…I love seeing the "family photo" of the participants in the G7 but was disappointed that ADM was the only woman in the group. It's not your fault but I'd love to see more women in charge.

…Biarritz looks lovely. I hope you take a minute to enjoy the beauty of the place. Maybe go out to the beach to see the surfers or go to the new Cité de l'Océan et du Surf where you could do a bunch of virtual reality activities to learn more about the ocean. I expect that it would help you understand why the G7 folk are worried about plastics in the ocean. It would be well worth the visit.

…The plenary meeting should be interesting…. I assume you'll sit next to SA and as far away from JPJT as you can get. Please remember my mother's advice, "if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all."

… I'm sure you'll have fun giving Bob Cousy his Presidential Medal of Freedom today. He sounds like your kind of guy - a renegade, playing basketball with a dramatic flair, razzle, dazzle - tricky behind the back passes - defying authorities by playing his own way…

…Reading about him in today's NYT reminds me that he operates like so many of the adolescent boys I used to teach, acting out to get attention. The NYT says that he has a "singular grip" on your immigration policy and that he is your " ideological chaperone." I hope you will find some kinder, gentler people to inform your thinking about immigration. ..

…Speaking of Bibi, he's got his hands full trying to figure out what to do with Ayelet Shaked (AS), the new "Iron Woman" who is leading the "United Right" Zionist coalition. Do you know about her? I find it fascinating that a secular woman is representing orthodox Jews who prefer to segregate the sexes. Some people think she could become the PM….

 I am back home and thinking about what kind of fresh start I want to have. Spending less time on these letters comes to mind, but I'm not sure that's possible. I might be addicted to this convoluted process of trying to offer you loving advice.

Tell Stephen Miller and Kenneth T. Cuccinelli II to back off of the plan to withhold Green Cards from poor folks. Those guys are misguided and don't realize that many of the patient and tender folk providing elder care in this country will be hurt by this. Lots of families depend on them to provide help for their frail loved ones. I am sure you don't want those old folks to have to suffer because their helpers decide to go home.  

Please help me understand the logic in arresting people who have been in the country for several years, paying taxes and working hard at an unpleasant job. They aren't hurting anyone. … It seems only fair to raid every poultry plant, so please make sure that the Perdue plants get hit sometime soon.

Another of these amazing inventions with the potential to cause great harm… I am sure you will want to give Andrew Wheeler a call and make sure that the EPA gets busy on figuring out what to do about regulating PFAs. GA and several other states are way out ahead of them on this, and it's time to show some leadership so that we can all get on the same page.
