During COVID-19, I’ve put my excess time at home to good use and started writing as a contributor for one of my favorite publications, The Washington Examiner (WEX for short).
I love WEX because they make room for divergent opinions, like mine, and allow writers to put a fun spin on stories.
If you want the archive, head here. Otherwise, here are some of my favorites.

It's time to hold 'Karens' who endanger innocent black men accountable
