that you could
walk around them. <They9re both
pushing some limits in thinking
about what the conventions are
and why we have to obey them,=
Cooper said.
Still, he added that Mr. Soulag-
es was less concerned with issues
of form and material than with
fundamental questions of life and
existence.
Mr. Soulages said as much him-
self. <If painting doesn9t offer a
way to dream and create emo-
tions, then it9s not worth it,= he
told Interview magazine in 2014.
<Painting isn9t just pretty or
pleasant; it is something that
helps you to stand alone and face
yourself.=
Pierre Jean Louis Germain
Soulages was born in Rodez, in
the Aveyron region of southern
France, on Dec. 24, 1919. His
father made horse-drawn carriag-
es and died the year Mr. Soulages
turned 5, according to Le Monde.
Growing up, Mr. Soulages was
captivated by prehistoric art, vis-
iting a local natural history mu-
seum to examine the carvings on
ancient stone monoliths. As a
teenager he went on archaeologi-
cal digs of his own, helping to
excavate a Neolithic burial cham-
ber and unearth artifacts that
were preserved at a museum. He
also became interested in ancient

JOHN THEODORE DANYLYK
John Theodore Danylyk passed away on No-
vember 1, 2022. He was a very proud Sec-
ond Generation
American of Ukrainian and Ruthenian de-
scent. Throughout his life, John was very
passionate about music and history.
Two events in 1956 in Cleveland, Ohio gave
John great pleasure. First, he met his idol,
Gene Krupa and, shortly after, he shared a
moment with jazz drummer Joe Morello.
That was before Morello joined Dave Bru-
beck and recorded their jazz classic <Take
Five.=
John was predeceased by his parents Frank
Theodore Danylyk and Anne Sally Danylyk
(nee Wasko), and recently by two of his
elder sisters, Dorothy Brown and Kathryn
(Rick) Weiler.
John is survived by his one-and-only love
Suzanne Mary Danylyk (nee Wills). He is
also survived by and the proud father of Dr.
Gregory John Danylyk (Lynn) and daughter
Tanya Chrystina Stack (Joseph) and adored
Grandchildren, Fiona, Callaghan, and Fintan
Stack. Also surviving John is his loving sister
Geraldine Dotson, and his very beloved Aunt
Stephanie Danylyk, and many special nieces
and nephews.
John was Salutatorian of his 1958 graduat-
ing class at Brooklyn High School in Brook-
lyn, Ohio. While in high school John was also
a professional jazz drummer. He also played
football, basketball, and ran track. After
graduation, he enrolled in Ohio State Univer-
sity9s College of Engineering.
To paraphrase Yogi Berra, when you come
to a fork in the road, take it. That fork came
on December 31, nee 1959, when John en-
listed in the U.S. Army, and was assigned to
the Army Security Agency. After Basic Train-
ing at Fort Dix, New Jersey, he was sent to
the Army Language School at the Presidio
of Monterey, California, to learn Russian.
Another fork in the road took John to Fort
Belvoir, Virginia, where he later became

tually acting as its Library Director. In 1982,
she moved to Washington, DC. and became
Chief Librarian at the largest of the Smith-
sonian9s art libraries, the National Museum
of American Art and Portrait Gallery Library.
She maintained the library as a vital centre
of study, guiding researchers and managing
its holdings and acquisitions until her re-
tirement. Through retirement she provided
continual support to the Smithsonian as an
expert docent for the National Museum of
Asian Art, Freer and Sackler Galleries, and
as a regular sponsor. Her warm Capitol Hill
townhouse reûected her eclectic interests
and travels, including art from all corners
of the globe and a quantity of books, mu-
sic and periodicals that intimidated most
of her family, except perhaps her beloved
cats Isabelle and Coco. She loved opera,
classical music and Kabuki theatre. Cecilia
was loyal in all of her roles, as friend, sister,
caregiving daughter, and professional, and
always had an easy-going ability to laugh
off any episodes of drama close to her or-
bit. She is predeceased by her brother Roy,

a member of the 75th Army Band. In his
free time, John carried 12 semester hours
at night at George Washington University.
John also had his ûrst course in Economics
at night at the University of Maryland. John
returned to Ohio State University in the Au-
tumn Quarter 1961, earning a BS in Business
Administration with a major in Economics in
1964. He then enrolled in Graduate School
and by September 1965, he had completed
all requirements for a MA in Economics ex-
cept for the completion of his Master Thesis
on East-West Trade. With a newborn son,
John accepted a job offer from The Central
Intelligence Agency.
John enjoyed a 37-year career in Economic
Intelligence, starting at the Central Intelli-
gence Agency in August 1965. At CIA9s Of-
ûce of Economic Research (OER), his main
area of concentration was Soviet Foreign
Trade and Finance and East-West Trade. In
1968-69, John was OER9s Country Analyst
for Czechoslovakia. In 1978-79, he was
Country Analyst for Poland. Later in 1979,
John was detailed to the
US Department of State9s Bureau of Intel-
ligence (INR) to serve as the Chief of the
Communist Economic Relations Division
in INR9s Ofûce of Economic Analysis. John
transferred permanently to INR in 1981,
where he often led The US Delegation to
NATO9s Economic Committee. After the fall
of Communism in the USSR and Eastern Eu-
rope, and the enemy becoming the client,
John9s focus was on analyzing their rough
road toward developing market economies
and democracy. John retired in November
2002.
In retirement, John wanted to focus on US
History. He eagerly accepted an invitation
from the Library of Congress in 2002 to
enter its Docent Training Program. As a do-
cent, he led tours of the Jefferson Building
for 14 years. Having relocated to Wilming-
ton, North Carolina in January 2005, eleven
of those years were as a <Docent-At-Large=,
traveling from Wilmington to Washington,
DC on the 5th Saturday of the month.
Known for his fondness for libraries, John
was invited to join The Friends of the Library
where he served for two years as President.
Eager to learn more about Wilmington9s his-
tory, John also entered the docent program
at Bellamy Mansion where he led tours for
several years and actively promoted the
Mansion9s Programs.
John deeply loved and was very commit-
ted to his family. He shared many special
moments with them. He greatly enjoyed
attending his children9s and grandchildren9s
school and community events. He was a
life-long fan of The Ohio State University
Football team, and he enjoyed watching the

ALLEN
ANITA H. ALLEN
Leaving deep and abiding love for her hus-
band, family and friends, Anita H. Allen
passed away on October 28, 2022 from
complications of Alzheimer9s disease. Ani-
ta was an Arlingtonian and loving wife for
nearly 65 years. She will always be remem-
bered for a long list of wonderful qualities;
including her brilliance, integrity, kindness,
grit, work ethic, effortless elegance, and her
lovely voice, though her striking eyes could
do a lot of the talking. Anita hailed from a
coal mining region in West Virginia, daugh-
ter of Gladys Davis Heûin and James Ensel
Heûin. She spent her school-age years in
Ashland, VA. Relationships with teachers
and professors9 families in the small college
town were foundational. Naturally, she be-
came a teacher when she graduated from
then Longwood College in 1957. All of her
students were invited when she married
her hometown sweetheart, Jim, in 1958. It
wasn9t long before they moved to Arlington
to build a life. Anita continued to teach. This
time she compassionately taught adult edu-
cation to help students improve literacy and
their lives. She went on to work at Amer-
ican University where she also earned her
advanced degree - in education, of course.
Anita later spent most of her career, over
23 years, with The Nature Conservancy. She
retired in 2000. Along the way, Anita created
a loving and gentle home and started a fam-
ily. As an only child, her ambitions always
included children. She had three and be-
stowed family names upon each. It turned
out that her children were the conduit to the
highlights of her life - her grandchildren. To
those lucky enough to be counted among
them, she was known simply as <Nina=, a
title laced with love that will continue to live
on in their hearts and remembrances. She
enjoyed every one fully and was so proud
of them all. Everyone adored being with her

FLATIN
BRUCE AUGUST FLATIN
Bruce August Flatin of Falls Church, Virginia
passed away October 22, 2022 due to heart
failure.
Diplomat, husband, father, historian, travel-
er, cowboy, sailor, soldier, ad man, beekeep-
er and storyteller, Bruce led a remarkably
colorful and rich life. He was born on May
29, 1930 in Minneapolis, Minnesota to Os-
car and Lila Flatin (née Knuti). He dearly
loved his childhood, forged by a happy life
in Minneapolis, and long summers with his
Norwegian-American family on their farm
in Spring Grove (Southeastern Minnesota)
and his Finnish-American family on the Iron
Range (Northern Minnesota). Bruce grad-
uated from Saint Louis Park High School in
1948 and began on an exciting and reward-
ing life of international travel and adventure.
The summer before starting college, Bruce
worked as a sailor with the US Merchant
Marine. On his way home, he and his close
friend, Paul Reese, hitchhiked from Seattle,
Washington to Laramie, Wyoming, and then
rode on horseback 822 miles to return home
to Minnesota. Their ambitious trip caught
the attention of local print and radio media,
which tracked their progress home. The
Minneapolis Star Tribune called them <The
Sailors on Horseback=. Bruce then attend-
ed the University of Minnesota, graduating
in 1952 with a B.A. in History, magna cum
laude. He was also inducted as a member
of Phi Beta Kappa. Bruce was later awarded
an M.A. in International Relations by Boston
University.
In 1953, during the Korean War, Bruce volun-
teered to join the US Army. While his entire
combat unit was sent to Korea, he avoided
that fate because of his ûuency in German,
and was sent instead to occupied Germa-
ny as a translator. Thinking this decision to
study German may have saved his life, he
later required his children to study German
as well.
Shortly after returning from his military ser-
vice in 1955, Bruce met the love of his life,
Jeanne Kathryn (Kay) Johnson in a history
class at the University of Minnesota. They
married on August 19, 1955 in Kay9s home-
town of St. Paul. Bruce frequently made light
of the cultural gap between his Minneapo-
lis upbringing and Kay9s St. Paul roots. For
Bruce, family was always paramount, and
not just his nuclear family, but also the ties
that ran all the way back to the old country.
After a brief stint as an advertising editor
for Honeywell, Bruce joined the US Foreign
Service, and was promptly assigned to the
Embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan from 1957
to 1959. This Kiplingesque experience in the
<Hermit Kingdom= only fueled his appetite
for more travel. The next stop overseas was
Sydney, Australia from 1961 to 1963 at the
US Consulate General. Over the two and a
half years there, he made many life-long
friends.
After Sydney, Bruce was assigned to Berlin,
Germany (then 100 miles East of the Iron
Curtain) in the US-occupied sector as Chief
of Public Safety, working closely with the
West Berlin police and overseeing all securi-
ty matters. This time interval, 1964 to 1969,
was during some of the most anxious days
of the Cold War. Bruce was on the front lines

GIULIANI
JOSEPH CARL GIULIANI
Joseph Carl Giuliani passed away at his
home peacefully on August 4, 2022. Joe was
born in 1931 in Hagerstown, Maryland to
Faith and John Giuliani and grew up in Win-
chester Virginia. He was a 1955 graduate of
the school of architecture and planning at
the Catholic University of America where he
met his wife, Patricia. They married in 1961
and have two children.
Mr. Giuliani began his practice, Giuliani As-
sociates Architects, in 1959. Local projects
in his portfolio include facilities at Ronald
Reagan Washington National Airport, where
he designed the American, Northwest/TWA
(now Southwest), Piedmont, and US Air ter-
minals. At Dulles Airport, projects include
the Page/Avjet (Signature) terminal, Z Gates
concourse, and many tenant projects at
both airports.
Over the past 50 years his projects took him
all over the country as well as parts of the
Middle East. Rare ventures led him into the
design of sacred space. Two such projects
were the renovations of Holy Trinity Church
in Georgetown, in 1978, and Saint Patrick9s

of many sensitive and important challeng-
es for the United States, for Germany, and
for Western democracy, including managing
prisoner exchanges with East Germany at
Glienicke Bridge, aka the <Bridge of Spies=,
and overseeing security for President Rich-
ard Nixon9s visit in February 1969. He was
very pleased to be a part of history that ul-
timately led to the reuniûcation of Germany
in a peaceful fashion.
Upon completing his rotation in Berlin,
Bruce was assigned to work at the State
Department in DC as Director of the Oper-
ations Center, a communications hub for
overseas operations. He then served as a
desk ofûcer for Austria, Switzerland and
Liechtenstein. Following this, Bruce spent a
year at the National Defense University.
Like bookends, Bruce9s ûnal overseas post
was again Kabul, Afghanistan, from 1977
to 1979, where he returned to ûnd the
country much changed by Soviet inûuence.
Afghanistan became particularly perilous
when a bloody, Soviet-backed Communist
revolution broke out in the spring of 1978.
Separated from his family during the 3 day
coup that toppled President Da9ud and his
government, Bruce kept in touch with them
via short wave radio from the embassy. The
violence escalated again on Valentine9s Day,
1979, when Bruce9s boss, US Ambassador
Adolph (Spike) Dubbs, was kidnapped at
gunpoint and held hostage at the Kabul
Hotel. Bruce was the negotiator for the US
that day, working with the police and mil-
itary who surrounded the hotel along with
their Soviet security overseers. He spoke to
the Ambassador in German, a language his
captors didn9t know, through a keyhole of
the hotel room in order to assess the Am-
bassador9s situation. Sadly, the Ambassador
died in a hail of bullets as the police stormed
the room. That summer, all non-essential US
personnel were evacuated, and Bruce re-
mained with a skeleton crew manning the
Embassy. He helped shut down the Embassy
in November 1979 and returned stateside.
Back in the US, Bruce led the State Depart-
ment9s Narcotics Bureau, and was later
made Director of Refugee Resettlement,
responsible for refugee operations around
the globe. Bruce closed out his career as a
member of the Board of Examiners, inter-
viewing new candidates for the Foreign Ser-
vice. He relished this assignment, impressed
by the quality of people, from all walks of life
and ethnic backgrounds, who were seeking
to serve this country as diplomats.
Bruce loved to share his appreciation of lit-
erature and history with his children, read-
ing from classics like Frank L. Baum9s Wizard
of Oz stories, histories of Scandinavia, En-
gland, and Asia. Bruce is also remembered
by his children for his choice to include
them in his world adventures. At each for-
eign post he brought his family with him,
and ensured that they all experienced the
culture of each country to the fullest.
Bruce9s grandchildren will remember his
legendary stories, his wide-ranging inter-
ests, his joie de vivre, and his pride in them
as he encouraged them to pursue their pas-
sions.
Bruce is survived by his loving and support-
ive wife, Kay; their four children, Heidi, Dan-
iel (Amy), Mark (Barbara), and Paul (Terri);

at the age of 61. Martha was born in Grand
Rapids, Michigan in 1961 to Brooks and Su-
sanne Applegate. She earned a Bachelor
of Science in Environmental Studies from
Western Michigan University in 1983 and
Master of Science in Environmental Law
and Public Policy from Vermont Law School
in 1985. However, she subsequently dis-
covered, after marrying and becoming the
mother of three sons, that her true calling
was teaching.
One of Martha9s favorite sayings was <Love
is my superpower= and she quietly demon-
strated that superpower through her posi-
tive and caring impact on the lives of others
as a special education teacher in Loudoun
County for 25 years and as a founder of Leg-

MARSHA E. SWISS (Age 82)
Marsha E. Swiss, died October 5, 2022,
peacefully and without regret, following the
Jewish Kol Nidre service. She died at her
second home in Corrales, NM, as she had
wished, at the side of her husband of 49
years, Ronald M. Costell, M.D. Until weeks
before her death from colorectal cancer,
Marsha continued actively to practice ûdu-
ciary law in DC. She gave good counsel and
support to colleagues and clients. Her grace,

RICHARD THOMAS TEDROW (Age 80)
Richard passed away on October 30, 2022,
with loved ones close at hand. Born to
Richard L. Tedrow and Gertrude R. Tedrow
in Washington, DC, he had fond memories
of his childhood on Ridge Street in Bethes-
da and Oxford Street in Chevy Chase, and
of summers spent at Scientists9 Cliffs in
Calvert County, where he could roam the
cliffs, beach and bay at will, searching for
treasures and having adventures with a
band of friends.
A wrestler and reluctant actor at Bethesda
Chevy Chase High School, Richard went on
to attend the University of Virginia9s McIn-
tire School of Commerce after ûrst serious-
ly considering a major in philosophy. Upon
graduation, he pursued a career in investing,
managing to land a position as one of the
youngest ever hired by an eminent Balti-
more brokerage ûrm. Eventually, however,
Richard was meant for public service, some-
thing in which he held a deep and abiding
belief.
After stints in the Price Commission, the
Cost of Living Council, and the Federal En-
ergy Regulatory Commission (in the latter
of which he received a White House Distin-
guished Service Award), Richard was in at
the inception of the Department of Energy
when it was established in 1977. He served
at DOE9s Ofûce of Hearings and Appeals
until his retirement in 2007, becoming its
Assistant Director and receiving multiple
honors including a Presidential Rank Award
and a Distinguished Career Service Award.
He volunteered for a stream of committees
and assignments, mentored younger col-
leagues, and braved the challenge of repre-
senting his ofûce at committee hearings on
Capitol Hill.
Richard was blessed with three children

DEATH NOTICE
chael J. (Patricia), Jerome P. (Barry Lynn); two
sisters, Mary Kathleen Wood (Randy) and
Patricia Ann Irwin (John, deceased), and nu-
merous nephews, nieces, cousins and many
friends who loved him dearly.
David graduated from Portsmouth Catholic
High School in 1968 and earned a Bachelor
of Science in Mechanical Engineering at
Virginia Tech in 1972. He had a successful
career that included working for Marriott
International, MITRE and other engineering
ûrms. David also started his own engineer-
ing consulting business.
David loved to travel and experience the
world, enjoying many cruises and adven-
tures across the globe. He enjoyed restau-
rant meals with friends, especially break-
fast. As a very skilled handyman he helped
many people complete home projects with
perfection. He was a cherished friend to all
who knew and loved him with his infectious
smile and unwavering devotion. His ex-
ceptional kindness and concern for others
was a deûning trait of who he was. David
will remain treasured in the hearts of all
who knew him. Godspeed, our brother and
friend. A private service is being planned.
lege in Boston, Massachusetts, went onto to
do her Masters degree at Chapel Hill, North
Carolina. She was married to and is survived
by her husband Ambassador Pasi J. Rutanen
who currently resides in Helsinki Finland.
Soon after her studies, Lynn moved to Alex-
andria, Virginia, became an editor for Time-
Life and continued onto an entrepreneurial
career in writing and editing for multiple
international publications.
She married Pasi J Rutanen on November
12, 1982 and subsequently moved to Wash-
ington, DC. They lived and traveled around
the world including being residents in Hel-
sinki, Paris, Manila and Beijing. Lynn and Pasi
moved to and ultimately retired in Paris in
2001. Lynn was an avid literature and art
lover. She was a volunteer and contributor
to many charities, clubs and cultural societ-
ies around the world.
Lynn will be dearly missed by her husband
Pasi, the Rutanen families in Reston, Virginia
and Helsinki, Finland as well as friends and
relatives around the world. Lynn will be laid
to rest at the Holy Rood Cemetery in Wash-
ington, DC on November 12, 2022.
acy Farms, a Loudoun County based 501(c)3
non-proût organization established in 2012
to provide neurodiverse individuals educa-
tion, training, apprenticeships and job op-
portunities. She was honored by Shenando-
ah University in 2007 as Teacher of the Year
in Loudoun County for her work in special
education. Martha also served on the Balch
Library Commission and the Loudoun Liter-
acy Council, and, as a mother of three boys,
was a Cub Scout Den Mother.
Martha9s greatest love was her family, and
her favorite holiday was Thanksgiving which
brought her entire family together in her
home. It was her tradition to gather every-
one together in a circle before the Thanks-
giving meal and let everyone know how
much they were loved. And after her family
had gone, she would profess to have a <hole
in her heart= until they returned.
Martha is survived by the following family
members, each with a hole in their heart:
her husband of 37 years, Lawrence; their
three sons, Benjamin and his husband Zach,
Samuel, and Harrison and his wife Sarah;
her brother, Brooks Applegate III and his
wife Lissa, his son Brooks IV, and his daugh-
ters Kara and Mia; her mother-in-law, Fran-
ces Schonberger; her brother-in-law, James
Schonberger and his wife Debi, and their
sons Lester and Charlie; and her sister-in-
law, Susan Aitcheson and her daughter Lisa
and son Nick.
A celebration of Martha9s life will be held on
November 19, 2022, starting at 1 p.m. in the
banquet hall at the Ida Lee Recreation Cen-
ter located at 60 Ida Lee Drive NW, Leesburg,
Virginia 20176. Those wishing to honor Mar-
tha are encouraged to make a donation to

generosity, good humor and intellect were
appreciated by all who knew her. Marsha
grew up as an only child in Pittsburgh, PA.
Her father, Irwin Swiss was a U.S. attorney
as well as a Shakespearian and Hebraic
scholar. Her mother, Anne X. Alpern, was
one of eleven immigrant children, who be-
came City Solicitor of Pittsburgh and was
appointed by Governor David Lawrence
as the ûrst woman state Attorney General
in the U.S., as well as to the Pennsylvania
Supreme Court. Marsha was an honors pro-
gram graduate of Swarthmore College. She
was one of a small group of women admit-
ted to the class of 1965 at the Harvard Law
School. At Harvard she was renowned for
an audacious classroom retort to a taunt
by Professor Clark Byse, model for the
character Charles Kingsûeld in <The Paper
Chase.= Marsha was active with the DC Bar
in promoting alternative forms of dispute
resolution, although she reveled in litigation
in support of clients and patients who had
been abused by the skullduggery of profes-
sionals. She had a keen aesthetic sense and
delighted in both classical and contempo-
rary art and the welcoming of guests to a
beautiful dinner table set with ûowers from
her garden. In the Southwest she reveled in
ambitious hikes in the National Parks and in
the environs of Albuquerque. A memorial
service will be held in the new year.
and ûve grandchildren, and he always took
a special joy in the littlest ones. Following
retirement, he was gratiûed to become
the caregiver for his granddaughter when
her mother9s maternity leave came to an
end. The two had ûne adventures together,
identifying ûora, fauna and mailboxes, and
participating in a neighborhood play group
organized by the world9s most doting grand-
father.
Richard had potential as an artist and he
occasionally dabbled in sculpture, but his
ultimate creative outlet proved to be ûlling
his home with art, crafts, beloved memories,
and all manner of whimsy. He loved music
of many kinds and had a tremendous admi-
ration for those who could actually play it.
He enjoyed his share of convivial establish-
ments, and for a time he was a part owner
of Georgetown9s Third Edition. He was a
natural cook who loved to eat out but of-
ten found he could do it better at home.
He loved the beach his entire life, whether
on the Bay, the Eastern Shore, or the white
sands of South Carolina. Ski trips to Mon-
tana became a family favorite. He had a
keen sense of humor and a wry wit, and he
relished telling a good story. An avid reader
and student of history, he could pour him-
self into any subject and leave you spinning
with his descriptions of what he9d learned.
As someone once said, Richard wanted to
know everything about everything.
Over his lifetime, Richard met the rugged
challenges of the Philmont Scout Ranch, he
was there to hear Martin Luther King at the
Lincoln Memorial in 1963, and he watched
as the smoke poured from the Pentagon
on that terrible day in 2001. He was a man
of principle and honor who cared, suffered
and loved, and carried his memories close
to his heart.
Richard was one of a kind and he will be
sorely missed. He is survived by his loving
wife of 36 years, Sally Tedrow; his daughter
Katherine Astrich; his sons Richard Tedrow
(Courtney) and Patrick Tedrow; his grand-
children Cameron, Caroline, Wesley, Hale
and Hayden; his brother Tom Tedrow (Carla);
and many cousins, nieces and nephews. He
was preceded in death by his parents and
his sister Carol Newman. The family will re-
ceive friends from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Satur-
day, November 12, 2022 at Joseph Gawler9s
Sons, 5130 Wisconsin Avenue NW, Washing-
ton, DC 20016.

Astros, Baker put ring on it

faces scrutiny

Yordan Alvarez
faced Jose
Alvarado on
Saturday night,
and the view of
Barry that at-bat will
Svrluga forever be
emblazoned in
this city, because Minute Maid
Park shook when Alvarez made
contact and nearly came down
when the ball landed beyond the
center field wall.
The view of that very same at-
bat will be discussed in the
taverns in Philadelphia much
differently. In the City of
Brotherly Love, it should have
never happened. Zack Wheeler
will earn $118 million over five
seasons to pitch for the Phillies.
In the sixth inning of the sixth
game of the World Series, with
runners on first and third and
Philadelphia protecting a 1-0
lead, Wheeler had thrown all of
70 pitches.
Rob Thomson, the manager
who replaced him, did so much
right in both reviving the
Phillies9 season and navigating
them through the postseason.
The result was not only Alvarez9s
titanic shot that lifted the
Houston Astros to a 4-1 victory,
delivering their second
championship 4 and first
(presumably) untainted 4 in the
past six seasons.
The ancillary fallout of
Thomson9s hook of Wheeler:
Dusty Baker got to hoist the
trophy.
One side wrings its hands. The
other throws them in the air. For
once, the manager who made the
move that backfired in the
postseason wasn9t Baker.
Exhale, Dusty. You did it.

ASTROS 4,
PHILLIES 1
BY C HELSEA J ANES
houston 4 As many of the
Houston Astros celebrated their
World Series championship on
the Minute Maid Park field Satur-
day night, a smaller, just as exu-
berant celebration broke out in
the near corner of the home dug-
out. It was there that his coaches
and players piled on Manager
Dusty Baker, who had just won
his first World Series title in 30
years of managing with a 4-1
Game 6 win over the Philadelphia
Phillies.
In the end, the winning equa-
tion was simple: Framber Valdez
threw six dominant innings. Yor-
dan Alvarez hit a three-run homer
in the sixth to give the Astros a
lead. Their dominant bullpen
held it. Perhaps, after all that,
Baker had endured the difficult
part already.
The Astros completed a stun-
ning postseason run in which
they lost two games on their way
to their second title in six years 4
their first since the sign-stealing
scandal that forced them to clear
out their coaching staff, the one
that left them in need of a manag-
er capable of weathering inherit-
ed storms to come. Jeremy Peña,
who had 10 hits and three RBI in
25 at-bats, was the first rookie
position player to be named
World Series MVP.
Whether this win qualifies as
redemption for the Astros9 taint-
ed 2017 title is a question for the
collective baseball consciousness,
which can rarely agree on much
of anything. But one of the things
it does agree on is Baker, a pres-

Ledecky breaks record
in short-course 800
Katie Ledecky swam to a
world record of 7 minutes
57.42 seconds in the 800-meter
freestyle in a World Cup meet
Saturday night in Indianapolis.
The previous record of 7:59.34
by Spain9s Mireia Belmonte had
stood since 2013.
Indianapolis is one of three
stops on the World Cup circuit
organized by FINA, the world
governing body for aquatic
sports. The previous two were at
Berlin and Toronto.
The 25-year-old Bethesda
native won by nearly 10 seconds
over silver medalist Summer
McIntosh, a 16-year-old
Canadian, and earned a $10,000
bonus.
The world record was the 17th
by Ledecky since 2013, her second
in short course (25-meter pool)
and second set in Indianapolis.
She set the world record in long
course (50-meter pool) in the
1,500 freestyle with a time of
15:20.48 in the same pool May 16,
2018.
<I think I was putting a lot of
pressure on myself after last
week,= Ledecky said. <Having the
fans here cheering me on meant a
lot.=
Ledecky lowered the world
record in the short course 1,500
freestyle to 15:08.24 last week in
Toronto. Her time at 800 meters,
8:00.58, nearly broke Belmonte9s
world record for that distance.
Ledecky has seven Olympic
gold medals and 19 world
championship golds, both the
most by a female swimmer.

