‘Veeps Stick Together’: Joe Biden Has An Important Message For Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
As far as Joe Biden is concerned, it doesn’t matter whether you only played a vice president on TV or actually woke up next to the President of the United States every morning for eight years (that’s how it works, right?). If you’re a veep, you’re a veep and that’s why he’s not staying silent about Julia Louis-Dreyfus’ announcement, made Thursday on Twitter, that she has been diagnosed with breast cancer.

With friends like this, who needs political heroes? Let’s just hope Mike Pence doesn’t embarrass himself by trying to get in on the love fest.

Why I became the Forward’s editor-in-chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
