Thank you for your efforts to suggest areas of improvement. I’m reasonably certain there are many more.

Perhaps you should consider following in the footsteps of your esteemed namesake.

I’m proud to live in Maryland and feel blessed that in these days of Trump, MAGA hoodlums and Elon Musk (who should be deported along with his money) we have a man of the caliber of Wes Moore in the Governor’s Mansion. I wish the editorial staff of the Spy would give us a break from Clayton Mitchel for a while at least.

It is unfortunate that Mr. Mitchell’s recommendations will be ignored by the government of Maryland. I understand that Mr. Musk’s assignment in federal efficiencies is to end in 2026. Perhaps he could spare a couple of weeks providing similar efforts in Maryland at the end of his gig in Washington.