Ovechkin9s milestone wasted in loss
COYOTES 3,
CAPITALS 2
BY S AMANTHA P ELL
Alex Ovechkin9s ascension up
the all-time goals list continued
Saturday night at Capital One
Arena, with his second-period
strike moving him past Gordie
Howe for goals with a single
franchise (787). Anthony Man-
tha9s goal early in the third put
the Washington Capitals up two,
and they appeared to be cruising.
Until they weren9t. Arizona
responded with three unan-
swered goals, finishing things off
when Nick Ritchie collected a
loose puck and stuffed in a re-
bound with 35.4 seconds remain-
ing to hand the reeling Capitals a
stunning 3-2 loss. It was Ritchie9s
second goal of the night.
The Capitals have (5-6-2) lost
five of six.
<Injuries don9t have anything
to do with the game tonight,=
Coach Peter Laviolette said. <We
had a game. We were in control of
it. We were up 2-0. We needed to
bury it, and we didn9t. It9s on us.
Injuries are part of it, and there
are things we could have done on
the ice to win the third period or
be better in the third period.=
Ovechkin9s latest milestone
goal came from his signature
spot in the left circle on the
power play. Mantha doubled the
lead with a backhander from in
tight for his fourth goal of the
season.
Then it went sideways. The
Coyotes (4-6-1) cut Washington9s
lead in half with 13:27 remaining
off a rebound from Josh Brown.
Washington challenged for goal-
tender interference, but the call
stood. Ritchie then tied it with
his first goal, a blast from be-
tween the circles that slammed
into the crossbar and bounced
down and over the goal line. Play
continued for a few beats before
officials determined it to be a
goal.
Coyotes netminder Karel
Vejmelka finished with 34 saves.
Capitals goalie Darcy Kuemper
stopped 23 of 26 shots.
<Obviously, it9s a huge mo-
ment,= Ovechkin said of his mile-
stone goal. <The last couple
games it was big milestones, and
unfortunately, we didn9t get the
win. But it9s a special moment,
and it9s nice to have both my kids,
NHL ROUNDUP
Alex Ovechkin9s second-period goal was his 787th, moving him past
Gordie Howe for the NHL record for a player with one franchise.
my wife, all the fans. My parents
watched in Moscow. So it9s a
special moment.=
Ovechkin has scored seven
goals on the season and four in
the past five games. He is 15 goals
away from passing Howe for
second on the NHL9s all-time list.
The injury-ravaged Capitals
have needed Ovechkin9s offensive
spark. They have scored just
10 goals in the past six games.
The injury situation didn9t get
any better Saturday night. De-
fenseman Dmitry Orlov suffered
a lower-body injury in the first
period and did not return. Lavio-
lette had no update on his status
after the game. Washington was
already playing without veteran
defenseman John Carlson, who is
on injured reserve after getting
hurt last week in Nashville.
<No excuses, obviously. It
starts from us leaders and we
can9t blame [injuries] on it,=
Ovechkin said. <We have to pull
on the rope with all our hands
and don9t panic and don9t think
it9s over. We just have to bounce
back and play together as a team
and as a group.=
The loss marked the start of
Washington9s four-game home-
stand, the longest of the season.
The Capitals9 next game is Mon-
day against Edmonton. For the
Coyotes, it was their first of
14 consecutive contests on the
road, matching the longest
stretch of games away from home
in NHL history. The extensive
trip is mainly the product of
scheduling conflicts for the Coy-
otes9 temporary home at Arizona
State University.

Wednesday. Signed to a one-year,

Milano, 26, recorded two goals
and one assist in five games for

Milano had a decent early

assists (11) with the Stanley Cup-
winning Colorado Avalanche last
season.
To make room for Aube-Kubel
on their roster, the Capitals sent
Garrett Pilon back to Hershey.
Pilon was recalled last week but
had not gotten any ice time.
Aube-Kubel, a right-handed
shot, was chosen in the second
round of the 2014 NHL draft by
Philadelphia.
Carlson on the ice
Carlson practiced for the first
time since he was injured last
week. Carlson suffered a lower-
body injury after an awkward
collision into the boards and was
retroactively placed on injured
reserve. He is not eligible to play
until Monday against Edmonton.
Laviolette said Saturday9s
practice was encouraging but
was coy about whether he would
play against the Oilers. Carlson
was in a full-contact jersey at
Saturday9s practice.
Caps wear Reverse Retros
The Capitals debuted their
black Reverse Retro <screaming
eagle= jersey against the Coyotes.
The Capitals will wear these al-
ternate jerseys for six additional
home games this season.
Washington brought back the
screaming eagle with a red, white
and blue color scheme for its first
Reverse Retro uniform during
the 2020-21 season. This year9s
Reverse Retro design combines
the original screaming eagle look
with the black-and-copper color
scheme of the third jersey the
Capitals introduced in 1997 and
that replaced the team9s road
blue jersey in 2000.
Kuemper also paid homage to
Olie Kolzig with his new Reverse
Retro goalie mask that has a
depiction of Godzilla on it. Kolzig
wore his signature Godzilla goal-
ie mask during the Capitals9 1998
Stanley Cup finals run.

Spartans come up big on defense to upend No. 16 Illini
MICHIGAN STATE 23,
ILLINOIS 15
BY G AVIN G OOD
champaign, ill. 4 Payton
Thorne didn9t mince words about
the negative cloud that hovered
above Michigan State9s football
program this week.
The Spartans quarterback said
in the days leading to Saturday9s
game at Illinois (No. 16 in the
College Football Playoff rank-
ings) that <we9re all we got= and
<no one is coming to save us=
after an embarrassing loss to
rival Michigan and an uglier
postgame fight that prompted
suspensions for eight Michigan
State players.
Yet Michigan State fought
through it all for perhaps its
biggest win of the season as
Thorne threw for 182 yards and
two touchdowns in a 23-15 victo-
ry over the Illini (7-2, 4-2 Big Ten).
<I remember my dad telling
me, 8There9s a lot of opportunity
in adversity,9 = Thorne said. <Ob-
viously, it was a pretty adverse
situation this week. We definitely
had some things happen to us
that you wouldn9t normally wish
to happen, but we came out here
and we played with the guys we
had and the coaches we had, and
we played our butts off.=
The Spartans (4-5, 2-4)
stopped the Illini five times on
fourth down to bounce back from
last week9s ugliness.
Despite the absences, the Spar-
tans hung tough on the road
against a ranked opponent 4 and
threw a little chaos in the Big Ten
West race.
Spartans wideout Jayden Reed
got loose for a 16-yard touch-
down reception for a 23-7 lead
with 2:57 to go, and the defense
did enough to halt a late come-
back effort. Quarterback Tommy
DeVito and the Illini (7-2, 4-2 Big
Ten) stalled at the Michigan
State 25 when time expired.
No. 2 Buckeyes will take tougher-than-expected victory in rough conditions
OHIO STATE 21,
NORTHWESTERN 7
BY A NDREW S ELIGMAN
evanston, ill. 4 Ryan Day was
more than willing to take the win
and move on from this one. The
way the wind was blowing and the
rain was falling, it was hard to
blame the Ohio State coach.
Miyan Williams ran for
111 yards and two touchdowns,
and the Buckeyes overcame the
ugly weather and a stiff challenge
from Northwestern to win, 21-7,
on Saturday.
Ohio State (9-0, 6-0 Big Ten) is
ranked second in the initial Col-
lege Football Playoff rankings, but
what figured to be an easy win
turned into a struggle.
Kelly gambles, Tigers
make out with an upset
Jayden Daniels ran for a 25-
yard touchdown in overtime and
then found Mason Taylor for a do-
or-die two-point conversion, and
15th-ranked LSU defeated No. 6
Alabama, 32-31, on Saturday
night to give first-year Tigers
coach Brian Kelly his first victory
over Nick Saban.
The surprising victory in a
riveting game that included six
second-half lead changes and a
tying field goal by Alabama in the
final 30 seconds also gave LSU
(7-2, 5-1 SEC) control of the SEC
West Division with two league
games remaining.
Alabama (7-2, 4-2) began
overtime with the ball and took a
31-24 lead on Roydell Williams9s
second touchdown of the game.
But Daniels needed just one
play in overtime to score and
force a decision by Kelly to try to
tie it with a kick or let Daniels try
to win it.
<I just love the way our guys
competed. I didn9t want to keep
going in overtime,= Kelly said as
jubilant fans stormed onto the
field. <It just felt like it was the
right time to try to win the game.=
Alabama, favored by nearly
two touchdowns, lost in Tiger
Stadium for the first time since
2010. Kelly, who as Notre Dame9s
coach lost to Saban and Alabama
twice in college football9s
postseason, became the coach to
break that streak.

Tight end Maliq Carr beats defender Sydney Brown to haul in a pass for Michigan State, which stopped Illinois five times on fourth down to upset the Illini on the road.
The win keeps Michigan
State9s bowl hopes alive with
three games left, including home
matchups against Big Ten East
stragglers Rutgers and Indiana.
Illinois, which could have
moved within one win of clinch-
ing the Big Ten West with a
victory, carries a one-game West
lead with Purdue coming to town
next week.
The heavy rain that fell at times
and gusting winds that blew pass-
es off course all afternoon helped
make it that way. Northwestern9s
physical play, particularly in the
early going, only added to the
difficulties.
<I9ve never been around condi-
tions like this,= Day said. <It must
have been 30 [mph] winds. And if
you9ve ever tried to golf in
30-mile-an-hour winds, it9s hard

Stroud, the Big Ten leader in

with 76. He completed just 10 of
26 passes in his only game this
year without a touchdown throw.
But he ran for 79 yards, a big
number particularly for a quarter-
back who had minus-4 coming in.
<We had to find another way to
win,= Stroud said. <I9m like that

The Buckeyes set by far a sea-

total yards and points this season
for an offense that entered the
weekend first nationally in both
categories.
Hooker completed 23 of 33
pass attempts for 195 yards and
threw just his second intercep-
tion of the season. The redshirt
senior had been averaging 292.3
passing yards before facing the
SEC9s top-ranked defense in both
total yards and scoring. The unit
dominated despite being without
standout linebacker Nolan
Smith, who suffered a season-
ending pectoral injury in last
week9s 42-20 win over Florida.
Still, the Volunteers9 path to
the CFP remains on somewhat
steady ground given their body of
work, which includes five victo-
ries over opponents ranked at the
time in the Associated Press top
25. The most notable of those was
against Alabama, sixth in the
CFP, in Knoxville, Tenn., last
month.
Stetson Bennett, Hooker9s oc-
casionally overlooked counter-
part, directed three first-half
touchdown drives, the first of
which ended on his 13-yard run
around the right side that put the
Bulldogs ahead to stay at 7-3 in
the first quarter.
The senior outran safety Jay-
len McCollough to the edge, div-
ing toward and hitting the pylon
for his sixth rushing touchdown
this season and the 10th of his
career, compelling teammates to
hoist him high in celebration as
Bennett urged on raucous sup-
porters jumping in the end zone
stands.
Midway through the fourth
quarter, fans serenaded the whis-
Georgia wideout Ladd McConkey caught a pass in stride for a 37-yard touchdown and a 14-3 lead.
per-quiet Tennessee sideline
with chants of <overrated,= elect-
ing to remain in their seats
through a storm that moved
through the area and remind a
small swath of Volunteers back-
ers that the road to college foot-
ball supremacy still runs through
Athens.
<It was electric,= Georgia
Coach Kirby Smart said of the
crowd noise, which contributed
to Tennessee committing seven
false start penalties. <You get that
when you have a good defense in
front of you.=
In developments reinforcing
the enormity of the proceedings,
entire sections of the stadium
began filling up with Bulldogs
fans, some clad in red from head
to toe, roughly 90 minutes before
kickoff. They greeted Tennessee
players with resounding boos
during warmups.
It was among the many indica-
tions of the fan base9s indignation
that the CFP committee seeded
the reigning national champions
two spots below the Volunteers,
who arrived in enemy territory
seeking a second win inside a
month against a participant in
last season9s CFP.
The Volunteers had been rid-
ing a wave of convincing tri-
umphs that began with thump-
ing LSU, 40-13, in Death Valley.
Then came the program9s most
consequential victory in decades,
52-49 over the Crimson Tide,
which lost to Georgia in last
season9s CFP final.
The resurgence led to Hooker
vaulting to the top of discussion
for the Heisman Trophy, but the
transfer from Virginia Tech
played like anything but in the
first quarter. The Bulldogs man-
aged to rattle Hooker with relent-
less pressure, including a crush-
ing hit in the end zone from
defensive tackle Jalen Carter that
forced a fumble.
Tennessee guard Javontez
Spraggins recovered the ball and
ran, with officials ruling he had
advanced just beyond the goal
line to avoid a safety. But the
Bulldogs quickly cashed in on the
JOHN BAZEMORE/ASSOCIATED PRESS
ensuing field position they ac-
quired from Tennessee having to
punt in the shadow of the goal
post. Wide receiver Ladd McCon-
key badly beat safety Doneiko
Slaughter down the right side-
line, and Bennett delivered a
throw McConkey caught in stride
on the way to an uncontested
37-yard touchdown with 3:32 to
play in the first quarter.
Slaughter also was out of posi-
tion on Bennett9s next touch-
down pass to wide receiver Mar-
cus Rosemy-Jacksaint, which
opened a 21-3 lead 43 seconds
into the second quarter, exposing
a pass defense that came in
ranked 127th in the country.
<There9s things that we9ll learn
from tonight,= Volunteers Coach
Josh Heupel said. <As a program,
you9ve got to understand what
you9re getting yourself into. . . .
The emotional part of the foot-
ball game, had to be able to settle
into it early in the game. We did
not do that in a positive way. It9s
an opportunity for us to learn.
We9ll be better.=

O THER GA MES

Chargers (4-3) at Falcons (4-4), 1 p.m. » Thanks to its nutty overtime
victory over Carolina on Sunday, Atlanta sits atop the NFC South. It9s a
precarious perch, though, with Tampa Bay, despite its struggles and Tom
Brady9s funk, and New Orleans only one game back.
Dolphins (5-3) at Bears (3-5), 1 p.m. » When Tua Tagovailoa starts and
plays at least three quarters, the Dolphins are 5-0. Can he overcome a
defense that gave up 40 points to the Jets and 393 yards to the Lions?
(The addition of star pass rusher Bradley Chubb at Tuesday9s trade
deadline should help those numbers.) Dolphins wideout Tyreek Hill has
over half a season left to break Calvin Johnson9s 10-year-old NFL single-
season record for the most games with 10 receptions and 160 receiving
yards. They9re tied with four at the moment.
Panthers (2-6) at Bengals (4-4), 1 p.m. » There is zero margin for error in
a season filled with middling teams. Just ask Carolina wideout D.J. Moore,
who took off his helmet to celebrate his touchdown catch against the
Falcons and was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct. That led to a
missed extra point attempt, a missed field goal in overtime and a loss that
dropped the Panthers into the NFC South cellar rather than a win that
would have created a four-way tie for the division lead.
Packers (3-5) at Lions (1-6), 1 p.m. » <I feel like if we can just get one
[win], then the whole momentum changes,= Green Bay quarterback Aaron
Rodgers said Sunday night after his team lost its fourth game in a row. The
game in Detroit might present an excellent opportunity unless the Lions
suddenly revert to the form they showed when they had the league9s top
scoring offense over the first month of the season.
Raiders (2-5) at Jaguars (2-6), 1 p.m. » With Jacksonville9s latest loss
Sunday in London, Trevor Lawrence now has a 5-20 record that is the
worst through 25 starts among quarterbacks taken first overall in the NFL
draft in the common draft era (since 1967).
ADRIAN KRAUS/ASSOCIATED PRESS
Quarterback Josh Allen and the Bills travel to play the surprising
Jets as they look to maintain their status as AFC front-runners.
Colts (3-4-1) at Patriots (4-4), 1 p.m. » At least Sam Ehlinger, whose
passes gained 8.7 yards per attempt against Washington on Sunday in his
first career start, managed to avoid the killer interceptions that doomed
Matt Ryan, who was benched before that game. Mac Jones looked okay for
New England, which continues to own the Jets. He was sacked six times
but passed for 194 yards with a touchdown and an interception.
Bills (6-1) at Jets (5-3), 1 p.m. » With victories over the teams of Matthew
Stafford, Lamar Jackson, Patrick Mahomes and Rodgers this season,
Buffalo sure looks like a Super Bowl favorite.
Seahawks (5-3) at Cardinals (3-5), 4:05 p.m. » Seattle needs to focus
on a defense that is 29th in the league in yards allowed and 28th in points
allowed. Arizona has only one road game over the next month-plus, but the
Cardinals are 4-8 at home since the beginning of the 2021 season. Seattle
won these teams9 Oct. 16 matchup, 19-9.
Rams (3-4) at Buccaneers (3-5), 4:25 p.m., WUSA-9, WJZ-13 » Maybe
Tampa Bay will put together a December winning streak, the way it did in
2020 when it went on to win the Super Bowl. But that team, in addition to
winning four in a row in December and all four in January/February, also
had a three-game winning streak in October. Tom Brady is winless against
Los Angeles with Tampa Bay.
Titans (5-2) at Chiefs (5-2), 8:20 p.m., WRC-4, WBAL-11 » Tennessee is
on a roll after an 0-2 start, but after Kansas City, the Titans have a
character-revealing go of it against Cincinnati, Philadelphia and Dallas.
Tennessee is 5-1 against the Chiefs since 2014, including 2-1 with
Mahomes at quarterback for Kansas City. Titans quarterback Ryan
Tannehill, who missed last week9s game with an ankle injury, will be a
game-time decision.
Ravens (5-3) at Saints (3-5), Monday 8:15 p.m., ESPN, ESPN2 » None
of Baltimore9s remaining opponents are over .500 at the moment (with the
Bengals at 4-4), and the Ravens just improved their defense with the
addition of former Bears linebacker Roquan Smith. Still, New Orleans can
be pesky 4 just ask the Raiders.

<consider potential transactions.=
<It sounds like a positive move
for the team,= Bowser told report-
ers Wednesday. <There have been
a lot of objections raised about
the team coming back to RFK,
where it played for many years,
and the ownership was one. The
name was one. So I think a num-
ber of the obstacles that people
have raised as criticisms [are go-
ing away].=
Jack Evans, who as former fi-
nance chair of the D.C. Council
spent years trying to pave the way
for a new NFL stadium at the site
of RFK, said he remained opti-
mistic that a deal could be struck
despite Snyder9s lack of political
allies and unpopularity with fans.
That changed, in Evans9s view, the
moment Congress started investi-
gating allegations of widespread
workplace sexual harassment un-
der Snyder9s watch.
<It just became impossible
with Dan there, not only for us but
for Virginia and Maryland,= said
Evans, who was instrumental in
structuring deals that brought
Capital One Arena and Nationals
Park to the District. <It became a
game-breaker. As long as he owns
the team, there will not be a new
stadium. Period. That9s just not
going to happen 4 unless he
builds on land he already owns at
FedEx Field, which would be a
disaster, and did that with his
own money.=
If Snyder sells the team in full
rather than takes on a co-investor,
it could revive efforts to drum up
competition for a new stadium
among the three jurisdictions de-
spite arguments over the wisdom
of public subsidies.
Political football
Snyder unveiled plans for a
glitzy stadium surrounded by a
moat, at a site to be determined,
in a nationally televised segment
on <60 Minutes= in March 2016.
More than six years later, the
team has no site, no suitors and
no plan for financing the roughly
60,000-seat, open-air facility that
Snyder envisions anchoring a
vast commercial and residential
complex. The team is contractual-
ly obligated to play at FedEx Field
in Landover until 2027. Without a
new stadium, it can continue
playing there indefinitely be-
cause Snyder owns the land and
the aging stadium, which opened
in 1997.
Until June, Virginia had been
the most aggressive jurisdiction
expressing interest in offering
Snyder public funds for the proj-
ect. But lawmakers failed to pass
stadium-authority legislation
this year because of the team9s
scandals.
Legislators could try again in
early 2023, although there9s no
sign of a push to do so.
<I think [a full sale of the Com-
manders] alleviates a lot of the
question marks and clouds,= Vir-
Aging FedEx Field has been downsized several times, and the Commanders now rank last in the NFL in game-day attendance at 58,720.
ginia state Sen. Jeremy S. McPike
(D-Prince William) said in an in-
terview with WUSA9 last week,
citing the pending investigations
and <other noise= surrounding
the organization. <Frankly, hope-
fully, they focus on winning the
games like they did on [Sunday].=
Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin
(R) responded to news of a poten-
tial Commanders sale by telling
reporters, <We9ll let them make
that decision, and then we9ll re-
act.=
He added: <I'll repeat what I9ve
said for a long time: Virginia
should be the best place to live,
work and raise a family. And it9d
be a great place to have a profes-
sional football team.=
In Maryland, state legislators
in April authorized $400 million
in bonds to develop Metro9s Blue
Line corridor that includes FedEx
Field and the site of a potential
new stadium. Repeated failed ef-
forts to secure a new stadium
have frustrated outgoing Gov.
Larry Hogan (R), who last month
told reporters, <We9ve been trying
to work with them for eight
years.=
Wes Moore, the Democratic
candidate to replace Hogan as
governor, said in a statement
through a spokesman that he
hopes Maryland keeps the team
but would not <support leverag-
ing hundreds of millions in tax-
payer dollars to do it.=
In a statement, Republican
candidate Del. Dan Cox did not
comment on how the sale might
impact the state9s negotiation
with the team over any future
stadium deals.
It9s unclear whether Maryland
would offer more to convince the
team to stay in Prince George9s
County, regardless of its owner.
But County Executive Angela D.
Alsobrooks (D) issued a state-
ment last week stressing the mer-
its of the team remaining in
Prince George9s.
<We continue to believe that
Largo is the best suited location
for the Washington Command-
ers,= Alsobrooks9s statement read.
<A new Commanders stadium
would be in the heart of down-
town Largo and our Blue Line
Corridor.=
Even with a new owner, Bowser
probably would face opposition
from the D.C. Council to bring the
team back to the city.
D.C. Council member Charles
Allen (D-Ward 6), who represents
neighborhoods near RFK Sta-
dium, wrote a letter to Del. Elea-
nor Holmes Norton (D) in June on
behalf of seven of the 13 members
saying that an NFL stadium on
the site is a nonstarter.
The 190-acre RFK site is owned
by the federal government via the
National Park Service. Norton has
introduced legislation that would
enable D.C. officials to buy the
land and, in turn, decide what to
do with it. Norton9s position is
that if D.C. wants its NFL team to
return and buys the land, it would
be free to negotiate a deal to do
just that.
Last week, Allen welcomed the
prospect of an ownership change
but reiterated his opposition to a
stadium.
<[Snyder] finally making a
good decision here for the team &
what it means to so many in the
DC area,= Allen wrote on Twitter
on Wednesday. <Still . . . finding a
better billionaire to own the team
won9t make building a massive &
rarely used NFL stadium at RFK a
good idea. Let9s focus on more
housing, jobs, & parks instead.=
Evans, who started working on
plans for a new NFL stadium at
RFK just a few years after former
owner Jack Kent Cooke aban-
doned the site for Prince George9s
in 1997, argues that the District is
by far the best location not only
for fans, given its easy access and
storied tradition, but also for the
league.
<I believe the NFL wants to be
in the District of Columbia, at the
RFK site. Why? Because the NFL
spends, I believe, $2 million a
year lobbying Congress,= said Ev-
ans, who resigned after 28 years
on the Council amid ethics viola-
tions and now serves as a
D.C.-based consultant. <They
know the value of the federal
government and its support of the
league.=
Cost of business
Snyder, 57, who bought Wash-
ington9s NFL team with two for-
mer business partners for
$800 million in 1999, has not said
what precipitated his sudden in-
terest in soliciting a buyer, wheth-
er in part or in full, after battling
for years in court, in the media
and via private investigators to
tighten his grip on the franchise.
Forbes magazine in August es-
timated the present-day value of
the franchise as $5.6 billion.
Snyder remains the focus of
four investigations 4 by former
U.S. attorney Mary Jo White on
behalf of the NFL, by the House
Committee on Oversight and Re-
form and by the attorneys general
in the District and Virginia. In
addition, investigators for the
U.S. attorney9s office for the East-
ern District of Virginia have inter-
viewed witnesses regarding alle-
gations of financial improprieties
involving the team, according to
multiple people familiar with the
situation.
As recently as Oct. 18, in re-
sponse to Indianapolis Colts own-
er Jim Irsay9s unprecedented pub-
lic remarks that he believed the
idea of NFL owners removing
Snyder from their ranks had mer-
it, Snyder said through a team
spokesperson that he would nev-
er sell the team.
Irsay9s comments followed a
privately expressed sentiment of
multiple NFL owners who told
The Washington Post they be-
lieved the league and owners
should consider removing Snyder
or convincing him to sell.
During his weekly radio ap-
pearance on 105.3 the Fan, Dallas
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones
pointed to Snyder9s finances as a
reason.
While Snyder and his family
own 100 percent of the franchise,
he is carrying a heavy debt bur-
den. In March 2021, the NFL
granted him a waiver to borrow
an additional $450 million so he
could buy out the 40 percent
collective stake of limited part-
ners Dwight Schar, Frederick W.
Smith and Robert Rothman, with
whom he was embroiled in a legal
dispute, for $875 million. That
loan must be repaid by 2028 for
Snyder to remain in the league.
Added to Snyder9s unretired
debt on the stadium, that would
appear to make borrowing fur-
ther to finance a $2 billion sta-
dium untenable. If Snyder could
find an investor interested in buy-
ing a minority share in the team,
that could provide the cash to
KATHERINE FREY/THE WASHINGTON POST
build a stadium himself in Mary-
land with the state contributing
public funds only toward infra-
structure.
Jones said that9s why he was
unsurprised Snyder was explor-
ing options.
<He recently acquired a very
significant portion of the team by
40 percent from his other part-
ners, and at the same time, he9s
entertaining the building of a
new stadium. . . . It9s going to
require huge economic resourc-
es,= Jones said. <This doesn9t sur-
prise me that he9s in a time of real
planning and thinking about how
to manage the economic resourc-
es it takes that we want Washing-
ton to be.=
Snyder9s failure to show prog-
ress on delivering a new NFL
stadium 4 with no site set and no
evidence of political or public
support for helping him finance
the project 4 does not sit well
with several NFL owners who
were once impressed by Snyder9s
business acumen.
Within years of buying the
team, Snyder expanded FedEx
Field to seat nearly 92,000 and led
the NFL in average attendance.
After two decades of losing sea-
sons that also have included
front-office turmoil, roster churn
and workplace controversy, the
stadium has been downsized at
least three times. Washington
ranks last among the 32 NFL
teams in game-day attendance,
drawing just 58,720.
Economic engine
For the Commanders, a new
owner with a new stadium would
represent the best chance of re-
booting enthusiasm for a team
that for decades united the region
but has posted just six winning
seasons in 23 years under Snyder.
If done properly, a new sta-
dium also would be a boon for the
team9s bottom line as well as for
the NFL.
<A stadium is an engine for
local revenue,= said former NFL
executive vice president Eric
Grubman, who was instrumental
in helping numerous teams de-
velop new stadiums from financ-
ing through construction during
his 2004-2018 tenure as the
league9s senior manager of busi-
ness operations 4 including the
growth.=
Grubman, who left the NFL in
2018 and now works with the
publicly traded gaming company
Supergroup and DroneUp, de-
clined to comment on any aspect
of a potential Commanders sale
but addressed why new and new-
ly refurbished stadiums are so
important to the league.
All NFL owners share equally
in the league9s multibillion-dollar
national broadcast deals, which
account for the bulk of their rev-
enue. What makes one team
worth more than another, in large
part, is the additional local rev-
enue that NFL owners generate
via luxury-suite sales, stadium
naming rights deals, corporate
sponsorships, personal-seat li-
censes and other stadium-related
revenue.
According to Forbes.com, the
Cowboys9 revenue increased
50 percent, from $280 million to
$420 million, in 2009, the year
AT&T Stadium opened.
New stadiums increase a fran-
chise9s value, in turn. In the case
of the Commanders, a potential
buyer might push for a discount-
ed price because FedEx Field is
aging and underperforming fi-
nancially. Conversely, the team9s
value would increase consider-
ably with the assurance of a sta-
dium deal in a prime location
under favorable terms.
The Los Angeles Rams9 SoFi
Stadium, anchor of a $5 billion to
$6 billion commercial complex
largely financed by team owner
and billionaire developer Stan
Kroenke, reset the value of the
franchise after it opened in Sep-
tember 2020.
Forbes estimated the Rams
were worth $3.8 billion in 2019
and $6.2 billion in August.
SoFi Stadium, also the leased
home of the Los Angeles Char-
gers, proved a boon for the NFL as
well in setting revenue records as
host of last season9s Super Bowl. It
also will host matches during the
2026 FIFA World Cup 4 an op-
portunity denied the D.C. area
because of the shortcomings of
FedEx Field.
<When you have a declining or
decrepit stadium, it affects the
enthusiasm of people coming to
visit,= Grubman said. <If things
are shabby or there are leaks, it9s
not a premium experience. Or for
players, if the visiting locker room
doesn9t look anywhere near like
what it looks like at other stadi-
ums 4 these things all have an
effect on branding, marketing
and morale.
<A stadium is also a monument
that can be a magnetic attraction
for a city or a region to bring
people in. You build a beautiful
stadium, and it9s going to be mar-
keted to the entire planet by NFL
TV. A city doesn9t have to do
anything for people to know it9s
there: Hundreds of millions of
eyeballs and ears will see and
hear it courtesy of television.=

