Nothing like having your name in the mini crossword to hear from amazing people I haven’t talked with in a while (who I now know are people who do the mini crossword first thing in the am and it makes me love them more)

I was so stoked that I *knew* this one without even having to think!!

You just broke my heart seeing you breakdown on TV. My heart is also hurting seeing no one in position of power are addressing this issue. I have a 5 year old grandson and am so scared for him and my daughter. She was in tears all day today watching this tragedy unfold. Sending you a very big hug.

You could save posting solutions for the mini crossword of THE day until THE NEXT DAY. Just sayin'.

So glad to see your name in the Mini. Easy clue for me since I’m a big fan and regular watcher of The Briefing. You were also the best White House Press Secretary in my lifetime (and I’ve seen quite a few). Looking forward to seeing you in the Sunday NY Times Crossword Puzzle. 😎

Jen, remember Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act provided funds giving us a record number of officers. That led to much of the decrease in crime we're seeing as the localities had funds for the community projects and the officers. Trump pulled that funding. Remember to mention the funding, please!

I was doing the NYT mini until they stopped making it free. It was fun while it lasted. 🙂

I meant to share it with you when I did it about 1 AM this morning and then forgot.

Sweetie, I'm watching your show & I feel so badly for you! I didn't have to grow up with gun violence & neither did my kids. But my recent college grad granddaughter, her elementary school aged half brother & sister and my grandson & granddaughter in high school have to bcuz GQP loves guns NOT kids.

Sen. Warren is a bullshit artist, she let venture capitalists run a public option insurer, squander $100M, and now she won’t hear members’ concerns or constituents’ complaints about Commonwealth Care Alliance’s collapse. #MassHealth #Accountability

I appreciate you on so many levels. But thanks to you, I beat my husband in the mini because he put a T instead of an S in your name!

You’re doing a great job Jen. It’s comforting seeing your face at night - it helps with the nightmare we’re going through now …

Yup, that was an easy (and well-deserved) one!
