“First Read” on Columbus Day:

*** Indigenous People’s Day? The Beltway loves to examine the image of living politicians and leaders but let’s take a step back and ask ourselves if anyone has had a worst 30 years in American history than Christopher Columbus?

Speaking of Columbus Day, Washington still celebrates it, sort of, by not really working and the President, with the family home from school, has no public events.