does Kirk Cousins (65-60-2), now
a Viking, whom Heinicke will
face at FedEx Field on Sunday.
Small data sample? Yes. But
the things Heinicke has done in
his small sample add up quickly.
For example, Aaron Rodgers,
Patrick Mahomes and Hall of
Famer Sonny Jurgensen played a
combined 42 seasons. None of
them had a season with four
game-winning drives in the
fourth quarter.
Heinicke did it last year in his
only season as a consistent
starter.
Then on Sunday he had his
fifth fourth-quarter game-
winning drive 4 let9s call them
GWDs 4 in only his 18th career
start.
Heinicke also has four fourth-
quarter comebacks, which, for
most quarterbacks, are even
rarer. Why? You can get a GWD
<just= for leading a field goal
drive in a game that9s tied in the
fourth quarter or overtime.
However, a 4QC must prevent a
loss and also end with a win or
tie.
Even by small-sample
standards, Heinicke9s 4QC and
GWD totals are nuts. I haven9t
found anybody 4 ever,
regardless of sample size 4 with
such a high ratio of late-game
dramatics. (But I9m still
searching.) Those stats, as
tracked by Pro Football
Reference, go back so far that we
know Hall of Famer Sammy
Baugh, D.C.9s greatest player,
needed 16 years to amass his
19 GWDs.
For reference, a great ratio in
recent times is Peyton Manning9s
43 4QCs and 54 GWDs in
265 starts. In 214 starts, Rodgers
has 19 4QCs and 28 GWDs. Yes,
he often has his team in the lead.
But what Heinicke is doing is
rare, hard and special in a parity
league built for close games.
Heinicke9s standing in
traditional quarterback stats
over the past two years 4 like his
87.1 quarterback rating 4 put
him in the middle of the pack of
starting QBs. His numbers do
NOT say <backup.=
Yes, I remember how Heinicke
was bum-rushed into 7-for-22
irrelevance in that 56-14 loss at
Dallas last year. But I9m also
aware that last year he won
starts against Tom Brady, Russell
Wilson, Cam Newton, Derek
Carr, Matt Ryan and Jones. This
year, Rodgers.
Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. signaled touchdown
as Taylor Heinicke capped his latest game-winning drive last week.
Heinicke has long played with
an offense that9s about a dozen
cards shy of a full deck. In 2021,
he was the team9s second-leading
rusher 4 with 313 yards. He had
only one receiver with 400 yards;
Kansas City had five. With
29 missed games by Curtis
Samuel, Logan Thomas and J.D.
McKissic, Heinicke often had
just two offensive weapons and
three virtual voids at the rest of
the skill positions.
This season, after spending
money and draft picks on the
glaze-gazed Wentz, Washington
left itself open to calamity if it
had even normal O-line injuries.
The Commanders9 line is so
shredded now it might send Iron
Man to the injured list. That9s
irony in Snyder World, a
JOHN MCDONNELL/THE WASHINGTON POST
purgatory we devoutly hope the
team escapes soon. Now
Heinicke has better weapons, but
the Five Turnstiles are protecting
him.
In the last two drives Sunday,
covering 82 and 89 yards 4 in
which he nailed 12 of 14 passes
for 151 yards, plus ran four times
for 15 yards 4 here9s what
Heinicke had to do.
On fourth and one with 1:40 to
play, Heinicke showed why he9s
suited to late, close and scary. To
avoid the rush, he moved up in
the pocket, then retreated and
reset before finally abandoning
the play and rolling out to his
right for a 12-yard completion.
One play later, he shrugged
under a rush, whack-a-mole
style, then one-handed a chest
looked right, rolled left, directed
traffic to freeze defenders, then
scrambled for nine yards to pick
up a first down as he ran out of
bounds to stop the clock.
Seconds later, still in the
hurry-up spread offense that he
loves, he stood in the pocket and
threw a rope over the middle to
Cam Sims for 21 yards. Then
came the play you remember 4
the 33-yard bomb to Terry
McLaurin. Until I saw it in slow
motion, I didn9t realize how
quick Heinicke9s feet are when
necessary and how easy it is to
understate his value in turning a
failed play into a second or third
variation.
Because of pressure in his
face, Heinicke had to set the
pocket three times 4 at nine, 12
and finally 14 yards deep. The
play was broken, but time had
been bought. McLaurin broke
deep in a scramble drill and
Heinicke lofted the ball 47 yards
in the air to him at the 1-yard
line.
In postgame TV comments,
analysts critiqued that if the ball
had been thrown a yard further,
McLaurin wouldn9t have had to
make such a dazzling, wrestling
catch.
I have had enough of this. I
don9t know how good Heinicke
can become 4 maybe he9s as
good as he will ever get right
obscure (football) school but
instead was taken with, say, the
102nd overall pick in the fourth
round as a project.
Like Cousins.
In his first three seasons and
407 passes, as Cousins learned
the NFL, he was 2-7 as a starter
with an 18-19 touchdown-to-
interception ratio and a
77.5 quarterback rating. Then,
helped by whimsical Jay Gruden,
an offensive thinker miscast as a
head coach, Cousins eventually
ended up with more than
$100 million in guaranteed
contracts.
Debate Cousins9s true worth at
your leisure. But he took a major
step from backup to consistent
4,000-yard passer because he
was smart and learned with
more starts.
Nothing we have seen implies
that Heinicke will ever be an
elite quarterback. But who says
that is necessary? Joe Gibbs said
you needed a quarterback who
was tough, smart and a leader 4
but not necessarily a star. Then
you build a whole excellent team
with him as one part 4 and that
team in turn makes the
quarterback look better, too.
Right now, that is as decent a
battle plan as is available to
Washington. And Heinicke has
earned a chance to show
whether he can be that sort of
player.

On passed since Tom
the NFL Brady9s public
JASON rumination on the
LA CANFORA state of the NFL
game, and it
seems that plenty of other bright
football minds tend to agree
with him.
<I watch a lot of bad football,=
Brady said in early October.
<Poor quality of football. That9s
what I see.=
The prime-time windows this
season have often featured
teams ill-prepared or ill-
equipped to play entertaining
football or to move the ball in
the way we have come to expect
in the pass-happy NFL. On-field
coaching decisions and in-game
management have seemed, to
many inside and outside the
league, more baffling than ever.
The inevitable officiating
controversies (this year mostly
surrounding roughing-the-
passer calls) haven9t helped.
Penalties have been a scourge for
some teams, quarterback play
has been erratic, and one of the
more salient scenes from the
first half of the season featured
Denver fans leaving in droves as
the Broncos and Colts headed to
overtime during what would end
up a 12-9 blemish of a football
contest.
<The product is low quality
right now,= a prominent player
agent said, unsolicited, during a
conversation about a different
topic. (He spoke on the
condition of anonymity in part
not to offend some of his clients.)
<There9s too much low-IQ

ANALYSIS
The Falcons run the ball no matter what. That has carried them into ûrst place.
BY D ES B IELER
While the Atlanta Falcons are
only 4-4, they already are on the
verge of topping oddsmakers9
preseason win total and, more
importantly, are alone in first
place in the NFC South. The Fal-
cons have clawed back to .500
from losing records three times
with help from impressive wins
against the Seattle Seahawks and
San Francisco 49ers, and their
most recent victory came in a
bizarre nail-biter in overtime
Sunday against the division rival
Carolina Panthers.
All of this could be a lot for a
young team to handle, but Atlan-
ta Coach Arthur Smith has found
a highly effective way of keeping
it grounded: by keeping the ball
on the ground as much as possi-
ble.
When the Falcons are ahead,
they run. When they9re behind,
they run.
Even when trailing by three
touchdowns early in a road game
4 as was the case in a Week 7 loss
to the Cincinnati Bengals 4 they
run. Down 21-0 in the third quar-
ter at Tampa Bay in Week 5, the
Falcons called 18 more rushing
plays, including on every play of
one of their two subsequent
touchdown drives, and they could
have been in position to win if not
for a controversial roughing-the-
passer call that allowed Tom Bra-
dy and the Buccaneers to hold on.
<It9s very different because
most teams look to throw the ball,
but the Falcons, they established
their identity as they9re a run

Dean told the Athletic after that

Atlanta9s Patterson is activated from injured reserve, says he9s 8at 90 percent9
F ROM NEWS SERVICES
Atlanta Falcons running back
Cordarrelle Patterson, who
missed the past four games while
on injured reserve after undergo-
ing left knee surgery, was activat-
ed to the 53-man roster Saturday.
The Falcons, who are set to host
the Los Angeles Chargers on Sun-
day, released outside linebacker
Quinton Bell to make room for
Patterson.

who has a knee injury, was placed
on injured reserve, and defensive

average NFL passer rating was
94.5 4 12 qualified passers had a
rating of at least 100 4 with
408 touchdowns thrown to
191 interceptions. Entering this
week, only seven qualified
quarterbacks had a rating above
100, and the average rating was
90.2, with 338 touchdown passes
and 188 interceptions. Couple
that with what many executives
believe to be a coaching crisis,
and you might have found the
epicenter of the unsightly
product.
<How many teams have the
right coach and the right
quarterback?= asked one
successful general manager,
speaking on the condition of
anonymity so as not to alienate
his peers or incur penalties from
the league office. <There9s not
that many. If you have one or the
other, you9ll win enough games
to hang around and be in most
games, which the league wants.
Parity.
<If you only have one, there9s
game. <They9re going to stick to
their game plan. It9s different, and
they9ll catch you off guard if
you9re not aware.=
The Cleveland Browns, who
also feature a run-focused attack,
may not have been ready for what
hit them in a Week 4 loss at
Atlanta. The Falcons answered
the Browns9 177 rushing yards
with 202 of their own, and at one
point Atlanta handed the ball off
14 straight times over two drives
that netted 10 second-half points.
<We9re not creeping up on any-
body. People know we want to run
the football,= Smith told reporters
following that 23-20 win. <When
you can run the ball when they
know you9re going to run it, that
speaks volumes about your guys.=
Only the Chicago Bears are
averaging fewer pass attempts
per game and a greater run-to-
pass ratio than Atlanta. The result
hasn9t always been pretty for the
Falcons, but Smith9s dedication to
the ground game has taken ad-
vantage of quarterback Marcus
Mariota9s skill set and given his
squad a strong identity in a divi-
sion in which other teams have
been searching for consistency.
These Falcons know exactly
who they are. Atlanta is giving up
the fourth-most points per game
(25.6) in the NFL and is dead last
in defending the pass, allowing
an average of 306.9 yards through
the air.
That has made it critical for the
Falcons to be able to stay out of
shootouts and limit opponents9
possessions. Averaging the third-
fewest plays per game, Smith9s
squad appears convinced that a
slow-and-steady approach is its
to the 53-man roster. Safety Javon-
te Moffatt and guard/center Ryan
Neuzil were promoted from the
practice squad.
Patterson is the Falcons9 lead-
ing rusher with 340 yards on
58 carries, and he has three rush-
ing touchdowns. He would pro-
vide a spark if he faces the Char-
gers.
Patterson said Wednesday that
he felt 90 percent healthy.
<At this point in time, nobody is
100 percent; we9re in what,
Week 9?= Patterson said. <Nobody
is going to feel 100 percent. Feeling
at 90 percent; I feel pretty good.=

That9s probably 70, 75 percent of
the league. If you9ve got both,
you9re going to win consistently.
And if you don9t have either,

Determining which franchises
truly have a winning coach and
quarterback is obviously open to
interpretation, and in a league of
constant transition with tanking
no longer prohibited, some
general managers argue that not
enough time and patience are
granted to either position. In my
own estimation 4 feel free to
play along at home 4 only five of
32 teams receive double check
marks, which feels telling.

Asked after the loss to the
Bengals, in which Mariota threw
just 13 passes, whether it was
<tempting= to get away from the
run after falling behind by so
many points, Smith replied:
<Yeah, it was, and that9s what
you9re always trying to balance
because there9s some things we
could do a better job of, and we9ll
continue to evolve. . . . If you try to
get it all back at once, there can be
some severe unintended conse-
quences. You don9t want to put
your defense right back out there
[after] a quick three-and-out.=
In his second season with the
Falcons after two years as the
Tennessee Titans9 offensive coor-
dinator, Smith has overseen a
dramatic reshaping of Atlanta9s
With Patterson out, Caleb
Huntley was promoted to the
53-man roster. Huntley, Tyler
Allgeier and Avery Williams filled
in at running back.
<They did a heck of a job,= Pat-
terson said. <This week if I can9t
go, they are still going to keep
doing what they [are] supposed to
do until I9m back. When I9m back,
they are going to shine. I9m not
coming to step on [anybody9s]

thur Smith] needs me out there, I

Prescott was tearing it up, and
Matthew Stafford was second in
the NFL with 22 passing

Russ is getting cooked, the
Buccaneers and Packers have

baffled why Murray and his

Prescott has missed more games
than he has completed and
Stafford has seven touchdowns
to eight interceptions.
<Some Hall of Fame

[in recent years], some older
quarterbacks might be hitting

quarterback classes might not be

manager suggested, with the
2021 class drawing particular

offense. Every year from 2018
through 2021, the Falcons ranked
between 27th and 31st in rushing
yards per game. This season they
rank fifth. Passing attempts
plummeted from at least 38.6 a
game from 2018 through 2020 to
33.7 last year 4 the final season in
Atlanta for longtime quarterback
Matt Ryan 4 and this year9s mark
is just 22.3.
That might have been expected
given that Smith oversaw a nota-
bly run-heavy attack with the
Titans. But in Tennessee he had
arguably the league9s best back in
Derrick Henry, whereas the offen-
sive talent in Atlanta is more on
the pass-catching side.

THE WASHINGTON POST
don9t know what they9re doing or
what to even look for.=
Of the quarterbacks drafted in
2021, top overall pick Trevor
Lawrence certainly hasn9t looked
generational yet, although being
saddled with inept Urban Meyer
his rookie year didn9t help. Jets
fans are clamoring for second
overall pick Zach Wilson to be
benched, third pick Trey Lance
has barely played for the 49ers,
and the Bears finally got around
to leaning into 11th pick Justin
Fields9s strengths just a few
weeks ago. Mac Jones (15th
overall) lost his job in New
England, at least briefly, to
Bailey Zappe (the 137th pick this
past spring).
As for the first-time head
coaches hired that year: Meyer is
(mercifully) already gone, and
the backward Texans fired David
Culley after one year;
meanwhile, Dan Campbell
(Lions) and Brandon Staley
(Chargers) got much hype, but
their accomplishments have
been scant.
Cronyism and nepotism still
offer a fast track for unworthy
coaching candidates, people
around the league lament. Then
factor in how many of the young
coaches stack their staffs with
similarly inexperienced
assistants, and consider how all
this newness impacts skill
players already having to learn
new systems.
There are more explanations.
We saw an unprecedented
offseason of blockbuster trades
involving both quarterbacks and
wide receivers changing teams.
The preseason is shorter than
ever, and fewer teams are
actually playing their starters for
any meaningful period of time in
those exhibitions. Injuries to key
players have been prevalent 4
with players rightfully indignant
over the lack of mandatory grass
fields 4 and executives grumble
privately that the ever-
expanding slate of international
games doesn9t help the quality of
second rookie at his position in
NFL history to exceed 1,000 re-
ceiving yards, the Falcons used
the eighth pick this year on wide
receiver Drake London. He has
also looked like a promising play-
er, yet both Pitts and London play
complementary roles to a run-
ning back group devoid of mar-
quee names.
Journeyman Damien Williams
was set to be a co-leader of a
committee with Cordarrelle Pat-
terson, but Williams has been
sidelined since he suffered a rib
injury in Week 1. Patterson, a
31-year-old former special teams
ace whom Smith helped become a
standout running back last year,
suffered a knee injury in Week 4
and just returned to practice this
week. In their absence and in
addition to Mariota9s contribu-
tions, the rushing attack has been
mostly composed of Tyler
Allgeier, a fifth-round rookie, and
Caleb Huntley, a 2021 undrafted
free agent who spent all of last
season on the practice squad.
As a result, the Falcons don9t
have anyone in the NFL9s top 32 in
rushing yards heading into Sun-
day9s home game against the Los
Angeles Chargers. Patterson
(340 yards), Allgeier (324), Mario-
ta (280) and Huntley (265) are all
ranked between 33rd and 47th,
however, and return specialist
Avery Williams has chipped in
with 10 carries for 58 yards and a
touchdown.
By comparison, the Falcons9
top pass-catcher, London, has
just 346 yards on 30 receptions.
Wide receiver Olamide Zac-
cheaus is next at 312 on 20 catch-
es, then Pitts at 258 on 21 catches.
Barnes left with an ankle injury
in the fourth quarter of a 23-7 loss
at the Minnesota Vikings. His re-
turn should boost a defense that
will be missing all-pro linebacker
De9Vondre Campbell because of a
knee injury.
Barnes has made 23 career
starts with the Packers. He had
started this season working be-
hind Campbell and rookie Quay
Walker, a first-round pick from
Georgia.
Green Bay has lost four straight
for the first time since 2016 and is
trying to avoid its first five-game
skid since 2008.
. SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 6 , 2022
play across a regular season that
is also longer than ever.
There is an interesting
subplot to consider, however.
Believe it or not, the NFL
running game is thriving like
never before.
The average NFL rush this
season is gaining 4.54 yards (it
was 4.33 last season and 4.28
entering Week 9 a year ago). The
highest figure in NFL history
was 4.42 yards in 2018, while
about 4.0 yards per rush are the
historical norm. Teams aren9t
running much more often 4
42.2 percent of plays have been
rushes in 2022 compared with
41.1 percent at this point last
year 4 but they are doing it
more efficiently in a game that
has incentivized the downfield
pass, even if casual fans haven9t
caught on.
<What are they all b----ing
about?= one grizzled NFL
personnel executive asked when
probed for his thoughts on the
quality of play. <Let me guess:
Scoring is down, and everybody
wants more points? Listen man,
it9s all cyclical, and no one is
talking about it, but running the
ball is coming back.
<You hear a lot about all the
spread formations in college and
how they don9t produce offensive
linemen. But since it9s so small
now [with college teams using so
many three-or-more wide
receiver sets], they aren9t
producing [defensive] tackles,
either. I9m on the road every
week [scouting colleges], and
they aren9t around like they used
to be. The best offenses attack
what you give them, and people
in this league stopped paying for
run-stuffers years ago, and there
aren9t as many good ones
coming out. So why wouldn9t you
attack them in the run game?=
Perhaps we have unlocked the
NFL9s <Moneyball= equation:
YPC (yards per carry) in 2022 =
OBP (on-base percentage) in
2000? Worthy of attention in the
second half, if nothing else.
No one is complaining, at least
not publicly.
<We talk about our brand of
football, and that9s physical foot-
ball,= London told the Athletic
after the loss to the Bucs, in which
he caught four passes for
35 yards. <No matter who is back
there, we9re going to try to run it
down their throat.=
Saying that he and his fellow
backs <can9t do what we do with-
out the guys blocking for us,=
Allgeier has praised the less visi-
ble contributions of <the receiv-
ers working farther down the
field,= as well as of his offensive
line.
The line grades out fifth in run
blocking by Pro Football Focus,
which has guard Chris Lindstrom
eighth among all linemen in that
category and tackle Kaleb Mc-
Gary 24th. Patterson, Huntley
and Allgeier are all among the top
32 running backs in the league in
yards before contact, a statistic
generally considered reflective of
line play.
<We establish our goals during
the week, and moving the ball on
the ground is always one of them,=
left tackle Jake Matthews, the
No. 6 pick in the 2014 draft who
has spent his entire career with
Atlanta, told reporters last
month. <Running the ball in the
NFL is really hard. If one guy9s off,
the whole thing9s off. It takes a lot
of preparation and focus and a
willingness to do the not-so-
flashy hard work. The good thing
about it is that it can wear a
defense down.
<You want to bring it to them,=
he continued. <You want to be the
aggressor.=
l CHARGERS: Los Angeles
placed tight end Donald Parham
Jr. on injured reserve after he rein-
jured his hamstring at practice
during the week.
It is the same hamstring that
Parham injured during training
camp, causing him to miss the first
four games. He has three recep-
tions for 53 yards.
The Chargers filled the roster
spot by signing wide receiver Kee-
lan Doss from the practice squad.
They also activated kicker Camer-
on Dicker and cornerback Kemon
Hall from the practice squad.

UNION 3 (3-0 PKS)
A SSOCIATED P RESS
los angeles 4 A weary Carlos
Vela reluctantly checked out of
MLS Cup in the 97th minute,
giving way to Gareth Bale in a
tense tie game.
Los Angeles FC9s first player
and longtime captain had no idea
this epic final had only begun to
exhaust him and everybody else
involved in the most dramatic
championship game in Major
League Soccer9s 27-year history.
<For the first 10, 15 minutes, it
was a Halloween movie,= Vela
said. <And then we finish with a
Hollywood movie.=
Bale tied the score at 3 on a
dramatic header in the eighth
minute of extra-time stoppage

McCarthy stopped two Philadel-
phia shots in the shootout, and

MANCHESTER CITY 2,
FULHAM 1
A SSOCIATED P RESS
Erling Haaland came off the
bench to send 10-man Man-
chester City to the top of the
English Premier League with a 2-1
home win against Fulham on Sat-
urday.
The striker9s injury-time penal-
ty moved City above Arsenal,
which plays Chelsea on Sunday.
It sparked huge celebrations
inside Etihad Stadium on a day
when City looked set to be frus-
trated by a well-organized Ful-
ham and might lose ground at the
top. . . .
Irving lit a flame, and the NBA just watched the ûre
While the NBA
was engulfed in
an unquenchable
controversy, set by
the league9s
favorite arsonist,
Candace who would prefer
Buckner to watch it all go
down in flames,
the most empowered
professional athletes in the world
sat and watched.
In the days after Brooklyn Nets
guard Kyrie Irving tweeted a link
to a propagandist film heavy with
antisemitic themes, his
outspoken peers said nothing.
While players could have stepped
up and shown how to be allies,
the very kind they expected from
their White coaches and peers in
2020, they did nothing.
Their collective silence,
coupled with their union9s
statement (52 toothless words
from the National Basketball
Players Association), revealed the
worst about empowerment and
exclusivity run amok. And we
have seen this problem through
all walks of life. The thin blue line
that will protect even a thug
simply because he wears a badge.
The politicians who would stick
with their party9s talking points
rather than show basic human
sympathy for violence enacted on
an elderly victim. And now, of
course, the band of brothers who
will fight together against racial
injustice and hate speech as long
as the perpetrator isn9t one of
their own.
Irving is his own molotov
cocktail, infused with unmerited
hubris and crippling ignorance.
And he hurled himself directly at
the league. He created the worst
kind of PR that allowed years of
goodwill to be scorched by
hypocrisy.
The NBA and its players have
done tremendous work by using
the league as a vehicle to
promote issues such as voting in
the Black community and
shining a spotlight on Black
businesses. They spoke out
against the killing of Trayvon
Martin because they looked at his
young Black face and saw their
own sons. They wore <I Can9t
Breathe= shirts because those
haunting last words from a Black
man dying at the hands of police
could have been their own.
But as a so-called <progressive=
league, their advocacy shouldn9t
end with only the causes they can
relate to and the crises they care
about.
On the morning of Oct. 28,
after Irving9s tweet had been
going viral through the night, the
first thing NBA Commissioner
Adam Silver should have done
alty kicks, to claim its first MLS
Cup in spectacular fashion Satur-
day.
The afternoon ended with a
Los Angeles celebration including
confetti and movie stars, capping
this expansion team9s five-year
journey to the pinnacle of MLS.
The final step in that journey was
wilder and longer than anybody
could have expected, but LAFC
was strong enough to finish.
<The game had a little bit of
everything, for sure,= said LAFC9s
Kellyn Acosta, who scored the
first goal. <Goals galore. PKs. It
was a roller coaster. It was crazy. It
was an incredible game. It was a
collective effort. We9re proud of
this moment, but we really earned
it, and we9re excited.=
The two late second-half goals
that forced extra time were soon
followed by the two very latest
goals in league history 4 the first
by Philadelphia9s Jack Elliott in
the 124th minute and the second
by Bale to snatch the title from the
Union9s grasp.
Bale equalized even with LAFC
Goals from Youri Tielemans
and Harvey Barnes in a 2-0 win
over host Everton secured a third
victory in four games for Leices-
ter, which failed to win in its first
seven league matches. . . .
Crysencio Summerville9s
84th-minute goal gave host Leeds
a dramatic 4-3 victory over
Bournemouth. . . .
Also, Pascal Gross hit the late
winner in Brighton9s 3-2 victory at
Wolverhampton, and Brentford
drew at Nottingham Forest, 2-2.
l GERMANY: Eric Maxim
Choupo-Moting scored quick-fire
goals for Bayern Munich in a 3-2
victory at Hertha Berlin, moving
Bayern into first place in the
Bundesliga before previous
league leader Union Berlin visits
Bayer Leverkusen on Sunday.
The Nets9 Kyrie Irving tweeted a link last week to a propagandist film with antisemitic themes.
was call Irving, who was just a
borough away, into his office in
Manhattan. It took a week for
Silver to publicly address the
biggest threat to his league.
Surely, Silver, who is Jewish,
had to have been awake these
past few weeks and noticed the
cancellation of Kanye West. After
West made antisemitic remarks,
corporations raced each other to
be the first to distance
themselves from him. The
response to West by global
brands such as Gap and Adidas
should have been top of mind for
Silver, who as long as he9s in
charge will be tasked with
growing the business of the
game. So what else could have
been more important last week
than breaking the in-case-of-
emergency glass and
extinguishing this fire set by
Irving?
There was once a time when
the NBA, under then-
commissioner David Stern, fined
a player (J.R. Smith) for posting a
photo of a scantily clad woman to
his Twitter account. That
sophomoric decision cost Smith
$25,000, a smidgen for a
millionaire athlete but enough to
send a message that if you9re
going to be a representative for
this global enterprise, there is a
standard to bear.
But Silver dallied. Perhaps he
was waiting on the dysfunctional
Nets to do the right thing, but
they were busy firing coach Steve
Nash, the only adult in the room,
and figuring out a way to spin the
hire of Ime Udoka, whose
leadership skills are shaky at

Maxime Crépeau badly injured a

Canadian Alphonso Davies left

ardize his status for the World

Youssoufa Moukoko fired his
way into contention for a place on

koko became the youngest player

Also, Eintracht Frankfurt came
from behind to beat host Augs-
burg, 2-1; Leipzig won, 3-1, at
Hoffenheim; Wolfsburg won, 3-0,

fellow promoted side Schalke.
l ITALY: Napoli ran its win-
ning streak to nine games in the
best.
Silver should not have waited.
But the players, who run this
league, were all too quiet as well.
It should have been easy for
the NBPA to call Irving by his
name and denounce the
antisemitic movie he promoted
to millions of followers in the
same sentence. Instead, it
released a vanilla statement 4
Sesame Street9s episode on race
went harder than anything the
NBPA offered 4 and the players
remained either silent or not
nearly as forceful as they have
been on other topics.
Kevin Durant, Irving9s friend
and teammate, spoke Friday
about the matter. By his word
choice, however, Durant seemed
more concerned about the team
issuing Irving a suspension of no
less than five games (the proper
steps, albeit days after the
offense). Durant never called out
Irving for his actions.
<I ain9t here to judge nobody or
talk down on nobody for how
they feel, their view or anything,=
Durant said. <I just didn9t like
anything that went on. I feel like
it was all unnecessary. I felt like
we could have just kept playing
basketball and kept quiet as an
organization. I just don9t like
none of it.=
It9s never a good thing when a
follow-up tweet has to be sent to
clarify remarks, and Durant tried
to do just that: <I don9t condone
hate speech or anti-semetism
[sic], I9m about spreading love
always. Our game Unites people
and I wanna make sure that9s at
the forefront.=

The victory moved Napoli eight

pion AC Milan, which was held to

DUSTIN SATLOFF/GETTY IMAGES
On Friday evening, after
Durant and the Nets handed the
Wizards a 128-86 loss at Capital
One Arena, Washington opened
its locker room for reporters. One
by one, we walked closer to the
stall where Deni Avdija was
sitting, shirtless, and looking
down at his phone. Avdija, the
only known Jewish player in the
league, knew why the crowd was
gathering. He agreed to answer
some questions but first wanted
to get presentable and put on
more clothes. When Avdija
couldn9t find a shirt, he asked a
nearby staffer for one. Then
teammate Daniel Gafford, who
overheard the request and was
buttoning up his own shirt right
next door, draped a gray warmup
tee over Avdija9s shoulder.
In that micro moment, Avdija
had someone looking out for his
best interest. An ally. In the days
following Irving9s tweet, where
were those allies?
While Irving played with
matches, players watched the fire
grow. They traded their power
for a distorted code of silence,
making their union and league
look impotent. They may have
wanted to stay out of Irving9s
mess, either for their own self
preservation or to help their peer,
but this desire to protect the
chosen few at all costs will end up
irreparably damaging the brand.
They looked weak by
remaining on the sidelines,
choosing to save their peer9s
reputation rather than to protect
the league. Despite seeing
themselves as thought leaders,
they shut up and dribbled.

