From a critical opinion piece by S.H. Jacobs in the newsletter Lightening Up, published August 13, 2026, about Amy Klobuchar's run for Minnesota governor. This passage is about her record on rural broadband funding.
S.H. Jacobs
I do deep dives and superficial swims into my Midwest, American culture. I wish to understand the world, but I laugh at the long history of human folly. Come with me, all you imperfect souls, and laugh at our cultural landscape as we lighten up!
