At a time when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction. But not Jack Smith. Kudos to him for continuing to be a much needed voice of clarity.

Today is the first Wednesday of the month so it is FREE ENTRY to many heritage sites around Ireland. How about a trip to visit the incredible megalithic cemetery of Carrowmore in County Sligo, with its newly upgraded visitor centre? #Ireland #SpéirGhorm #DiscoverIreland #IrelandTravel
Tomb 7 at Carrowmore, in County Sligo, Ireland. This megalithic tomb consists of a kerb of small boulders surrounding a dolmen type chamber – where a capstone is supported by upright boulders. The distinctive table-like mountain of Knocknarea is in the background, with the enormous cairn known as Queen Medb's Grave just about visible as a bump on the flat summit.