Gordon, 39, was charged with
misdemeanor battery causing
bodily harm and battery making

Gordon, who played for four
teams during his NBA career, was
arrested about 3:30 a.m. Friday
when police responded to a report

A 29-year-old man was hit in

and played 11 seasons in the NBA
with Chicago, Detroit, Charlotte

Ahead of his ûrst season leading Maryland, Willard isn9t fazed by the pressure
BY E MILY G IAMBALVO
The banners in Maryland9s bas-
ketball arena are reminders of the
program9s history and potential.
They also are the expectations
hanging over each practice and
every game. This is what new
coach Kevin Willard wanted. But
another critical factor had a ma-
jor role in Willard9s arrival: the
timing. If the Terrapins needed to
hire a basketball coach next year,
Willard probably isn9t here.
As the son of a coach, Willard
had a childhood that featured
thrilling experiences (being a
ballboy for the New York Knicks)
and onerous tasks (repainting a
high school court every summer).
He absorbed knowledge from his
dad about how pieces of a team fit
together 4 and, from his own
history, about how the game can
uproot families, shipping them
from one city to the next. So he
knew how his jump from Seton
Hall to Maryland would affect his
children.
Willard mostly stayed put in
Long Island while his dad, Ralph,
coached at the same Catholic high
school both his parents attended.
As Ralph climbed the coaching
ladder as an assistant at Hofstra,
then at Syracuse and with the
New York Knicks, the family
didn9t move 4 even when that
required a one-bedroom apart-
ment in Upstate New York during
Ralph9s brief stint with the Or-
ange. Willard9s sister was finish-
ing high school at the time, so the
kids stayed in Long Island with
their mom.
Eventually, when Willard9s dad
followed Rick Pitino to Kentucky,
the family headed to a new place.
For Willard, switching schools be-
fore ninth grade made the change
less dramatic because, he said, <I
was going to start something new
anyways.=
They moved again the next
year after Willard9s dad got the
head coaching job at Western
Kentucky. Willard still felt as if he
had time 4 three years 4 to
develop relationships in Bowling

New York City Marathon is the ûnishing kick to D9Amato9s 8awesome9 year
BY C INDY B OREN
Keira D9Amato9s first New York
City Marathon on Sunday will cap
a spectacular year of running, one
in which she rose to the top ranks
of American women and turned
professional with one of the
sport9s more unusual backstories.
<I9m extremely happy with it,=
D9Amato said of a year that began
when she grabbed headlines for
claiming the American women9s
record in the Houston Marathon
in January. She was well known in
the running community but be-
came a national story for setting
the record after a decade off from
running because of injury, along
with the happier arrival of mar-
riage and two children.
<I9m a 38-year-old mom, and I
just had the best running year of
my life. You know, most pros race
a handful of times, maybe five [a
year],= she said. <I think if I make
it to the starting line healthy in
New York, this will be my
14th time racing this year, and for
a 38-year-old mom, that9s pretty
darn awesome.=
D9Amato ascended to the ranks
of awesome by winning in Hous-
ton in 2 hours 19 minutes 12 sec-
onds, toppling a U.S. record that
had stood since 2006. A Realtor in
MARYLAND 4A SOUTH REGION FOOTBALL FIRST ROUND
Defense, big plays carry

With just under five minutes to
play Saturday and Eleanor
Roosevelt clinging to a small lead
but struggling to find an offensive
rhythm, senior Raquane Mat-
thews turned to a couple of his
teammates and said, <I9m going to

Two plays later, Matthews made
good on his proclamation, racing
59 yards into the end zone to seal a
15-6 win over Bowie in a Maryland
4A South Region first-round game
in Greenbelt.
<I feel like when you wake up

ing with newly married Wildcats
assistant Billy Donovan, during
his senior year of high school.
<It all worked out,= Willard
said. But, he added: <I learned my
lessons.=
More than three decades later,
Willard9s two boys, Colin and
Chase, knew of life only with their
dad as Seton Hall9s coach. They
were born in other cities, but
Willard spent 12 years in New
Jersey. His children have just be-
gun ninth and 10th grade. They9re
the same ages now as Willard was
when he moved in back-to-back
years. So the timing felt right.
Anything later might not have
worked.
The family packed up and
moved to Maryland, and Willard
is fully entrenched in all the work
that comes along with this gig. He
hasn9t needed to win a game yet.
He just needed to win over a fan
base. He welcomed former play-
ers back to campus, emphasized
his budding relationship with for-
mer coach Gary Williams and
Richmond, she is also now a
professional runner sponsored by
Nike.
<I think I9ve raced double [the
number of races] of any of my
competitors,= she said. <I9ve won
some really iconic races, I9ve set
course records and I feel like
overall, my body of work, this has
been my best year ever. But it9s
really exciting for me because I
see a lot of room for improve-
ment, and I think 2023 can be
even better.=
After setting the record in
Houston, D9Amato won the Bos-
ton Athletic Association 10K in
June; finished eighth in the
World Athletics Championships
marathon in Eugene, Ore., in
July; broke a 24-year-old course
record to win the USA Track &
Field 20K Championships in New
Haven, Conn., in September; and
finished sixth as the top Ameri-
can (with a time of 2:21:48) in the
Berlin Marathon later that
month.
D9Amato attended high school
in Northern Virginia and was a
four-time all-American at Ameri-
can University. She joined DC

team led by Scott Raczko, who

After a 50-6 loss to Wise last
week in which the Pumas rushed
for more than 200 yards and five
touchdowns, Eleanor Roosevelt
Coach Tom Green challenged his
defense to reset its focus and set
the tone from the very start.
The unit responded by keeping
Bowie off the scoreboard in the
first quarter. Led by an 11-tackle,
two-sack performance from ju-
nior Ethan Walker, the Raiders
held the Bulldogs9 potent rushing
attack to 138 yards for the game.
<In a lot of teams9 minds, the
book on us was that we couldn9t
stop the run,= Green said. <And
lately our effort and will to win
had been inconsistent. So to see
these guys band together like this
and win ugly was awesome.=

Willard9s true tests begin Mon-
day with the opener against Niag-
ara and even more so as the early
season ramps up with a difficult
nonconference slate. There will
be patience, but Willard already
has instilled optimism with the
talented transfers he brought in
to fill out this season9s roster and
the highly rated recruits he land-
ed for the future.
The ability to handle high ex-
pectations was a prerequisite for
this job. Willard9s predecessor,
Mark Turgeon, resigned during
his 11th season. He had built
Maryland into a consistent NCAA
tournament team, and he won a
share of the Big Ten regular sea-
son title in 2020. But disgruntled
fans focused more on how Tur-
geon9s Terps made it to the Sweet

more. Willard has leaned in. He

scoreboard with a pair of crucial
plays from two of its biggest stars.
With under a minute to play in
the half and the Raiders buried
deep in their own territory, Mat-
thews broke three tackles to turn a
10-yard catch into a 59-yard gain.
A few plays later, the Raiders9 lead-
ing rusher, junior Donte Howard,
finished the drive off with a con-
tested 26-yard scoring catch, his
fourth touchdown of the season. A
successful two-point conversion
put Roosevelt up 8-6 going into
halftime.

DCSAA CROSS-COUNTRY CHAMPIONSHIPS
St. John9s and St. Albans
are able to beat the heat
BY S PENCER N USBAUM
The St. John9s girls overcame an
uncharacteristically sticky No-
vember afternoon and several
weakened immune systems Satur-
day afternoon to capture their
fourth DCSAA cross-country title
in five seasons at Kenilworth Park
in Anacostia. In the boys9 race, St.
Albans cruised to its first state
title, with senior Pierre Attiogbe
earning the individual gold.
Senior Caroline Gotzman, who
finished the girls9 5,000-meter
race in third place at 20 minutes
41.3 seconds, was one of several
runners who called the tempera-
ture a major factor and said her
team9s performance spoke to its
resiliency. Her twin sister, Mer-
edith, placed 16th despite dealing
with flu-like symptoms that hit a
handful of other Cadets. Senior
Sophie Mattheus, who recovered
from a midrace fall, finished in
under 22 minutes for the team9s
fifth-best mark.
The Cadets9 50 points edged

there when he left Western Ken-
tucky 4 he felt ready to be fin-
ished with basketball. Then Pi-
tino called. The coach who at-
tended the same high school as
Willard9s dad and then hired
Ralph as a coach for the Knicks,
Kentucky and Louisville needed a
low-paid assistant with the Bos-
ton Celtics. Willard couldn9t turn
it down, beginning on this path
that would have been entirely
different if not for Pitino and, by
extension, his dad.
Willard served only as an assis-
tant under Pitino, with the Celtics
and then at Louisville, before be-
coming a head coach. He sees
himself as a combination of Pitino
and his father. Both recruited
players who were fun to be
around. Willard9s calm coaching
demeanor resembles his dad9s
style, but he can be demanding,
too.
When Willard9s dad visits, he
watches every practice and takes
notes. The two talk about basket-
ball all the way home. After re-
minding his youngest child <to
make his bed 4,000 times grow-
ing up,= Willard9s dad said he
doesn9t tell the 47-year-old what
to do anymore. But there are plen-
ty of suggestions. Willard said his
dad gave him a great press offense
a couple of years ago, and then
there9s an underneath out-of-
bounds play he still uses.
His mom9s role is mostly yelling
and screaming from the stands.
Dorothy knew everything about
her son9s Seton Hall teams, even
scanning message boards. (<I told
her that has to stop,= her husband
said.) To Willard, she9s the ulti-
mate fan. Meanwhile, Ralph said
he gets <unbelievably nervous=
when he watches and sometimes
leaves his seat behind the bench
to walk around the upper level of
the arena. They live in Florida,
but they9re heading to Maryland
for the first couple of games.
Colin and Chase are adjusting
to life in Potomac 4 enjoying
their new school and playing
sports 4 but Willard said it takes
a year to fully settle in. Willard left
marathons, represent the United
States on a global stage, qualify
for the 2024 Olympics in Paris. As
one of two American women with
sub-2:20 times, reclaiming that
American record would be nice,
too.
<I9ll be honest 4 is it fun being
the American record holder?= she
said. <Hell, yeah!=
D9Amato9s record stood until
Oct. 10, when Emily Sisson low-
ered her mark by 43 seconds,
winning the Chicago Marathon in
2:18:29 with D9Amato looking on.
D9Amato joined running royalty
and previous American mara-
thon record holders Joan Benoit
Samuelson and Deena Kastor in
Chicago as a spectator. As much
fun as it was to have the record,
she didn9t mind seeing Sisson
improve on her time. Besides, it
gave her a new goal.
<It wasn9t about me that day,
and I wasn9t going to let someone
else having a good day make it be
a bad day for me,= D9Amato said.
<I wasn9t going to let any sort of
negative emotion creep in be-
cause it wasn9t about me.
<It was always about chasing
the goal. I hit the goal on my day. I
went for it in Berlin, and I did not
hit that goal. And I knew if I didn9t

Georgetown Visitation (67).
<This week was the hardest of
our lives,= Caroline Gotzman said.
<We fought tooth and nail. But this
is the best win I9ve had at St. John9s
because everyone banded togeth-
er and defied the odds.=
Emphasizing the collective ef-
fort, the team donned shirts that
read <We > Me= on the back.
<Cross-country is a microcosm
of life,= Cadets Coach Desmond
Dunham said, calling the group
one of the most cohesive and up-
lifting of his career. <You can pre-
pare all you want, but life is going
to throw you a curveball every
now and then.=
Georgetown Visitation sopho-
more Vivian Kelly (20:12.3) was
the fastest girls9 runner, pulling
ahead of National Cathedral fresh-
man Cecilia Wright (20:33.7) in
the final mile. Kelly said the win
helped shed disappointment from
last week9s fifth-place finish at the
IAC/ISL/MAC championships.
<Everyone was going out a little

behind his life when he moved
from New York, but his kids are
connected to their New Jersey
friends through FaceTime and
video games.
They9re too young for Willard
to guess whether they someday
would want to coach. He thinks
his oldest might be good at it.
Would he try to talk them out of
it? That9s a tricky question. Be-
cause here9s Willard sitting under
those banners. He has earned the
top job at a high-profile basket-
ball school. His sons get to travel
with the team on road trips, just
as Willard once did with his dad.
But the schedule is hectic, and the
pressure can be intense.
Willard carves out one night in
the winter, and after dinner, he
and his wife drink wine and set up
Christmas decorations. Willard
has giant inflatables: Santa,
Frosty and another Santa with
reindeer. When he worked at
Seton Hall, he hung blue and
white lights on a pair of pine trees.
Willard loves it.
<As stupid as it sounds,= he said,
<it9s the most normal thing I get to
do during basketball season.=
With a stretch of difficult oppo-
nents 4 Illinois, Wisconsin, Ten-
nessee and UCLA 4 clustered in
early December, it will be hard to
find a day this year, but he9s confi-
dent he will.
By then, fans will have a better
sense of what this new era of what
Maryland basketball looks like.
Willard feels some nerves but
more excitement as he approach-
es his first game. A couple of
hours Monday night will serve as
his official chance to make a first
impression.
There9s an art to coaching
changes, and when Willard
watches those decisions each off-
season, he can identify the ones
that seem like they will work and
others that feel more like <oil and
vinegar.= You have to go some-
where that fits your style, and
Willard took this job believing it9s
the right one. He9s trying to win
over a fan base hungry for the
fervor of the past. A move like this
can be a risky bet, but he said, <I

<I was really proud of her and just
thinking that I played a role. Now
it9s her journey, the journey of the

really proud about that.=
Besides, <the tide raises all
ships. Me moving that bar for-

ward again,= she said. <I9m going
to have to work even harder now.
I want it back. I9m going to have to

spite dealing with a minor bug.
That, she said, is her <X Factor,=

afternoon. D9Amato is fine with

In the boys9 race, Attiogbe
crossed the line in 15:52.3, well
ahead of runner-up Sebi Hume
(16:43.9), Attiogbe9s sophomore
teammate. Hume crossed holding
up his index finger as if he knew
where his Bulldogs would finish.
He wasn9t wrong. The Bulldogs
(30 points) huddled and hugged
as they saw their program9s name
atop the digital scoreboard for
their first state title.
<Even outside of cross-country
we9re always together, and it trans-
lates when we9re racing,= Attiogbe
said. <That9s what really makes it
special. It9s going to be with us for
the rest of our lives.=
By now, Coach Jim Ehrenhaft
acknowledged, the team knows
what its doing.
<They9ve worked so hard; I just
told them not to do anything dif-
ferent than what they9ve done be-
fore,= Ehrenhaft said.

Astros take
Game 6,
and Baker
gets a title
WORLD SERIES FROM D1
is not a perfect manager. He is not
a perfect person, something he
has brought up many times since
taking over here. The Astros
made mistakes, he says. But so
has every single person that boos
them, and so has he.
Fortunately, baseball does not
reward perfection. It rewards re-
silience. It unearths truth. And
the truth about Baker, three dec-
ades into his managerial career, is
that few people in this game are as
universally respected 4 as con-
stantly, consistently, kind.
As the rest of the industry root-
ed for him, Baker trained himself
not to need a title. He had come to
terms with a legacy that didn9t
include one; he said no one would
make him feel like a failure, not
with 2,093 regular season wins to
his name 4 ninth most all-time,
trailing only Hall of Famers.
But he didn9t take new jobs,
again and again, just to put him-
self in a position to be fired, to
answer questions about every de-
cision, to be told he wasn9t analyt-
ical enough to handle this data-
driven era. No, Baker always had a
feeling that fate played a role in
this, that something bigger was at
work. And for years, he was left to
hope that whatever that some-
thing was, it would lead him here
eventually. When Kyle Tucker
caught the final out Saturday
night, Baker became the oldest
manager to win a World Series
title, at 73.
Baker hadn9t been on the verge
of a title like this in 20 years. The
Astros never got within a win of a
title last season. But on Saturday,
he did the usual pregame hand-
shaking of friends and celebrities,
adding country star George Strait
to his long, long list of famous
acquaintances. He leaned on the
cage during Astros batting prac-
tice, and as usual, several people
made their way over to lean with

much joy across this sport,
because after 96 previous
postseason games 4 not to
mention the 3,884 he managed
in the regular season 4 a
baseball lifer and baseball
ambassador and baseball mind
finally has his title. He knows
what it9s like to feel star-crossed
and flat unlucky. And he knows
what it9s like to face the
questions about what or who or
how or why.
That was Thomson9s territory
Saturday night. This isn9t a
second-guess. But it is a fun,
healthy discussion 4 as long as
you9re not from Philadelphia.
What is a starter9s job these days?
It9s certainly not to shake the
catcher9s hand and thump his
chest at the end of a game. In the
2022 regular season, starting
pitchers averaged 5.20 innings
pitched 4 recording fewer than
16 outs a night. Two decades
earlier, in 2002, that average was
5.93. In 2012, it was 5.88.

him, just to chat.
And he admitted that he was
holding back emotion. At times in
his pregame news conference, he
seemed nervous. At other times,
such as when he described the
support he feels from African
Americans around Houston and
the sport, when he talked about
the responsibility that comes
with his role as the most visible
Black manager in baseball his-
tory, one for which he never
asked.
He talked about souls that
came before him. With each pass-
ing season, he watched friends
and loved ones go, watched
younger men leave the sport or
pass away, watched the game
move into an era in which he
sometimes thought he had no
place. Earlier this postseason,
Baker speculated that he might
have <10 to 12 more years= left,
That might not seem like a
significant drop. It absolutely
affects entire seasons and
individual games. And it also
affects how even the best
pitchers are used. Wheeler, by
any measure, is among the best
pitchers in the National League
4 the runner-up for the Cy
Young Award in 2021, a year in
which he led the league in
innings pitched.
Go to that stat, though. Twenty
years ago, 42 pitchers threw at
least 200 innings 4 the old
standard for being a reliable
starter who regularly went deep
into games. A decade ago, that
number was 31.
This year? Eight pitchers
reached 200 innings. Miami9s
Sandy Alcantara was the only
player who logged more than
205. In 2002, when Randy
Johnson led all of baseball with
260 innings, Alcantara9s total of
2282/3 would have ranked 11th.
Second-place Aaron Nola of the
Phillies, who tossed 205 in 2022,
would have tied for 37th.
2-5 from the No. 4 post, and he and
Todd Pletcher-trained Life Is
Good, at 8-1, separated themselves
from the pack with a blistering
pace and building a nine-length
gap through the far turn.
Sadler9s pupil was moving up at
that point and eventually passed
Life Is Good before the stretch and
quickly built a two-length gap that
steadily grew from there. Olympi-
ad (10-1) soon overtook Life Is
Good with Bob Baffert-trained
Taiba gaining, though both were
far behind the horse who has
earned lofty comparisons to leg-
endary Triple Crown champion
Secretariat.
His remarkable run in the Clas-
sic probably will ratchet up the
praise, and the trainer didn9t shy
away from it.
<He9s just that rare horse that
happens every 20 or 30 years,=

meant on the earth, not merely in
the sport. He has never shied
away from his mortality. But he
never let the World Series dream
die, either.
His son, Darren, was a 3-year-
old batboy the first time he got
this chance, too young to know
what was happening, small
enough for Giants first baseman
J.T. Snow to pluck him out of
harm9s way in one of the more
iconic images of recent baseball
history. Darren was there Satur-
day, too, old enough to share in

enough to know exactly how
much this means.

ery step of the way. They both
pitched into the fifth without al-
lowing a runner to get to third
base, let alone to score. In fact, it
was Valdez who blinked first
when he allowed a no-doubt hom-
er to Kyle Schwarber in the sixth.
Then the Astros put two men on
in the bottom of the inning. Now
it was Rob Thomson who had to
decide how best to hold a lead in a
potentially decisive World Series
game 4 to stick with Wheeler,
who had been dominant, or to go
to his top reliever and cross his
fingers.
And it was Thomson who
would be left wondering for years
to come what might have been
because the first batter Jose Alva-
rado faced was Yordan Alvarez.
Alvarez hit a three-run homer
450 feet to center field. Baker was
nine outs away.
When Alvarez got back to the
time. That9s a real difference.
Plus, if you go further by the
Book of 2022, Alvarez is a
dangerous left-handed hitter,
and Alvarado is left-handed.
Never mind that Alvarez crushes
pitches no matter who throws
them 4 a 1.030 OPS against
right-handers, .998 against
lefties. For those who analyze the
modern game, Thomson has so
much more cover if he goes to
the bullpen than if he sticks to
his starter.
So here was Thomson, walking
toward the mound, pointing his
left hand toward the bullpen.
The refreshing part: Wheeler
stood on the mound and cocked
his hip. Clearly, he wanted more.
When he handed the ball to his
manager, he walked down the
slope and onto the grass and put
his glove over his mouth. What
might he have been muttering?
And when Alvarez absolutely
obliterated Alvarado9s 99-mph,
2-1 fastball, he might have
muttered more. A 1-0 lead
became a 3-1 deficit. The Phillies,
with Houston9s blazing bullpen
at Baker9s disposal, were about
done.
Think about that. For once,
Baker got to go through his
bullpen in cool, calm fashion 4
and won it all. He had already
had a bit of baseball karma come
back to take care of him, when he

dugout, Baker was down at the
end furthest from home plate, a
different spot than normal. Alvar-
ez made his way all the way down,
climbed the steps and shared a
high-five with Baker that might
well have been the most vehe-
ment either man had ever shared
in his life. Legend has it that
Baker invented that move during
his playing days. Baker9s life has
never been short on legend. In
fact, it hadn9t been short on much
of anything 4 save a World Series
win as a manager.
The curse got his promising
Cubs in the 2003 NLCS. His Reds
were never quite complete
enough. The Nationals twice
pushed division series showings
to five games on his watch, but
they fell a hit or a play or a break
short both times.
The second time, in 2017, own-
ership would not work out a con-
tract extension ahead of the play-
offs. After the Nationals lost
Game 5, he waited a few days to
wrap up a deal. It didn9t happen,
so he flew back to California as-
suming it would happen there
instead. He got a phone call, not a
contract. And he found himself
out of a job at 70, torn from the
team he thought would finally get
him the title he desired. Two years
later, he watched one of his ment-
ees, Dave Martinez, lead them to
it instead.
A week or so ago, Nationals
owner Mark Lerner called him to
congratulate him, to wish him
well. This is Baker9s experience in
the sport he loves, treasured until
he isn9t, cast aside at the whims of
a fickle sport. But that fickle sport
gave him one last complicated
chance when the Astros needed a
fresh start. And as fate would
have it, that last chance came
with one of the most successful
organizations in the sport. Had
the Nationals not fired him, had
the scandal never happened . . .
well, Baker learned long ago that
what he wanted wasn9t always
going to be what he got, nor
always what he needed.
But on Saturday, Baker got the
title he wanted, the title everyone
said he needed. The quest that has
consumed most of his later adult
life is now complete. But Baker
has always insisted that if he won
one World Series, he would win
two. After all that, he will be
happy to have a chance to test the
theory.
questionably stuck with starter
Justin Verlander to get the last
out of the fifth inning of Game 5.
That worked.
Here, he had his horses lined
up. To start the seventh, he
removed stellar starter Framber
Valdez 4 six innings, two hits,
only Kyle Schwarber9s solo
homer up against nine strikeouts
4 with Hector Neris. The result:
a 1-2-3 seventh. Then he turned
to stalwart setup man Bryan
Abreu. The result: a 1-2-3 eighth.
And finally, on the cusp of a
career-defining championship,
he went to closer Ryan Pressly.
The result: a World Series title.
The Houston Astros didn9t win
the World Series because Rob
Thomson replaced Zack Wheeler
with Jose Alvarado. That9s not
the view from here, of course,
because the Astros won 106
regular season games, and the
Astros are a juggernaut.
Ask that question in the
taverns and truck stops of the
Delaware Valley, and the answer
might be different. Postseason
baseball is so enjoyable because
of the performances that help
define them, such as those
turned in by Valdez and Alvarez.
But it9s the best among sports
because, sometimes, the
decisions behind the
performances live on 4 in both
perpetuity and infamy.

T
wenty years ago, film-
maker Nina Menkes be-
gan to deliver a lecture
as a member of the film
faculty at the California
Institute of the Arts, exploring a
hypothesis she had long held in-
stinctively but had only recently
begun to flesh out in earnest. Her
talk posited that the way most
mainstream movies are photo-
graphed and edited 4 the basics
of composition, lighting, framing
and camera movement 4 is inher-
ently sexist, and that those funda-
mentals of cinematic style have
real-world consequences, in Hol-
lywood and beyond.
Informed by the groundbreak-
ing work of such theorists as
Judith Butler, bell hooks and Lau-
ra Mulvey 4 who in the 1970s
originated the concept of a <male
gaze= in cinema 4 Menkes kept
refining her talk, loading it with
clips from films considered mas-
terpieces and urging her students

to look deeper than narrative
structure and subject matter to

thesis: Virtually since its incep-
tion, filmmaking has hewed to
unconscious but inviolable <laws=
wherein women are routinely re-
duced to hyper-sexualized ob-
jects, even when they9re the pro-
tagonists of the story.
In 2017, Menkes wrote an essay
for the cinema journal Filmmaker
connecting the aesthetic lan-
guage of film 4 the voyeuristic
habit of cameras panning up and
down female bodies; the predato-
ry metaphor of fragmenting those
bodies into close-ups of breasts,
behinds or other body parts; the
flattening of women9s facial imag-
es into airbrushed, lifeless masks
4 to the behavior of former film
producer Harvey Weinstein and
his fellow executives in real life.
<Within this system,= Menkes
wrote, <men are subjects and
young women are objects for grat-
ification/consumption.=
Menkes9s essay, titled <The Vis-
ual Language of Oppression: Har-
vey Wasn9t Working in a Vacuum,=
became a viral sensation. And it
led to Menkes9s being invited to
film festivals and conferences
around the world to deliver what
by then had become a provocative
one-woman show propelled by
germinal insights, galvanizing
outrage and hundreds of film
clips from some of the most be-
loved films in the canon. In Janu-
ary, Menkes debuted <Brain-
washed: Sex-Camera-Power,= the
documentary version of her lec-
ture, at the Sundance Film Festi-
val. (The film will have a special
screening at Suns Cinema in
Retropolis
EZ EE
Movies
Washington on Nov. 9.)
In early October, Menkes dis-
cussed <Brainwashed= during a
two-hour Zoom session. This in-
terview has been edited for length
and clarity.
Q: Nina, in your introduction
before the Sundance screening of
<Brainwashed= in January, you
said that making this film was an
<act of liberation,= adding that <I
didn9t even know I was in
prison.= You9ve been working
with this material for over 20
years, and yet this was a process
of discovery for you.
A: My early films were
CRITIC9S NOTEBOOK automatically confronting that
so-called male gaze way of
filming intuitively, from very
On-screen early [on]. And later, after three
or four films, I did get introduced
to Judith Butler and Laura
Mulvey and bell hooks and all
these great people who helped
me articulate what I was feeling.
And then I was like, <Okay, I9ve
got to take this to my production
students,= because there9s very
often a split, I find. The
production students never read
film theory, and the film theory
are objects people generally don9t make
movies. So, I was looking for clips
to show my students, and that9s
how the lecture developed, [and
later] how the film developed. So,
you9re talking about a person,

all of this. And yet sitting there
for two years and reviewing 600
film clips and putting them
together one after the other, was
like, <Oh my God.= This poison
has been sitting in my blood. It9s
not that I9m completely free of it,
but I9m more free of it.
Q: One of the things that
<Brainwashed= illustrates is just
how disorienting and even
damaging the act of movie-
watching can be for women,
because we9re constantly asked
to internalize a point of view that
is often leering or mocking or
reductive or violent. Do you
remember the first time you
experienced that disconnect as a
spectator?
A: I grew up without a television.
We had no TV at home. My mom
was against TV. She thought it
was a horrible thing. And
obviously, when I grew up, there
was no internet and no DVD
store down the street. So I wasn9t
exposed to this barrage that
people are now. And, for
whatever reason, I never got
pleasure from those scenes. I was
not the person who got pleasure
and then woke up later and said,
Stories of the past, rediscovered.

