Chasten and I are relieved that Governor Shapiro and his family are safe. While we wait to learn more, this much is clear: the targeting of a public official and his family - especially a prominent Jewish official on a major Jewish holiday - is unconscionable and has no place in our country.

Overlaid on the image is white text that reads: "Let's start with a 200% tariff on podcast equipment for straight men."
