First going tohe jackson bodegas life. When she worked as a newspaper columnist and writer and met and married future president john f. Kennedy. Welcome. Mr. Anthony thank you. I appreciate so much being able to join the White House Historical association today and very honored to give you a little bit of a background about Florence Harding and the book. I have to tell you, as is often said, a parent should not really have, per se, a favorite child, and i think an author perhaps should not have a favorite book. But i will say that the research of this book and then the unique promotion that i did for the book will always be a very important part of my life. I started writing this book and researching this book at a time when the sun was just setting on the last generation of people who knew the hardings firsthand.

The president s decision to release this illegal memo now appears designed to inflict maximum damage to the accuracy of the ongoing 2020 census. In just two weeks, the Census Bureau will start visiting the homes of millions of people who have not yet responded to the census. The president s latest attack on immigrants could sew fear and confusion in communities across the country, and could lead many people to decide not to participate. This will hurt communities that are already undercounted, underrepresented, and underfunded.