THE WASHINGTON POST
<Eew, that9s gross.= When I did
see films, and it wasn9t that often,
I remember seeing films with
[images of ] young, beautiful girls
and I would dis-identify with
them. They bothered me without
[my] having a label for them [as
sexist]. I remember having this
thought that I9d better get
married by the time I9m 25,
because otherwise I9ll be too old.
So thoughts like that I remember
getting directly off the screen.
Q: For me, it was the scene from
<Butch Cassidy and the
Sundance Kid= that you use in
<Brainwashed,= when Robert
Redford9s character is about to
rape Katharine Ross9s character
at gunpoint, until it9s revealed
that they9re already lovers. I was
probably 10 years old when I saw
that movie, and it totally
confused me. I understood that I
was supposed to find it funny
and sexy, but I was also deeply
uncomfortable with the latent
hostility of it.
A: I remember when we found
that example, because the
process of hunting for clips was
quite massive, obviously. And we
wanted to find a sexual assault
kind of scene from an A-list film,
but that didn9t 4 and this is very
on point for our whole discussion
4 that didn9t [trigger] people
who9ve been raped.
Q: It9s also the classic cake-and-
eat-it-too that Hollywood has
engaged with for decades. How
can we get the titillation, but
with a fig leaf?
A: Yeah.
Q: Another idea you explore in
<Brainwashed= is how our
notions of what9s good and
beautiful and of high quality
cinematically have been bound
up with what the men who
control this art form consider
good and beautiful and worth
looking at. For me, as a critic,
that9s been really hard to unpack.
I fall into that trance along with
everybody else.
A: As a film viewer and a
filmmaker, I didn9t get seduced
by those images. But as a person
who had to go on a date with a
man who I knew was looking at
me like that, I couldn9t navigate
it. I remember saying to my
psychoanalyst [while I was]
making the film that it suddenly
occurred to me that when I
would go out on a date, I would
leave myself at home. If you
think about what is allowed for a
heterosexual man in our culture,
they9re allowed to be full-on
human subjects who are also
sexual beings. They don9t turn
into objects when they9re having
. SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 6 , 2022
KINO LORBER
sex; they stay subjects. But the
idea that a woman would just be
a full-on human subject who9s
also sexual without doing that
little swivel to the object
position, I don9t see a lot of films
where we get examples of that.
Q: To me, that9s a function not
just of what9s come to be
accepted as film language, but
the gatekeepers saying, <That9s
what I want to see.= I9ve gotten to
the point where I think all
mainstream cinema is fetish
filmmaking. It9s all just what
those guys want to see and what
turns them on.
A: Are you going to segue into
<Blonde= right now?
Q: Actually, I9m going to loop
back. When you talk about the
split, I think a lot of women feel
that way 4 that we have to leave
our authentic selves behind if we
want to be loved. But there9s also
an element of play. There9s a
pleasure we get from looking
pretty.
A: But why is that
objectification? I think that9s
really important to distinguish.
Let9s say it9s Academy Awards
night and Mr. So and So is going
and he might get an award. Is he
going to take a lot of time and get
his best suit and maybe go have a
massage [and] make sure he gets
a haircut or probably even a
manicure, and look as flawless as
possible? I would say yes. Getting
dressed up for a special occasion
is not objectification. Even
getting dressed up to look nice
for work, that9s not
objectification. Wanting to look
good is a normal human thing,
and men want to look good, too. I
think that what9s wrong is when
looking good is the number one
point and the only point, and the
main determining point for, like
you said, love and
companionship.
Q: One thing you dissect in
<Brainwashed= is something I9ve
long been vexed by, which is the
degree to which women
filmmakers have internalized
these values. Let9s talk about
<Hustlers,= about strippers who
mastermind a credit card theft
scheme. When I saw that movie, I
was in that trance, where I was
just blown away by Jennifer
Lopez and her physicality and
her mastery and her ferocious
screen presence. She9s such a
charismatic performer and
dancer, I didn9t have the
presence of mind to unpack it the
way you do in your movie, so
please walk me through
<Hustlers.=
A: [In] <Hustlers,= we have these
S0129-6x2
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 6 , 2022 . THE WASHINGTON POST EZ EE E3

Movies

women who are supposedly self-
empowering through their own
self-objectification. But if you
look at the camera in <Hustlers,=
most of the shots in the strip club
have the men foregrounded so
that we understand that [Lopez]
is being looked at. So she9s
embodying to-be-looked-at-ness.
Also, this film brings up
something that I have noticed is
a key point for a lot of people,
which is: Is self-objectification
empowering? Studies have
shown that teenage girls and
young women who self-sexualize
or self-objectify have higher
levels of body surveillance and
body shame. It also leads them to
be desensitized to the
victimization of girls and women
in real life, and it translates into
an increased tolerance for sexual
violence and harassment.
Another psychological study
found that the more girls
consume such images, the more
they will suffer from low self-
esteem, depression and eating
disorders. So you have this
incredible image of JLo, but she9s
there as a sexual object. I think
we just have to question why that
has to be the way that women are
empowered.
Q: It also exemplifies that cake-
and-eat-it-too syndrome I talked
about earlier. Now we have this
concept of <agency= that is used
as a narrative dodge, while
leaving dubious sexual politics
intact. I9m thinking of the movie
<Red Rocket,= about a porn actor
grooming a teenage girl, and the
way the filmmaker gets buy-in
from the audience is to have the
girl make the first sexual move.
A: [Film producer] Amy Ziering
calls it reversal of desire. <Lolita,=
<Red Rocket,= there are so many
examples where the young
woman is the aggressor. What
they9re trying to say is that this
object, this underage person, is a
subject when she9s not a subject.
She9s the object of a predator, and
yet they9re trying to make it okay
by spinning it.
Q: Another film that engages
some of these issues but lands
much more ambiguously is Lena
Dunham9s <Sharp Stick.= The
protagonist isn9t a teenager, but
she9s childlike. And she9s on this
mission to explore her sexuality.
A: <Sharp Stick= actually starts
with fragmented close-up body
parts [of actress Taylour Paige],
which I was like, <Really, again?=
However, it does then cut, and
we understand that the point of
view is the sister filming her, so it
a little bit mitigates it. I can say
that on the level of shot design, it
does not reinforce the male gaze,
with the exception of that
opening shot, which I9m really
not sure had to be there, to be
honest. Why do so many films
start with that? <Lost in
Translation,= <Titane,= <Sharp
Stick,= the list is long.
Q: I want to get back to the fig
leaves. In addition to <agency,=
there9s the dodge of
<commenting on.= And this is
where I want to talk about
<Blonde,= Andrew Dominik9s
movie about Marilyn Monroe. To
me, that movie is such a bad-
faith exercise in a filmmaker
doing the thing he9s pretending
to critique.
A: Let9s look at it from the
<Brainwashed= perspective. Let9s
start off with point of view: Is the
film from her point of view?
When we9re talking about shot
design, no, it isn9t. Is she
objectified within the shot
design? Yes, she is. The most
extreme examples are the shots
taken from the interior of her
vagina [during an abortion].
They do it twice, first in black
and white and then in color. It9s
anatomically impossible for that
to be from her point of view. So,
okay, it9s got to be from the
abortionist9s point of view.
Q: I thought it was the cervix9s
point of view, because the
speculum was coming toward
the viewer. But maybe I9m
misremembering it. Actually, I9ve
been trying to block it for weeks.
A: Oh my God. It9s worse than I
thought. Whoa.
Q: This gets into my own
challenge unpacking pleasure. In
<Brainwashed,= you use those
creamy shots of Rita Hayworth in
<The Lady From Shanghai= as
examples of 2D versus 3D
lighting, where men have crags
and shadows and women look
like these magazine covers. And
even watching your film, while
ANN JOHANSSON
you9re critiquing it, I9m thinking,
Nina Menkes made <Brainwashed: Sex-Camera-Power,= a documentary that was preceded by a <Oh, God, she is so beautiful.=
one-woman lecture show inspired by her observations about male-female power dynamics in film. And I have the same experience
David Meyers
watching Marilyn Monroe. So tell
me, where do we put our
pleasure in all of this?
A: Well, to return to something I
said in <Brainwashed,= if you are
a male director and you want to
shoot someone9s derriere, I am
not the sex police. I am not
saying don9t do that. I9m just
pointing out that, unfortunately,
the vast majority of films we see
do that. I don9t think that by
itself there9s something wrong
with seeing a shot of a beautiful
woman. It9s just that it9s part of
this tsunami of images which
have created a situation where
women are the only oppressed
people who are a majority on
planet Earth. We9re 51 percent [of
the population] and we earn less,
we have fewer rights, we can9t
pass the ERA in this country. So
this beauty thing is just loaded
down with all this massive
baggage that is all around it and
on top of it and under it, and it9s
damaging. Does that mean we
can9t have beautiful women in
films? No, that9s not what I9m
saying. I9m saying let9s let
consciousness illuminate and see
what happens.
Q: One film where I think we saw
consciousness being brought to
bear in a transformational way
was <Good Luck to You, Leo
Grande,= with Emma Thompson
and Daryl McCormack. Consent
and humanism are just woven
through that film in a way that
feels hopeful to me.
A: Yeah. One of the incredible
things about <Leo Grande= is
that, basically, the whole movie9s
about sex and having sex and sex
scenes and she9s 60 and she9s a
subject. It9s like, wow. That9s
absolutely revolutionary. The
fact that [ <Leo Grande=] was
made and got a lot of attention is
very hopeful. The fact that
<Nomadland= won an Academy
Award starring a 60-year-old
woman and it9s her perspective 4
whether you like the film or not,
it doesn9t really matter. It9s like,
there was this 60-year-old
woman in a leading role and it
was her vision and feeling about
life. I9m not saying you have to
make a film about a 60-year-old
woman, but just that it exists can
also give young women, when
they go to the movies, the idea
that life isn9t going to end when
they9re 35. Maybe it9s 45 now.

Poignant illustrations of our vulnerable environment
BY M ARK J ENKINS
Exceptional craft and
exquisite detail are among the
qualities that connect the pieces
in McLean Project for the Arts9
current exhibition. Another link
is disclosed by the show9s title,
<Continuum: Artists Teaching
Artists.= All 18 participants are
veteran instructors at area
colleges and universities. Even
the most conceptual ones of their
artworks are beautifully made.
This is exemplified by John
Ruppert9s two-part sculptures,
which initially appear to be sets
of stones but in fact pair a chunk
of rock with a cast-metal piece
that emulates its counterpart9s
rough contours. Ruppert9s stark
duets suggest that finding and
making are twinned processes.
The smallest institution whose
faculty are featured is the
Washington Glass School,
represented by directors Tim
Tate and Erwin Timmers.
Timmers9s contributions include
three hands, elegantly cast in
glass, that protrude from
rectangular panes. One of Tate9s
pieces juggles high-tech and
antique by placing a blue-tinted
video of a blinking eye inside an
ornate white-glass frame.
Also combining traditional
craft with contemporary
technology, Robert Devers9s
stoneware vessels are perforated
with stylized flames through
which seeps red light from
interior LEDs. This evocation of
fire is a warm contrast to Patrick
Craig9s forest-cool painting of
intertwined columns of what
appear to be blue water and
birch-tree bark.
Both Kate Fitzpatrick and
Reni Gower executed large
pattern pieces that, intriguingly,
leave traces on the floor.
Fitzpatrick9s massive black-and-
white painting appears etched,
and hangs above a line of gray
dust. Gower9s large ornamental
design is made of carved white
paper; its back is painted red and
green, hues that reflect on the
wall. The cutout is echoed by a
related but not identical pattern
on the floor, drawn with white
sand like a Tibetan Buddhist
mandala.

Altered Environments Through
Nov. 13 at Pyramid Atlantic Art
Center, 4318 Gallatin St., Hyattsville.
Bill Hill
Light is the essential subject of
Bill Hill9s <Modalities,= but the
abstract painter identifies plenty
of other precedents for his
Gallery 2112 show. While the
influence of such Washington
colorists as Sam Gilliam and
Leon Berkowitz is to be expected,
Hill9s statement also credits
music by composers John Cage
and Giacinto Scelsi and James
Joyce9s <Finnegans Wake.=
Perhaps that novel9s cyclical
structure shaped the local artist9s
approach to laying down
shifting, swirling and near-liquid
hues, which sometimes appear to
be have been splashed onto the
canvas, or to contain ghostly
gestures beneath the surface.
Hill notes that his paintings,
executed with watery oil
pigments and mostly in shades
of blue, orange and pink, begin
with gazes into his own
backyard. Still, their intimations
of landscape are hints at best. A
few include what could be seen
as horizon lines, and several are
fields of mottled color that
suggest sky or water. But all the
pictures are square, which makes
their edges feel arbitrary, not
integral. Hill9s compositions look
excerpts of views that go on and
on, perhaps forever, beyond their
frames.

Mayfield & Trevarrow
Joan Mayfield and Ruth
Trevarrow depict trees after
humans have had their way with
them. The two local artists
paired in the Athenaeum9s
<Woodcuts= take their cues from
stumps and castoff boards,
distilling their subjects to
meandering black lines or
nestled fragments.
Among the inspirations for
Trevarrow9s large black-and-
white prints is an elm that used
to stand near D.C.9s Martin
Luther King Jr. Memorial. The
artist9s <MLK Elm1= is an exact
rendering of the stump9s contour,
executed in a thick black line and
filled with hundreds of

simulated concentric tree rings.
Such pictures are memorials to
bygone organisms, but their
complex forms are alive with
possibility.
Mayfield9s found-wood
collages are made of materials
that have been wrenched even
farther from their natural
origins. Yet the battered, partly
painted slats are often arranged
in ways that evoke their previous
existence as part of a living
organism. One piece deploys
twisting blond-wood uprights
that reach toward a blue
backdrop that evokes sky.
Mayfield doesn't9 merely reuse
wood; she, symbolically at least,
replants it.

questions of spouse9s death?
Dear Amy: My
Ask Amy husband, <Don,=
AMY battled substance
DICKINSON abuse and
addictions, major
depression,
anxiety, and severe sleep apnea.
Don and I also had relationship
issues, much like any other
married couple after 20 years of
marriage.
One day this past April, I
learned that Don had once again
stolen my legally prescribed pain
medication. I became angry with
him, said harsh words, and then I
asked him to pack his belongings
and leave.
Instead, that day, he took his
own life. I called 911, and they
walked me through CPR. In the
end, I could not save him.
This is all still quite fresh to
me. I am often asked, <How did
your husband pass away?= and I
find that an incredibly intrusive
question, even if he hadn9t died
from suicide by gun.
To rein in my emotions and
anger, I9d like your advice on how
best to respond to those
questions 4 whether they9re from
people I9ve never met or people
with whom I do have a
relationship.
If you feel my question and
your answer would be of value to
your readers, I do hope you will
publish it.

<Ted Berrigan,= 1967, by Alex Katz.
CRITIC9S NOTEBOOK
at 95, Alex Katz is
having a moment
BY S EBASTIAN S MEE
IN NEW YORK
t took me years to come around to Alex
I Katz.
I don9t know what my problem was. I
had an inherited idea, I suppose, of what
sorts of things should be taken seriously.
It was like a cupboard, crowded with old
gewgaws and dust-coated knickknacks 4 the
critic9s mind! 4 and, fool that I am, I couldn9t
squeeze Katz into it. If we already have
Matisse (I told myself ) and Warhol, do we
really need Katz? His work was facile,
cartoonish, kitsch.
Thankfully, Katz, who turned 95 this
summer, wasn9t waiting for me or for anyone
else to come around. He had already struck
aesthetic gold in the 1960s with his deadpan,
Pop-inspired yet obstinately painterly por-
traits and his disarming painted cutouts. He
was a commercial success. Better yet, the
people whose opinions he valued most 4
friends who were poets, dancers, filmmakers,
fellow painters 4 adored his work.
Since then, Katz9s portraits, along with his
laconically decorative renderings of trees and
flowers, New York cityscapes and Maine
landscapes, have spent long periods looking
out of tune with the zeitgeist. But what goes
around comes around, and today Katz 4 with
his astute reading of individuals within social
settings, his alternating hot and cool emo-
tional registers, and his savvy use of old-fash-
ioned paint to best modern mass media 4
suddenly looks central to the conversation.
Whether they recognize it or not, today9s
hottest painters 4 Nicole Eisenman, Salman
Toor, Kerry James Marshall, Elizabeth Pey-
ton, to name a few 4 all look like Katz9s
progeny.
That9s partly why the Alex Katz retrospec-
tive at the Guggenheim feels uncannily of the
moment, maybe even predestined. More than
Hilma af Klint, more than Kandinsky, more
than Tino Sehgal or Matthew Barney, this is
the show Frank Lloyd Wright9s airy spiral has
been waiting for all its life.
Katz is efficient 4 and so is this show. You
can be in and out in half an hour. His works
are meant to be seen all at once. They pop off
the walls like old flames emerging from
crowded kitchens at parties: kiss-kiss, how
lovely, what a surprise, see you later. You
stand there, engrossed, dazed. But then you
turn around: The party is carrying on without
you. It9s not that it9s hostile. It has just moved
on. And so must you.
That9s how it is at <Alex Katz: Gathering,=
where each encounter is like a frozen still
from a movie, a close-up charged with
intensity, glamour, perfume. But when you
swivel to take in the glorious, centrifugal
spectacle of the Guggenheim9s interior, the
paintings you passed farther down the ramp
smile back across a gaping void. Snapped out
of the moment, you suddenly register the
existence of other people, other relationships,
a whole city pulsing outside. It9s all just & oh!
Wow.
The beauty of Katz9s painting is worth
emphasizing. What a colorist! What devastat-
ingly succinct brushwork! And what a lovely,
unforced accord with nature he regularly
manages to achieve! Much as he loves bright
hues, his color is sometimes most affecting

ar
disarmingly heartfelt. Celebrations of social
display, they9re about the joys of seeing and
being seen.
I find some of them hilarious. When Katz
treats his wife, Ada, or his friends as
replicable units, as if they were Warhol soup
cans or minimalist boxes, the effect is
inevitably comic. His flat cutout portraits,
painted on both sides, occupy the gallery9s
space like brazen party-crashers, daring you
to question their right to be there. And is
there anything more delightfully preposter-
ous than Katz9s depiction of the members of
Paul Taylor9s avant-garde dance company
striking strenuous poses in brightly colored
leotards?
There9s wit, too, in Katz9s formal decisions.
In recent years, he has worked on an
increasingly vast scale, as he searches for the
most minimal means to convey nature9s
immersive enormities: dark forests, distant
escarpments, moonlight on water, wintry
fields. To paint on the scale of Anselm Kiefer
or Tintoretto and yet to have made barely any
impact on the quantity of paint with which
you began 4 that9s funny.
Katz is serious about what he does, don9t
get me wrong. But in his 90s, he is more and
more like an old sage tossing out Zen koans.
His pictorial enigmas may be profound, or
they may be cheap tricks, borrowed from
cartoonists. It9s really up to you.
For seven decades, Katz has been provid-
ing a visual descant to the work of the New
York School of poets, many of whom were his
friends. He shares with them a love of the
tangy, bittersweet, evanescent qualities of
daily life, a feeling both for New York9s antic
energy and languid summers in New Eng-
land, and an appreciation of the ways in
which banal surface values can coexist with
hidden depths.
I am more accustomed to seeing Katz9s
work in Maine, where he spends about half of
each year, than in New York. (I am forever
indebted to Maine9s art museums 4 Portland,
Bowdoin College, the Farnsworth and, above
all, Colby College Museum of Art, which has a
dedicated Katz wing 4 for slowly turning me
on to Katz9s genius). But when all is said and
done, he is a very New York artist, just as this
is a very New York show. ABOVE: <Gold and Black 2,= 1993.
One of the things that makes it so is that, RIGHT: Installation view of <Alex Katz:

as the mood dictates, arrogantly unim-
pressed. They9re chatty and brisk, but occa-
sionally moody, even gloomy, like Manhattan
in late fall.
It9s possibly just my projection, but be-
neath his bright society portraits and sun-
kissed flowers and landscapes, I sometimes
detect an underground cistern of melancholy.
It9s there in the frozen smile of Ada, his
favorite subject; in the bafflement of Ted
Berrigan; in the hurt and suspicion in the
eyes of the boys Vincent and Tony; and in the
unexplained discomfit of Rudy Burckhardt
on an otherwise golden late afternoon in
August. It9s there, too, in the preoccupation
with office windows at night and slashing
rain.
But my lingering memory of this show is
not of sadness. On the contrary, I left feeling
elated. I wanted more.
He9s 95, I know. He has every right to relax,
to sit back and enjoy the accolades. But that9s
no reason not to ask. So: Please, Mr. Katz.
Would you be willing to paint on for a bit?
Oh, but I forgot. You9re not in the habit of
waiting to be asked.

JOHN COHEN/SMITHSONIAN FOLKWAYS RECORDINGS
Cotten9s signature
song, 8Freight
Train,9 still dazzles
COTTEN FROM E1
Brenda9s rendition 4 with wise-
beyond-her-years vocals and
memorable verses such as <Have
a little secret, I ain9t gonna tell/
I9m going to heaven in a brown
pea shell= 4 has a charm that
time has only enhanced: In 2019,
it was featured in an episode of
the TV series <Big Little Lies.=
Well past age 90, when she
became the oldest woman to win
a Grammy, Cotten enthralled au-
diences with her illimitable mu-
sic and storytelling. And decades
after her death in 1987, her legacy
is alive and well. Her 1950 Martin
guitar is on permanent display at
the National Museum of Ameri-
can History. In 2018 came a
children9s book, <Libba: The Mag-
nificent Musical Life of Elizabeth
Cotten,= by singer-songwriter
Laura Veirs, who performed
<Sugaree= onstage in D.C. that
year with Evans.
Cotten9s latest posthumous
honor comes with her Nov. 5
induction to the Rock & Roll Hall
of Fame. It may come as a sur-
prise that Cotten is the first
guitarist from the Washington
area to be inducted, especially
when you consider that the hall
has yet to welcome D.C. guitar
legends such as Link Wray
(<Rumble= is in the hall9s singles
category, but not Link himself,
who9s been nominated twice),
Danny Gatton and John Fahey,
among others.
Even so, it is well-deserved
recognition for Cotten, who is
being inducted as a recipient of
the Early Influence Award. She is
one of a handful of female musi-
cians in this category, joining an
elite group of eight that includes
jazz icon Billie Holiday, gospel
fireball Sister Rosetta Tharpe and
rockabilly whiz Wanda Jackson.
According to a statement from
the Hall of Fame, Cotten earned
her induction because <her inti-
mate recordings and perform-
ances inspired generations of art-
ists and her technical prowess
and musical inventiveness influ-
enced countless guitar players.=
Few would deny the enduring
influence of Cotten9s signature
song, <Freight Train,= a finger-
picking tour de force from her
debut album that still dazzles
today. Composed when she was
age 11, the song became a folk
standard in the late 1950s and
960s. It exemplifies her guitar
style, known as <Cotten-picking,=
which has a pulsating, syncopat-
ed rhythm akin to the rippling of
a mountain stream. Even today,
it9s one of the first songs novices
learn to play on acoustic guitar,
with Cotten9s version garnering
2.7 million views on You Tube.
In tandem with her singing,
which at times barely hovers
above a soft murmur, Cotten9s
music can have a mesmerizing
effect, as if inviting you to eaves-
drop on an intimate conversation
between voice and guitar. As
often as not, it9s a dialogue touch-
ing on life9s abiding mysteries.
<When I9m dead and I9m in my
grave, no more good times here I
crave,= she sings in <Freight
Train,= inspired by the sounds
she heard at night near her child-
hood home. <Place the stones at
my head and feet, and tell them
all that I9ve gone to sleep.=
The forging of her sui generis
sound was an uphill battle from
the start. Like other Rock Hall-of-
. THE WASHINGTON POST
Famers, from Elvis Presley to
Johnny Rotten, Cotten was a reb-
el from the wrong side of the
tracks who reinvented herself.
She enjoyed telling audiences
that she taught herself to play in
her distinctive left-handed, up-
side-down technique by stealing
private moments on her brother9s
banjo and guitar. She was also
proud to say she9d named herself.
Growing up near Chapel Hill,
N.C., she was known to family as
<Babe= and <Lil9 Sis= until one day
at school her teacher asked what
her name was and she blurted out
<Elizabeth.=
She worked cleaning houses to
buy a $3.75 Stella guitar, and it
became her constant companion.
After her marriage at age 15, she
was told by church elders to stop
performing music because it did
not serve God. Then came the
demands of motherhood, so she
put away her guitar and aban-
doned her musical pursuits for
more than three decades.
By the late 1940s, Cotten had
divorced her husband and was
raising her family in D.C. Her
chance encounter in 1948 at
Lansburgh9s department store 4
when she was working as a clerk
and reunited a lost 10-year-old
Peggy Seeger with her mother,
Ruth, and was hired as a house-
keeper soon thereafter 4 is the
stuff of legend. The Seegers,
headed by musicologist Charles
and composer Ruth, and includ-
ing Peggy9s brother, Mike, and
stepbrother, Pete, were the first
family of American folk music.
The serendipitous encounter was
life-changing.
What is often overlooked,
though, is that Cotten worked
five years in the Seeger home in
tony Chevy Chase before her tal-
ent was discovered, and, even
then, it was discovered by acci-
dent. It speaks volumes about the
racial divide of the era that in a
house filled with music and in-
struments, Cotten did not feel it
was her place to mention her
musical prowess. Even so, she
couldn9t resist returning to her
first love in her spare moments.
<The family guitar was hung
on a wall in the kitchen. I came in
after school one day and found
Libba playing it left-handed, in-
dex finger swinging away doing
the job of the thumb, her thumb
relegated to fingerdom,= wrote
Peggy in her 2017 memoir about
the moment she found Cotten
playing <Freight Train.= <She
dragged songs out of her child-
hood, polished them up and sang
them on Saturdays. Her church in
North Carolina had deemed gui-
tar playing unsuitable for a mar-
ried woman so, a girl bride, Libba
had laid the instrument down by
the riverside. The Lord is fond of
second comings. Libba picked up
the guitar once more in a Chevy
Chase kitchen and she damn well
wasn9t going to lay it down again.=
Mike bought a guitar for <Lib-
ba,= a nickname from the Seeger
family that stuck. In 1957, he
produced her first album, <Negro
Folk Songs and Tunes,= recorded
on a portable tape machine at her
house; it introduced <Freight
Train= to the world. Starting in
1960, he also introduced the 67-
year-old to folk-revival audiences
in concerts at colleges and festi-
vals. Another early booster was a
young John Fahey of Takoma
Park, who often chauffeured Cot-
ton to local picking parties; he

a CD and a framed photo

Cotten9s second album,
<Shake Sugaree,= featured
music inspired by mid-19th-
century Black songster
traditions, urban ragtime
and parlor tunes, and other
popular music of her
childhood in the early
1900s, as well as spirituals,
blues and dance tunes.

particular song.=

recorded an homage, <Libba9s
Rag,= in the late 1950s.
Meanwhile, Peggy took her
five-string banjo to England and
made <Freight Train= a staple of
her live shows as she launched
her own career. It soon became a
favorite in the British folk-music
scene and a radio hit; it even
made it into the repertoire of
Liverpool skiffle band, the Quar-
rymen, sung by a teenage John
Lennon.
Cotten9s second album, <Shake
Sugaree,= was released in 1967
and featured Brenda Evans on
both the title track and a gospel
song, <Jesus Lifted Me.= Most of
the album, produced by Mike
Seeger for Folkways, was record-
ed at the spacious and ornate
Alexander Hall, a castle-like Vic-
torian Gothic building with a
900-seat auditorium famous for
its acoustics, at Princeton Univer-
sity. <I might have been a little
nervous before we started, but
once I got onstage next to her, it
all left me,= says Evans, who was
just a middle-schooler at the
time. <It soothed me whenever
she and I performed together.=
Many critics consider the al-
bum Cotten9s best work, showcas-
ing how she adapted traditional
styles to fit her unschooled, intui-
tive approach to the guitar and
banjo (featured on several songs).
It was her own painstaking, D.I.Y.
distillation of the wellsprings of
American music: from mid-19th-
century Black songster traditions
to urban ragtime and parlor
tunes and other popular music of
her childhood in the early 1900s,
as well as the spirituals and blues
and dance tunes she heard in
rural North Carolina.
In 1968, Cotten went on a tour
of the South with Mike Seeger
and his then-wife, musician Alice
Gerrard. It was a package tour
with a grass-roots mission to
connect with working-class peo-
ple. Along with Cotten, featured
performers included fellow sep-
tuagenarian Dock Boggs, a banjo
legend from the coal fields of
southwest Virginia who called
her <Miss Elizabeth.=
The musicians traveled in a
van together, and Gerrard found
in Cotten an easygoing road com-

A timeless tale of the parent-child bond
LION KING FROM E1
At an Italian restaurant before
the recent performance, we tried
to recall all the shows I9d taken
her to. I think we9re still counting.
Lizzie has a quirky aversion to
sitting on the aisle 4 the critic9s
perch 4 so she9s seen every show
from the orchestra, one seat in.
My job9s special access accrued to
Lizzie9s benefit, too. On days over
the years when I wasn9t review-
ing, we would on occasion get to
go backstage, an opportunity I
grabbed only if I thought it would
bedazzle my daughter. So at a
tender age she shook hands with
the Beast of <Beauty and the
Beast= (thanks, Jeff McCarthy!);
fixed her tweener gaze up at
Harvey Fierstein, decked out as
Edna Turnblad in <Hairspray=;
met, as a teen, the cast of <Next to
Normal= when I was doing an
article about its star, Alice Ripley.
<Next to Normal,= the story of a
woman struggling with mental
illness, set to a score by Tom Kitt
and Brian Yorkey, is Lizzie9s all-
time favorite 4 and the cast al-
bum I would hear wafting out of
her room once upon a time, as she
worked on one of her art projects.
I measure the advance of our
musical-theater adventures in
Playbills, the way arborists count
the rings of sycamore trees: <Av-
enue Q,= <Dear Evan Hansen,=
<Jersey Boys,= <The Little Mer-
maid,= <Wicked,= <Matilda,= <Mov-
in9 Out,= <West Side Story,=
<Spring Awakening,= <Sweeney
Todd,= <Seussical.= Oh, <Cats,= of
course. And triumphs such as
<Hamilton= and boondoggles like
<King Kong.=
Back when Lizzie was 9, I
began playing the score of <Rent=
in the car. She adored it, so the
following year, I took her to a
touring production of Jonathan
Larson9s Pulitzer-winning musi-
cal at the Warner Theatre in
Washington.
<Dad, what9s in the bag?= 10-
year-old Lizzie asked as one of the
characters produced a packet of
white powder. Oy vey, I thought.
Sighing, I replied: <It9s drugs.=
And now, back to the show!
<I learned a lot from 8Rent,9 =
Lizzie recalled over our pre-<Lion
King= pasta. < 8What are drugs?9
8What9s AIDS?9 8What9s a les-
bian?9 =
Did Lizzie teach me, too? Why,
yes, of course. Back in 997, the
same year as <Lion King,= I took
her to a revival of <Annie= on
Broadway that was so desultory
that she refused to return to her
seat after intermission. A critic in
training! (My wife sat with her in
the lobby while I served out the
remainder of my sentence in the
theater.) Her impatience didn9t
condemn the production, but it
did help confirm for me what
wasn9t working. In other words, a

lot.
At the opposite end of the
enchantment spectrum, I
brought a pair of 6-year-olds 4
Lizzie and a school chum 4 to a
Broadway revival of <Peter Pan=
with Cathy Rigby. Watching them
watch, wide-eyed, was a spectacle
on its own. <Their contentment
was unequivocal 4 in a theater,

ing the live show for the first time,
was an 11-year-old French girl,
who told us she lived in Jersey

who were visiting New York from
their town in the Alps.

