Block Blanche because he negotiated self-dealing IRS gift for Trump, fired court appointed US attorneys, bragged about cleaning house of 200 DOJ employees who worked on cases involving Trump & J6, botched the Epstein case, oversaw cases targeting Trump’s perceived enemies, welcomes Trump’s control.

Thanks to everyone who came out to my book talk about The Fix last night in Marquette. MI. Encouraging to see how many people in the UP yearn for good government.
Greetings from Marquette, Michigan, where the air is usually fresh and clear. Wildfire smog is a glimpse of our future, unless we get serious about protecting our climate.
On my way to Marquette for tomorrow’s book talk. Spooky day on the Mackinac Bridge with smoke from Canadian wildfires.
It’s Wednesday, so here is a new episode of #SistersSidebar, where we qnswer your questions. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...
Please join me in northern Michigan and the UP for conversations about my new book, The Fix. Tonight at the spectacular Opera House in Traverse City www.barbaramcquade.com/tour/barbara... and Thursday in Marquette at the fantastic Peter White Public Library www.keepitintheup.com/event/pwpl-p...
PNC in Pittsburgh is a very nice ballpark. So is Oracle Park in San Francisco. I’m not much for stadium food, but I am a sucker for the helmet sundae.
My heart belongs to Comerica, but PNC Park in Pittsburgh is quite nice.
Had a chance to visit Citi Field, Citizens Bank Ballpark, and Petco Park this summer, bringing my total @MLB parks visited to 43. (I started in the 1970s, so I had to hit some cities twice!) Still need ATL, KC, STL, ARI. ⚾️🧢🌭🇺🇸🏟️
In new episode of #SistersInLaw, we share our advice for the Senate for this week’s AG confirmation hearings of Todd Blanche. Slush fund, Epstein, and DOJ independence top our list. You can listen here. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...
Went to see the red hot Detroit @Tigers win again last night, and caught a ball. Great night all around! (Didn’t even have to wrestle any toddlers to get it, though I was prepared to do so if necessary.)
It’s Wednesday, and #SistersSidebar is here to answer your questions. You can find us here. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...
No place better than northern Michigan in the summer. Please join me for talks about my new book, The Fix, in Traverse City on July 13 nationalwritersseries.org/author-event... And Marquette in the UP on July 16. events.getlocalhop.com/kulisheck-sp...
#JusticeInMotion launches this week! Judges are meeting Americans outside courthouses AND in the community to talk about how the #RuleofLaw must ensure equal justice and fairness in everyday American life. Follow their journey in: PA ➡️ OH ➡️ MI. 👉 justiceinmotion.us
New #SistersInLaw is here. It’s challenging to celebrate July 4 with a tyrant in the White House, but the promise of America can inspire us to take back our democracy. As the Declaration of Independence says, “a Tyrant is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.” podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...
Happy Independence Day. Love of country means defending our democracy and working toward a more perfect union.
I was in San Francisco earlier in the week. Had a great time at the Commonwealth Club.
It’s Wednesday, and the sisters are here for you to answer your questions. You can listen here. #SisterInLaw podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...

I wondered why Seattle has all these frosted glass panels over the sidewalks. And then it started to rain. 💡
