By Jack Sheehan| The Baffler Verified Word Factory W o r dF a c t o r y Every Irish person abroad has experienced a moment of excited recognition from a well-meaning local. Ah, they say. You must love this famous Irish stalwart: U2, The Cranberries, Colin Farrell, Paul Mescal, or—for a grim period—convicted sex offender Conor McGregor. Today, the reference supplied by middle-brow Americans is more likely to be Patrick Radden Keefe’s 2019 history of the Troubles, Say Nothing: A True Story of Murder and Memory in Northern Ireland.
By Jack Sheehan| The Baffler Verified On February 3 of this year, Sinn Féin’s Michelle O’Neill became first minister of Northern Ireland. This wasn’t supposed to happen. The six-county statelet of two-million, created in the 1921 partition of Ireland, was specifically designed—to paraphrase one of its founders—as a Protestant state for a Protestant people, an instrument of permanent rule by a unionist political elite loyal to the British crown. More loyal, indeed, than most people on the mainland itself.
By Jack Sheehan| Irish Times Verified What a difference a couple of weeks makes. Just a month ago, the Democratic Party was in total crisis, saddled with a candidate clearly unfit for a second term who was refusing to step aside. Donald Trump was riding high, with polls showing a clear lead for him in all the necessary states. Times have changed. The Democrats have a new candidate, Vice-president Kamala Harris, and now a running mate, Minnesota governor Tim Walz.