Brandon A. McCall as Simba,

CRITIC9S NOTEBOOK
This new museum is a world away from D.C. stereotypes
BY P HILIP K ENNICOTT
P
eople from outside of
Washington, especially
journalists, are obsessed
with proximity to the U.S.
Capitol. A crime, no matter how
random, that happens <in the
shadow of the Capitol= is particu-
larly lurid. Any social dysfunction
<within a mile= or <five miles= of
the Capitol, even dysfunction that
is endemic to cities across the
globe, is an egregious sign of
moral collapse.
But perhaps it does matter that
the new Rubell Museum DC, a
splendid, professional and engag-
ing addition to the city9s art scene,
is <less than a mile= from the
People9s House. The 32,000-
square-feet of gallery space has
transformed the former Randall
Junior High School, a historically
Black public school in Southwest
Washington. The 1906 building is
surrounded by a synoptic history
lesson in failed urban design,
which means the Rubell9s art is
seen in an ethical context: Choic-
es matter, and we inhabit a world
that reflects those choices.
Just to the north of the mu-
seum is the Southeast Freeway, a
massive, pollution-spewing gash
to the city fabric that has isolated
the Southwest quadrant from the
city center for decades. Nearby is
the District9s main automobile
inspection station, among several
similar facilities that are land-
hungry eyesores blotting the ur-
ban margins. And what is missing
4 the long-demolished historic
neighborhoods that were erased
by mid-century urban-renewal
schemes 4 is just as salient, and
sad.
The Rubell Museum, which
opened its doors Oct. 29, is a
satellite of art collectors Don and
Mera Rubell9s larger contempo-
rary art space in Miami, founded
in 1993 and expanded over the
years, including in 2019, when it
moved to a new, 100,000-square-
foot exhibit space with a library,
bookstore, restaurant and per-
formance area. The Rubells are
significant players in the contem-
porary art world, renowned not
so much for their riches as for
their judgment, particularly
when it comes to championing
young and rising artists.
The museum9s inaugural exhi-
bition, titled <What9s Going On=
after the 1971 album by Marvin
Gaye (a student at Randall in the
1950s), includes about 200 works
by 50 artists. Among them is
Keith Haring9s 1989 <Untitled
(Against All Odds),= a series of
often macabre drawings inspired
by Gaye9s lyrics. The Haring se-
ries, dedicated to Steve Rubell
(the brother of Don Rubell and
nightclub impresario who died in
. THE WASHINGTON POST
1989), occupies a full gallery, one
of several spaces devoted to a
single installation or work in se-
ries. These more focused rooms
are among the highlights of the
exhibition.
Haring9s aesthetic 4 bold,
clear, political and passionate 4
recurs throughout the museum.
The space, renovated by Beyer
Blinder Belle, includes a bright
and open lobby (an addition to
the front of the building), a large
introductory gallery (formerly
the school9s auditorium), and
smaller but ample galleries
stacked on three floors, with well-
lit corner spaces containing the
larger works and interstitial gal-
leries devoted to smaller materi-
al.
The Rubells9 taste tends to clar-
ity, and the works chosen from
their larger collection (which in-
cludes more than 7,000 pieces)
are generally politically and so-
cially conscious and speak in idi-
oms that are straightforward
though not simple-minded. An
entire gallery is devoted to Hank
Willis Thomas9s <Unbranded= se-
ries, a consistently smart and pro-
vocative dissection of images of
Black people and culture exploit-
ed by the advertising industry.
Another features the sculpture
and assemblage of Josh Kline,
indicting the disposability of cap-
italism, especially its disregard
for labor, which it treats as a
limitless and expendable com-
modity.
Most of the work falls into what
might be called the <vanitas=
mode of contemporary art, mod-
ern analogues to Renaissance
paintings reminding viewers that
death and judgment are inevi-
table and supersede pleasure and
worldly pursuits. The modern
vanitas also skewers the superfi-
cial and worldly, focusing on
darker truths, insidious causes
and structural failures.
The iconic covered wagon,
once a symbol of national expan-
sion and cultural ambition, be-
comes sculpture in Matthew Day
Jackson9s 2005-2006 <Chariot
(The Day After the End of Days),=
repurposed as a weapon of war,
dispossession and genocide. In
Leonard Drew9s <(Untitled #25),=
monumental stacks of cotton are
placed in the center of the room, a
superfluity of raw material, and a
reminder of the raw cruelty of the
slave-driven cotton-and-textile
trade that enriched and immiser-
ated millions of people, according
to their race and privilege.
The tone is serious, but not
dispiriting. Smaller, more self-
contained pieces pursue other
themes, sometimes with humor
and whimsy. Huang Yong Ping9s
ceramic urns are also vanitas

but make a game of the darker
process of seeking beyond out-

American culture, has been un-

The new museum gets almost
all the intangibles of a museum
experience right: the pacing, the
juxtapositions, the flow, the light.
Amid the sobering politics are
moments of radiance and poetry.
The building details 4 including
CHI LAM/RUBELL MUSUEM the preservation of arched brick
doorways 4 were handled with
grace and taste by architect Hany
Hassan. A patch of preserved ter-
razzo floor on a stair landing is a
nice touch, reminding visitors not
just of the building9s prior use, but
also of how thoroughly we have
squandered the investments that
were once made in the public
realm.
Right from the start, the Rubell
Museum DC has found its sub-
stantial niche in the capital area9s
museum ecosystem. It comple-
ments the private Glenstone Mu-
seum in Potomac, Md., by focus-
ing on a wider range of artists, at
varying stages in their careers. It
has a freer hand to be edgy and
provocative than the museums
under the Smithsonian aegis, or
the National Gallery. And it is
local without being provincial,
with free admission for D.C. resi-
dents, and a number of artists
born or working in the city are
among those in its inaugural exhi-
bition. If you voted with the ma-
jority in any recent D.C. election,
RUBELL MUSEUM
you are likely amenable to the
museum9s basic political thrust.
There is real symbolic impor-
tance to filling out that ecosys-
tem. While the Rubell caters to
visitors 4 it wants to offer a
valuable experience 4 it doesn9t
have the usual, imaginary tourist
(easily offended and dependent
on familiar values and cultural
bromides) lurking in the back-
ground of its choices. It gives an
unapologetic and comprehensive
overview of the basic modes and
themes of contemporary art. The
sins, unfairness and indignity of
American culture are surveyed
and to some small degree remedi-
ated in works with both local and
national resonance.
So, we might flip the usual
fetish for proximity to the Capitol.
It is news worth celebrating when
good things happen less than a
mile from the Capitol.

What does 8ûrst class9

even mean anymore?
BY H ANNAH S AMPSON
We think of first class as the
epitome of luxury: a cushy seat
38,000 feet in the air, caviar to
nibble on, Champagne to savor
and even a shower on some
planes. But in the high-low land-
scape of modern airlines, all first-
class sections are not alike 4 and
some don9t have one at all.
American Airlines made head-
lines when it announced that it is
doing away with first class on
long-haul international flights in
favor of a new upgraded business
class. Many of its jets for interna-
tional travel already included
business instead of first-class sec-
tions, but none will offer first after
the updates are complete.
<The first class will not exist . . .
at American Airlines for the sim-
ple reason that our customers
aren9t buying it,= Vasu Raja, the
airline9s chief commercial officer,
said during an earnings call on
Oct. 20.
<Frankly, by removing it, we can
go provide more business-class
seats, which is what our customers
most want [or are] most willing to
pay for.=
Competitors United and Delta
got rid of international first class
long before American made its
move.
So what9s an air traveler with
first-class aspirations to do? There
are a few options.
Don9t expect peak luxury
on domestic flights
Major U.S. airlines, including
American, United, Delta and Alas-
ka, still offer first class on domes-
tic flights 4 but don9t expect a seat
in the lap of luxury.
It9s <basically un-coach,= said
travel analyst Henry Harteveldt,
president of Atmosphere Re-
search Group. <You are not in the
economy cabin.=
Stephen Au, chief points strat-
egist at Upgraded Points, a site for
information about points travel
and credit card rewards, said seats
are typically wider with more leg-
room, travelers get some improved
service and the menu is probably <a
little bit better= than in coach.
One big perk, he said, is that
domestic first-class travelers like
that they can leave the plane first.
No need to linger in this top-of-
the-line experience.
U.S. airlines talk up the <room
to stretch out,= <thoughtful stor-
age spaces,= faster check-in and
security, priority baggage service,
free alcohol and food choices, de-
pending on the length of a flight.
Even in first class, travelers gener-
ally have to pay for WiFi.
The cost, Au said, can be more
than double the coach fare. A
check on different airlines and
routes in January shows the differ-
ence: A first-class ticket for a
round trip between Dulles Inter-
national and Houston on United is
priced at $887, compared with
$320 for the cheapest restricted
fare and $389 for economy. On
Delta, first class from Atlanta to
Chicago O9Hare is $688, com-
pared with $228 for basic econo-
my and $288 for the main cabin.
American has a $577 round-trip
ticket for the main cabin between
Charlotte and Dallas-Fort Worth,
which spikes to $1,075 for first
class.
Harteveldt called the option
<spartan= and <borderline utilitar-
ian= compared with what it was
decades ago.
<Most airlines don9t even serve
meals on flights of less than 900
miles,= he said. <They have a bas-
ket of snacks they offer and that9s
about it.=
Airlines are betting big
on business class
As American noted, U.S. air-
lines have been investing more in
business class, particularly for
long-haul international flights
and premium cross-country
routes. The airline says its upcom-
ing <Flagship Suite= seat will in-
clude <a privacy door, a chaise
lounge seating option and more
personal storage space.=
Business-class sections have
more seats than first-class ones, so
the experience is not as exclusive.
But they also largely include high-
end lounge access where avail-
able, lie-flat seats, priority board-
ing, at least some free checked
baggage, high-end amenity kits
and more elevated meals.
They have something else going
for them: a lower price that ex-
perts say is more easily submitted
on an expense account. Many
companies are willing to pay for
employees to fly in business class
when they might not cover first
class. An American Airlines
round-trip flight from New York
City to London in January is
$8,422 for its current first-class
offering, but $7,222 for business
class.
<The difference between busi-
ness class and economy is like an
entire world apart,= said Au, own-
er and founder of AuPACS, a
points and travel membership
service. <One allows you to be pro-
ductive and get some sleep on the
plane; the other is a crappy experi-
ence. . . . It is much more difficult
to justify the jump from business
class to first class.=

U.S. flights need more consumer protections. Let Europe9s serve as inspiration.
After this
summer9s airline
customer service
meltdown,
consumer
advocates and
The policy experts
Navigator have seriously
CHRISTOPHER discussed
ELLIOTT adopting
European-style
consumer
protection laws in the United
States.
<If the air travel miseries
during the summer of 2022 have
taught us anything, it9s that
passengers flying in the United
States are woefully unprotected
against the callous disregard by
the airline industry,= said
William McGee, a senior fellow
for aviation at the American
Economic Liberties Project, a
nonprofit that advocates for
stronger antitrust laws.
This year9s chaos may be
unprecedented. According to the
Transportation Department, air
carriers canceled 3.2 percent of
their domestic flights in the first
six months of the year, up from
2.4 percent in the first half of
2019. They delayed about one-
quarter of flights.
It has gotten so bad that DOT
has proposed new rules to
expand some consumer rights.
The changes would set a
standard for how long a flight
could be delayed without
triggering a requirement for a
refund. They would also make
airlines provide credits with no
expiration dates to passengers
who don9t fly because of illness.
But the U.S. proposals don9t go
as far as the European Union did
when it passed its consumer
protections, called EC 261, in
2004. McGee says European-
style rules would offer a
powerful incentive to do better.
According to EC 261, airlines
compensate passengers when
flights are overbooked or when
there9s a cancellation or delay.
The type of compensation varies
based on the circumstance and
the distance traveled. Bottom
line: If your flight is delayed or
canceled, you9ll probably get a
payment.
<They provide simple,
understandable, uniform and
consistent protections for all
travelers when they face flight
delays, cancellations,
involuntary bumping and
mishandled baggage,= he says.
Not so in the United States.
Airlines are not legally required
to compensate passengers for a
delay or cancellation (although
some have committed to it, as
seen in the DOT9s new
dashboard). They are required to
ISTOCK/WASHINGTON POST ILLUSTRATION
refund your flight if they cancel
it, and they may offer a hotel
room or meal voucher when
there9s a mechanical delay.
Experts say relief could come
next year when Congress
reauthorizes the Federal
Aviation Administration9s (FAA)
funding. Typically, legislators
attach new consumer legislation
to the FAA Reauthorization Act,
and a move to adopt European-
style regulations might happen
then.
So what might a European-
style airline consumer protection
law look like if implemented in
the United States? Here9s how
legislation like EC 261 might
translate to America, according
to advocates:
If your airline cancels a
shorter flight (less than 1,000
miles), the company might have
to compensate you with $250
and cover your hotel and meal
expenses.
For most cancellations or
delays within the contiguous
United States, a longer delay
would get you a $400 payment.
If your airline delays or
cancels a longer flight 4 say, Los
Angeles to Boston 4 by more
than four hours, you would
receive a $600 payment.
Keep in mind that European
consumer laws aren9t perfect.
This spring, when British
Airways delayed Regina Suitt9s
flight from London to Budapest
by nine hours, the airline
promised to compensate her
under the U.K. consumer
regulation, which is similar to
EC 261.
<I received an email from
British Airways saying I would
be compensated 600 euros each
for my husband and me,= says
Suitt, a retired college
administrator from Tucson.
But weeks of waiting turned
into months, and after a while,
British Airways stopped
responding to her emails.
That9s one of the weaknesses
of the current European rule:
There9s no specified timeline for
compensating customers.
The payments can take
months, and sometimes years, to
process. (I contacted British
Airways to ask about Suitt9s case.
It said the payment was delayed
<due to incorrect bank routing
numbers= and eventually sent
her payment.)
<I would love to see these
protections extended in the U.S.,=
says Mariah Arianna, a wedding
photographer who frequently
travels between the United
States and Europe. <But I have
little faith it would work.=
Arianna has seen too many
European carriers delay or
sidestep their requirements
under EC 261. She believes that if
such a law were to pass in the
United States, airlines would
find a way around it.
EC 261 does seem to motivate
airlines to perform better. A
recent study from the College of
Europe found that it was
associated with a 5 percent
improvement in airline on-time
performance. And the cost to
passengers is low: The regulation
raises ticket prices by about $1.
<EC 261 has proven successful
in the E.U. in terms of improving
the quality of air service,= says
Tomasz Pawliszyn, CEO of
AirHelp, a service that, for a fee,
helps airline passengers receive
refunds. He says the $1-per-
passenger cost pales compared
with the cost of delays. Flight
disruption costs airlines
$8.3 billion per year and
passengers $16.7 billion,
according to a study sponsored
by the FAA through its National
Center of Excellence for Aviation
Operations Research.
Even with strong consumer
protections, there9s no substitute
for persistence in the fight for
your consumer rights.
When Ann Johnson9s plane
was delayed on a British Airways
flight from London to D.C. this
summer, she asked for
compensation under EC 261. No
can do, said British Airways. It
claimed an <extraordinary
circumstance= caused the delay
4 specifically, air traffic 4 which
meant it was off the hook.
<I politely and patiently
persisted,= says Johnson, a
retired teacher from Falls
Church. <Finally, the airline
admitted I was correct, and the
money, about 600 euros, plus
reimbursement for refreshments
and taxis, is heading now to my
bank account.=
Truth is, the odds of a
regulation like EC 261 being
adopted in the United States are
low at the moment, according to
observers. But if the upcoming
holiday travel season is as
difficult as expected, it could
light a fire under the next
Congress to strengthen
protections for passengers.

2. Jesuítas 3. Pastel de Tentúgal

Many Portuguese sweets were born in
convents and monasteries; local nuns
and monks mastered the art of pastry
dating back to the 15th century. <But
there are many untruths about them,
since few have their origin documented,=
Nogueiro Gomes warns.
Although its name seems to have a
religious heritage, and its covering re-
sembles the garments worn by Jesuit
monks, Jesuíta (Jesuit) was brought to
Portugal by a Spanish pastry chef hired to
work at an ordinary shop: Pastelaria
Moura in Santo Tirso, north of Porto.
For more than 140 years, the triangle-
shaped puff pastry with meringue frost-
ing has been prepared following the
traditional recipe 4 although the de-
mand has grown exponentially in the
past few years.
<We sell 40,000 to 50,000 Jesuítas a
month,= says Alda Moura, the third gen-
eration of his family to run the business.
Few people, however, know that there
is a secret to eating Jesuítas. Moura says
it is necessary to open one in half (with
your hands or the help of a knife) and to
turn it inside out, so the glaze from the
frosting becomes the filling.

4. Pão-de-ló 5. Bolo de bolacha

Not just a single recipe, pão-de-ló
(sponge cake) is more like a <family= of
cakes that has spread across Portugal at
least as far back as the 1700s, gaining
different characteristics in each location.
In general, they are similar in their
airy, spongy texture, in which the
amount of flour 4 combined with only
two other ingredients, sugar and egg
yolks 4 is so restrained that it only
serves as a thickener, so the dough can at
least be baked.
<There are versions in which the
amount of flour is 10 times smaller than
that of sugar, which makes the dough
very light,= Nogueiro Gomes says.
In the case of some variations, such as
the pão-de-ló de Ovar or pão-de-ló de
Alfeizerão, the touch of flour is so little
that the dough doesn9t fully bake in the
middle, creating a velvety cream to eat
with a spoon.
Although the pão-de-ló is traditionally
a recipe for special occasions, such as
Easter and Christmas, it is now con-
sumed all year. Thanks to its lightness
and versatility, it can accompany fruit,
marmalades or whipped cream. Even if it
is quite popular, note that most bakeries
only sell it to order. Some also take orders
a day in advance.

On Nov. 19, the Transportation
Security Administration will turn

full-size alcoholic beverage.
The Department of Homeland
Security agency was established
in response to the Sept. 11 terrorist
attacks and subsequent threats to
air travelers9 safety, such as the
foiled shoe bomber in 2001 and
the 2006 attempt to detonate liq-
uid explosives hidden in soda bot-
tles on flights from England to
North America. Many of the safety
measures introduced back then
are still with us now, such as the
3-1-1 liquids rule.
<I don9t think anyone is saying
that the way we did things [is] the
way we will do things,= said J. Matt
Gilkeson, director of TSA9s Inno-
vation Task Force, which tests
new security technologies. <We
want to be beyond where we were
20 years ago.=
With TSA9s birthday approach-
ing, we checked in with the agen-
cy to learn about the latest secu-
rity developments and what the
future might hold for travelers
and their toiletries.

If you are one of the approxi-
mately 25 million members of
TSA PreCheck, you can skip this
section. As you well know, trusted
travelers can leave their electron-
ics and quart-size pouch of Lilli-
putian liquids, gels, pastes and
creams inside their carry-ons at
security checkpoints. The rest of
you: Good news is afoot, if not
already underfoot.
Since 2019, TSA has been ac-
quiring and deploying Computed
Tomography (CT) X-ray systems,
the same technology that hospi-
tals use for patients and TSA em-
ploys on checked bags. The agen-
cy initially purchased 300 CT
scanners and plans to expand its
inventory by more than 1,230 ma-
chines. Airports have been install-
ing the technology at a steady
pace. (Note: The nation9s 430 fed-
eralized airports don9t incorpo-
rate new technologies simulta-
neously because of budget and
staffing limitations, so what you
experience at one airport might
not be the same at another.)

The three-dimensional ma-

and comprehensive picture of a

two-dimensional models. In addi-
tion, TSA officers can electroni-
cally poke around the luggage9s
interior, which will reduce the
frequency of manual bag checks.
<It9s like a CAT scan machine,=
said Scott T. Johnson, TSA9s feder-
al security director at Dulles. <You

which transport the items in a
tidy and orderly fashion, like wid-

technology, which helps the offi-
cers keep track of the status of the
items in the bins.

After the bins exit the scanner,
they are sent on one of two routes:

other side or to an area where an
officer will conduct additional
screening. The empty bins, mean-
while, will return to their starting
point, eliminating shortages of
containers at the entry point and
pileups at the finish line.
About 100 airports have the
machines, including several inter-
national facilities, such as Harts-
field-Jackson Atlanta, Baltimore-
Washington, Chicago O9Hare, Mi-
ami and Los Angeles. An agency
spokesman said the equipment
will become as ubiquitous as the
X-ray machine, unless (or until)
newer technology supplants it.
Because not every checkpoint
or lane will be furnished with a CT
scanner, look for the signage or
listen to the officer9s instructions.

Liquids over 3.4 ounces?

Sadly, we are going to be stuck
with mini-toiletries and tempo-
rary caffeine withdrawal for the
near future, if not longer. The
technology is not advanced
enough to quickly determine
whether a large container of
shampoo or a travel mug brim-
ming with coffee contains explo-
sive material.
Passengers with exceptions,
such as people traveling with in-
fants, nursing parents or travelers
with medical needs, can carry on
liquids exceeding 3.4 ounces.
However, TSA requires additional
screening to ensure the safety of
these liquids. Travelers in this
group should notify security of
their medically necessary liquids.
The officer will place the liquid

container in an explosive detec-
tion device that resembles an
Easy-Bake oven. If the light turns
green, the passenger 4 and the
liquid 4 are free to proceed. If a
red light flashes, the officer will
hold a test strip over the bottle
and give it a little squeeze. If the
vapors do not cause a change in
color, the item is deemed safe. A
different hue means that the liq-
uid is unsafe and cannot advance
through the checkpoint. The pas-
senger has the choice of sending it
in their checked luggage or sur-
rendering it.
The procedure takes several
minutes, a delay that may feel
negligible for the individual trav-
eler but interminable to everyone
else in line, waiting for their turn.
<It9s not feasible to screen over-
sized liquid for everyone,= Gil-
keson said. <We need to speed up
the time.=
You9ll take off your coat,
but maybe not your shoes
The season is approaching
when PreCheck members must
follow one of the rules that applies
to standard passengers year-
round: removing their heavy out-
erwear.
<The machine can9t penetrate
through your coat to see the re-
flection of your skin,= Gilkeson
said. <It doesn9t know your jacket
is a jacket.=
As for footwear, the wide range
of shoe materials is a boon for
fashionistas but a bust for scan-
ning machines. <There are so
many different types of shoes, we
want to lower the false alarm
rate,= he said, adding: <You have to
know your shoes. Do they have
metal?=
To accommodate the diversity
of shoes, the agency has launched
a pilot program testing machines
that inspect the clothing item
from the ground up. Basically, you
are stepping on the scanner. One
way to avoid removing your
shoes: if a TSA bomb-sniffing dog
inspects you in line and moves on.
An uninterested whiff means you
have passed the test and can leave
your shoes on.
More sensitive pat-downs
Gilkeson admitted that no one
enjoys a pat-down.
<We want to get out of the
business of touching people,= he
said.
TSA has put a priority on creat-
ing a more hospitable environ-
ment at security checkpoints, es-
pecially for transgender travelers.
If a pat-down is required, the

agency will no longer assign a
male or female officer based on
appearance of the traveler, which
can lead to an uncomfortable
public conversation about gender
identity. Instead, the officers will
press a single button (they previ-
ously pushed a male or female
button) and the traveler can
choose the sex of the officer that
they prefer. TSA announced the
program in March and will begin
the software upgrades to the Lei-
dos Advanced Imaging Technol-
ogy by the end of the year, aiming
to complete the update by next
fall.
Also on the sensitivity docket:
hair pats. Gilkeson said TSA is
exploring ways to phase out the
controversial procedure, which
could upset travelers whose hair-
styles are associated with a cultur-
al practice or religious belief.
Expect simplified
identification
TSA is chugging down the road
to self-security, a trend that will
give passengers more responsibil-
ities and autonomy, similar to
check-in and baggage tagging.
<Security is becoming incre-
mentally more automated,= Gil-
keson said.
Passengers who fly out of air-
ports with credential authentica-
tion technology units do not have
to present their boarding passes
to an officer. Official forms of
identification, such a driver9s li-
cense or passport, will suffice. The
system is in place at about 1,300
travel document checker podi-
ums at airports nationwide.
In the next level of DIY security,
travelers will scan their IDs them-
selves, a trend that dovetails with
the contactless movement born
during the pandemic. The identi-
fication synchronizes with the air-
line booking information and in-
forms the officer that the bearer of
the ID is a ticketed passenger and
is eligible to proceed through se-
curity. ID-checking of the future
could also entail a camera that
snaps a photo of the passenger
and matches the image of their
face with their ID.
<The machine is looking for
bone structure,= Gilkeson said.
The agency is testing the tech-
nology in PreCheck lanes at air-
ports in Baltimore, Atlanta and
Phoenix, as well as DCA. <People
think it9s a hand sanitizer,= he said
of the equipment that does resem-
ble a dispenser.
The long-term goal is to estab-
lish e-gates that allow passengers
to pass through security as quick-
ly and painlessly as swiping their
card at a Metro station.
Of course, not all of TSA9s tech-
nologies succeed. The puffer ma-
chine, which blew air at passen-
gers like small sneezes, was aban-
doned, as was the hologram that
provided security checkpoint in-
formation and directions at three
New York and New Jersey air-
ports. The holograms failed be-
cause passengers were too rushed
or distracted to stop and listen to
a talking light fixture.

Holiday prices are taking off 4 but these tips can help you save money
BY J AMES B IKALES
AND N ATALIE B . C OMPTON
After blazing-high prices and
extraordinary levels of disruption
failed to keep pandemic-weary
travelers at home this summer,
you should expect a similarly cha-
otic 4 and expensive 4 holiday
travel season, industry analysts
said.
The same factors that drove up
prices this summer remain in
play: inflation, gas prices, labor
shortages and surging demand.
The coronavirus, too, remains a
persistent threat.
<Prices are up considerably
across the board,= said Brett
Keller, CEO of Priceline. Domestic
round-trip airfare is 35 percent
higher than last year, hotel prices
are up by 11 percent, and rental
car prices are roughly flat, but
demand is high for all aspects of
travel, he said.
<If you haven9t booked your
holiday flights, you really need to
start pulling the trigger, because
the longer you wait, they are
going to max out in terms of seat
capacity, and so you may not find
a seat,= Keller said. <And two, the
prices are just going to keep going
up from here.=
Hayley Berg, lead economist at
the travel-booking app Hopper,
said the most important factor to
saving money on holiday flights is
to lock in a fare now, either by
booking or using a tool such as
Hopper9s <Price Freeze= to hold
the price for a fee.
Thanksgiving prices are in-
creasing 5 percent per week, and
in early November, they will start
increasing by $10 or $15 per day,
Berg said. At the last minute, they
will shoot up $50 per day.
Here9s how much different
parts of your Thanksgiving and
Christmas trips will cost, and how
the experts recommend you save
money this holiday season.
How to find cheap flights
for Thanksgiving
Airlines are operating with
about 96 percent of the capacity
they had in 2019, but demand for
flights around the holidays is ex-
pected to be higher than three
years ago, Berg said.
<That demand is going to start
to outstrip the amount of supply
airlines have available,= Berg said.
<That is going to drive up prices
significantly the closer we get to
both holidays.=
An average domestic round-
trip flight during Thanksgiving
week will cost $468, up 48 per-

tip after your next Airbnb or
Vrbo stay.
Although gratuity is not
required, experts were mixed on
whether you should leave some
cash behind.
<I tip housekeeping in a hotel,
but I don9t tip in an Airbnb,
because I know I9m paying a
cleaning fee,= says Ben Pundole,
founder of A Hotel Life, who has
worked in the hospitality
industry for the past 30 years.
cent from 2021 and 30 percent
from pre-pandemic, according to
Kayak.
To save money and avoid
crowds, begin your trip on Mon-
day of Thanksgiving week. Aver-
age ticket prices departing Mon-
day are 30 percent lower than the
Saturday before and nearly
15 percent lower than Wednesday,
the busiest travel days, according
to Expedia.
For the return leg, consider
going home on Thanksgiving Day
for the cheapest fares. If that9s not
possible, return on Friday or wait
until the following Monday.
Those two days will have fares up
to 10 percent cheaper than Sun-
day, according to Expedia.
Busiest airports
on Thanksgiving
According to Hopper9s Thanks-
giving travel outlook, the top-
booked domestic destinations for
the holiday are Orlando, Chicago
and Atlanta, and the top-booked
international cities are San Juan,
Puerto Rico; Cancún, Mexico; and
Mexico City.
U.S. airlines have sold more
than 25 million seats for Thanks-
giving week alone, Hopper says,
meaning you should expect air-
ports to be crowded. Hartsfield-
Jackson Atlanta International,
Dallas Fort-Worth International
and Denver International are pro-
jected to be the busiest airports,
especially in the mornings.
Airlines and airports have re-
solved some of the factors that led
to widespread delays and cancel-
lations this summer, but you
should still prepare for some dis-
ruption. In particular, Hopper
predicts that the worst airports
for delays and cancellations will
be Newark Liberty International
Airport, Dallas Love Field and
Miami International, based on
disruption rates last Thanksgiv-
ing and this summer.
Hopper recommends taking
the first flight out in the day to
reduce your chance of delays, and
arriving at the airport early in
anticipation of crowds.
How to find cheap flights
for Christmas
It will be similarly important to
find the sweet spot to fly for
Christmas, when a domestic
round-trip flight will average
$574, according to Kayak. That9s
52 percent higher than 2021 and
50 percent higher than 2019.
Expedia recommends depart-
ing on the Monday or Tuesday of
the week before Christmas, which
Bonnie Tsai, founder and
director of Beyond Etiquette,
also always recommends tipping
housekeepers at least $2 to $5
per day at a hotel (unless they
specifically request you don9t).
They9re often providing services
for you throughout your stay,
and they9re usually <the hardest-
working staff in the hotel while
being the least recognized,= she
said.
However, there9s no way of
falls on a Sunday this year. The
most expensive days to fly are
Saturday, Dec. 17, and Thursday,
Dec. 22, and Thursday will see the
most crowds, according to Expe-
dia flight data. Christmas Eve and
Christmas Day will have the
cheapest fares.

How to find cheap holiday
flights to Europe
If you9re looking for a hop
across the pond this holiday sea-
son, expect to pay significantly
more for your flight than the past
two years. Airfare to Europe for
Thanksgiving is averaging $586
round trip, 12 percent higher than
2021 and 4 percent higher than
2019, according to Hopper.
Christmas flight prices to Eu-
rope are up 30 percent from last
year and 7 percent from 2019,
with an average round trip com-
ing in at $984. This year9s fares
remain lower than 2018, however,
when Christmas flights to Europe
were averaging more than $1,000
thanks to high demand, accord-
ing to Hopper.
If you want to save money on
holiday flights to Europe, look at
cities other than London, Paris,
Milan and Rome, which Hopper
says are seeing the highest search
interest for the holidays this year.
How to find a cheap rental car
Car rentals for Thanksgiving
are averaging $60 per day, with
travelers reserving a car for an
average of five days, according to
Hopper. Christmas prices are
slightly higher, at $65 per day,
with the average rental lasting
seven days.

knowing whether the cash you
leave behind at a rental is going
to the host or a housekeeper.
Therefore, <it9s not necessary,=
she told me, <because the hosts
set their own rates, and Airbnb9s
platform provides the option for
hosts whether or not they want
to charge a cleaning fee on top
of their nightly rate.=
Those cleaning fees already
enrage many travelers, even
though it9s set by the host.
Priceline estimates the average
prices at slightly higher, at $84
per day. That figure would be 1
percent lower than 2021, when
rental car shortages skyrocketed
prices, but still 62 percent higher
than 2019, according to Priceline.
Searches on Hotels.com for
lodging with free parking are up
43 percent this year, an indicator
that travelers are considering
road trips, according to Expedia,
which owns the hotel booking
site. Expedia recommends book-
ing your rental car now and tak-
ing advantage of options with free
cancellation or the option to pay
upon pickup.
To find a better rate, consider
looking at off-airport rental car
locations, which tend to offer bet-
ter prices, according to Expedia.
You should also look to pick up at
locations where many people are
dropping off their rentals, be-
cause a higher supply can mean
deals for travelers.
How to find cheap hotels
Hotel prices for Thanksgiving
are up 14 percent from 2021, with
the average room coming in at
$173 a night, according to Hopper.
It recommends checking in to
your hotel by Tuesday of Thanks-
giving week if you9re looking to
stay through the holiday, because
prices will be lower than starting
your stay on Wednesday. Avoid
checking in on Black Friday,
which can see prices higher than
on the holiday itself.
In some major cities with large
hotel inventories, however, you
can save up to 25 percent by
waiting to book until the last
minute, as long as you are flexible
on location and amenities, Berg
said.
In big cities, where hotels know
customers are looking for last-
Airbnb offers advice for hosts to
decide on a reasonable cleaning
fee, even suggesting they don9t
charge one at all. According to

10 percent of the total
reservation.

petition to fill inventory can yield
deals. <If you9re flexible, this is a
great way to save,= Berg said. <But
you do & need to be able to go
with whatever the lowest price is
available, which might not be on
the street you want or have a pool
or have a suite room available.=
A Christmas hotel will also
stretch your budget this year, be-
cause rates are up 14 percent from
2021, to an average of $202 per
night for a room, Hopper says.
Your hotel rate will vary signifi-
cantly based on when you check
in, however.
The best deals can be found by
arriving two or three days before
Christmas, according to Hopper.
If you can9t make that work,
checking in on Christmas Day can
save you 11 percent over Christ-
mas Eve.
Room prices are highest the
week between Christmas and
New Year9s, according to Hopper,
with prices rising about $30 per
night after Dec. 27. On Dec. 30 or
New Year9s Eve, a room will cost
you $50 per night more. Hopper
recommends making a hotel res-
ervation for Christmas by the first
week of December, unless you are
flexible to look for a last-minute
deal.
How to find cheap holiday
vacation rentals
Both demand and prices for
short-term vacation rentals
around the holidays are up from
last year, according to AirDNA,
which tracks the industry.
Thanksgiving and Christmas
week prices are up by 7 percent
and 9 percent, respectively, from
2021, according to AirDNA. That
tracks with a double-digit in-
crease in demand for rentals dur-
ing both holidays, with <guests

If you9re looking for a cheaper

cities and rural areas, which have
seen the least growth in price
since 2021, according to AirDNA.
However, larger rural properties
tend to charge more in the first
place.
By contrast, vacation rentals in
larger cities have seen the high-
est growth in prices since last
year, with rates increasing 13 per-
cent for Thanksgiving Day and
16 percent for Christmas Eve, per
AirDNA.
Thanksgiving and Christmas
cruises
Demand for cruises is <very,
very high= for the holiday period,
especially since cruise lines lifted
coronavirus restrictions in recent
months, said David Crooks, sen-
ior vice president of product and
operations for World Travel Hold-
ings.
<Mid-August, when restric-
tions were lifted, was the best
booking period we9ve seen in our
business in a couple of years,= he
said.
In most years, holiday cruises
are booked in June or July, but
many cruise travelers are booking
late this year because of pandem-
ic uncertainty, Crooks said. That
means some rooms are still avail-
able but are going fast.
The average price for a cruise
this November is up 20 percent
from 2019 and more than 10 per-
cent higher for Christmas, he
said.
With flight prices surging,
Crooks recommends looking for a
cruise that leaves from a port
within driving distance. Even
though many cruises go to the
Caribbean during the holiday sea-
son, they might leave from Mi-
ami, New York or Houston, he
said. On the West Coast, many
cruises leave from Los Angeles for
Mexico during the holidays.
Holiday gas prices
Gas prices have fallen signifi-
cantly since they peaked at more
than $5 this June. The national
average to fill up at the pump as of
Oct. 31 sat at $3.76 per gallon,
according to AAA. That price is 36

The case for slow travel

BY D ABIN H AN

After refraining from traveling because of the pandemic, I9m starting to exercise those muscles again.
This time around, my boyfriend and I decided to approach it in a different way. We wanted to come
back from a trip feeling relaxed and well-rested. We decided to take it slow, rather than being on the
move all day. In the end, we realized that this is a way of traveling that really appeals to us, and it left us
feeling excited for future trips.

THE COVID MONEY TRAIL

U.S. internet
aid program
riddled with
fraud, abuse
Deception, price hikes, speed
cuts common, The Post finds
BY T ONY R OMM

The complaints began pouring into

Washington this summer, the criticism
directed at Assurance Wireless, a little-
known company owned by the telecom
giant T-Mobile.
In Sun Valley, Calif., a local resident in
June claimed that Assurance Wireless
sent an agent to their mother9s door 4
and pushed her to sign up for mobile
internet funded by the federal govern-
ment even though she didn9t need it.
Another in Phoenixville, Pa., alleged a
month later that they received a <decep-
tive= offer in a text message 4 which
ultimately resulted in federal aid being
sent to Assurance Wireless for service
that the customer said they didn9t seek.
And time and again, a social worker in
South Boston claimed Assurance Wire-
less and other providers had enrolled
seniors in the government program un-
der dubious terms. Sounding off to the
Federal Communications Commission,
the nation9s chief telecom regulator, the
unnamed writer coupled their criticism
with a plea for help: <This is not an
isolated incident for me.=
At the height of the coronavirus pan-
demic, Congress chartered a first-of-its-
kind federal effort to help struggling
Americans who could not afford to lose
access to the internet. The generous aid
proved to be a godsend for millions of
low-income families, but it also sent the
nation9s telecom giants scrambling for
the new federal money 4 unleashing
price hikes, service cuts and fraud risks
that hurt customers and taxpayers alike.
The story of the government9s roughly
$17 billion effort to close the country9s
persistent digital divide is one of great
promise and costly peril. Under the
program, Washington offered to pay
stipends directly to internet providers
that lowered Americans9 monthly broad-
band bills 4 potentially to zero. But this
simple premise at times brought compli-
cated, undesirable results.

INTEREST FROM G1
The Fed9s policy rate
The first move happens when
the Fed raises its policy rate,
known as the federal funds rate.
This is the overnight rate banks
charge each other to borrow or
lend. When the economy could
use some extra juice, the Fed
lowers rates. To pump the brakes,
the Fed raises rates.
The Fed has hiked rates six
times since March, including this
week by 0.75 percentage points.
One more hike is planned before
the end of the year, and the
central bank has pledged to keep
rates high until inflation is back
down to normal levels.
The financial system
The financial system includes
everything from the stock market
to the banking sector to the won-
ky, technical products that make
up the plumbing of the global
economy. Changes in the federal
funds rate influence those mar-
kets in the United States and
abroad.
Bond traders, Wall Street
bankers and market analysts all
try to anticipate the Fed9s next
moves. That amplifies the effect
of interest rate increases and the
central bank9s public messaging.
Analysts might scrutinize Fed
speeches in hopes of gleaning any
hints on the exact size of the next
interest rate hike, so the markets
can start pricing in those moves
ahead of time. The value of some
financial instruments is also in-
fluenced by changes in the Fed9s
overnight rate.
Stocks and bonds
Central bankers aren9t specifi-
cally aiming to cool stock prices
or asset valuations. But their deci-
sions still sway the stock market.
When rates go up, it becomes
more expensive for businesses to
borrow money. That can hurt
future growth and weigh on a
company9s stock performance. If
enough companies see their stock
prices go down, the whole market
can sink. And as rates go up, risky
stocks can seem less attractive
because investors can make more
money in safer assets than they
can with low interest rates.
Meanwhile, bonds and interest
rates have an inverse relation-
ship. If interest rates go up, bond
prices fall, and vice versa. Many
bonds pay a fixed interest rate
that9s more desirable if interest
rates are going down, since de-
mand for bonds usually rises
then, along with their price.
Market conditions
Fed officials often say <tighter
financial conditions= aimed at
slowing down the economy are
among the intended goals of in-
terest rate hikes. That extends to
credit spreads, equity prices and
the strength of the U.S. dollar, all
of which respond to higher inter-

people clamored for new homes.
Now the Fed is trying to cool
buyer demand to get prices back
under control.
The Fed9s rate hikes are quickly
absorbed into the housing mar-
ket because they send mortgage
rates way up. In late March, the
average rate for a 30-year fixed
mortgage, the most popular
home loan in the United States,
was below 4 percent. In late Octo-
ber, it topped 7 percent.
And already, buyers are bow-
ing out of the market, more
homes are available for sale and
prices are starting to ease. But the
higher loan rates mean many
people 4 especially first-time
buyers who don9t have equity to
tap for purchases 4 still can9t
afford to buy homes, further
crowding the rental market.

Investing to grow
The exact interest rate a busi-
ness pays to borrow from a bank
will depend on the type of loan,
the company9s financial history
and its relationship with a lender.
But regardless of the specifics,
higher interest rates from the Fed
make borrowing costlier.
A farm may decide against
buying new equipment. A start-
up may institute a hiring freeze.
Businesses may be discouraged
from putting more money into
investments until they know how
they will fare if job growth stalls,
consumer spending falls or the
economy officially enters a reces-
sion.
Corporate profits
Higher interest rates make a
lot of routine business more ex-
pensive for firms that rely on lines
of credit or loans. Raising capital
also becomes harder when inter-
est rates go up. That can hold
back expectations for earnings
and future growth, or make inves-
tors lose confidence that a com-
pany can weather economic
stress.
Slimmer profit margins 4 or
no profits at all 4 might push a
company to reevaluate its budget,
possibly minimizing staff, cutting
back on inventory or shuttering
whole departments. It might
have no choice but to offset tight-
er margins by raising prices or
eliminating bonuses or salary
bumps.
Hiring
As interest rates climb, more
businesses might see a drop-off in
demand, or run out of ways to
offset their own rising prices, and
they may have no choice but to
slow hiring. Already, job postings
are falling, and big-name tech
companies such as Meta, Intel
and Google have implemented
temporary hiring freezes for cer-
tain roles.
Fed officials have warned that
their inflation fight will cause
economic pain. That toll could
start to show up in the labor
market. Projections released by
the Fed in September show that
officials think the unemployment
rate could rise to 4.4 percent next
year, up from the current level of
3.5 percent. Generally, a rise of
half a percentage point or more in
the unemployment rate has been
a sign of a recession.
Zoom out, and you9ll see how
the Fed aims to slow down the
economy from top to bottom.
It could be months before it9s
clear how the Fed9s moves have
affected the economy. By then,
though, it could be too late: A
growing number of economists
warn that the Fed risks overcor-
recting, and that its rate hikes are
quickly outrunning its ability to
see how its policies will work.
But for now, the Fed isn9t let-
ting up. What happens next 4 for

BY A NDREW V AN D AM
Since launching this column
in June, we9ve somehow attract-
ed what must be the smartest,
most hilarious readers on the
planet. You9ve sent in hundreds
of questions, and almost every
one of them provokes a thought,
a chortle or . . . further explora-
tion in the latest Data Dive!
Educating Congress
How many members of the
U.S. Congress have ever had a
college-level course in eco-
nomics?
4 Dick Dahn, Wilmington,
Del.
We won9t jump to conclu-
sions, but it seems possible that
our friend Dick may be trying to
cast aspersions on the economic
expertise of our honorable rep-
resentatives in Washington.
Alas, we can9t be sure how
many of the people serving un-
der the Capitol dome (where
there are typically 535 lawmak-
ers plus six nonvoting members)
ever took a college class in eco-
nomics. However, we can tell
you that 38 senators and House
members report having studied
some form of economics, typi-
cally as an undergraduate ma-
jor, according to fact sheets col-
lected by CQ. That makes econ
the third-most-popular field of
study reported by folks in Con-
gress, behind political science
(135) and history (58).
Our figures double- or triple-
count some politicians who re-
port multiple degrees. But they
probably are still undercounts
overall, as not every legislator
listed a field of study in the CQ
questionnaire. Meanwhile, eval-
uating the data required some
judgment calls. For example, in
our assessment of econ majors,
we did not count eight members
(all male, all Republican) who
studied agricultural economics.
We also left out Sen. Marsha
Blackburn (R-Tenn.), who stud-
ied home economics.
With prominent graduates in-
cluding Reps. Alexandria Oca-
sio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Jim Jor-
dan (R-Ohio), economics stands
out as one of the most biparti-
san fields of study, along with
journalism and education. Busi-
ness and STEM (science, tech-
nology, engineering and math)
tend to be more popular among
Republicans, while humanities
and politics-related majors tend
to be more common among
Democrats. Out of 10 legislators
who studied accounting, for ex-
ample, nine were Republicans.
Of the 10 who studied English,
eight were Democrats.
Not every lawmaker went to
college. Twenty-two members of
the House (and zero senators)
have only a high school diplo-
ma, according to the Govern-
ment Accountability Office.
That9s 6 percent of lawmakers 4
a significant reduction from the
1961-1962 legislative session,
when nearly a quarter of law-
makers had only high school di-
plomas.
At the other end of the educa-
tional spectrum, about a third of
House members and half of sen-
ators hold law degrees, GAO
found. Our analysis shows more
than 60 percent of those with a
juris doctor degree are Demo-
crats, while those with a master
of business administration are
more likely to be Republican.
Similarly, more than two-thirds
of the legislators with doctor-
ates are Democrats, but an even
bigger majority of those in Con-
gress who have medical degrees
are Republicans.
Zoomers doing nothing?
I read that 1 in 6 zoomers are
opting out of both work and col-
lege. Is that true?
4 Lori Montgomery, newspa-
per editor, Washington, D.C.
Technically, yes. But that sta-
tistic is not as remarkable as it
might appear.
The number comes from data
collected in March 2021, and it
counts zoomers who are unem-
ployed 4 a technical classifica-
tion that means they9re actively
looking for work. It strikes us as
a little unfair to say that some-
one9s doing nothing if they9re
sending out résumés and 4 per-
haps through no fault of their
own 4 striking out.
We9d put the real number not
at 1 in 6, or 16.7 percent, but at
11.9 percent. That9s based on
more recent data from the Bu-
reau of Labor Statistics that
goes through August of this year
and does not include unem-
ployed zoomers.
Allow us to note a few more
caveats.
First, this lounging-around-
not-working-or-studying phe-
nomenon is not specific to Gen
Z. We have data going back to
1984, when the youngest boom-
ers were about 20. Back then, an
average of 12.5 percent of the
youths were doing nothing. And
the number has stayed relatively
steady for Gen X, millennials
and zoomers.

The best question data can9t

What percentage of Ameri-
cans have never seen a cow in

causing disputes among my
group of friends for years now.
4 Daniel Pereira, Alexandria,
Va.
How can we answer that?!
Our friends at the National Ag-
ricultural Statistics Service say
they don9t track lifetime cow
sightings. However, there is a
rich tradition of mapping which
parts of America have more cat-
tle than people. (We9re broaden-
ing out from <cow= to <cattle,=
because we9re not confident
most Americans can distinguish
a cow from a heifer, steer or
bull.)
By our calculation, about
94 percent of Americans live in
places where humans outnum-
ber cattle. And a whopping
70 percent live in areas where
people outnumber cattle at least
10 to 1.
So, it seems likely that at least
a few of those folks have gone
their entire lives without seeing
cattle, right? Especially if they9re
among the 3 percent of Ameri-
cans age 2 or younger.

U.S. program to

plagued by fraud
BROADBAND FROM G1
Communications and Verizon
forced customers to accept price
increases or slower connection
speeds if they wanted to apply
federally funded discounts to
their bills, according to com-
plaints filed with the FCC and
later obtained by The Washing-
ton Post under federal open-
records laws.
The companies9 practices 4 on
top of the government9s flawed
application system 4 also left the
program at risk of fraud, accord-
ing to the FCC9s internal watch-
dog. Last year, for example, a
wide array of internet providers
including Dish Network, the
owner of Boost Mobile, adminis-
tered aid for roughly 200,000
people who claimed to have chil-
dren attending schools in high-
poverty areas. But tens of thou-
sands of these beneficiaries listed
schools on their applications that
were thousands of miles away
from their home addresses, The
Post found, while others named
no child at all. A subsequent
crackdown ultimately saw the
government cancel benefits for
nearly all these school-based sub-
scribers, including those with
likely legitimate claims.
The Biden administration
worked with Congress to improve
the program beginning in No-
vember 2021, but new trouble
soon emerged: Assurance Wire-
less along with other, lesser-
known internet providers started
showing up at Americans9 doors
unannounced, pushing subpar
service on unsuspecting families
and potentially signing up others
without their knowledge or per-
mission. Others who received aid
through another low-cost T-Mo-
bile brand, Metro by T-Mobile,
reported additional incidents 4
including months-long delays
that left them on the hook for
bills they could not afford.
Tara Darrow, a spokeswoman
for T-Mobile and its other brands,
Assurance Wireless and Metro,
said they took <took extraordi-
nary measures, closely following
FCC guidelines and using recom-
mended systems= to stand up
benefits in record time. She said
delays are uncommon, while
there is <no instance where a
customer could be enrolled in
these programs without their
permission.=
To date, more than 14 million
households have enrolled in the
federal broadband benefit sys-
tem, the government reports. But
the figure represents about a
quarter of the estimated 49 mil-
lion American households that
are eligible for help, according to
a Washington Post analysis. Tele-
com experts attribute at least
some of the gap to the multibil-
lion-dollar industry that admin-
isters the aid.
<What you9re seeing is not an
issue with the [federal] program,
it9s an issue with the broadband
economy ecosystem overall,= said
Brandon Forester, a national or-
ganizer at MediaJustice, an activ-
ist group that promotes online
access particularly for marginal-
ized groups.
<Their interest is not in serving
community members,= Forester
said of the internet providers.
<Their legal requirement is to
return profits to shareholders
and investors.=
This story is based on inter-
views with nearly three dozen
government officials, public-in-
terest advocates, nonprofit lead-
ers and internet subscribers,
most of whom spoke on the
condition of anonymity to reveal
private deliberations. The Post
also obtained data under the
Freedom of Information Act
about nearly 200,000 subscrib-
ers, along with thousands of con-
sumer complaints, including
those concerning Assurance
Wireless and other firms.
In written responses, spokes-
people for AT&T, Charter, Com-
cast, Dish and Verizon each called
the broadband benefits essential
in keeping Americans online.
They said they had been diligent
stewards of federal money and
noted that many of the discrepan-
cies stemmed from the govern-
ment9s own actions.
Paloma Perez, a spokeswoman
for the FCC, said that <investiga-
tions= are underway 4 and that
the commission is aggressively
keeping watch over federal aid.
On Capitol Hill, lawmakers
pledged to press the telecom in-
dustry over its tactics as well.
<Congress put strong consum-
er protections into the laws to
prevent these types of egregious
actions from occurring in the first
place, and these companies have
a lot to answer for,= said Rep.
Frank Pallone Jr. (D-N.J.), the
leader of the telecom-focused
House Energy and Commerce
Committee. <I intend to hold
them accountable.=
8Bait and switch9
For Cristina Pastrana, the pros-
pect of cheap broadband last year
came as a welcome surprise. The
43-year-old in Brooklyn had just
subscribed to Verizon fiber inter-
net that August, and she soon
looked to apply a government
discount toward her roughly $90
monthly bill.
Called the Emergency Broad-
band Benefit, the aid program
offered Americans up to $50 each
month toward internet services if
they received certain other gov-
ernment aid, including health
benefits under Medicaid or food
stamps, or if they were unem-
ployed. Congress approved the
initiative in December 2020, add-
ing it to the roughly $5 trillion in
federal relief money that helped
rescue the economy even while it
unleashed a wide array of waste,
fraud and abuse, as The Post has
found in its year-long investiga-
tion, the Covid Money Trail.
But Pastrana quickly discov-
ered that he help came with a
catch. In a recent interview, she
said Verizon called her after she
enrolled in the federal program
with an ultimatum: She could
keep the subsidy only if she
agreed to switch to a different
plan with lower speeds. Out of
work and facing financial hard-
ship, Pastrana fought to keep her
service and prevailed, though she
later described the situation as a
<bait and switch.=
<People are working from
home, they have their kids at
home, they can9t afford this 4
and you9re literally threatening to
remove the service or support,=
she said.
Many customers 4 with Veri-
zon and other carriers 4 com-
plained to the FCC about similar
threats and demands. Their frus-
trations reflected the program9s
signature challenge in its early
days, as telecom giants accepted
government subsidies only on the
condition that customers accept-
ed price hikes or service cuts.
<There9s a lot of mistrust [that]
there9s going to be a catch,= said
Evan Marwell, the executive di-
rector of EducationSuperHigh-
way, a nonprofit that has advocat-
ed for the program and helped
people enroll.
In creating the federal broad-
band benefits, Congress faced an
urgent task. Roughly one-quarter
of Americans do not subscribe to
high-speed home internet, ac-
cording to the Pew Research Cen-
ter, a digital divide made worse by
a pandemic that forced people to
work, learn and communicate
online. Lawmakers could have
put in place tough, strict rules,
requiring telecom providers to
maintain a minimum level of
service in exchange for federal
payments. But Democrats and
Republicans faced an onslaught
of industry lobbying, so they in-
stead chose to apply a light touch
in the waning days of the Trump
administration 4 and made com-
panies9 participation in the pro-
gram voluntary.
Telecom giants soon subjected
their customers to a patchwork of
inconsistent speeds and price
points. AT&T, for example, told
some subscribers with premium
service 4 ultrafast fiber connec-
tions with download speeds up to
one gigabit per second 4 that
they could receive the subsidy
only if they changed to service
that was one-third as fast with
possible monthly data caps, ac-
cording to complaints filed with
the FCC.
<Internet service providers
should not be allowed to ruin this
program,= a frustrated AT&T sub-
scriber from Orange, Calif., told
the agency in June 2021. The
comment, one of thousands ob-
tained from the FCC under the
Freedom of Information Act, re-
dacted filers9 names and other
details.
Some subscribers with Charter
and its internet offering, Spec-
trum, were stunned to read the
company9s fine print last year. To
receive federally funded dis-
counts, customers had to opt into
higher-priced service once the
government aid, totaling $3.2 bil-
lion, ran out 4 threatening them
with potential price spikes in the
future.
More recently, Charter has
paired federal broadband ben-
efits with its own promotional
discounts. The move has opened
the door for sizable price increas-
es on low-income Americans
once the company9s time-limited
assistance expires.
<I am trying to get help to
lower my bill temporarily be-

cause of the hardship COVID has
caused and why would I increase
my price plan to get a discount
and then end up paying the same
or more,= a customer from Fair-
field, Maine, told the FCC last
May.
Asked about the complaints,
AT&T spokesman Jim Greer said
the rush in Washington <present-
ed unique technical challenges,=
so the company could only apply
the benefit to select plans at first
because of its computer systems.
Cameron Blanchard, a spokes-
woman for Charter, said the com-
pany had been clear with its
customers 4 securing <signifi-
cant participation= in the pro-
gram while helping <millions of
families gain access= to afford-
able internet.
Only after a public outcry did
Verizon reverse course last May.
Rich Young, a spokesman, ac-
knowledged in a statement that
<some customers experienced ad-
ministrative issues during the
program9s initial rollout.= But he
added that <most if not all of
those problems have been recti-
fied.=
An 8entry point for fraud9
It did not seem particularly
unusual when 75 families in and
around Jamaica, Queens, each
signed up for federally funded
internet last fall. Like many cash-
starved Americans, the residents
of this New York City neighbor-
hood were eager to lower their
broadband bills 4 and they soon
put their up-to-$50 government
discounts toward service offered
by Boost Mobile, the low-cost
provider owned by Dish Network.
But the help proved short-
lived. Not even three months
after enrolling, nearly all of the
families had been removed from
the government program. Each
had claimed on their application
to have a child attending a high-
poverty school, and each had said
that school was roughly 4,000
miles away 4 in Anchorage and
other parts of Alaska 4 raising
the suspicions of federal watch-
dogs.
The details are laid bare in a
trove of new data obtained by The
Post under the Freedom of Infor-
mation Act. The records illustrate
how mishaps and missteps at the
start of the broadband program
4 from aggressive telecom sales
agents to faulty government tech-
nologies 4 may have put taxpayer
dollars and innocent Americans
at risk.
In setting up the benefits, the
government sought to ease the
burden on low-income families,
particularly those with students
studying at schools in high-pov-
erty areas. To qualify, parents had
to indicate the school they at-
tended on the federal application.
Nearly 200,000 people ulti-

mately obtained subsidies this
way by the end of 2021, according
to the data obtained by The Post.
But a significant portion man-
aged to enroll despite submitting
incomplete or irregular applica-
tions, the records show.
More than 143,000 of those
beneficiaries signed up for
monthly stipends on behalf of a
student whose name they never
supplied, the records show. Near-
ly 20,000 applicants 4 some in-
cluding children9s names, some
not 4 also named a school 50
miles or more away from their
home address, a distance that
federal investigators would later
identify as suspicious.
An AT&T subscriber in Clifton,
N.J., for example, qualified for a
federally funded discount by
claiming last October they had a
child who was receiving free or
reduced-price lunch 4 at a school
in Nampa, Idaho, more than
2,300 miles away. That same
month, in Philadelphia, a cus-
tomer of a smaller provider, Ex-
cess Telecom, obtained federal
benefits on behalf of a student
about 2,300 miles away in San
Diego.
But the most frequent issues
involved Dish and its low-cost
brand, Boost Mobile, which re-
ceived federal money on behalf of
more than 11,000 applicants who
claimed to have students attend-
ing far-flung schools. That in-

cluded more than 400 students
who were 1,000 miles away or
more.
In many cases, employees at
Boost Mobile stores 4 and agents
at other internet providers 4
helped people obtain the dis-
counts. Across the industry, com-
pany workers assisted at least
73,000 school-related subscribers
in enrolling for federal benefits,
the data show, meaning telecom
giants may have played some role
in overseeing the submission of
problematic applications.
Ted Wietecha, a spokesman for
Dish, said Boost Mobile services
are offered through <independ-
ent third-party retail outlets.= He
added that the company has
<worked to be a reliable partner=
with the FCC, and that its efforts
had resulted in <multiple process
improvements= in the benefit
program.
Jo Maney, a spokeswoman for
Excess Wireless, said the compa-
ny is <working diligently with
government officials and other
stakeholders to root out improp-
er activities.= Greer, the AT&T
spokesman, said the problem
stemmed from the federal gov-
ernment9s application system,
since the wireless giant <relied=
on that technology <to determine
whether a household is eligible.=
The suspected fraud under-
scored a conundrum for the
Biden administration as it sought
to thwart criminals while helping
low-income Americans access
aid. Too many regulatory restric-
tions would have deterred fami-
lies from signing up, while too
few threatened to invite abuse.
The same dynamic long
plagued a precursor program,
known as Lifeline, which
launched under President Ron-
ald Reagan to reduce needy
Americans9 home phone bills. As
that program expanded, the FCC
increasingly issued fines, particu-
larly in cases where agents signed
up people who didn9t qualify 4
and still collected commissions.
But some of the FCC9s recent
attempts under President Donald
Trump to fight Lifeline fraud
instead left the program in disre-
pair. The Trump-era FCC, over-
seen at the time by Chairman Ajit
Pai, never finished what was sup-
posed to be a national online
application for Lifeline benefits.
By the time Pai left office, the
system remained incomplete; it
hadn9t been integrated with
many state and federal benefit
systems. The deficiencies made it
hard and slow to use, and some-
times, inaccurate in rendering
decisions on who should qualify
for help.
The U.S. government still
turned to the same beleaguered
system, known as the National
Verifier, to administer the new
broadband program anyway. It
soon brought predictably trou-
bling results, as millions of Amer-
icans reported hours-long delays
and technical glitches. And the
system failed to catch obvious
signs of fraud, including families
that lived implausibly far from
schools where they claimed to
have students. Even into this
year, the verifier missed thou-
sands of instances in which new
subscribers enrolled in the ben-
efit system all using the name of
the same 4-year-old.
The threat of theft first
grabbed the attention of the
FCC9s inspector general last No-
vember. The watchdog warned
that high-poverty schools had
become an <entry point for
fraud.= And it rebuked telecom
giants 4 without naming any 4
for paying commissions to agents
that might have incentivized
problematic enrollments. The in-
spector general said the <abuses=
resembled those that <once
plagued the FCC9s Lifeline pro-
gram.=
In response, the FCC immedi-
ately tightened eligibility, then
required the roughly 200,000
school-related beneficiaries to
submit to another review. Yet few
enrollees completed the process:
About 9,500 people, or less than
5 percent, requalified last year,
according to data obtained by
The Post. FCC aides believe the
low response rate reflects the
reality that low-income families
are hard to reach, meaning thou-
sands of innocent Americans may
have lost benefits amid the crack-
down.
<What we don9t want to see is
consumers be prevented from
ever enrolling in a program again
when it was the provider that was
being misleading,= said Jenna
Leventoff, a senior policy counsel
for Public Knowledge, a public-
interest group.
The FCC9s inspector general,
however, said in a May 2022
report that it was <confident= it
had <saved the program millions
of dollars each month in wasteful
disbursements.=

miles outside of Chicago 4 and
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 6 , 2022
Anne Durot was not pleased.
A volunteer with Connect-
Waukegan, a local nonprofit, Du-
rot and her peers had spent
months trying to help low-in-
come residents obtain quality in-
ternet 4 high-speed connections,
funded by federal benefits, that
might satisfy families9 needs. At
times, though, the aid workers
found themselves struggling to
break through a wide array of
telecom providers that seemingly
hoped to make a buck.
So on a sunny day in Septem-
ber, Durot and her colleagues
strolled over to the table not far
from Harry Poe Manor, a low-in-
come housing community. They
confronted the man, whose tab-
lets had stickers identifying the
company providing them as Max-
sip, an obscure telecom firm.
Online, the company promised
prospective customers they could
obtain <free mobile internet serv-
ice,= along with a free tablet or
other device with 4G speeds, less
than the state-of-the-art 5G serv-
ice millions of Americans receive
through major providers.
<They9re sitting here in a pub-
lic park taking advantage of resi-
dents who want free phones,= she
said.
Israel Max, the chief executive
of Maxsip, said the company is
focused on helping <the people
who need it= and noted he would
investigate the matter. But the
situation in Waukegan still high-
lighted a broader challenge fac-
ing the federal government, as it
labors to keep close watch over an
aid program that has become a
business opportunity.
The latest trouble surfaced this
year, months after regulators at
the FCC and lawmakers on Capi-
tol Hill set their sights on recali-
brating the federal internet subsi-
dy. In November, President Biden
signed into law a sprawling
$1.2 trillion infrastructure pack-
age that replaced the Emergency
Broadband Benefit with a new
$14 billion initiative, called the
Affordable Connectivity Pro-
gram. Democrats and Republi-
cans maintained the spirit of the
original discount 4 though Con-
gress cut it to $30 per month
from $50 4 and they added new
rules to clamp down on some of
the worst abuses.
<In creating the Affordable
Connectivity Program, the Ad-
ministration worked with Demo-
crats and Republicans in Con-
gress to strengthen consumer
protections and crack down on
bad conduct by internet service
providers,= said Robyn Patterson,
a spokeswoman for the White
House.
The revisions provided a sus-
tained reprieve in places like
Jefferson County, Wash., near
Olympic National Park, where
internet options are limited and
bills can be <substantial,= said
Jamie Pena, who oversees digital
equity at the local library.
<I think it9s helping people get
connected since the pandemic,
even though we9ve reopened to
some extent,= he said.
But the tweaks also opened the
door for new challenges, particu-
larly involving low-cost carriers
that saw the revised federal pro-
gram as a fresh source of new
customers. Some firms dis-
patched a raft of sales agents in
Allentown, Pa., Austin, Cleveland
and other cities, troubling local
officials, who said they saw suspi-
cious marketing tactics on dis-
play.
Outside Chicago, Max said his
company sought to provide the
best tablets and service it could
given the meager size of the
federal benefit paid to providers.
<Our goal is to find solutions that
can help people use the program,=
he said.
But Max added that the opera-
tion relies on a network of mar-
keting firms, which hire their
own agents to set up tents and
help sign up low-income Ameri-
cans. They are supposed to regis-
ter with the government, identify
themselves clearly and provide
reliable information, but the
chief executive acknowledged not
everyone in the industry follows
the rules.
<I9m shocked to hear it, but I9m
not at the same time,= he said,
pledging he would look into the
matter.
The problem has been espe-
cially evident in the case of com-
panies that participate in the
Lifeline program. For these firms,
which are supposed to serve the
neediest Americans, the new
broadband subsidy has proved
lucrative: They could continue
offering cheap, government-sub-
sidized telephone service 4 and
then tack on federal payments
covering high-speed internet.
In other words, Lifeline pro-
viders can collect from Washing-
ton more than $40 every month
for each customer they enroll in
both programs. That could come
at the detriment of low-income
families, however, who may be
better served if they put their
benefits not toward a single mo-
bile phone but rather home inter-
net that provides access for an
entire family.
<They9re not breaking any
rules, but people don9t have all
. THE WASHINGTON POST
the information,= said Angela
Siefer, executive director of the
National Digital Inclusion Alli-
ance, a network of organizations
that aim to close the digital di-
vide.
In person, and through texts
and online advertisements, com-
panies including Assurance
Wireless allegedly pitched new
and existing customers on the
premise of free, unlimited phone
data 4 a massive upgrade from
the meager plans they previously
had received under the govern-
ment9s Lifeline program. Atop its
website, in smaller type, the com-
pany informs people that the
service is covered under the Af-
fordable Connectivity Program.
Some customers did not ap-
pear to notice the disclosure at
all, and later complained about
the T-Mobile-owned provider to
the FCC. The marketing tactics
also sparked more than just con-
fusion: Some low-income sub-
scribers told the FCC that they
had already put their monthly
broadband discounts to use on
another provider. Once they were
signed up with Assurance Wire-
less, their benefits were trans-
ferred 4 and suddenly they were
on the hook for another bill that
previously had been free.
Darrow, the T-Mobile spokes-
woman, said customers could not
have been enrolled against their
will in part because the company
<requires that they go through a
series of steps and certifications
in the application process.=
Even those who obtained the
service they wanted soon experi-
enced complications. Metro, an-
other T-Mobile subsidiary, took
months before it applied federal
benefits to some customers9 ac-
counts. In Gainesville, Ga., Wilm-
ington, Del., Knoxville, Tenn.,
South Richmond Hill, N.Y., Oche-
lata, Okla., Lake Mary, Fla., and
elsewhere, residents repeatedly
said Metro left their bills at full
price for multiple billing periods
4 cutting into their already cash-
strapped bank accounts.
<I am very poor and can9t
afford to pay them every month,=
a resident of Medford, Ore., told
the FCC this August, two months
after applying for federal aid that
never arrived.
In response, Darrow said T-
Mobile is not aware of any large-
scale benefit delays. But she said
delays are possible in the event of
application lapses, like discrep-
ancies in names and addresses, as
the company looks to protect the
program against fraud.
Across the telecom industry,
the incidents prompted the FCC9s
inspector general this March to
warn Lifeline providers against
engaging in <deceptive enroll-
ment practices.= The agency said
it had heard reports that <sev-
eral= companies were <mislead-
ing Lifeline consumers into en-
rolling for undesired service=
through the broadband benefit
program.
In one example, the watchdog
highlighted an unnamed firm
that had <forced= consumers to
obtain or transfer their monthly
internet subsidies away from
their existing provider to enroll
in Lifeline. The firm referenced in
the report was Q Link Wireless,
according to documents The Post
later obtained under FOIA from
the inspector general.
John Nakahata, a lawyer for Q
Link, described the issue in a
statement as a <web script error.=
He added that <no consumer was
enrolled in ACP as a result,= as
consent was collected later in the
application process. Nakahata
said the inspector general had
not contacted the company be-
fore publishing its report in
March.
Perez, the spokeswoman for
the FCC, said the agency9s en-
forcement bureau as a general
rule <follows up with consumer
complaints related to ACP pro-
viders, including Q Link, to ad-
dress whatever issue a consumer
faces.=
<The Enforcement Bureau has
been in touch with the OIG, and is
conducting its own investiga-
tions and assessing whether
there were any rule violations,=
she said.
In the face of these and other
mounting concerns, the White
House has sought to make it
easier for low-income Americans
to find and choose quality broad-
band plans. In May, Biden an-
nounced a partnership with 20 of
the country9s largest providers to
improve their low-cost offerings.
Between the announcement and
October, more than 2.5 million
people enrolled in the federal
benefit program, according to
administration officials.
Vice President Harris, mean-
while, personally hit the road,
touting the benefits of internet
access 4 and the importance of
affordable connectivity that some
Americans still have not been
able to obtain.
<We created this program be-
cause we know when we connect
folks with high-speed internet,=
she said, <it is also a connection to
opportunity 4 the opportunity to
live a healthier, happier and more
prosperous life and, importantly,
more affordable lives.=

Rental scams are rising. Here9s what to look out for.
Googling the address, verifying landlord9s identity are a couple of ways to avoid falling for fake listings
BY T ATUM H UNTER
When Tommy Stella and his
cousin found an affordable house
for rent in their area of Upstate
New York, it felt like they9d hit the
jackpot.
Their imaginations ran wild:
They9d have enough space for a
dedicated work-from-home of-
fice, they could have a video game
room and even dinner parties,
28-year-old Stella said.
Stella contacted the landlord
named on the listing and quickly
got an email back. <I am very new
in this landlord business,= the per-
son wrote, according to emails
Stella shared with The Washing-
ton Post. <We are not after the
money, but want it to be clean and
for you to take it as if it were
yours.=
The purported landlord, who
identified himself as a Catholic
missionary, sent over a list of
<application questions,= includ-
ing whether Stella agreed to send
a $1,000 security deposit before
moving in. No problem, Stella
responded, but could they tour
the house first?
Then he got suspicious. He
Googled the house9s address and
found it for sale on Zillow. His
<landlord= was a scammer who
had pulled the home9s photos and
details from a legitimate listing.
It wasn9t the only fake listing
Stella came across in his hunt for
an affordable place to live, he said.
Today, navigating real estate
scams is part of the process for
prospective renters looking for
homes online. And the sustained
spike in housing prices amid in-
flation and supply problems
makes people more vulnerable as
they scramble to find something
within their budgets, fraud ex-
perts say.
Average rent in the United
States grew 9.2 percent during the
three months ended June 30,
compared with the same period
last year, according to data from
commercial real estate company
MICHELLE SINGLETARY
Grandparents raising kids struggle to keep them fed
SINGLETARY FROM G1
Department data shows.
Food insecurity is far worse for
Americans who have taken over
the raising of their grandchildren
than those who haven9t,
according to a new report by
Generations United, an
organization dedicated to
helping what it calls
<grandfamilies.=
I interviewed Coleman and
Vickerson for a panel discussion
on food insecurity. And they both
illustrated one figure in the
Generations United report that
resonated with me, having been
raised by my grandmother from
the time I was 4, along with four
siblings.
Roughly a quarter of
grandparent-headed households
experienced food insecurity
between 2019 and 2020. That9s
more than twice the national
rate.
The stories the caregivers
shared in the report are
heartbreaking.
<Sometimes people would give
us food that had been in their
refrigerator for two weeks, but it
was better than nothing,= said a
Wyoming woman who raised two
grandchildren. <Someone gave us
a bag of oranges and we ate
nothing but oranges for four
EZ EE
CoStar. In large metropolitan ar-
eas, the pop in rent prices is even
more pronounced: The average
rent in Manhattan broke $5,000 a
month this year. When potential
renters come across an apartment
listed for a good price, they might
feel like the clock is ticking 4 and
that works in scammers9 favor,
said Kelly Merryman, president
and chief operating officer of digi-
tal safety company Aura.
<Scammers are feeding on peo-
ple who are anxious and want a
better deal,= Merryman said.
Take Kate Coley, who in the
summer of 2020 was desperate to
find a place of her own after
hunkering down at her parents9
house during the early months of
the pandemic. The new college
graduate found an apartment in
the exact Chicago neighborhood
she wanted listed on a real-estate
rental site for a good price. When
the <landlord= said she9d need to
send her deposit and the first
month9s rent right away because
demand for the unit was so high,
her excitement won out.
She lost around $2,000.
<I thought I was smart enough
to know the difference between a
real apartment and a scam apart-
ment,= Coley said.
Nobody9s safe from real estate
scams. But with a few safeguards,
you can sidestep online fraudsters
as you look for your next place to
live.
Google the address
If you punch the unit9s address
into a search engine, you9ll prob-
ably see listings on other real
estate sites. Check to see if the
landlord or real estate agent9s
name matches on each one. (If it
doesn9t, your <landlord= might be
spoofing a legitimate listing.)
If you9re looking at a unit for
rent and see it listed for sale on a
different site, that9s also a red flag.
Verify the lister9s identity
If you9re dealing with a land-
lord, check for proof they own the
days.=
One finding, in particular,
stood out: In 2019, only
42 percent of low-income,
grandparent-headed households
with grandchildren younger than
18 participated in the USDA9s
Supplemental Nutrition
Assistance Program, or SNAP.
There are a lot of reasons these
families don9t seek those benefits.
Grandparents who responsibly
accumulated assets don9t always
meet the low-income eligibility in
their state to qualify for SNAP.
About 46 percent of
grandparents responsible for
raising their grandchildren are
60 or older.
<Children shouldn9t go hungry
because their caregivers were
careful financially,= said Donna
Butts, executive director of
Generations United.
One way to improve access to
assistance would be to create a
<child-only= SNAP benefit based
on the needs of the child as
opposed to household income,
the report recommended.
Grandparents often aren9t
aware they qualify for federal
food assistance, because they
mistakenly believe they must
have legal custody of the children
to qualify.
<I hear from the grandfamily
caregivers that they don9t want to

property by contacting the local
tax assessor9s office or county
clerk.
If the unit was listed by a real
estate agent or property manager,
ask which company they work for
and look for their name and im-
age on that company9s website.
The agent or company should
have online reviews, as well. If
you9re feeling anxious, feel free to
contact the company and ask if
the agent or manager works there.
And you can always look up some-
one9s real estate license by asking
for their license number and cross
checking with your state9s licens-
ing authority. (To find mine, for
instance, I searched online for
<California real estate licenses.=)
Remember: Landlords and
agents aren9t the only ones al-
lowed to ask questions and do
some digging.
<You have rights, too,= Merry-
man said. <You don9t have to just
follow what they9re asking. You
can ask questions back, and you
should.=
Beware a rushed timeline
If a landlord is pressuring you
to submit a deposit or share per-
sonal information like a bank
statement or Social Security num-
ber before you9ve seen the unit, go
ahead and raise an eyebrow, Mer-
ryman said. Even if the landlord
claims they must check that
you9re a qualified renter before
meeting with you, Aura hears
from people who submit those
details then get ghosted, she said,
and scammers can use that infor-
mation for further fraud or identi-
ty theft.
If possible, view the unit in
person
Fraudsters take advantage of
internet anonymity. But the pay-
off from real estate scams is high,
so some will risk venturing into
the real world.
<Scammers are willing to spend
quite a bit of effort in many cases
to make the scam very convinc-
be a part of 8the system,9 = Keith
Lowhorne, vice president of
kinship with the Alabama Foster
and Adoptive Parents
Association, said in the report.
<They worry that applying for
food and nutrition programs
would cause someone to come
and take the children away if they
don9t have legal custody, or go
after the parents for child
support, which would cause
problems.=
Unlike many other public
benefit programs, federal
nutrition programs such as SNAP
don9t require caregivers to obtain
legal custody to receive aid.
The Biden administration held
a summit on combating hunger
and later released a 44-page
report that called for, among
other things, improving outreach
and countering misconceptions
about the government9s food
programs.
<We need to improve outreach
for existing federal nutrition
programs like SNAP and to better
reach more grandfamilies and
connect them to benefits that
they9re eligible for and should be
receiving,= said Alexandra
Ashbrook, director of root causes
and specific populations at the
Food Research and Action
Center, which contributed data to
the report.
G5
ing, going so far as meeting you at
the property in some cases,= said
Kevin Roundy, a fraud researcher
at the cybersecurity company
NortonLifeLock.
Always meet agents or land-
lords at the unit, and make sure
they have a key to get inside.
(Chatting outside on the sidewalk
doesn9t cut it.) Feel free to ask for
their license plate number or ID
to further verify who they are,
Roundy said.
If you live out of town and can9t
travel to tour a property, ask for a
tour over video call and take extra
steps to verify the landlord or
agent9s identity. Cross-check the
listing you found with a trustwor-
thy multiple listing service (MLS)
directory, advised Deanne Ryma-
rowicz, associate counsel at the
National Association of Realtors.
(I searched for <San Francisco
MLS.=) A legitimate real estate
agent should be able to send you a
PDF of the full MLS listing, which
is only available to real estate
professionals, Rymarowicz said.
Think before you Zelle
Many property managers use
online portals to process pay-
ments, so if a manager or agent is
asking you to send money to their
personal Venmo or Zelle account,
it9s worth asking some extra ques-
tions, according to Rymarowicz.
The most secure way to send
money in this case is probably
through a direct deposit in which
the recipient provides their ac-
count number. Writing a personal
check also lends some extra secu-
rity, as you can call your bank and
cancel the check if your research
into the lister9s identity brings up
any concerns.
Remember: Zelle and other
money-sending apps without pay-
ment protection work just like
cash 4 once you send it, it9s gone.
(PayPal and Venmo offer payment
protection for transactions you
designate as <good and services,=
but that doesn9t extend to real
estate.)
But there9s another reason
families don9t apply for SNAP
benefits: embarrassment.
My grandmother, Big Mama,
hated using food stamps, what
SNAP was previously called. It
wasn9t her fault my parents failed
at parenting. Nonetheless, she
felt shame in asking for help and
would try to shop at times when
she was less likely to see someone
she knew.
She would try to slip the food
stamps to the cashier without
anyone in line behind her
noticing. But even as a child, I
could see the judgmental glares
she received.
Eventually, she stopped
reapplying for food stamps. The
stigma was just too much for her.
Somehow she made do with the
money she had.
Whenever you may be tempted
to judge families facing food
insecurity and their need for
assistance, think about Coleman
and her strong cups of coffee.

AN ADVERTISING SUPPLEMENT TO THE WASHINGTON POST

ISO: A place to grow, learn, lead and succeed

At some companies, the culture is such that new, young
employees are expected to remain quiet for months or
even years. Learning, leading and succeeding are not
part of the plan. What if you had a job where leaders
were invested in your success and ready to listen to your
ideas even in the early days4a job where you were set
up to succeed?
<My entry-level position doesn9t feel very entry-level,=
said Rose Rojas, 28, a human resources coordinator at
The MIL Corporation for a little over a year. At previous
jobs, Rojas felt she wasn9t taken seriously because of her
age. At MIL, even the youngest, newest employees are
encouraged to share their ideas and leaders are open to
trying out those ideas.
<At other jobs [managers] have somehow always found
a way to remind me that it is an entry-level position
and just that,= she said. <People would hear me but
wouldn9t really listen4as if my age deûned my worth.
But at MIL, that feeling dissipated when my peers
and upper management would acknowledge me and
actually listen.=
MIL recognizes that new generations bring new
approaches and ideas to the workforce, said Marisa

Daley, chief operating ofûcer. Daley said she joined the
workforce when the expectation was for new hires
to remain in the background until they accumulated
experience. But fresh graduates have been exposed
to leading-edge technology and have much to offer,
Daley said.
<Forcing your younger generation of employees to 8get
in line9 and 8learn by watching others9 curtails critical
thought patterns of innovation and creativity,=
Daley said. <Their ability to observe arcane practices
and suggest improvements through automation,
digitization, etcetera should be encouraged.
MIL carries this philosophy.=
Informal mentoring already happens organically at MIL,
Daley said. Recently, MIL began a formal mentoring
program as a pilot project in its Charleston, S.C.
market. Based on overwhelmingly positive response,
the company is considering rolling the program out <They totally gave me the wheel to drive that initiative,= <During my one-on-ones with my manager, she always

SAMURAI SUDOKU (c) www.djape.net

How to Play
The rules of Samurai Sudoku are the same as in the popular
Sudoku puzzles that appear in the daily comics section.
As with standard Sudoku, the Samurai version requires no math,
just logic, reasoning ... and an iron will. The goal is to fill in each
column, row and 3X3 box with the digits 1 through 9 without
repeating any. The twist in Samurai Sudoku is that the digits that
appear in the overlapping boxes must work for both puzzles.
A piece of advice to get you started: Don9t focus completely on
one grid at a time. Keep the whole puzzle in mind as you go, because
filling in a number in one grid could give you clues to another. What9s
important to understand is this: Each Samurai puzzle is ONE puzzle,
not five separate Sudoku puzzles that just overlap each other.
Occasionally people claim that, for example, the "bottom right" 9X9
puzzle had more than one solution. Well, yes it may, but the entire
puzzle can be solved in only one way. Never resort to guessing! For
more tips, go to http://www.djape.net/sudoku/wp/?p=144.
